“By GIVING to others, instead of GETTING, we can still find we have everything we need in Christ.”

Trust in God’s timing. It’s better to have to wait a while and have things fall into place then to rush into something and have things fall apart.

Don’t say God is silent when your Bible is closed. Open it and read it. God will speak.

First of all, it has gone past God and past Christ right through to me. If it has come that far.

There is no circumstance, no trouble, no testing, that can ever touch me until, first of all, it has gone past God and past Christ, right through to me.

Scripture is so counter culture. Christ was counter culture. It’s not like we’re supposed to be weird or anything, but as we grow closer to Christ.

He deeper and more staggering can be his collapse. There is never a day in any man’s life but that he is dependent upon the grace of God for power and the blood of Jesus for cleansing.

I am eternally secure. I gave my heart to Christ and that gift of salvation is irrevocable.

I think we as believers can be secure in our relationship with Christ. I’m not saying that sin isn’t sin.

There wasn’t reparative therapy in Corinth. So in this passage I think people came to Christ and experienced a new life in him apart from the therapeutic process.

I believe in sanctification at the point of salvation. That doesn’t mean that we don’t continue to mature as believers in Christ. But I believe that we are justified and we are sanctified.
