Preachers are not called to make people happy but to make people holy. There is no heavier load than a chip on the shoulder. Sometimes it takes more courage to resist than it does to go ahead. Some people are like blisters. Let us pray for our churches.
Men do evil by failing to do well.
Christ has many lovers of His crown, but few bearers of His cross. Almost saved will be altogether lost. God's patience is lasting, but not everlasting. It is the Devil's masterpiece to make us think well of ourselves. Not everyone who looks like a Christian lives like a Christian.
