Some people try to split hairs when the hairs aren t even there . People who are snobbish because of their wealth really in their minds are still poor, insecure, and don t know how to handle their situation. The things that really matter are the things that don t have to do with matter . If we have repented of a sin, we will not be offended if that particular sin is preached against. If you take pride in saying what you think, you better think before you say it.
Religious convictions coupled with pride and arrogance makes for an irreligious situation.
There is no way that we can lift people unless we come down to their level. Truth is so valuable and important that it does not need to be artificially embellished with high sounding words, but simply spoken and accepted for what it is. A paranoid preoccupation with prophecy for the purpose of trying to divine the future instead of trusting in God amounts to witchcraft. Christ is the solid foundation on which to build, but this great truth is meaningless unless we do just that. There are two things I have found it hard for people to see, their own faults and the faults of their children.
