As We Become Soft And Lazy In

Jesus Did Not Die Just To Save Us From The Penalty Of Sin, Nor Even Just To Make Us Holy In Our Standing Before God. He Died To Purify For Himself A People Eager To Obey Him, A People Eager To Be Transformed Into His Likeness.

We Must Allow The Bible To Say What Is Says, Not What We Think It Ought To Say.

Faith Enables Us To Obey When Obedience Is Costly Or Seems Unreasonable To The Natural Mind.

Nothing Cuts The Nerve Of The Desire To Pursue Holiness As Much As A Sense Of Guilt. On The Contrary, Nothing So Motivates Us To Deal With Sin In Our Lives As Does The Understanding And Application Of The Two Truth That Our Sins Are Forgiven And The Dominion Of Sin Is Broken Because Of Our Union With Christ.

In A Sermon Entitled “god's Providence,” C. H. Spurgeon Said, “napoleon Once Heard It Said, That Man Proposes And God Disposes. 'ah,' Said Napoleon, 'but I Propose And Dispose Too.' How Do You Think He Proposed And Disposed? He Proposed To Go And Take Russia; He Proposed To Make All Europe His. He Proposed To Destroy That Power, And How Did He Come Back Again? How Had He Disposed It? He Came Back Solitary And Alone, His Mighty Army Perished And Wasted, Having Well-nigh Eaten And Devoured One Another Through Hunger. Man Proposes And God Disposes.
