We Belittle God When We Go Through

The Infinite Reservoir Of Future Grace Is Flowing Back Through The Present Into The Ever-growing Pool Of Past Grace. The Inexhaustible Reservoir Is Invisible Except Through The Promises. But The Ever-enlarging Pool Of Past Grace Is Visible; And God Means For The Certainty And Beauty And Depth To Strengthen Our Faith In Future Grace.

Christ Did Not Die To Forgive Sinners Who Go On Treasuring Anything Above Seeing And Savoring God. And People Who Would Be Happy In Heaven If Christ Were Not There, Will Not Be There. The Gospel Is Not A Way To Get People To Heaven; It Is A Way To Get People To God. It's A Way Of Overcoming Every Obstacle To Everlasting Joy In God. If We Don't Want God Above All Things, We Have Not Been Converted By The Gospel.

The Gospel Of God And The Love Of God Are Expressed Finally And Fully In God's Gift Of Himself For Our Everlasting Pleasure. "in Your Presence There Is Fullness Of Joy; At Your Right Hand Are Pleasures Forevermore."

Does Christ Get A Good Reputation Because Of The Way We Live? Is The Excellence Of Christ Displayed In Our Lives? That Should Matter To Us, Not Whether We Ourselves Are Praised.

The Great Barrier To Worship Among God's People Is Not That We Are Always Seeking Our Own Satisfaction, But That Our Seeking Is So Weak And Half-hearted That We Settle For Little Sips At Broken Cisterns When The Fountain Of Life Is Just Over The Next Hill.
