Miscellaneous Quote
Jesus is the Victor! – Basilea Schlink
Do not be lazy. Run each day’s race with all your might, so that at the end you will receive the victory wreath from God. Keep on running even when you have had a fall. The victory wreath is won by him who does not stay down, but always gets up again, grasps the banner of faith and keeps on running in the assurance that Jesus is Victor.
– Basilea Schlink –
The Love of God – John Preston
The love of God is peculiarly the work of the Holy Ghost … Therefore the way to get it is earnestly to pray. … We are no more able to love the Lord than cold water is able to heat itself … so the Holy Ghost must breed that fire of love in us, it must be kindled from heaven, or else we shall never have it.
– John Preston –

The Good We Can All Do – John Reynolds
O what a world of good may we all do, if we had the true zeal of God! How many occasions and opportunities are put into our hands every day …which, if we were acted by this principle, would render us great benefactors to mankind, by discouraging vice and impiety, and promoting virtue and goodness in the world?

Not Surprised in These Days – Andrew Strom
Now, it should not surprise us that there are strong deceptions or “powerful delusions” around today, for this is exactly what the Scriptures predict will happen. All the way through the New Testament we are warned of these days—over and over again.

Gratitude – Ravi Zacharias
“Gratitude” comes from the same word as freedom (gratis = free). Gratitude is the freeing expression of a free heart toward one who freely gave.

What Do You Believe … and Why? – Pamela Christian
Unless we examine what we believe and why we believe it, we can easily be deceived and not know it.
– Pamela Christian –
Rooting Out Deceptions – Andrew Strom
Many deceptions only appeal to us because there is something inside us that “wants” to believe them. They are seductive because of darkness and wrong motives in our own lives. We must search our hearts and root these out.
