From a secular point of view, death is a good motivator to live. However, from a Christian’s point of view, [Jesus’] life is a good motivator to lay down one’s life.

Miscellaneous Quote
Heroism and Bravery – Heraclitus
Out of every one hundred men, ten shouldn’t even be there, eighty are just targets, nine are the real fighters, and we are lucky to have them, for they make the battle. Ah, but the one, one is a warrior, and he will bring the others back.
– Heraclitus –
Jesus is the Key, the Mediator, and the Intercessor – Mendell Taylor
The most uncontrollable and unchanging thing on earth is the base element in human nature. Though advancement may be made in science, medicine, and standards of living, still the sinfulness of man remains the same through the centuries. The list of sins in Noah’s day, in Jesus’ day, and today are identical. However, there is a universal remedy for the problem. All can be saved to the uttermost, including those from the uttermost (the down-and-out) to the uppermost (the up-and-out)…Christ is the answer, and the only answer, to the problems of guilt and sin. He is the Door and the only Door that provides entrance to eternal life. He is the Key, and the only Key that unlocks an imprisoned world. He is the Mediator, and the only Mediator who can reconcile sinners unto God. He is the Intercessor, and the only Intercessor who can get a verdict of acquittal for the vilest transgressor.

Empty vs Spirit-Filled Christian – John T. Hatfield
An empty Christian talks out of his head, but a Spirit-filled Christian talks out of his heart. The Holy Spirit does not live in our brains but in our heart. A head religion will talk anything, but a heart religion talks Jesus and the Holy Spirit.

The Purpose of the Holy Spirit – GW North
The Holy Spirit has come to make the life of Jesus Christ real in your flesh.

Christianity is Full Time – William MacDonald
The Savior is not looking for men and women who will give their spare evenings to Him—or their years of retirement. Rather, He seeks those who will give Him first place in their lives.

Mistaken – Warren Barfield
Oh I want all I am to die
So all He is can come alive
Until everyone I talk to hears His voice
And everything I touch feels the warmth of His hand
Until everyone I meet
Sees Jesus in me
This is all I wanna be
I wanna be mistaken
For Jesus
Oh I wanna be mistaken
– Warren Barfield –
Turning Away From All that Dims Christ in My Life – J. Wilbur Chapman
Anything that dims my vision for Christ, or takes away my taste for Bible study, or cramps me in my prayer life, or makes Christian work difficult, is wrong for me; and I must, as a Christian turn away from it.
– J. Wilbur Chapman –
Straying From Biblical Evangelism – Kirk Cameron
The church as a whole has strayed quite far from biblical evangelism; that is, sharing the Gospel in the way that Jesus did, the way the Apostle Paul did, and the rest of the disciples and prophets in Scripture.
