Affirm or Conform? – Zach Honnen

So many people just read the Bible looking to affirm their own beliefs instead of letting the Bible conform their beliefs.

The most common problem that plagues believers – Sam Stephens

The most common problem that plagues believers – Sam Stephens

The more I counsel myself, the more I am convinced that the most common problem that plagues the lives of believers is biblical illiteracy. Most can articulate their love language and Enneagram personality type, but are ignorant of God’s expectations for their personal holiness.

Serious Meditation On Holy and Heavenly Truths – Thomas Brooks

Serious Meditation On Holy and Heavenly Truths – Thomas Brooks

Remember that it is not a hasty reading, but serious meditation on holy and heavenly truths, that makes them prove sweet and profitable to the soul. It is not the mere touching of the flower by the bee that gathers honey, but her abiding for a time on the flower that draws out the sweet. It is not he that reads most, but he that meditates most, that will prove to be the choicest, sweetest, wisest and strongest Christian.

God’s Word and Spirit – Ralph Venning

God’s Word and Spirit – Ralph Venning

God’s Word and God’s Spirit always agree and are of the same mind. The Spirit of God who gave the Holy Scripture cannot say one thing here and another in your heart. That would be to bear witness against himself. And how can a divided kingdom stand?
