True Godliness – Major Ian Thomas
True godliness leaves the world convinced beyond a shadow of a doubt, that the only explanation for you, is Jesus Christ to whose eternally unchanging and altogether adequate “I AM!” your heart has learned to say with unshatterable faith, “Thou art!”

God’s purpose for you – Paul Washer
God’s purpose in your life is not prosperity, it is not your health, it is not wealth and more than anything, it is not to have your best life now. God’s purpose for you as His son is to make you holy and according to the image of Christ.

A wife who is 85 percent faithful to her husband is not faithful at all. There is no such thing as part-time loyalty to Jesus Christ.
