Set your mind on heaven – DL Moody

Set your mind on heaven – DL Moody

If people would but read their Bibles more, and study what there is to be found there about heaven, they would not be as worldly-minded as they are. They would not have their hearts set upon things down here, but would seek the imperishable things above.

I am persuaded the more light we have, the more we see our own sinfulness: the nearer we get to heaven, the more we are clothed with humility.

The Heart – Richard Baxter

The Heart – Richard Baxter

The first and great work of a Christian is about his heart. There it is that God dwells by His Spirit, in His saints; and there it is that sin and Satan reign, in the ungodly. The great duties and the great sins are those of the heart. There is the root of good and evil: the tongue and life are but the fruits and expressions of that which dwells within.

Gazing upon our Savior – Adrian Rogers

Gazing upon our Savior – Adrian Rogers

Our faith looks backward to a crucified Savior. Our love looks upward to a crowned Savior. And our hope looks forward to a coming Savior.

Importance of relationships – DL Moody

Importance of relationships – DL Moody

If a man doesn’t treat his wife right, I don’t want to hear him talk about Christianity. If I wanted to find out whether a man was a Christian, I wouldn’t go to his minister, I would go and ask his wife.
