Evil Rulers Are Never Beyond The Bounds

That Which Should Distinguish The Suffering Of Believers From Unbelievers Is The Confidence That Our Suffering Is Under The Control Of An All-powerful And All-loving God. Our Suffering Has Meaning And Purpose In God's Eternal Plan, And He Brings Or Allows To Come Into Our Lives Only That Which Is For His Glory And Our Good.

Legalism Insists On Conformity To Manmade Religious Rules And Requirements, Which Are Often Unspoken But Are Nevertheless Very Real... There Are Far Too Many Instances Within Christendom Where Our Traditions And Rules Are, In Practice, More Important Than God's Commands.

May We Be As Severe With Ourselves Over Our Own Subtle Sins As We Are With The Vile Sins We Condemn In Others

God Does Not Delight In Our Sufferings. He Brings Only That Which Is Necessary, But He Does Not Shrink From That Which Will Help Us Grow.

Introspection Can Easily Become The Tool Of Satan, Who Is Called The Accuser. One Of His Chief Weapons Is Discouragement. He Knows That If He Can Make Us Discouraged And Dispirited We Will Not Fight The Battle For Holiness.
