Man Has Two Great Spiritual Needs. One Is For Forgiveness. The Other Is For Goodness.

The Happiness For Which Our Souls Ache Is One Undisturbed By Success Or Failure, One Which Will Root Deeply Inside Us And Give Inward Relaxation, Peace, And Contentment, No Matter What The Surface Problems May Be. That Kind Of Happiness Stands In Need On No Outward Stimulus.

God Is Unchanging In His Love. He Loves You. He Has A Plan For Your Life. Don't Let The Newspaper Headlines Frighten You. God Is Still Sovereign; He's Still On The Throne.

Man Is A Social Animal, Gregarious By Nature, And Finds His Greatest Sense Of Security And Satisfaction In The Company Of Others Who Share His Interests And Attitudes.

Wherever The Gospel Is Preached, No Matter How Crudely, There Are Bound To Be Results.

There Are Three Of You. There Is The Person You Think You Are. There Is The Person Others Think You Are. There Is The Person God Knows You Are And Can Be Through Christ.

Love Is To The Heart What The Summer Is To The Farmer's Year. It Brings To Harvest All The Loveliest Flowers Of The Soul.

Remember: He Wants Your Fellowship, And He Has Done Everything Possible To Make It A Reality. He Has Forgiven Your Sins, At The Cost Of His Own Dear Son. He Has Given You His Word, And The Priceless Privilege Of Prayer And Worship.

I Also Would Have Steered Clear Of Politics.

In A Very Real Sense, The Suffering Of This World Was Created By Man Himself.

Jesus Christ Is The Greatest Man In The History Of The World. And To Me, He's The Greatest Person In The History Of Mankind And The Universe. We Can't Prove It, I Can't Put It In A Test Tube Or In An Astronomical Formula, But By Faith I Believe It Because The Bible Teaches It.

Those Are Decisions Only The Lord Will Make. I Believe The Love Of God Is Absolute. He Said He Gave His Son For The Whole World, And I Think He Loves Everybody Regardless Of What Label They Have.

A Child Who Is Allowed To Be Disrespectful To His Parents Will Not Have True Respect For Anyone.

I Think That The Bible Teaches That Homosexuality Is A Sin, But The Bible Also Teaches That Pride Is A Sin, Jealousy Is A Sin, And Hate Is A Sin, Evil Thoughts Are A Sin. So I Don't Think That Homosexuality Should Be Chosen As The Overwhelming Sin That We Are Doing Today.
