The Farther We Get From God, The More The World Spirals Out Of Control. My Heart Aches For America And Its Deceived People. The Wonderful News Is That Our Lord Is A God Of Mercy, And He Responds To Repentance. In Jonah's Day, Nineveh Was The Lone World Superpower-wealthy, Unconcerned, And Self-centered. When The Prophet Jonah Finally Traveled To Nineveh And Proclaimed God's Warning, People Heard And Repented. I Believe The Same Thing Can Happen Once Again, This Time In Our Nation. It's Something I Long For.

I Think That If I Would Talk On A Political Subject, If I Talk About It, It Would Divide The Audience On That Issue. That's Not My Issue.

Art And Education May Refine The Taste, But They Cannot Purify The Heart And Regenerate The Individual. His (christ’s) Words Were Simple Yet Profound. And They Shook People, Provoking Either Happy Acceptance Or Violent Refection. People Were Never The Same After Listening To Him….the People Who Followed Him Were Unique In Their Generation. They Turned The World Upside Down Because Their Hearts Had Been Turned Right Side Up. The World Has Never Been The Same.

To Those Who Say You Can Have Christ Without Giving Anything Up, Satan Is Deceiving You.

Faith Implies Four Things: Self-renunciation, Reliance With Utter Confidence On Christ, Obedience, And A Changed Life.
