In 50 years of marriage who but God can say how many angels were dispatched, devils defeated, snares foiled, and sins forgiven! Incalculable the miracle of marriage.

One day America and all its presidents will be a footnote in history, but the kingdom of Jesus will never end.

Presidential election results. Having delivered us from one evil, God now tests us with another. “The Lord your God is testing you, to know whether you love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul.” Deuteronomy 13:3

I received a letter this morning informing me that I have come into the inheritance of unimaginable wealth. I am the legal heir now, will enjoy the best part of it the moment I die, and the rest when Jesus comes. I understand the same letter has been sent to millions.

Charlie’s hair and God’s hands. “Some of you they will put to death. But not a hair of your head will perish” (Luke 21:16–18). “Behold, I have engraved you on the palms of my hands” (Isaiah 49:16).

Qualifications for the new Pope that would bear most fruit. He should believe that justification is by faith alone, baptism is a sign not a cause of regeneration, Christ is at the Lord’s Supper by memory and faith not physically, the Bible alone has final authority not the pope.

Dec. 21, 1968 - Dec. 21, 2018 Grow old along with me! The best is yet to be, The last of life, for which the first was made: Our times are in His hand Who saith, "A whole I planned, Youth shows but half; trust God: see all, nor be afraid!" (Robert Browning)

Oh Lord, knower of all hearts, ruler of all governments, don’t let a good man be destroyed by lies, and don’t let a liar on the supreme court.

The world does not need cool Christians who are culturally saturated. It needs exiles with the scent of heaven and the aroma of Christ.
