Preach the Word

“I am determined, as far as ever I can, to preach the gospel plainly and simply, so that everybody may understand it.”

— CH Spurgeon

“For since in the wisdom of God the world through its wisdom did not come to know God, God was well-pleased through the foolishness of the message preached to save those who believe.”

— 1 Corinthians 1:21

“Our Savior Heals A Blind Man”

John 9:1-3 "As He passed by, He saw a man blind from birth. And His disciples asked Him, "Rabbi, who sinned, this man or his parents, that he would be born blind?" Jesus answered, "It was neither that this man sinned, nor his parents; but it was so that the works of God might be displayed in him."

The Sovereignty of God

“Acceptance is the answer to all my problems today. When I am disturbed, it is because I find some person, place, thing or situation, some fact of my life unacceptable to me, and I can find no serenity until I accept that person, place, thing or situation as being exactly the way it is supposed to be at this moment. Nothing, absolutely nothing happens in God's world by mistake.”

Satan’s Snares: Part I

“Satan knows that if he should present sin in its own nature and dress, the soul would rather fly from it than yield to it.  And therefore, he presents it unto us, not in its own proper colors, but painted and gilded over with the name and show of virtue, that we may be more easily overcome by it …” 

Thomas Brooks
