Always Remember....

I am totally dependent on the finished work of Christ alone—not on my performance—as the basis for all my blessings, especially the blessing of being accepted by God as a beloved adopted son.

Hell

If there be really a hell of such dreadful and never-ending torments, as is generally supposed, of which multitudes are in great dangerand into which the greater part of men in Christian countries do actually from generation to generation fall, for want of a sense of its terribleness, and so for want of taking due care to avoid itthen why is it not proper for those who have the care of souls to take great pains to make men sensible of it? Why should they not be told as much of the truth as can be?

Loving Jesus

"You shall love the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your might." Deut. 6:5

Do I love Jesus more than sleep?
Do I spend time with him each morning?
Do I love Jesus more than TV?
Do I spend time with him at night?
Do I love Jesus more than money?
Do I give generously?
Do I love Jesus more than control?
Have I surrendered the outcome of
my life to him?
Do I love Jesus more than my reputation?
Do I sin in protecting myself?
Do I love Jesus more than my plans?
Do I get angry when he changes them?
