"Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about the things that matter." Martin Luther King "If you do not stand firm in your faith you will not stand at all' Isaiah 7:9 ..."in the last days there will be very difficult times. For people will love only themselves and their money. They will be boastful and proud, scoffing at God, disobedient to their parents, and ungrateful. They will consider nothing sacred. They will be unloving and unforgiving; they will slander others and have no self-control; they will be cruel and have no interest in what is good. They will betray their friends, be reckless, be puffed up with pride, and love pleasure rather than God. They will act as if they are religious, but they will reject the power that could make them godly. You must stay away from people like that." 2 Tim. 3:1-5 "Dear friends, I’ve dropped everything to write you about this life of salvation that we have in common. I have to write insisting, begging, that you fight with everything you have in you for this faith entrusted to us as a gift to guard and cherish. What has happened is that some people have infiltrated our ranks, our Scriptures warned us this would happen. Those who beneath their pious skin are shameless scoundrels, their design is to replace the sheer grace of our God with sheer license, which means doing away with Jesus Christ, our one and only Master." Jude 1:3,4 "Preach the word of God. Be persistent, whether the time is favorable or not. Patiently correct, rebuke, and encourage your people with good teaching. For a time is coming when people will no longer listen to right teaching. They will follow their own desires and will look for teachers who will tell them whatever they want to hear. They will reject the truth and follow strange myths." 2 Tim. 4:2-4 "No one can serve two masters; for either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will hold to one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and mammon" Matthew 6:24 "How long will you hesitate between two opinions? If the LORD is God, follow Him;" 1 Kings 18:20 "I am astonished that you are so quickly deserting the one who called you by the grace of Christ and turning to a different gospel which is really no gospel at all. Evidently some people are throwing you into confusion and are trying to pervert the Gospel of Christ. But even if we or an angel from heaven should preach a Gospel other than the one we preached to you, let him be eternally condemned!" Galatians 1:6-8 "And why do you break the commandment of God for the sake of your tradition?" Jesus Christ, Matthew 15:3
". . .if you are arguing
with God, you are permitted, but you are "Partial obedience is still disobedience." Dr. Charles Stanley "The world is the world and the Church is the Church, and yet the Word of God must go forth from the Church into all the world, proclaiming that the earth is the Lord's and all that therein is." Dietrich Bonhoeffer "The Church is not only the community of the redeemed, it is also the redeeming community. We are both commanded by our Lord and impelled by the indwelling Holy Spirit to declare the message of God's redeeming love in Jesus Christ to all peoples." Dr. Edward Murphy "... how are they to believe in him of whom they have never heard? And how are they to hear without someone preaching? And how are they to preach unless they are sent? As it is written, "How beautiful are the feet of those who preach the good news!" Romans 10:14-15 KJV "Preach the Gospel at all times. Use words if necessary." Martin Luther "Evangelism is neither to convert people, nor to win them, nor to bring them to Christ, though this is indeed the first goal of evangelism. Evangelism is to preach the Gospel." John R. W. Stott "Mission is essentially giving what we have received, and you cannot give what you do not have. We must listen to God before we talk to men. We are only the messengers who carry the message. A messenger, or a missionary, does not have an importance of his own. His main and only importance is in the fact that he delivers a message. The messenger may not be very educated; he may not even be a man or woman of any significance in the society; but, he's at the door to receive a message from the master and to deliver it and also to receive a message from the people to deliver it to the master. Messengers must be faithful, true, trustworthy and loyal; but, when their job is done they are forgotten and they ought to be. It is the message which is to be remembered. ' He must increase; but, I must decrease' John 3:13." The Right Reverend Benjamin Kwashi The Diocese of Jos, Nigeria "My work is for the people who were damned into this world!" General Booth, the founder of the Salvation Army |
