THE CROSS OF CALVARY
Smith Wigglesworth 1859-1947
“The first manifestation of God's plan was the Cross of Calvary. You may refuse it; you may resist it. But God, who loves you with an everlasting love, has followed you through life and will follow you with His great grace that He may bring you to a knowledge of this great salvation.”
ARE YOU FEELING DESPERATE?
Smith Wigglesworth 1859-1947
“God, in his own plan for your eternal good, may have brought something into your life that is distasteful; something that is causing you to feel desperate, that your life is worthless. What does it mean? It means that the Spirit of God is showing you your own weakness so that you might cry out unto Him, and when you do He will show you the Cross of Redemption. Then God will give you faith to believe,
for faith is the gift of God.”
NOT JUST A FEELING
Chuck Missler 1934–2018
Let us consider the nature of love and its consequences. I cannot experience love from you unless you have the capacity to do otherwise. If you have the capacity to not love me, and you choose instead to love me, then that choice has validity. It has meaning. You cannot have a love relationship with a computer. It is pre-programmed to serve you. Love requires choice: unencumbered choice.
RECOGNIZING LIES
Chuck Missler 1934–2018
“The Bible is by far the best-selling book of all time, yet thousands of Bibles sit on shelves year after year gathering dust. When we come to realize the true nature of the Bible, we understand what a terrible waste that is. We live in a world filled with deception, and the best way to recognize a lie is to already know the truth.
We need to know this book that God breathed through His prophets and disciples. We need to know what it says and how to wield it in our own lives.”
