The devil does not care

The devil does not care how often you go to church (in fact some false idea of security may help damn you), or if you work for the church (a “club” in many cases) or even if you are a minister, as long as you control the smallest 1% of your life; satan HAS you unless and until you give God all – that is A. L. L.

EDEN? NO. BETTER!

Poison ivy didn’t grow in the bowers of Eden
Or, if it did, it wasn’t poisonous there.
And the wolf didn’t live in the glens of the Garden
Or, if so, he was gracious to share.
We can look back in anger at Adam’s great sin
And we can wish to have lived in his place.
But there cometh a day much like Eden and better,
For all the redeemed,
ALL the redeemed of our whole race.
– eab, Jun. ‘86
When a wife does what her husband wants

When a wife does what her husband wants
out of fear, the obedience is good but the motive is not. When a wife does the same deed because she respects (even admires) her husband the obedience is good; the motive is better. When a wife does what her husband wants because she loves him, the obedience is good and the motive is at its highest level.
Friend, WHY are you obeying Christ?
