Gen 15.6
“And he [Abram] believed in the LORD;
& he counted it to him for righteousness.”
“The woman who will be the true wife of a man must be prepared to give up all other lovers,
leave her home, & forsake father, mother, brothers & sisters, change her name, & utterly
identify herself, her prospects for life, her all, with the man she loves.”
– Samuel Brengle
If fb is any indicator, holiness people are being entertained by dolled-up, less than holy looking singers/instrumentalists even so-called comedians.
Why? – 1/12/21
“He would wean us from man, in whom there is not help, to Himself;
He would detach us from the world & fasten us by every tie to Heaven.”
– Samuel Brengle
If you could create your own “god” what would he be like? There could be 100 different answers, by 100 different sinners. Some would want a “god” who’d be soft on this sin, while others would want a little deity who’d allow them to practice another pet sin. But – hear it – But ask a saint, & they’d want God Just. As. He. Is. Oh, yes, praise the Lord, Just. As. He. Is. Amen & Amen. – 2/20/21
DISCERNMENT
We’re all traveling a road of no return.
We all need wisdom to discern
The right from the left, the wrong from the right;
To avoid tripping in the gathering night.

The Holy Trinity loves you: God gave His Son, Jesus came to save you, the Holy Spirit’s here to guide & Comfort you. By most solemn contrast, satan doesn’t love you (there’s reason to question satan loves anybody, including himself). You mean no more to the devil than the lowest low-life criminal – you’re merely a pawn if you allow him to push you around. Flee satan’s dirty clutches today. Run to Christ. Confess to Christ. Believe on Christ. – 2/21/21
“Today the same church member who yells like a Comanche Indian at a football game
sits like a wooden Indian in the house of God…”
– Vance Havner
Jas 4.9
“Be afflicted & mourn & weep: let your laughter
be turned to mourning & your joy to heaviness.”
Educations instilled much of the world & world-Think in us. If you’re interested in de-briefing yourself, it may be a process – but I hasten to add, it’ll be worth it. Example 1. – Lord’s Day. We were raised saying “sunday” (my computer just capitalized this automatically – now, I’ve gone back & put it in lower case [as I typed it]). The word “sunday” is not in the Bible – “Lord’s Day” is (Rev 1.10). Sir/Ma’am we don’t worship the sun. The week’s 1st day has no right to be dedicated to the sun – that makes the sun too important. The Eternal SON rose from the dead on the Lord’s Day; He deserves the honor. – 2/21/21
“Older men declare war.
But it is the youth that must fight & die (1944).”
– Herbert Hoover, former US Pres.
