We who preach the gospel must not think of ourselves as public relations agents sent to establish good will between Christ and the world. We must not imagine ourselves commissioned to make Christ acceptable to big business, the press, the world of sports or modern education. We are not diplomats but prophets, and our message is not a compromise but an ultimatum. A.W. Tozer
Therefore let God-inspired Scripture decide between us; and on whichever side be found doctrines in harmony with the word of God, in favor of that side will be cast the vote of truth. --Basil of Caesarea
Once you learn to discern, there's no going back. You will begin to spot the lie everywhere it appears.

I thank Christ Jesus our Lord, who has strengthened me, because He considered me faithful, putting me into service. 1 Timothy 1:12

Thought for the Day


“No man can truly be a Christian without rejoicing that others also have become Christian.  Nothing should gladden the heart of the believer more than to know that others also are in a like position and enjoying the same blessings.”
D. Martyn Lloyd-Jones, “God’s Ultimate Purpose: An Exposition of Ephesians 1”, p.313

Very true, and also why false revivals (per one of your previous posts) grieve our hearts so much. We want to wholeheartedly rejoice in genuine new births, but never in false conversions.
