Sin is not bad because it's forbidden. Sin is forbidden because it's bad.

In Our Dying Hour by J.C. Ryle

The day may come when after a long fight with disease, we shall feel that medicine can do no more, and that nothing remains but to die. Friends will be standing by, unable to help us. Hearing, eyesight, even the power of praying, will be fast failing us. The world and its shadows will be melting beneath our feet. Eternity, with its realities, will be looming large before our minds.

What shall support us in that trying hour? What shall enable us to feel, ‘I fear no evil’? (Psalm 23:4.) Nothing, nothing can do it but close communion with Christ. Christ dwelling in our hearts by faith,—Christ putting His right arm under our heads,—Christ felt to be sitting by our side,—Christ can alone give us the complete victory in the last struggle.

Let us cleave to Christ more closely, love Him more heartily, live to Him more thoroughly, copy Him more exactly, confess Him more boldly, follow Him more fully. Religion like this will always bring its own reward. Worldly people may laugh at it. Weak brethren may think it extreme. But it will wear well. At even time it will bring us light. In sickness it will bring us peace. In the world to come it will give us a crown of glory that fadeth not away.

The time is short. The fashion of this world passeth away. A few more sicknesses, and all will be over. A few more funerals, and our own funeral will take place. A few more storms and tossings, and we shall be safe in harbour. We travel towards a world where there is no more sickness,—where parting, and pain, and crying, and mourning, are done with for evermore.

Heaven is becoming every year more full, and earth more empty. The friends ahead are becoming more numerous than the friends astern. ‘Yet a little time and He that shall come will come, and will not tarry.’ (Heb. 10:37.) In His presence shall be fulness of joy. Christ shall wipe away all tears from His people’s eyes. The last enemy that shall be destroyed is Death. But he shall be destroyed. Death himself shall one day die. (Rev. 20:14.)

In the meantime let us live the life of faith in the Son of God. Let us lean all our weight on Christ, and rejoice in the thought that He lives for evermore. Yes: blessed be God! Christ lives, though we may die. Christ lives, though friends and families are carried to the grave. He lives who abolished death, and brought life and immortality to light by the Gospel.

He lives who said, ‘O death, I will be thy plagues: O grave, I will be thy destruction.’ (Hos. 13:14.) He lives who will one day change our vile body, and make it like unto His glorious body. In sickness and in health, in life and in death, let us lean confidently on Him. Surely we ought to say daily with one of old, ‘Blessed be God for Jesus Christ!'

Christ the only Mediator btwn God and us:
"Christ is the treasury in which the Father avails all the riches of his grace, taken from the bottomless mine of his eternal love; and he is the priest into whose hand we put all the offerings that we return to the Father." ~ John Owen

[Ekklesia Afrika @EkklesiaAfrika]

We are deeply encouraged to hear how the plenary session on The Resurrection & the New Creation by Pastor Joseph Byamukama and the pre-conference lecture on Witchcraft by Raymond Ndungu deeply encouraged Brother Komu.

[The Daily Spurgeon @dailyspurgeon]

I am very glad to convert a brother to scriptural views upon baptism, church government, and the higher doctrines; it is always desirable to see brethren learn the truth, but what will be the use of it if the individual is not first converted to God?

[Owen Strachan @ostrachan]

For here we have no lasting city, but we seek the city that is to come.

God in the Gospel of His Son... what a song, what a hymn. Blessed be our Triune God for His glorious plan of Redemption.

[Raymond Ndung'u @RaymondNdungu]

Sad. Ecclesiastes 5:8 anticipates this. But Ecclesiastes 5:10 puts it in perspective:
"He who loves money will not be satisfied with money, nor he who loves wealth with his income; this also is vanity."

Have nothing to do with irreverent, silly myths. Rather l train yourself for godliness; for while bodily training is of some value, godliness is of value in every way, as it holds promise for the present life and also for the life to come.

1 Tim 4:7-8

[Desiring God @desiringGod]

You can’t be tree-like if you’re not meditating on the Psalms day and night. Merely sipping at God’s word will result in chaff-like results: a strong wind will blow you away.

Premarital sex is sin…

- Even if she’s your girlfriend
- Even if you plan on marrying her
- Even if you’re engaged to her
