It costs something to be a true Christian. Let that never be forgotten. To be a mere nominal Christian, and go to church, is cheap and easy work. But to hear Christ’s voice, follow Christ, believe in Christ, and confess Christ, requires much self-denial. -@JCRyle
Can you point to the biblical justification for why we should "appreciate" a judge whose record states she is lenient on people who abuse children and refuses to acknowledge Matt 19:4? Christians should refuse to join the Left in celebrating identity politics.
We all should ask, “What must I do to be saved?”
Then we should ask, “What must I do because I’m saved?”
We should never ask, “What can I do and still be saved?”
Much of modern evangelism seems to be spiritual vaccination, providing prospects with a synthetic version of the gospel that does little more than immunize unbelievers to the real thing. In such cases, the baptismal certificate is like a spiritual vaccine ID.

Christian men, you need Godly, Spirit-filled, Jesus-loving, Bible-believing men around you to help you stay spiritually sharp...
“Iron sharpens iron, so one man sharpens another.”
Proverbs 27:17 NASB
When you’re happy, pray.
When you’re discouraged, pray.
When your cup is full, pray.
When you’re “about out,” pray.
When the sun shines brightly, pray.
When the clouds roll in, pray.
Be still & talk with Jesus right now.
“Pray without ceasing.” (1 Thessalonians 5:17)
If you want God to use you you have to take the idols out of your life. An idol is anything that you love more, fear more, serve more,and value more than God.

Sin is the worst pandemic of all time.
From one man it infected/killed all mankind.
Jesus alone is the cure.
“Through one man sin entered into the world, & death through sin, & so death spread to all men, because all sinned.”
Romans 5:12
