Doctrine is not an affair of the tongue, but of the life; is not apprehended by the intellect and memory merely, like other branches of learning; but is received only when it possesses the whole soul, and finds its seat and habitation in the inmost recesses of the heart. - Calvin
The greatest defense against deception that comes from within and from the outside is the gospel. Lies and liars are made plain when they flee from its’ power.
“They went out from us because they were not of us” 1 John 2:19
“We have this as a sure and steadfast anchor of the soul, a hope that enters into the inner place behind the curtain...” (Heb. 6:19)
A place of unfathomable terror and certain death, has become for us in Jesus, a place of inconceivable comfort and eternal life.
“He said to the PARALYTIC, son your sins are forgiven.” (Mark 2:5)
What is often most desirable is rarely what’s most necessary.
When we recognize Jesus does what is most necessary for us he becomes himself most desirable.
