Giving Is A Way Of Having What

When The Heart No Longer Feels The Truth Of Hell, The Gospel Passes From Good News To Simply News

The Greatest Enemy Of Hunger For God Is Not Poison But Apple Pie. It Is Not The Banquet Of The Wicked That Dulls Our Appetite For Heaven, But Endless Nibbling At The Table Of The World. It Is Not The X-rated Video, But The Prime-time Dribble Of Triviality We Drink In Every Night.

This Assumes That The Glory Of Christ Is Our Highest Treasure, Not Health, Wealth, Family Or Even Life. So Preaching Must Continually Show Not That Jesus Is The Means To Prosperity But That He Is Better Than Prosperity.

Christmas: The Son Of God Expressing The Love Of God To Save Us From The Wrath Of God So We Could Enjoy The Presence Of God.

The Gospel Is The Good News That The Everlasting And Ever-increasing Joy Of The Never-boring, Ever-satisfying Christ Is Ours Freely And Eternally By Faith In The Sin-forgiving Death And Hope-giving Resurrection Of Jesus Christ.
