Sin Is What You Do When You

What Is Sin? It Is The Glory Of God Not Honored. The Holiness Of God Not Reverenced. The Greatness Of God Not Admired. The Power Of God Not Praised. The Truth Of God Not Sought. The Wisdom Of God Not Esteemed. The Beauty Of God Not Treasured. The Goodness Of God Not Savored. The Faithfulness Of God Not Trusted. The Commandments Of God Not Obeyed. The Justice Of God Not Respected. The Wrath Of God Not Feared. The Grace Of God Not Cherished. The Presence Of God Not Prized. The Person Of God Not Loved. That Is Sin.

Missions Is The Overflow Of Our Delight In God Because Missions Is The Overflow Of God's Delight In Being God.

We Can Be Content With Simplicity Because The Deepest Most Satisfying Delights God Gives Us Through Creation Are Free Gifts From Nature And From Loving Relationships With People. After Your Basic Needs Are Met, Accumulated Money Begins To Diminish Your Capacity For These Pleasures Rather Than Increase Them. Buying Things Contributes Absolutely Nothing To The Heart's Capacity For Joy.

The Great Barrier To Worship Among God's People Is Not That We Are Always Seeking Our Own Satisfaction, But That Our Seeking Is So Weak And Half-hearted That We Settle For Little Sips At Broken Cisterns When The Fountain Of Life Is Just Over The Next Hill.

Every Spirit That Does Not Confess Jesus Is Not From God.
