Quote of the Day

It is sometimes said of certain unsound books and strange cults, “But there is some truth in them.” Would you say, “This milk has some arsenic in it, but most of it is milk – so go ahead and drink it?” In my boyhood home we had an old clock that wouldn’t run. it was right twice every day! God’s Word is right all the time.

Quote of the Day

No decent married man dates another woman, and no true Christian “dates” this world. He is married to Christ (Romans 7:4), and if he loves the world he is God’s enemy (James 4:4). To flirt with the world is to fall in love with it and end up in spiritual adultery. Physical adultery often begins with a look, a casual conversation. Christians are lured away from the Lord gradually. The first flirtations seem so harmless that warnings are resented. Preachers are “pharisaical” and parents are “puritanical” if they seek to caution their flock or their children. Many a date with this world begins innocently, with rarely a protest, but one thing leads to another and soon it is too late. The best rule is, “Don’t make the first date!”
