Billy Sunday used to say, “They tell me I rub the fur the wrong way. I don’t, let the cat turn around!” People who complain about straight preaching are usually cats headed the wrong way. People who walk in darkness squint when the light is turned on. The man who walks in the light welcomes more light (John 3:19-21). This explains why some people do not like to come to church. They have photophobia—they are afraid of the light!

Quote of the Day
Long ago a man said to me, “I don’t like sermons on hell. Tell me more about the meek and lowly Jesus.” It is the meek and lowly Jesus who gave us most of our information about hell. He took the last verse of Isaiah and the Valley of Hinnom and compounded them into the most fearful picture of future punishment to be found in the Bible.
