The Cure For Trouble

What is the cure for all this social chaos, domestic trouble, secret pain, this wrong-doing as between kings and subjects, fathers and children, man and man? The one cure is the cross of Christ.

Have I not preached that with some consistency ever since you knew me? Have I ever given a second prescription for this malady of the world? If I have, oh! allow me now to tear it up, publicly to tear it up, so that nobody can ever patch it together so as to make one word of it through all time.

The prescription I will give is given to me. The prescription by which I would abide according to the exhortation of Scripture, the prescription which I would preach to all mankind is this: “The blood of Jesus Christ, God the Son, cleanseth from all sin.”—PARKER.

The Inspiration of Spiritual Initiative

Oswald Chambers

The Determination To Serve

Oswald Chambers

The mainspring of Paul 's service is not love for men, but love for Jesus Christ. Paul's realization of how Jesus Christ had dealt with him is the secret of his determination to serve others.

What God’s Love Can’t Do

Billy Graham

God cannot forgive the unrepentant sinner. The human race is called on throughout the Bible to repent of sin and return to God. This love of God can be entirely rejected. God will not force Himself upon any man against his will.

Pure and Powerful

Zig Ziglar

Too often, we value all received messages equally. God’s Word, though, is more precious and valuable than any other message sent to us. The psalmist describes God’s message as “pure words” that are like silver processed “seven times” in the furnace.

The Secret of Contentment

Zig Ziglar

Somewhere along the way, Paul learned the secret of contentment. He realized that possessions, fame, beauty, and other earthly things can be pleasant for a while, but they can never produce genuine contentment. That comes from the inside.
