"But as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord." Joshua 24:15
Jesus Christ
My faith rest not in what I am, or shall be, or feel, or know, but in what Christ is, and what He has done and what He is now doing for me.
Charles Spurgeon
Christ did not die to forgive sinners who go on treasuring anything above seeing and savoring God. And people who would be happy in heaven if Christ were not there, will not be there. The gospel is not a way to get people to heaven; it is a way to get people to God. It's a way of overcoming every obstacle to everlasting joy in God. If we don't want God above all things, we have not been converted by the gospel.
John Piper
