Giver & Maintainer

The Holy Spirit is not only the Giver, but the Maintainer of all life in the soul.

Offensive to the world?

Nothing is more offensive to the world than vital godliness!

A monster in the church of God!

"We know that we have passed out of death into life, because we love the brothers. He who doesn't love his brother remains in death." 1 John 3:14

What would a Christian be without love? A monster indeed! We hear sometimes of monsters in nature—of a lamb born with two heads, or six legs, or two hearts. So a professing Christian, without any love to the people of God, would be a monster in the Church of God! Grace has many painful, many lingering births; but the heavenly Jerusalem, which is the mother of us all, never brought forth a monster from her teeming womb. "The fruit of the Spirit is love." Galatians 5:22
