The oldest divinely established institution known to man is marriage. It began in the Garden and will continue to be the divine arrangement for happy and holy living as long as men live on this earth. The institution as such has been the recipient of the onslaught of Satan since earth’s earliest days. Divorce, polygamy,Continue reading “The Merry-God-Round of Marriage”

What Can Make Me Whole Again?
Some years ago, at the Great World Fair, held in the city of Chicago, there was said to be a meeting of people representing the various religions of the world. At that meeting was an old-fashioned Bible believing preacher who set out to demonstrate the superiority of Christianity. To do so, he began to quoteContinue reading “What Can Make Me Whole Again?”
You Won’t See God Without It

On the 29th of October Churchill traveled to Harrow, his prep school, to address his alma mater in one ofContinue reading ““Never Give In!””

That truth was embodied by a fellow servant/soldier of the crossContinue reading “Faithfully Consistent, Consistently Faithful”

These haveContinue reading “Words of Wisdom”
