Strings for Your Harp
Part 1. The Beginning
A. The Savior
God owed us nothing - He gave us everything
pertaining to life and godliness in His Son, the
Lord Jesus Christ.
No intelligent man has to be convinced that
there is a God,
though he may have to be convinced of which
is the true God.
It was through a tree that the first Adam lost
his purity and power.
It was on a tree that the last Adam bought back
that purity and power
for all who will accept Him.
Satan lied to man about God,
but he cannot lie to God about man.
The first Adam had a perfect environment,
but he failed.
The last Adam had a polluted environment,
but He triumphed!
God, Who made the first Adam without a mother,
and Who made the last Adam without a father,
can easily make a saint out of a sinner.
Wise men came and worshipped Him.
They still do.
God needs no alibis.
God needs no sponsors.
No man ever did, or ever will do God a favor -
God does all the favors.
A teacher may communicate truth by word.
It is taught only by example.
In a world suffocating in false love, Divine love
is like a breath of oxygen.
Jesus did not have the "Midas Touch,"
He had the Mercy Touch
I find it most intriguing to contemplate the fact
that while men are considering what place to
give Jesus Christ in history, He has already
decided what place to give them in eternity
Are the things we are living for
worth Christ's dying for?
Good Friday.
Today- The Holy One
The Lowly One
The Lonely One
The Only One - Died
To reconcile us to God- Amazing Grace!
How sad He must have been that mighty
morning when He had shattered the powers of
hell, when He had led captivity captive and
given gifts unto men, to find as He emerged
from the tomb, with a million demons behind
Him mourning that mighty Resurrection, that
there was no welcoming party for Him.
There can be no leadership of Christ without
the Lordship of Christ.
