A Christian is an alien, a stranger here on earth. The main reason Jesus died is that you may go to heaven, not to heal your marriage, or to heal your body, or to make you a lot of money. It is true there are fringe benefits of being a Christian. God gives us a lot of good things along the way; he supplies our every need. He has a plan for our lives and his way will bring us to happiness more quickly than our way of doing things.
All's well ends well - RT. Kendall. pg. 37

Suffering is better

Suffering is better than not knowing God. We may not be able to solve the suffering but we can use it, so don't waste our suffering.

Matahari tidak pernah terbit dari Timur

Kita memulai hari dengan Matahari terbit dari sebelah Timur,
dan kita menutup hari dengan Matahari terbenam ke sebelah Barat.
Pada kenyataannya Matahari tidak pernah terbit,
itu hanyalah fenomena yang kita lihat.
Seringkali kita hanya dapat melihat masalah melalui kacamata manusia dan tidak pernah melihat dari kacamata Allah. Tanpa Iman, manusia tidak akan pernah melihat masalah melalui kacamata Allah. AT.

Misguided in Battle against lust
Posted by
Anton Triyanto
In our losing battle against lust we're often misguided in three key areas. We've had...
- the wrong standard for holiness,
- the wrong source of power to change,
- and the wrong motive for fighting our sin.
