“In our worldly perceptions of Jesus, we tend to embrace the kindness of his love ('be encouraged') but not the discipline of his love ('and sin no more'). But with the whole scope of his love, or maturity in Christ, we begin relying on him for guidance where we would prefer him to walk beside us rather than behind us.” WholeJesusChristSinWalksLove IsBehindsKindnessDisciplinePerceptionEmbraceMaturityGuidanceWorldlyHis LoveScopeBe Encouraged Book:Killosophy Source: Killosophy
“This it is that gives a majesty so pure and touching to the historic figure of Christ; self-abandonment to God, uttermost surrender, without reserve or stipulation, to the guidance of the Holy Spirit from the Soul of souls; pause in no darkness; hesitation in no perplexity, recoil in no extremity of anguish, but a gentle unfaltering hold of the invisible Hand, of the Only Holy and All Good--these are the features that have made Jesus of Nazareth the dearest and most sacred image to the heart of so many ages.” GivingHeartMadeSoulSelfHandsAgeSpiritJesusChristDarknessFiguresHolyPureSacredSurrenderInvisibleGentleFeaturesGuidanceHoly SpiritTouchingReservesPausesAnguishHistoricMajestyAbandonmentHesitationExtremityPerplexityRecoilNazarethInvisible HandStipulations Book:A Martineau year book: Extracts from sermons Source: A Martineau year book: Extracts from sermons
“For those who have already experienced the grace of Almighty God through faith in the Lord Jesus Christ, prayer becomes the catalyst for fellowship with the Lord of our souls, redeemed by his blood. By tapping into the channel by which we commune with the One who calls his children “friends,” we can receive his strength in our weakness; his guidance in our steps; and his mercy when we stumble along life's path.” ChildrenSoulJesusChristPrayerLordStepsPathGraceBloodWeaknessJesus ChristMercyGuidanceAlmightyFellowshipCatalystLord Jesus ChristRedeemedAlmighty GodTappingCommunes Author:Franklin Graham
“I know Christianity; and I know I have to move away from it and approach Jesus Christ on my own.

“The Bible represents a fundamental guidepost for millions of people on the planet, in much the same way the Koran, Torah, and Pali Canon offer guidance to people of other religions. If you and I could dig up documentation that contradicted the holy stories of Islamic belief, Judaic belief, Buddhist belief, pagan belief, should we do that? Should we wave a flag and tell the Buddhists that the Buddha did not come from a lotus blossom? Or that Jesus was not born of a literal virgin birth? Those who truly understand their faiths understand the stories are metaphorical.” PeopleIfsWayShouldStoriesJesusBeliefBornMillionsPlanetsBirthHolyOffersFundamentalsWaveBuddhistGuidanceIslamicFlagsVirginsLiteralPaganMetaphoricalCanonLotusesDocumentationTorahVirgin Birth Author:Dan Brown
“Seek guidance for outer action, but be even more concerned with the desires of the heart, that they be consistent with the character of the Lord Jesus Christ. Never did He call upon men for protection, nor even upon angels, although they were sent to minister to Him. It was His own inner unification with the Father's heart that effected His preservation against all evil that was directed against Him. Even so, your own heart purity determines the extent of your personal preservation.” MenHeartCharacterActionDesireEvilFatherJesusChristLordAngelJesus ChristConcernedDetermineProtectionMinistersGuidancePurityConsistentPreservationLord Jesus ChristUnification Book:On the Highroad Of Surrender - Updated Source: On the Highroad Of Surrender - Updated
