Our modern culture extravagantly rewards beauty, athletic skill, wealth, and artistic achievement, qualities which seemed to impress Jesus not at all.” WorldCultureJesusWealthQualityModernThis WorldHonorSkillsAchievementRewardsArtisticWinnerLoserImpressAthleticModern Culture Author:Philip Yancey
“If you have eternal life at all, it simply means that you have the Son, Jesus Christ NOW! Eternal life is not a peculiar feeling inside! It is not your ultimate destination, to which you will go when you are dead. If you are born again, eternal life is that quality of life that you possess right now, at this very moment, in your own physical body, with your own two feet on the ground, and in the world TODAY! And where does this life come from? Of Him! He is that life! So if you have eternal life, it means that you have Somebody, Jesus Christ, and the life that you possess is of Him.” IfsWorldMeanDoeTwoMomentsFeelingsBodyTodayLife IsJesusChristBornQualityFeetSonRight NowEternalJesus ChristUltimateThis LifeDestinationPeculiarQuality Of LifeEternal LifeWorld TodayBorn AgainPhysical BodyFeet On The Ground Author:W.

“For me, passion means whatever a person is willing to suffer for.'Apostolic passion,' therefore, is a deliberate, intentional choice to live for the worship of Jesus in the nations. It has to do with being committed to the point of death to spreading His glory. It's the quality of those who are on fire for Jesus, who dream of the whole earth being covered with the Glory of the Lord.” MeanPersonsWholeDreamEarthSufferingChoicesPassionJesusNationsQualityLordFireWillingWorshipGloryCommittedCoveredDeliberateApostolic Author:Floyd McClung

“Sanctification means the impartation of the Holy qualities of Jesus Christ. It is His patience, His love, His holiness, His faith, His purity, His godliness, that is manifested in and through every sanctified soul. Sanctification is not drawing from Jesus the power to be holy; it is drawing from Jesus the holiness that was manifested in Him, and He manifests it in me.” MeanSoulJesusChristQualityHolyJesus ChristDrawingPurityHolinessHis LoveGodlinessSanctification Book:My Utmost for His Highest Source: My Utmost for His Highest
