Does God Love You?

Finally, someone was willing to come out and say it! Thank-you, Dr. Sproul.

Speaking on how necessary it is to preach the Law in order to excite interest in the gospel Dr. Sproul says,

People [today] are not excited about the gospel because they tacitly assume that there is no great need for it. We are told that God loves everybody, and He loves them unconditionally; that He accepts us just as we are. If that were true, we would have no need to flee from our guilt and sin to embrace the gospel.

Suffer Well

"Ask of God not deliverance from your pains, but strength to bear resolutely for the love of him all that he should please and as long as he should please."

"When one loves God one suffers for his sake with joy and courage."

--Brother Lawrence, The Practice of the Presence of God
