A Message from our Provider:

“Jesus: Because with God only perfection will do”

Many Christians feel defeated in their prayer lives. To pray even five-to-seven minutes seems like and eternity, and their minds wander much of that time. 'I guess it's me,' many conclude. 'I'm just a second-rate Christian.' No, if you are indwelt by the Holy Spirit and generally seeking to live in obedience to God's Word, then the problem likely isn't you, but your method... Let the words of Scripture be the words of your prayers... By praying through a passage of Scripture, you'll find yourself praying about most of 'the same old things,' but in brand new ways. You'll likely be able to turn to any part of the Bible and pray through it.

Donald S. Whitney

Some persons think they can know God by means of their own human reason. But reason is a blind ally spiritually. It has always been the great minds exercising their powers apart from the Word of God who have produced the great heresies. Some think they can discover God by listening to a so-called “inner voice.” But the voice is often nothing more than an expression of their own inner desires. Quite a few think that spiritual truths can be verified by supernatural events or miracles. But the Bible everywhere teaches that even miracles will not lead men and women to understand and receive God's truth unless they themselves are illuminated by the Bible (see Luke 16:31). I believe that we can state categorically that there is no knowledge apart from Jesus Christ and that there is no knowledge of Jesus Christ apart from a knowledge of the Bible.
