Various are the pleas and arguments that men of corrupt minds frequently urge against yielding obedience to the just and holy commands of God. George Whitefield He is unworthy of the name of a minister of the gospel of peace, who is unwilling, not only to have his name cast out as evil but also to die for the truths of the Lord Jesus.

Your sins will be no hindrance, your unworthiness no burden; if your own corrupt hearts do not keep you back, nothing will hinder Christ from receiving of you. George Whitefield
Left to himself, man is half beast and half devil. George Whitefield God has condescended to become an author, and yet people will not read his writings. There are very few that ever gave this Book of God, the grand charter of salvation, one fair reading through.

Justice may not seem to matter much these days in the world around us but it matters greatly to God! And one day all will see, their vail will be away from their eyes.
In the Psalms, there is no true worship without justice, no faithful prayer that leaves out justice, and no genuine faith that takes justice less seriously than God takes it. There is no account of God that makes justice secondary to his nature or an afterthought to his redemptive, restorative work in the world. There is likewise no account of human beings in the Psalms that allows justice to remain a concern only of other people, rather than of all humanity.

Imagine you have two pizzas and divide them evenly among zero friends… how many people are having a good time at your party? Zero! Calculus aside, dividing by zero is pointless, yet division over nothing is one of the enemy’s effective tools for causing pain in the world.
