Christ, whose glory fills the skies,

Dark and cheerless is the morn
Unaccompanied by Thee;
Joyless is the day’s return
Till Thy mercy’s beams I see;

The Healthy Church
A healthy church is one that is motivated by a common affection for God and His Word and really knows what it is to love one another.
John MacArthur in Mark Dever, et al., Preaching the Cross, p. 147
Christ Is the Light
Christ is the light; without Him people are always in the dark.
The Fuel of Our Praise
We gather as the church to proclaim the truth. We gather to declare — to ourselves, to each other, and to God — what we know to be eternal reality. There is one God, who is sovereign over the universe and every detail of our lives. We have rebelled against Him. He sent His Son to die in our place for our sins. And through Jesus Christ we have our forgiveness and peace with God.
There are many things we can proclaim during and after a time of corporate worship. God’s glory is unending, and His perfections are infinite. But the fuel of our praise will always be the Gospel of Christ who has redeemed us and brought us to God.
A Very Small God
If a human being and his opinions are worth more than almighty God’s will, you have a very small god.
Stewart Custer, former Chairman of Division of Bible, Bob Jones University
