Spiritually Convicted

Christians have been misled by a generation of soft preachers. They would have us believe that to be good Christians we must be able to purr softly and accept everything that comes along with tolerance and understanding. Such ministers never mention words like commitment and conviction and standing on the truth. I am convinced that a committed Christian will show a strong desire for the cause of truth. He or she will live with a set of spiritual convictions taken from the Bible. They will be the toughest to move in their stand for Christ.


[A. W. Tozer]







Acts 20:28-29 …   Take heed therefore unto yourselves, and to all the flock, over the which the Holy Ghost hath made you overseers, to feed the church of God, which he hath purchased with his own blood.  For I know this, that after my departing shall grievous wolves enter in among you, not sparing the flock.



Matthew 7:15 … Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.
 


Psalm 119: 2-4 … Blessed are they that keep his testimonies, and that seek him with the whole heart.  They also do no iniquity: they walk in his ways.  Thou hast commanded us to keep thy precepts diligently.
