II. Peter 3:8 Let us look at the Divine time-measures first of all. (v.8) contains the second answer to the skeptical argument. Time is the condition of man’s thought and action, But not of God’s. His thoughts are not as our thoughts, nor His ways as our ways according to to (Isa.55:8,9) “For my thoughts…

I. Corinthians 1:4,9 All true Christian experience has its origin in the call of God: “Ye have not chosen Me, but I have chosen you.”  (Jh.15:16).

Luke 12,22,34 Our Lord never lost an opportunity of letting the light of truth shine into dark sin-beclouded souls.

Jeremiah 31:25 Naturally we all have restless longings, great desires that go out beyond the present attainable.

Isaiah 59:20,21 The church of God, is a body of men and women, each one whom is weak, fallible, and liable to fall from the truth, even to apostasy, must, by the nature of things, be of itself and in itself defectible “I marvel that ye are so soon removed from him that called you…

I. Kings 17:17,24                                                                                                                               Trials have a way to disciple us.
