“In the spiritual realm, a man who will lead a rebellion has already proven, no matter how grandiose his words or angelic his ways, that he has a critical nature, an unprincipled character, and hidden motives in his heart. Frankly, he is a thief. He creates dissatisfaction and tension within the realm, and then either seizes power or siphons off followers. The followers he gets, he uses to found his own dominion.

Such a sorry beginning,
built on the foundation of insurrection ... No, God never honors division in His realm.”
― Gene Edwards, A Tale of Three Kings: A Study in Brokenness

“The one indispensable requirement for producing godly, mature Christians is godly, mature Christians.”

“There are only two kinds of people in the end: those who say to God, "Thy will be done," and those to whom God says, in the end, "Thy will be done." All that are in Hell, choose it. Without that self-choice there could be no Hell. No soul that seriously and constantly desires joy will ever miss it. Those who seek find. Those who knock it is opened.”
― C.S. Lewis, The Great Divorce

“Sometimes God is glorified when sick saints get well. But more often than not, God is glorified when sick saints die well.”
