“If you could not help but to sin, how could God hold you accountable for that which you were forced to do to begin with?”
― Jesse Morrell, Cleansing the Temple: A Call to Radical Christianity

“How great a tragedy it is for God to write books for man to read and yet most men do not read them as they know they should. Such negligence is willful ignorance and is not responsible nor is it reasonable.”
― Jesse Morrell, Cleansing the Temple: A Call to Radical Christianity

“16You will surely forget your trouble,e           recalling it only as waters gone by.f      17Life will be brighter than noonday,g           and darkness will become like morning.h      18You will be secure, because there is hope;           you will look about you and take your resti in safety.j      19You will lie down, with no one to make you afraid,k           and many will court your favor.l      20But the eyes of the wicked will fail,m           and escape will elude them;n           their hope will become a dying gasp.”o”

“To hate our own life is to give up seeking our own rights and privileges, to stop seeking our own reputation, to forsake our own ambitions and interests, and to stop seeking our own way etc. We can be disciples of Jesus, only if we are willing to go this way.”
― Zac Poonen, Practical Discipleship: The Christian Attitude to Earthly Matters
