Freedom is a word ever on the lips of Americans. Yet it is a word that precious few, even those who claim the name of Christian, know truly. Because freedom is not opened by the working of our will. The door to freedom is Christ and Christ alone, and the key is death to self […]

Men are very much inclined to flatter themselves that God is such a one as themselves, and that they may live in sin and yet die in Christ, may lead the life of the devil’s children and yet go to heaven with the children of God. Matthew Henry. Commentary on the Whole Bible Volume VI […]
