When we see faults in others, we must examine our own spiritual progress, looking for parallel things in ourselves that grieve God's Holy Spirit.


Is Ignorance Truly Bliss?

The 'people of the lie' do not believe they have any major defects and, consequently, do not have any need to examine themselves, let alone change.

The Good Teacher

Sermonette by Levi W. Graham

If the young rich man was truly aware of the sovereignty of the 'good teacher' he would have responded to His request, not gone away sorrowful.


Does Doctrine Really Matter? (Part Six)
