A man’s contentment is in his mind, not in the extent of his possessions. Alexander the Great, with all the world at his feet, cries for another world to conquer.- - Charles Spurgeon

“Doctrine divides!”
No, doctrine defines. -Matt Smethurst @MattSmethurst
"Indeed, this is what is unique about Christian faith in contrast to all other religions and spiritualities. Faith is not simply faith in God. It is not about connecting to a power greater than ourselves in the world or, for that matter, in ourselves. It is not about our private choice to be spiritual. No, it is instead all about receiving God's promises of redemption, about receiving them at the only place and in the only way that we can receive them. It is about coming through Christ to receive what the Father has for us in him. And when we take hold of Christ, and of the promises made to us and received in him, we have the most important thing that God wants us to have. "For all the promises of God find their Yes in him. That is why it is through him that we utter our Amen to God for his glory." (@ Cor. 1:20) - David F. Wells, God in the Whirlwind: How the Holy-love of God Reorients Our World
