... when the BBC started in 1927 it did not broadcast on a Sunday before 12:30pm. This was not to enable people to have a long lie in, but to attend church. For the rest of Sunday the BBC would only broadcast religious services, classical music and other ‘serious’ items.- David Robertson https://theweeflea.com/2017/12/21/the-bbc-must-remember-its-christian-roots-and-stop-mocking-evangelicals-article-on-premier-christianity/
The moment you come into this world you begin to go
out of it; your first breath is linked with your last.
--Martyn Lloyd-Jones (1899-1981)

I have learned to kiss the waves that slam me against the rock of ages. -Spurgeon
“There is more glory given unto God by coming unto Christ in believing, than in keeping the whole law; inasmuch as he has more eminently manifested the holy properties of his nature in the way of salvation by Christ, than in giving of the law. There is therefore no man who under gospel invitations, refuses to come and to close with Christ by believing, but secretly, through the power of darkness, blindness, and unbelief, he hates God, dislikes all his ways, would not have his glory exulted or manifested, choosing rather to die in enmity against him than to give glory to him. Do not deceive yourselves; it is not an indifferent thing whether you will come in unto Christ upon his invitations or no, – a thing that you may put off from one season unto another: your present refusal of it is as high an act of enmity against God as your nature is capable of.”John Owen, The Glory of Christ (Page 44)
