Chuck Swindoll Wrote In His Book
Contributed by Shawn Rose on May 19, 2009 (message contributor)
Chuck Swindoll wrote in his book "Salvation" – “If depravity were blue, we’d be blue all over. Cut us anywhere and we’ll bleed blue. Cut into our minds and you’ll find blue thoughts. Cut into our vision and there are blue images full of greed and lust. Cut into our hearts and there are blue emotions of hatred, revenge, and blame. Cut into our wills and you’ll find deep blue decisions and responses.”
