Mr. George Kirk was another wonderful man in that same church.
He told me that a four-ply tire is made by pulling fabric first from one source, then from a second. The second has fabric whose cords criss-cross the first ply. Then the process is repeated for a four-ply tire.

C. S. Lewis gives a good example of how continuing in sin looks. In his book, The Voyage of the Dawn Treader, a character comes across a treasure kept by a dragon. Rather than avoid the layer of the dragon, the character sleeps on the treasure and dreams of what he will do with it. Then Lewis

Somebody once said that life was like an onion: you can peel off one layer at a time but as you do so, its juice gets into your eyes and causes your eyes to be filled with tears. There is something that is known as the trouble of life. I read a comment by one man of God called Matthew Henry.
