It’s as impossible to imitate or copy Kingdom life without Kingdom birth as it is for a fish to live out of water and breathe air like a human being. It is not a matter of trying harder – or attending “fish church”. That poor fish can try and try till it is blue in the gills and it

Another great man, President Franklin D. Roosevelt, said, “It is hard to lead, when you look over your shoulder and there isn’t anyone there.” Well, that is what happens to Jesus. He comes to his own home town, and he looks over his shoulder and there isn’t anyone there. Well, that isn’t exactly

Again we must know what God is saying to us about a particular situation, and we must not assume we know what He is going to say. Jesus allowed divorce for unfaithfulness (Matthew 19:9), but he does not demand it. If trust can be reestablished, 70% of marriages can survive one affair. There are
