    What the humble life looks like.

    Introduction Humility is not a minister’s favorite subject. How can you exhort others to be humble with a clear conscience or presume to know what you are talking about?

    It is a kind of weather-gauge as to your communion, whether you are proud or humble. If you are going up, God is going down in your esteem. "He must increase," said John the Baptist of the Lord Jesus; "but I must decrease."

     | 10,373 views

    We are tempted to define eternal life in light of a duration - it goes on forever. Jesus defines eternal life differently - He describes it in terms of a relationship with Himself. And that's important for us to consider because it is one thing to know

    This Is Eternal Life - John 17:3 - August 19, 2012 As a young boy I had one of those plastic bow and arrow sets where the arrows have the little red rubber suction cups on the end.
