“The heart of man is narrow, and cannot contain both loves. The world draws down the heart from God; and so the more the love of the world prevails the more the love of God dwindles and decays… The Spirit of God in true Christians is opposed to the spirit of the world.”

                            Matthew Henry

      “I want to be a more serious-minded Christian man, more detached from this world, more ready for heaven than I have ever been in my whole life. I want an ear that is sharp to know the voice of the enemy, whether it comes from religion, politics, or philosophy. I want to know when I’m hearing the soft, soothing voice of Antichrist preparing me psychologically for a takeover. I would rather stand and have everybody my enemy than to go along with the crowd to destruction. Do you feel that way?”

     A.W. Tozer
