How to really make a fool of yourself!
Dear Friends,
Argue with Jesus? About salvation? Who could be so foolish. Yet many are doing just that with their “I think” and “I feel” rather than taking Him at His Word. Are you making that mistake? Do you know someone who is? God bless you.
Because of Calvary,
John Janney
Proverbs 12:15
“A beggar stands at your door and asks for charity: he goes the wrong way to work if he begins a discussion with you, and contradicts your statements. If beggars must not be choosers, certainly they must not be controversialists. If a mendicant will dispute, let him dispute; but let him give up begging. If he cavils as to how he shall receive your gift, or how or what you shall give him, he is likely to be sent about his business. A critical sinner disputing with his Savior is a fool in capitals.” [Charles Haddon Spurgeon, The Metropolitan Tabernacle Pulpit XXXVI, (London: Passmore and Alabaster, 1890), p. 89-90]
