Little things mean a lot!
Dear Friends,
The words “Little Things Mean a Lot” are the title of an old song but, while they are true in marriage, they are also true in other relationships as well and especially true in our relationship with our Lord Jesus Christ. Today’s devotional will explain. God bless you.
Because of Calvary,
John Janney
John 17:17
John 17:17 English Standard Version (ESV)
17 Sanctify them[a] in the truth; your word is truth.
John 17:17
“I know some who have said, ‘Really, it does not matter what we believe, so long as we are right on the main point.’ But it does matter, for they who neglect any of Christ’s words shall fall by little and little. Every truth is a diamond of untold value. I do not know whether there is such a thing as an unimportant truth. Somewhere or other, near to it, there may lie certain consequences that we reck not of; and truth being neglected, an error may fill its place, and that error may become pregnant with mischief from generation to generation. It is an ill time for the Church of Christ when she begins to walk blindfold, or when she even desires to neglect any of the precepts or the doctrines which Christ has left behind him.”
[Charles Haddon Spurgeon, The Metropolitan Tabernacle Pulpit XLIII, (London: Passmore and Alabaster, 1897), p. 424-425]
