Any Christian’s lack of faith is a stumbling block to weak and to the faithless.
Your neglect becomes someone else’s pain.
Believing in wrong never makes it right.
Self-deception leaves it’s scars on others as well as yourself.
"Love stingy" parents, raise loved starved children.
A Smoky Mountain HI
Here is a journey I make each day. Time flows on this side of eternity. I have aged as gracefully as reasonable as can be be expected, and yet feel not a day older in my mind. As I begin a life in the Smoky Mountains I hope you will share my journey as well. www.kleincabin.com

When I know what God wants me to do, and it is in keeping with the Bible, then I have no further choice.
Ministry must include fellowship but cannot end there. 1Thessolonians 5:11
Ministry is “building up one another in the most holy Faith“ Jude 1:20…while seeking the lost with enthusiastic diligence. Mark 16:15-16
Faith is a “stimulus program” for the believers.
You cannot successfully “wash your hands of God” as Pontius Pilate tried to do; but you can only allow Him to wash and cleanse your heart.

The work of the Christian is to love the unlovable to the extend that they believe it.
For your Faith to be of any worth anything, it must change everything about your life, for the betterment of others.
Faith is an about face from where your were.
Faith without obedience is a farce, not Faith.
Sin is man’s way of hating God.

Few comprehend the depth of love that God for His Son and fewer still understand the Father’s love for them.
Faith alone is a lonely faith; it is Faith in Someone who is beyond your ability and the ability of all you know that will bring you comfort on It’s wings.
You cannot neglect your own salvation without leaving other causalities along the way.
With sin your guilt will always exceed your reward.
The love of God for you, as a Christian, is unbelievable, unimaginable , and beyond compare, yet entirely true.

Your reputation in a thousand years will be most likely be determined by your conduct in a few moments.
It is hard to reach your goal when you are going from the wrong direction.
Sometimes the easiest lessons are hardest to learn.
The trouble with “flying off the handle” is that you end up with nowhere to land.
The more you know about God the more you realize there is so much more to know about Him.

Faith is not hindered by circumstances; Compassion is not restricted by Faith; Love is not limited by failure; God is subject to no one.
Hope is a veneer for fear until it is built on the "Solid Rock."
Temptation resides between I can and I shouldn't; while character inhabits the distance between I can and I won't.
Fall is the last swallow of freedom before winter locks you in.
Pray is God's form of accountability.
Some preacher inspire me to write; others inspire me to listen; few inspire me to change.
Heresy begins when you try to convince others that wrong is right. Apostasy focuses on teaching right is wrong.
Never be careful about what you pray for; just finish every prayer with "Not my will but Your will be done"...and mean it.

God will be a friend of His enemies until Judgment Day…then no more.
God’s mercy is only available to you until your death.
God will not make you believe in Him, it will be you choice, until you no longer deny who His is…on that Judgment Day.
The carnal heart shuns the love of God; bringing misery to itself and to those around them.
How far from God are you willing to live?…That is how far from peace and joy you will always be.
