Saturday, November 11, 2017

Meditation:
[Jesus:] “Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be filled.”
—Matthew 5:6 (NIV)
Quotation:
Doctrinal rightness and rightness of ecclesiastical position are important, but only as a starting point to go on into a living relationship—and not as ends in themselves.
... Francis A. Schaeffer (1912-1984), Letters of Francis A. Schaeffer: Spiritual Reality in the Personal Christian, Good News Publishers, 1986, p. 46 (see the book)
See also Matt. 5:6; Ps. 42:1-2; 63:1-2; 84:2; 107:8-9; Luke 6:21,25; John 6:27
Quiet time reflection:
Lord, grant that we are not swept away in intellectual debates but in the fullness of Your Holy Spirit.CQOD Blog email RSS
