Proverbs 16:25


It is no evidence that a man is in the right way, because he thinks himself to be in it. There are some who toil all their life in the practice of things which have not the stamp of divine institution and yet are called by the name of religion. God, instead of saying to them as they expect, "Well done, good and faithful servant," will ask those who mortifying question, "Who has required these things at your hands?" Some are treasuring up to themselves the fiercest indignation, when they are feeding their pride with ungrounded imaginations of doing acceptable service to God. Let us therefore give earnest attention to the Word of God, as a light shining in a dark place. 

There are many of the human race who think they are in the high road to Heaven and yet know nothing experimentally of Christ, without whom no man shall see the Lord. How terrible will it be for those who imagine themselves in the way to Heaven to find themselves at last in the lake of fire and brimstone! Alas! why should men indulge themselves in their own deceiving? Will it make a man well when he is dying, to think he is in a good way? It will only keep him from employing the physician until his case is beyond recovery. Examine yourselves impartially by the Word of God, by which you must be judged at the last day. If you are then found in a state of condemnation, there is no relief. But, behold, now is the accepted time, and the day of salvation. Judge yourselves, and fly to the hope set before you, and you shall not be judged.

Me and My House

Elliot Paige Neal ©2018 


And if it seem evil unto you to serve the Lord, choose you this day whom ye will serve; whether the gods which your fathers served that were on the other side of the flood, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land ye dwell: but as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord. Joshua 24:15

In The World


Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour: Whom resist stedfast in the faith, knowing that the same afflictions are accomplished in your brethren that are in the world. 1 Peter 5:8-9
