Be True to God's Truth and so Be True to You

Own Yourself

"The individual has always had to struggle to keep from being overwhelmed by the tribe. 

If you try it, you will be lonely often, and sometimes frightened ─ but no price is too high to pay for the privilege of owning yourself."

Rudyard Kipling

"I solemnly charge you in the presence 
of God and of Christ Jesus, 
who is to judge the living and the dead, 
and by His appearing and His kingdom:
preach the word; 
be ready in season and out of season; 
reprove, 
rebuke, 
exhort, 
with great patience 
and instruction.

For the time will come 
when they will not endure sound doctrine; 
but wanting to have their ears tickled, 
they will accumulate for themselves 
teachers in accordance to their own desires, 
and will turn away their ears from the truth 
and will turn aside to myths.

But you, 
be sober in all things, 
endure hardship, 
do the work of an evangelist, 
fulfill your ministry."...
