Quote by Ian Paisley “The church of Jesus Christ is largely sleeping…”
The church of Jesus Christ is largely sleeping, like a great bedroom, and you have all the Christians in bed and they’re all sleeping…and they’re saying “Please, don’t wake me up! I want to sleep on! And of course when God starts to operate a revival, people cannot sleep. You can’t sleep in church when the Spirit of God awakes the people. Look at the 1st verse of this 52nd chapter..’Awake! Awake! Put on strength! Wake up! You’re sleepy Christians! Awake thou that sleepeth, Arise from the dead! Christ will give you life! ~~ Ian Paisley

I was reading in I John where he talks about the lusts of the world. But I don’t think that it is just talking about the sensual lusts. Because in the next verse it says “the world passeth away.” And it hit me that everything I do that isn’t for God is going to pass away one of the these mornings. I spend waaaay to much time on things that don’t matter, even if their not really sins. whose going to care when we get to heaven? So anyway that’s a great quote because sometimes I need to be awakened to see what really counts.

That’s cool that you have been pondering that lately. I think that I have told about 3 people this week that one day, in a flash, all that we are going to have left is what we have done for Christ. Let’s wake up and see New England rocked with the love and presence of Jesus Christ! Whoohoo!
