(Paul is saying to sum up this whole book) whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable, if there is any excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things.

During creation, each day God saw everything that He had created was good. Satan wants to flip over everything upside down. He wants people to call good things "bad" and bad things "good."

Elijah had just ascended into heaven via a whirlwind. Elisha had received his mantle which represents the anointing, the power of the Holy Spirit in his life.

Little children, let no one deceive you. Whoever practices righteousness is righteous, as he is righteous. Whoever makes a practice of sinning is of the devil, for the devil has been sinning from the beginning.

That was a common occurrence in Pensacola during the revival. It was the result of two things: the tangible, felt presence of God, and preaching that searches hearts and promotes holiness.

No. But we can at least Continue reading]]> http://www.fireonyourhead.org/2008/10/07/3082/feed/ 0 http://www.fireonyourhead.org/2007/03/21/chains-of-self-righteousness/ http://www.fireonyourhead.org/2007/03/21/chains-of-self-righteousness/#comments Wed, 21 Mar 2007 09:05:00 +0000 Stevie B http://www.fireonyourhead.org/archives/1317 Why do you think your friends, peers, classmates, neighbors, whoever, don't go to church?
