Tuesday's Treasure #2


Over the years I have written a number of quotes, comments, pithy sayings, and poems in the fly-leafs of my bibles. Each Tuesday I am going to share those various entries from my bibles with you. I hope they will be as much of blessing to you as they have been to me. Sometimes I will be able to give credit where credit is due and sometimes I won’t be able to credit the source. I apologize for this to each one who contributed these gems over the last forty years.


Today’s Treasure: 

How to Pulverize Sin

1Prize God over sin

2.  Pursue God rather than sin

3.  Prevail over sin in faith by the word of God

4.  Promote the ugliness of sin

5.  Present yourself unreservedly to God

6.  Presume sin will find you out

7. Purge sin by confession

8.  Pulverize sin as if your life depends on it

9.  Procure the help of the Holy Spirit

10.  Pray for deliverance from sin and temptation

11.  Pause to remember God has given all we need to live godly in Christ Jesus

12.  Ponder the glories of God that are ravished by sin

  2. Love it, Gregg! Thanks for sharing! Can't wait to see all the tidbits you've written...and I'm so glad to learn you write in your bible. Some view that as 'sacrilegious'
