Passion for Praise: 'Death is Swallowed Up in Victory!'
Monday, November 18, 1963
For our dying bodies must be transformed into bodies that will never die; our mortal bodies must be transformed into immortal bodies. Then, when our dying bodies have been transformed into bodies that will never die, this Scripture will be fulfilled: "Death is swallowed up in victory. O death, where is your victory? O death, where is your sting?" For sin is the sting that results in death, and the law gives sin its power. But thank God! He gives us victory over sin and death through our Lord Jesus Christ.
"If we would rightly "acquaint ourselves with God, and be at peace," we must know him as he has revealed himself, not only in the unity of his essence...."
"But Jesus replied [after he said he came down from heaven and the people complained that he couldn't be anyone special since they knew his family],..."
"If we would talk less and pray more about them, things would be better than they are in the world: at least, we should be better enabled to bear them."
"Don't let anyone capture you with empty philosophies and high-sounding nonsense that come from human thinking and from the spiritual powers of this..."
