What About Love?

What About Love? By Billy Graham   •   December 3, 2016 Let love be your greatest aim . . . —1 Corinthians 14:1 (TLB) What about love? How can you be certain you’re in love? I suggest these simple measures that you can apply to yourself. Is your love patient? Is it considerate? Can it wait until marriage for physical fulfillment? Experience says that true love’s patience is inexhaustible. True love does not assert itself, claim rights, or demand privileges. It…

All He Requires

All He Requires By Billy Graham   •   December 2, 2016 Said I not unto thee, that, if thou wouldest believe, thou shouldest see the glory of God? —John 11:40 If you are a young man or young woman hooked on dissent or despair, ready to split, then lend me your attention. My answer concerns your dreams, and the element in your make-up called “faith.” All that God requires of anyone in taking his first step toward Him and toward total…

The Broken Home

The Broken Home By Billy Graham   •   December 1, 2016 “There is sin in their homes, and they are polluted to the depths of their souls.

¹¹  Why art thou cast down, O my soul?  and why art thou disquieted within me?  hope thou in God: for I shall yet praise him, who is the health of my countenance, and my God.

His Presence

His Presence By Billy Graham   •   November 30, 2016 That I may know him, and the power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings . . . —Philippians 3:10 W.C. Burns of India wrote, “Oh to have a martyr’s heart, if not a martyr’s crown.” Popularity and adulation are far more dangerous for the Christian than persecution. It is easy, when all goes smoothly, to lose our sense of balance and our perspective. The important thing is to…

Verse of the Day – Psalm 119:9, 11 KJV

Wherewithal shall a young man cleanse his way?  By taking heed thereto according to thy word.  Thy word have I hid in mine heart, that I might not sin against thee.  

Satan at Work

Satan at Work By Billy Graham   •   November 29, 2016 In whom we have redemption . . . the forgiveness of sins. —Ephesians 1:7 Satan is at work in our world. The Bible is my authority. He exists and he has control over thousands of young people, whose hearts have never been captured by Jesus Christ. He has hundreds of agents writing pornographic literature and producing sex movies to pollute young minds. He has intellectuals in high positions teaching a…

The Sufficiency of God

The Sufficiency of God By Billy Graham   •   November 28, 2016 I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly. —John 10:10 In God’s economy, you must go down into the valley of grief before you can scale the heights of spiritual glory. You must become tired and weary of living alone before you seek and find the fellowship of Christ. You must come to the end of “self” before you can begin…
