Bible Note: "It costs something to be a true Christian! Let that never be forgotten. To be a 'mere nominal Christian,' and go to church -- is cheap and easy work. But to hear Christ's voice, and follow Christ, and believe in Christ, and confess Christ, requires much self-denial. It will cost us... our sins, our self-righteousness, our ease, our worldliness. All -- all must be given up. Our Lord Jesus Christ would have us thoroughly understand this. He bids us to 'count the cost.'" --J. C. Ryle |
