Name Calling

The late E.V. Hill, a pastor from California and a popular speaker, had a sign in front of his church that read, “Conservative, liberal, militant.” One day somebody asked him what it meant.

He replied, “Conservative means we believe every word of the Bible. Liberal means we’ll give our coat to any man that needs it.  Militant means we aren’t waiting for the devil to bring the battle to us; we are assaulting the gates of hell.”

If you like to label people, put that on me. I believe the Bible from cover to cover. I follow Jesus who said if you’ve got two coats give one to someone who doesn’t have one. And I want to live in such a way that when I die, hell throws a party to celebrate the fact that I’m no longer in the fight.
