“[Our] problems boil down to one of moral choices.
God wanted a world based on moral values,
thus He created mankind with the ability to respond to moral choices.
Faced with the moral option of living selfishly or unselfishly, people can and do make wrong decisions. We are free to choose, but we reap the consequences of bad moral decisions.”

“He who is called to and set apart for the work of an evangelist is to devote his time and effort single-mindedly to this God-given task.

Only the clear leading of God will cause him to change his ministry.”
