The Unheeded Secret

John 18:36
“My kingdom is not of this world.”

Key Passages

• The great enemy to the Lord Jesus Christ in the present day is the conception of practical work that has not come from the New Testament, but from the systems of the world in which endless energy and activities are insisted upon, but no private life with God.

• Jesus said, “The Kingdom of God cometh not with observation, for lo the Kingdom of God is within you,” a hidden, obscure thing.

• The central thing about the Kingdom of Jesus Christ is a personal relationship to Himself, not public usefulness to men.

• You have no idea where God is going to engineer your circumstances, no knowledge of what strain is going to be put on you either at home or abroad, and if you waste your time in overactive energies instead of getting into soak on the great fundamental truths of God's Redemption, you will snap when the strain comes; but if this time of soaking before God is being spent in getting rooted and grounded in God on the unpractical line, you will remain true to Him whatever happens.

My Own Thoughts

Here is something I need... I need to soak in the great fundamental truths of God's redemption. I need to stop reading books about the Bible and hearing what others have to say about the Bible, and I need to actually read the Bible.
