"Overcoming Hypocrisy"

"Overcoming Hypocrisy"
by Neal Pollard

Abundance

Spiritual Abundance

An uneducated man, on his conversion, wished to learn to read, so that he might read the Bible for himself.  He started, and made such good progress that he soon began to read the New Testament through.  A Christian friend, meeting him one day, asked how far he had got in his reading.  He replied that he was now reading in Romans.  "And how do you get on with that?" was the question.  "Well," answered the man, "there is a great deal I can't quite understand, but whenever I come to a 'therefore,' I get a blessing."  He could not comprehend all of those great arguments, but Paul always sums up with a "therefore," containing the sum and substance of his theme, which even the simplest by faith, will have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ" (Rom. 5:1).
