Today’s Quote
The sinless character of Jesus Christ is the undeniable proof of His divinity.
— Jonathan Edwards
Spurgeon’s Daily Help
The Bible provides clear evidence of its divine origin through its portrayal of the Perfect Man. Jesus is sinless in thought, word, and deed; even His enemies couldn’t find any fault in Him. There is no other portrait of humanity like this anywhere in the world, and certainly no other person like Jesus.
He is unique, with qualities all His own, yet without deviating from the path of righteousness. He wasn’t a recluse, isolated and untested, but lived in the spotlight as a King among men, interacting with the world in countless ways.

The other day, we sat in a calf’s shed for half an hour, grateful for the shelter from the driving rain, even though we would never have entered such a place otherwise. Discontented people often need to experience adversity and affliction to cure their
habit of complaining. Even things we once despised become valuable when we face difficult circumstances.
