Any man that puts his will above the will of God, that man is making himself God. And that’s what sin is today in the human family. “All we like sheep have gone astray ….” How?

That’s what the Lord Jesus meant when He said, “I am the way … no man comes to the Father but by Me.” Now, friend, you are in God’s universe today. You’re breathing His air, using His sunshine. And you’re His creature. And you owe Him a great deal. And you are to obey Him.
