That’s what I want to talk about using the experience of Dr. Harry Ironside from his book titled: “Holiness: The False and the True (1912).”

Imagine the confidence of a very wealthy man who said he had—for his own soul—a barn of grains for his secure future. How fearful would it be when the storms of life came; when God told … Read more
