Jay Quine on a Secret Place

Romans 6:19; 1Thessalonians 5:22 -- The Sanctuary
Aholy place, hidden, safe and private once was called a sanctum. It described some place separated from thedetrimental influence of the world. TheBible uses a form of this word to describe you and me. We are that sanctified place. We are separated from the world positionally;we experience maturing sanctification progressively, and share a gloriousfuture of total sanctification prospectively. This is Dr. Jay Quine. Rememberthe word “sanctification.” You are safe,separate, and sanctified in Christ, growing your holy character, and will findthe ultimate sanctification in glory. Let the word richly dwell within you, so that you will be sanctifiedentirely in your body, soul and spirit.

The Mind Morph, by Jay Quine

Christ Driving the Moneychangers from the Temp...Rembrant: Jesus in the Moment, Post by Jay QuineRomans 12:1-2 and the Mind Morph!
My son had a tendency to drift off. His checking out from reality and daydreaming was getting him in trouble at school. We told his teachers about it, but they were getting tired of calling his name several times to get his attention. A change would require a mental renewal. To live Biblically means living in the here and now. This is where Jesus wants you to live, not lost in your mind somewhere. I told my son, “The Lord wants you to stay here. This is the world he made, and where he wants you.” It required a mental renewal--not to live in the past; not to live in the future, but the here and now. This is Dr. Jay Quine. Remember the phrase “the renewing of your mind” from Romans 12:1-2. Living by the word of God rewires our mind to function the way the Lord desires. Be present, in the present!!!

Quine speaks: Rejoice in Your Failures

Roman bronze reduction of Myron's Discobolos, ...Rejoice in your Failures! post by QuinePhilippians 4:4 Wrong Reasons to Rejoice

We celebrate successes. A benchmark anniversary. The closing of a long negotiated business deal. Emerging victorious in a sporting event. Filing your taxes on time. There are lots of reasons to rejoice. But let me, Dr. Jay Quine challenge you. Do you rejoice when you fail? Do you celebrate when you lose that customer to a competitor. When you lose the game. When you end up paying a tax penalty for delinquent filing. You say, “It makes no sense to rejoice over failures.” But the bible says to rejoice in all things. After all, God is sovereign, loving, and omniscient. He is shaping your character more through your failures than your successes. So, rejoice in your failures, and again I say rejoice.


God's Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, by Quine

Molnár József: Ábrahám kiköltözése God's Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, by QuineRomans 4:3-6 and God's Great Accounting
Every month I add up my expenses, and measure them against my income. I do a reckoning. The word “reckon” is an accounting term that pictures balance sheets. It is this term that Paul uses when he quotes Genesis, writing, “Abraham believed God and it was reckoned to him for righteousness.” Like Abraham, our balance sheet has negative righteousness. We need an infusion of capital… to be reckoned with the absolute righteousness of God. So Paul concludes, “The one who believes in him who justifies the ungodly, his faith is reckoned as righteousness.” This is Dr. Jay Quine, remember this word “reckoned” and by faith in Christ be credited with the righteousness of God.

Christ's Crystal Purity for You, by Quine

John the Baptist baptizing ChristChrist's Crystal Purity

1John 3:2-3 The Crystal Purity of Christ
Near White Sands New Mexico is an ancient lake basin where annual mineral deposits from spring run offs form large gypsum crystals. They lie partially buried in the rich soil so when you pick one up they are caked in dirt. But slices are easily fractured off showing their pure even translucent quality. The Bible tells us that although we are mud caked with sin we have not appeared as yet what we shall be. But when Jesus appears we will be like him, and see Him just as he is. It is a motivational hope to fracture off the dirt, and be pure, just as He is pure. This is Dr. Jay Quine. Don’t focus on the dirt, but fix your hope on the pure, translucent, crystal beauty of Christ. Let His light shine through you.
