Where you start from decides where you finish, the work you undertake, your attitude and the nature of the work. There are 3 possible starting points, and why we must start with God. 1. The world - the human heart is evil and we would despair 2. Ourselves - leads to self-gratification or unwillingness to do anything 3. God - what does God want done? That all men should be saved and come to the knowledge of the truth. God has gone before and is working., Reel box reads : "Tape 5 1971 Summer School Track 1 : 'The Plan' (God's Sovereignty) - Rev Dr R. A. Cole Track 2 : Sunday H.C. Address - Most Rev M. L.
