One of the best quotes I have heard in a long time… I have heard this said so many times from evangelicals “I’m not into doctrine, I just love Jesus” Now this from Dan Phillips via his twitter account. “I’m not into doctrine. I just love Jesus.” “Really? Tell me about Jesus — without using any doctrine” What is love? Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures! For I delivered to you as…
How can you make your celebration of the Lord’s resurrection meaningful and memorable this year? While that’s a worthy goal, it’s not easily accomplished. The overt secularization of the holiday is a major distraction for many believers. The profound truth at the heart of the holiday ends up being obscured. To help focus your family’s Easter celebration on the Person and work of Christ, we’re pleased to make two unique programs available to you.…
I love this from the folks at I’ll Be Honest. How can a sinner be right with God on judgment day? What is the only way to heaven? How Can A Man Be Right With God? Rock of Ages, cleft for me, Let me hide myself in Thee; Let the water and the blood, From Thy wounded side which flowed, Be of sin the double cure; Save from wrath and make me pure. Not the labor…
The discredited doctrine of a divided Christ goes like this: “Christ is both Savior and Lord.A sinner may be saved by accepting Him as Savior without yielding to Him as Lord.” Christ’s saviorhood is forever united to His lordship. Christ must be Lord or He will not be Savior. To teach that Christ will use His sacred power to further our worldly interests is to wrong our Lord and injure our own souls. We…
I remember sitting there listen to the Curse Motif of the Atonement from R.C.Sproul at the together for the gospel conference in Louisville in 2008 and in that he talked about this Hymn- Joy To The World and the third stanza being his favorite part, since then I have fallen in love with Joy to the world. That’s the good news… Joy to the world, the Lord is come! Far as the curse is found, But the…
Here’s a side to the Christmas story that isn’t often told: Those soft little hands, fashioned by the Holy Spirit in Mary’s womb, were made so that nails might be driven through them. Those baby feet, pink and unable to walk, would one day walk up a dusty hill to be nailed to a cross. That sweet infant’s head with sparkling eyes and eager mouth was formed so that someday men might force a…
I remember sitting there like it was yesterday, the idolatry was overwhelming at times. My plan from the beginning was to flee from the scene as soon as I could. But I was there for my nephews wedding and he had ask me to do a reading and I immediately said yes without realizing it was from a Roman Catholic prayer-book. Can I just back out now or could I use it for a chance to…
Who were the wise men? Are you ready for that? Matthew chapter 2. All of us have wondered. I remember when I was a little boy I wondered who those guys were. How many were there? Were they really kings? Did they really ride camels? Why did they come to Bethlehem? And, as Paul said, we have most of our ideas about this fascinating group from the people who draw Christmas cards rather than…
I can’t tell you how many conversations I have started about Jesus Christ because of the Christmas seasons, it really is an easier transition to go from the natural realm to the spiritual realm during the last 6 or so weeks of the year, let me explain. When the Christmas season comes around every year I believe it’s the easiest time to evangelize the lost, because talking about Jesus Christ and why He was born…
