Spurgeon on Righteousness by Grace through faith

And you hath he quickened, who were dead in trespasses and sins. (Ephesians 2:1, KJV) Spiritual life is not the result of working; how can the dead work for life? Must they not be quickened [i.e. regenerated] first, and then will they not rather work from life than for life? (emphasis mine) Life is aContinue reading “Spurgeon on Righteousness by Grace through faith”

The Sovereignity of God (Andrew Wommack)

My heart was really stirred this last month. I attended a meeting where an old friend of mine was ministering. He had been through some terrible things that nearly destroyed his faith. He became bitter and angry at God for the things that had happened. When I heard him, he had humbled himself and wasContinue reading “The Sovereignity of God (Andrew Wommack)”

Run Through Romans (chapter 3:1-21)

In Romans 1, Paul tells us two rather alarming truths: firstly, that all the nations of the world are involved in a spiral of increasing unrighteousness.  Secondly, that the justice of God means that God must punish all unrighteousness.

Opinion of 2008 US Election (Dave Duell)

We all have different opinions. These varying opinions caused our country to elect Barack Obama to be our next president. Yes, many of us are disappointed that a president was not elected who has the same values as many believers have. Yet, it is a fact that Obama’s victory has filled most African Americans andContinue reading “Opinion of 2008 US Election (Dave Duell)”

Thought of the Day (Paul Arden)

Old golfers don’t win.  (It’s not an absolute, it is a general rule). Why? The older golfer can hit the ball as far as the youner one. He chips and putts as well. And will probably have better knowledge of the course. So why does he take the extra stroke that denies him victory? Experience.Continue reading “Thought of the Day (Paul Arden)”

You Are Called To Populate Heaven

You who are reading this blog and watching this film – it is no coincidence! Preach! Preach! Preach! Be bold, be strong… I believe the evangelists of this generation are being inspired and challenged to step out in faith and follow in the footsteps of men like Bonnke right now.  Get ready for the largestContinue reading “You Are Called To Populate Heaven”

Run Through Romans (chapter 2)

If you have to sum up Romans 2 in one sentence it would be this: religious people are filled with unrighteousness. We operate in the misconception that religious acts and rituals make us better than everyone else. Let’s look at the text and examine it: 1Therefore thou art inexcusable, O man, whosoever thou art thatContinue reading “Run Through Romans (chapter 2)”
