In slightly less than
58 years, Charles Spurgeon, the British Baptist preacher, wrote and preached the
hundreds of sermons that made him one of the most influential preachers ever.
Mark Driscoll called Spurgeon, one of today’s most quoted preachers, “The
greatest Bible preacher outside of Scripture.” The elegance of his arguments
makes them memorable. Out of all his quotes, here is the collection of
30 can explain true perception of life as a Christian....Read Here
In this verse, the Apostle Paul makes a bold
statement concerning his salvation. He tells us that he is confident that his
salvation is eternal in nature. But, is it really? Is salvation something we
can be sure of, or is it something we must simply hope will work out for us in
the end? Can a Christian truly have absolute assurance that he or she is saved?
And, can the Christian be sure that he or she will never be lost again? Is
there anything you or I could do that would cause Jesus to take away our
salvation? Is it possible for us to decide that we didn't want to be a
Christian anymore and lose it that way? What I am asking is can God really keep
me saved? Most would say "No!" The majority, of those who claim to be
Christians, holds to the view that says man can, by the exercise of his own
free will turn from God to sin at any time and be lost. This is the view held
by the nearly every church in town. They believe and teach that it is possible
for a person to be lost after they have come to Jesus Christ for salvation.
They teach that man's free will allows him the right to choose between
salvation and sin at his own choice....Read More
There is a medicine so powerful
it can cure every sickness and disease known to man. It has no dangerous side
effects. It is safe even in massive doses. And when taken daily according to
directions, it can prevent illness altogether and keep you in vibrant health. Does
that sound too good to be true? It's not. I can testify to you by the Word of
God and by my own experience that such a supernatural medicine exists. Even
more importantly, it is available to you every moment of every day. You
don't have to call your doctor to get it. You don't even have to drive to the
pharmacy. All you must do is reach for your Bible, open to Proverbs 4:20-24 and follow the instructions you find
there: "My son, attend to my words; incline thine ear unto my
sayings. Let them not depart from thine eyes; keep them in the midst of thine
heart. For they are life unto those that find them, and health (Hebrew:
medicine) to all their flesh....by Gloria Copeland
Jeff was
basically a good kid. He went to church every Sunday with his family and he
stayed out of trouble, yet something was missing in his life. At age fourteen
he experienced a time of great depression. What made the difference, helping
him pull out of his depression, were these three simple words: "Jesus loves me."..Read More
Today
it seems like everyone's stressed. Yes, it's true that
we're built to withstand a certain amount of stress, and it can help us to
become better problem solvers. But we shouldn't be so stressed that we can't
handle our day-to-day life. There's only so much we can
take. For example, a chair is designed to bear a certain amount of weight.
And if it's used properly, it should last a very long time. But if it
consistently bears more weight than it was designed to hold, it will wear out
prematurely and eventually break. You and I were also designed to bear a
certain amount of physical, mental and emotional strain. When we take on more
than we can handle, we eventually break down. The Way to Set Limits:A
word we don't hear much about today is prudence. It means
"careful management: economy." In the Bible, prudence or prudent means
"being good stewards or managers of the gifts God has given us to
use." Those gifts include time, energy, strength and health—even material
possessions. They include our bodies, as well as our minds and spirits. Just
as each one of us has been given a different set of gifts, each of us has been
given different levels of ability to manage those gifts. We need to know
our limits, and prevent ourselves from reaching "full capacity" or
"overload." Instead of pushing ourselves too hard to please
others or reach our own personal goals, we need to listen to God and do what
He's telling us is wise. We need to learn to put God's wisdom into
practice so we can enjoy our lives....Know More
