Christian Life

Charles Finney on Evangelism

Christian people, are you figuring round and round to get a little property, yet neglecting souls? Beware lest you ruin souls that can never live again! Do you say— “I thought they knew it all?” They reply to you, “I did not suppose you believed a word of it yourselves. You did not act as if you did. Are you going to heaven? Well, I am going down to hell! There is no help for me now. You will sometimes think of me then, as you shall see the smoke of my woe rising up darkly athwart the glorious heavens. After I have been there a long, long time, you will sometimes think that I, who once lived by your side, am there. O remember, you cannot pray for me then; but you will remember that once you might have warned and might have saved me.”

Seek God and Be Found of Him – Art Katz

Lock yourself in a room; throw the key away; do something! Seek God and be found of Him. That is His promise: “If you will seek for Me with all your heart and all your soul, you shall be found of Me” (Deuteronomy 4:29). When you do obtain that knowledge, maintain it, or else you will lose it.

Jesus Equips for His Command – Oswald Chambers

If Jesus ever commanded us to do something that He was unable to equip us to accomplish, He would be a liar. And if we make our own inability a stumbling block or an excuse not to be obedient, it means that we are telling God that there is something which He has not yet taken into account.

My Single Prayer – Charles Spurgeon

I have now concentrated all my prayers into one, and that one prayer is this, that I may die to self, and live wholly to Him.

A Prayerless Soul is a Christless Soul – Charles Spurgeon

A prayerless soul is a Christless soul. Prayer is the lisping of the believing infant, the shout of the fighting believer, the requiem of the dying saint falling asleep in Jesus. It is the breath, the watchword, the comfort, the strength, the honour of a Christian.
