Total Commitment is Christ’s Demand – Chip Ingram

Total Commitment is Christ’s Demand – Chip Ingram

Many Christians “stall out” in the faith when the call to total commitment is received or viewed as something too high or too hard to acquire…or they have never been taught that total commitment is Christ’s demand for all His followers.

God at work on us – David Wilkerson

God at work on us – David Wilkerson

We are so busy working for God, we forget He is trying to work on us. That is what this life is all about: God at work on us, trying to remake us into vessels of glory.

How to avoid conviction – Ichabod Spencer

How to avoid conviction – Ichabod Spencer

Man can avoid conviction by truth, just as he can avoid burning by fire — getting out of its way, refusing contact with it — and no other way. So of the frost, so of the light of the sun, so of the thunder. These may be shunned, but not directly resisted. The truth is just like them. 

– Ichabod Spencer –
from the sermon The Truth Held in Unrighteousness: Romans 1:18

God or sin must die in me – Oswald Chambers

God or sin must die in me – Oswald Chambers

God or sin must die in me. The one elementary Bible truth we are in danger of forgetting is that the Gospel of God is addressed to men as sinners, and nothing else.

“The form of this world is passing away”
1 Corinthians 7:31

Brethren, if you are ever so deeply taken up with any enjoyment that it takes away your love for prayer or for your Bible, or that it would frighten you to hear the cry, “The bridegroom comes” and you’d reply, “Has He come already?” then you are abusing this world.

Clear the Decks – Ian Thomas

Clear the Decks – Ian Thomas

Christ did not die simply that you might be saved from a bad conscience, or even to remove the stain of past failure, but to “clear the decks” for divine action.

It is sin for you – Susanna Wesley

It is sin for you – Susanna Wesley

Whatever weakens your reason, impairs the tenderness of your conscience, obscures your sense of God, or takes off the relish for spiritual things then it is sin for you, however, innocent it may be in itself.
