The Gospel – Paul Washer

Jan 27, 2012 No Comments by

What is the Gospel? Today there are so many  variations of the people think The Gospel is that the meaning of The Gospel has been lost.  Paul Washer’s Gospel-Christ Centered preaching was a huge part of the change in my “Theological Trajectory”, if you will. Paul Washer explains in this message what the Gospel is and [...]

Letter 3
Oct. 20, 1767.

Dear Sir,
A concern for the perplexity you have met with, from objections which have been made against some expressions in my printed sermons, and in general against exhorting sinners to believe in Jesus, engages me to write immediately. I shall chiefly confine myself at present, to the subject you propose.
In the first place, [...]

Five letters to a young man going into the Christian ministry | Letter 2 – John Newton

Letter 2
June 7, 1767.
Dear Sir,
I must beg you (once for all) to release me from any constraint about the length or frequency of my letters. Believe that I think of you, and pray for you—even when you do not hear from me. Your correspondence is not quite so extensive as mine, therefore you may write [...]

The art of preaching – JC Philpot

Jan 21, 2012 No Comments

We are overrun with a shallow, superficial ministry,
which is destitute of all life, savor, and power. A dry,
dead-letter scheme of doctrine, as mathematically
correct as the squares of a chess-board, prevails,
where what is called “truth” is preached. And to

“the art of preaching“.
How simple is truth!
Man’s misery–God’s mercy.
The aboundings [...]

Matt Chandler – God Is For God (Code Orange Revival)

Jan 17, 2012 6 Comments

I don’t normally post things like this, but its a new year! Also, this “Pastor” has a large influence in today modern evangelical movement.  I find it interesting that after this sermon was preached Elevation “Church” took it down. Elevation “Church” is known for their extremely pragmatic-man-centered approach to ministry and the scriptures. I would say it is not [...]

Life is too short; Love is too sacred – J. R. Miller

Jan 16, 2012 No Comments

“Love is patient and kind. Love is not jealous or boastful or proud or rude. Love does not demand its own way. Love is not irritable, and it keeps no record of when it has been wronged. It is never glad about injustice but rejoices whenever the truth wins out. Love never gives up, never [...]

Is Christianity a Religion? -Voddie Baucham
