“Evicting the Sacred” by Ravi Zacharias

To repress worship is to repress the irrepressible. Everyone is a worshipper. Every person has his or her God: The only difference is that some can defend what they believe with sound reasons while others do so in a vacuum. Not only individuals but nations have their gods. I am an Indian, born and raised in India. Before I moved to the West I readily accepted the fact that during Hindu festivals the nation would be celebrating the occasion....

Stay With the Truth

I am confident that the church does more to shoot itself in the foot than the world does. Sadly, it is the actions of “Christians” done to other Christians that the world sees and is harming the influence of the glorious gospel of our glorious Savior, Jesus Christ! Nothing harms the name of Christ more & the gospel of Christ more than “Christians” slandering & attacking other Christians. What then should...

BUT GOD WAS WITH HIM (Vance Havner)

BUT GOD WAS WITH HIM But God was with him. Acts 7:9 This is one of the many “But Gods” in the Book that spell quite a difference. Joseph’s brothers sold him into Egypt, but God was with him. Joseph himself put it this way: “Ye thought evil against me; but God meant it unto good” (Gen. 50:20). What men thought was overruled by what God wrought. “Man proposes but God disposes.” “He hath said, I will never leave thee, nor...

Revival or Evangelism?

Revival precedes evangelism. The church must first repent. This is the blind spot in our eye today. It is our Lord’s last word to the church and the last thing most churches will do. Conviction of sin and confession of sin – these are lost notes in our preaching to the church today. We politely dodge it for fear of creating a disturbance. Some years ago you could hear Sam Jones in St. Louis: “Until the church members of this city make...
