The Mighty Privileges of Faith in Christ

by J. C. Ryle

It is by faith, simple faith in Christ as our Savior and Redeemer, that people’s souls are made free. It is by receiving Christ, trusting Christ, committing ourselves to Christ, placing our whole weight on Christ–it is by this, and by no other plan, that spiritual liberty is made our own.

Mighty as the privileges are which those who are free in Christ possess, they all become a person’s property on the day that they first believe. They may not yet know their full value, but they are all their own. They that believe in Christ are not condemned, rather they are justified, are born again, are an heir of God, and have everlasting life.

A whisper of prayer

A whisper of prayer

Dear God, If I can just write my feelings out to You, I will. In fact, I’m doing that right now. And I don’t know yet how this will go. But this will definitely come right out of my heart. In the past few months, You have taught me a lot about managing my finances. You were a great teacher. You have used people to inspire me to be a good steward. I thank You for people like Bo Sanchez, who…

Our Decision and Commitment to Serve God

As we study the Word of God, taking in the correct understanding of what the writer meant by the words he used, we begin to see the true human experience from the fall of Adam up until now, and how our lives are involved in the issues before us. We soon realize the truth behind Jeremiah’s words, “I know, O Jehovah, that the way of man is not in himself,…

The Hidden War

By John Miltenberger

9/26/2017

It seems ironic to me that we have spent millions of dollars to intercept and recover messages from outer space, yet we do not have a clue about the origins of the messages we receive every day, almost every minute of every day, in our heads. It really must be entertaining to the source! We rankle at the media for their ongoing, brazen attempts at brainwashing us…

Such a Powerful Little Preposition

Such a Powerful Little Preposition

It sounded like an ultimatum when he said it, and I never liked ultimatums. Ultimatums never did come equipped with enough options to suit me, and this one had that same deficiency. My friend from Tennessee insisted that we had a decision to make, and that we ought to make it right then. We had capped off a long day of classes at Lynchburg Baptist Bible Institute by attending a lengthy evening…

The Almost Christian

By Greg Laurie

“Then Agrippa said to Paul, ‘You almost persuade me to become a Christian.'” —Acts 26:28

The word almost is an interesting word. It is a word that we sometimes use when we are delaying something. When we are not quite ready to commit. When we are procrastinating. When we can’t make up our minds at a restaurant, we will tell the waitress, “I am almostready to decide, but not…

Commitment To Christ

Millions of people have made a decision about Christ without making a commitment to Christ. But what exactly does that mean?

According to recent surveys, 225 million people in America claim to be Christian. Out of that 225 million, only 100 million claim to be a member of a church. And out of that 100 million, only 50 million attend church on at least a semi-regular basis.

Another study reports…

Recently I asked my older sister, Mary Ann, if she remembered when our family moved into the house where we lived for many years. She replied, “You were about 9 months old, and I remember that Moth...
