Let a flood or a fire hit a populous countryside and no able-bodied citizen feels that he has any right to rest till he has done all he can to save as many as he can. While death stalks farmhouse and village no one dares relax; this is the accepted code by which we live. … Continue reading “EVANGELISM:
LACK OF INVOLVEMENT IN; EVANGELISM: URGENCY OF”

A friend of mine went to see a man who was the head of a local communist cell in a local communist headquarters where they send out literature. The communist said, “Come in, Reverend, and sit down.” He went in and sat. “Now, we’re communists,” he said, “you know that, and you’re a minister. Of … Continue reading “EVANGELISM:

If we evangelicals had one-third of the enthusiasm of some of the cults we could take a continent. We have the power and they do not—that is, we have power available to us and they do not. We have a lazy bunch of evangelicals on our hands. Rut, Rot or Revival: The Condition of the … Continue reading “EVANGELISM:
DIVINE POWER IN; EVANGELISM: LACK OF INVOLVEMENT IN; CULTS; CHURCH: APATHY”

The uncomprehending mind is unaffected by truth. The intellect of the hearer may grasp saving knowledge while yet the heart makes no moral response to it. A classic example of this is seen in the story of Benjamin Franklin and George Whitefield. In his autobiography Franklin recounts in some detail how he listened to the … Continue reading “EVANGELISM:
DIVINE POWER IN; TRUTH: NECESSITY OF RESPONSE; SALVATION: HOLY SPIRIT’S WORK”

… we have such a short time to prepare for such a long time. By that I mean we have now to prepare for then. We have an hour to prepare for eternity. To fail to prepare is an act of moral folly. For anyone to have a day given to prepare, it is an … Continue reading “ETERNITY;
SALVATION: PREPARATION FOR ETERNITY”

I have to tell the truth, and the truth is not very well received, even by the saints. The simple truth is that unless we have a lighting down upon evangelicalism, upon fundamentalism, upon our gospel churches, unless the Dove of God can come down with His wings outspread and make Himself known and felt … Continue reading “EVANGELICALISM;
FUNDAMENTALISM; HOLY SPIRIT: NEED FOR”

Then there’s the poor sick world out there. I, for my part, do not want to be happy while the world perishes. Nobody loves the world quite enough. The Man who loved the world enough to die for it died for it, and Paul, the man who loved Israel enough to want to perish for … Continue reading “EVANGELISM:
CONCERN FOR LOST”

Let this truth penetrate. There is a glorified Human Being at the right hand of God—not a spirit but a Man glorified. He is there interceding for us, representing us. This is why I believe in the security of the saints. How can I help but believe that? If Jesus Christ is at the right … Continue reading “ETERNAL
