No one can run fast enough, jump high enough, sing well enough or drop enough money into the collection bag to impress God. This is because every ability we have and everything we own comes from Him. However, there is a portion of Scripture that runs contrary to the thought that God can’t be impressed …
I’ve always been desperate to reach the lost and, because of that, I’m continually pleading with God to save them. Their fate weighs heavily on my heart as it should on the hearts of every Christian.

To be an atheist is to play Russian roulette with all barrels loaded. An atheist can’t win. Of course, he feels and acts like a big player, until the trigger is pulled. The issue isn’t the existence of God. If the atheist is wrong and there is a Creator, then he was wrong. He gambled …
A look at the parallels between sinners and smokers. No one stinks like a smoker does. It’s true, and what’s more, they don’t realize how bad they smell.

Everyone has heroes–or at least people they respect. David
Wilkerson was one of mine, along with John the Baptist and a few others. So I

a car accident. Of course there was the sweet knowledge that he was with the

screened the movie that was based on his best-selling book, Cross and the

The
doubting talk show host said that he became a follower of Christ in 1981. But
it wasn’t until recently that he verbalized that he wasn’t convinced that God
existed, saying “I feel pretty close to walking away from my faith.”
“You should stop using the criminal justice system as an analogy for your God. As you have pointed out many times, it is entirely unjust for someone else to pay the punishment for the crimes you are guilty of.” –Lurker As far as I know, you are the only one who has ever said to …
“If the Bible is always right and never needs up dating, why is there a New Testament? Why don’t boys have to be circumcised now? Why can you eat pork? Why can you work on a Saturday? Why don’t you have to batter people’s skulls in with stones who worship ‘false gods’?” Andy Duchemin One …
How do you know God is of the Christian variety? Equally devout Muslims disagree. “Hi Ray, I have a sincere question: How do you know God is of the Christian variety? Equally devout Muslims disagree. If I’m on the fence, I need a better answer than ‘I just KNOW. God has revealed himself to me.’” …
