Grow Up in Grace!

Grace and Discipline Go Together.

“the grace of God has appeared, bringing salvation to all men instructing us, for the purpose that, having rejected wickedness and worldly lusts, we would live soberly and righteously and godly in the present age” (Titus 2:11-12) What have we to deny?

Look above, Christian Brothers and Sisters, and let us weep. Oh God, You have given us a mighty weapon, and we have permitted it to rust! You have given us that which is mighty as Yourself, and we have let that power lie dormant! Would it not be a vile[…]

Doctrine Without Fruit is Useless

The Hopeless Case Has More Hope of Answer

You see, the more you can prove that the sinner’s case is hopeless and bad, you have only proved that the sinner has the more reason for prayer. If I am the furthest from hope, why, then, he who wants to be heard and is a very long way off, must call[…]
