Every man needs to watch this powerful message by Voddie! SDG

Isaiah 6:1-10 I love the gospel! You might get sick of me speaking about this all the time, but I will not apologize for this wonderful truth we call the Gospel. See as a Christian……..I breathe the gospel, I eat the gospel, I live the gospel, I sleep the gospel, I am the gospel, I proclaim the gospel! You may be a person here this morning thinking to yourself "that’s not me Mike, I can’t do that [I’m to shy and unlearned in the master of evangelism]."  Yes! You might be unlearned and not everyone is called to stand on the street corner preaching the gospel from a milk container.  Yes! Not everyone is called like my buddy Kirk who goes out every day on the streets of Nova Scotia to share the good news of the Gospel.  Yes! Not everyone is called to go to another part of the world to share the gospel. But! We are all called to live and share the gospel at every opportunity none the less, no matter how new or uneduc...

One word! AMEN! SDG

Joshua 14:6-15 When you think of the word disciple what comes to mind? Serving, to follow after? If so you’re on the right train. A disciple by definition is: According to the New Oxford American Dictionary a disciple is “a follower, fanatic, believer, student, and supporter."

The Unbelievers were using this to put down the Disciples. They said they were acting just like a Little Jesus....[ Luke wrote this “ The Disciples were called Christians first at Antioch.” Acts 11:26b]...

1 John 2:15-16 It always amazes me every time I read an article or blog post about how we try to so hard to fit in, when we are told not too by the One that grants us eternal life through the Gospel. Now, I’m not referring to the idea that we become monks or isolate ourselves on an island away from people and lost sinners. I’m referring to the fact that so many so called Christian’s are sometimes more fascinated with this world then they are with eternal things [ meaning standing and desiring to look into face of Jesus, the one that saved my wretched soul ]. Remember what Jesus said “I do not ask that you take them out of the world, but that you keep them from the evil one. They are not of the world, just as I am not of the world.” John 17:15-16. As Leonard Ravenhill boldly said “ Is the world crucified to you tonight? Or does it fascinate you?" See throughout the Scriptures we read passages like....... Isa 13:11 “I will punish the world for its evil, and th...
