For God did not call us to uncleanness, but in holiness. Therefore he who rejects this does not reject man, but God, who has also given us His Holy Spirit. – 1 Thessalonians 4:7-8 As pointed out in Dear “Carnal Christian”, the visible church is overburdened with professing Christians who have never been truly converted.

Comments Off on The Cost of Becoming a Disciple

By Dane Gardow Because of horrible evangelism, religious lies, and itching ears, a majority of people have been led to believe that becoming a Christian is as easy as praying a simple prayer and requires very little cost or no cost at all.

We Must Be Holy

J.C. Ryle (emphases added) We must he holy on earth before we die, if we desire to go to heaven after death. If we hope to dwell with God for ever in the life to come, we must endeavour to be like Him in the life that now is. We must not only admire holiness, […]

Who Am I According to God? Who Are You?

I am not good (Romans 3:12). I was a sinner in rebellion against Almighty God (Romans 3:23; 1 John 3:4). I loved my sin and I loved darkness (John 3:19 ; Psalm 36:1-4) I was a mere hearer of the Word (James 1:22). My righteous acts were filthy rags (Isaiah 64:6). I was a thief, […]
