Comments Off on Can Christians become too heavenly-minded?

No! It may sound paradoxical to say this, but heaven should be at the center of the Christian worldview. A proper Christian worldview is uniquely focused heavenward.Though some would deride that as escapism, it is, after all, the very thing Scripture commands: “Set your mind on things above, not on things on the earth” (Col.

Comments Off on Why Don’t They Stir Themselves?

By Leonard Ravenhill America cannot fall – because she is already fallen! This goes for Britain, too. She cannot go into slavery – because her people are fettered at the moment in the chains of self-forged, self-chosen moral anarchy. Here are millions, diseased morally, with no longing for healing.
