Comments Off on Salvation: How to Be Absolutely Sure

Some time ago, on a flight to Oregon, I sat next to a woman who asked where I was going. “Sisters, Oregon,” I answered. “Do you know where it is?” Assuring me that she did, the woman asked, “What’s your business there?” After I said I was writing a book about how we can be […]

Rick Warren and Roman Catholics

July 13, 2010

By Ken Silva He is a double-minded man, unstable in all his ways. (James 1:8) Why Are Evangelical Leaders Silent About Warren’s Sin? Unfortunately Dr. John Piper made an ill-advised decision to bring in Purpose Driven Pope Rick Warren for the Desiring God Conference 2010 as the keynote speaker. The online apologetics and discernment work Apprising Ministries has been among those who’ve been reporting […]

Growth in Grace

July 13, 2010

Comments Off on Growth in Grace

When I speak of growth in grace, I do not for a moment mean that a believer’s interest in Christ can grow. I do not mean that he can grow in safety, acceptance with God, or security. I do not mean that he can ever be more justified, more pardoned, more forgiven, more at peace […]

Loving Christ

Comments Off on Loving Christ

“This precious value, then, is for you who believe” (1 Pet. 2:7). First Peter 2:7 speaks of the believer’s affection for Christ as contrasted to an unbeliever’s rejection of Him.

By Mike Ratliff This persuasion is not from him who calls you. A little leaven leavens the whole lump. I have confidence in the Lord that you will take no other view than mine, and the one who is troubling you will bear the penalty, whoever he is. (Galatians 5:8-10 ESV) One of the first […]

A Living Sacrifice

July 9, 2010

Comments Off on A Living Sacrifice

“Offer up spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ” (1 Pet. 2:5). In Romans 12:1 Paul pleads with believers to present their bodies to God as a living and holy sacrifice, which is an appropriate and acceptable act of worship.

Comments Off on Is Heaven Our Default Destination…or Is Hell?

By Randy Alcorn The safest road to hell is the gradual one—the gentle slope, soft underfoot, without sudden turnings, without milestones, without signposts. — C. S. Lewis For every American who believes he’s going to Hell, there are 120 who believe they’re going to Heaven. This optimism stands in stark contrast to Christ’s words in […]
