Notice what Malachi says;
“…A child HONORS his father, and a servant HONORS his master. I am a father, so why don’t you respect me? I am a master, so why don’t you respect me? You priests do not respect me?
But you ask, ‘How have we shown you disrespect?’ You have shown it by

Dwight L. Moody was not very polished with his grammar because he did not have a great deal of formal education. When he spoke to a group of intellectuals at Oxford University he got so excited about the love of God that he said, "Don’t think that God don’t love ya, cause He do!" The passion and

I heard Howard Hendricks tell about a time early in his teaching ministry when he worked up a humdinger of a series on prayer. At the end of his study he knew more about prayer than he had ever imagined he could know. He had worked it into a grand presentation and couldn’t wait to preach it. As

A man went to church with an angel as guide. The church was filled, but oddly, there was no sound. The organist played, but no music could be heard; the choir’s lips moved, but no song came forth. The pastor went through the motions of preaching, but the man heard nothing. He asked the angel,

We missed him. Our chance to change things came and passed and we did not know it was there. A dark-skinned little boy sat through Sunday School classes for three years at a great Baptist Church (First Church, San Antonio) but some one missed him. His name was Sirhan Sirhan, and at age 24 he shot

Some people are only interested in Jesus' function as a sin-sacrifice, but do not want a relationship with Him. They will be disappointed when Jesus says, "Depart from me, I never knew you."
