    Is there a contradiction between God being near and nobody being able to come to Christ without the Father’s calling?

    God is Near Festival2001 Many of us can actually hear, deep within our hearts and minds, ministers’ voices declaring Christ’s words: “Nobody can come to me unless the spirit of the Father draws him.” As we hear these words, we feel a wall or a roadblock to even considering the subject of ...read more

    Your life & mine are in the hands of God, & He keeps the clock! So let’s think about God’s perfect timing in the O.T., in the life of Jesus Christ, and in our lives, too.

    As I began to study this portion of scripture in preparation for a sermon, a phrase jumped out at me as one that could be used to define all of mankind, in all of history. “...if perhaps they might grope for Him and find Him...” Now before I go any further with that, let me make clear that ...read more

    In a television program I watch there is an episode in which the minister stood up before the congregation. It was a vast sanctuary -- but it was almost empty. The minister looked out upon all of the empty seats and surveyed the 4 lonely people in the congregation -- one young man, and three ...read more

    Picture youself sitting in a small boat. Lean far to one side by following some foreign doctrine, the boat turns over, lean too far to the other side in not doing anything, the boat turns over. Balance is needed.

    How Does God's Word Taste?

    based on 9 ratings
     | 3,022 views

    Some love the taste of God’s Word, others hate. The way God’s Word taste to us will determine the way we live our lives here and it will determine where we spend eternity.

    “How does it taste?” If that isn’t the most asked question on cooking shows, I don’t know what is. What do you suppose is the most popular response to that question? “It tastes gross!” No, I don’t think I’ve ever heard that response before. After all, if you’re good enough to have your own cooking ...read more
