The Fact Of Scripture Over The Words Of Fools

Contributed by Donald Whitchard on May 23, 2021

In 1910, evangelist Dr. R.A. Torrey presented a series of revival messages, that are still powerful in their ability to make people think about their souls and the need for a Savior. This is a revision of one of those messages given before an audience in Edwardian England, still relevant today.

The Scriptures do not soothe ruffled feelings nor do they strengthen egos devoid of belief in or trust of God. An atheist is, in God's eyes, a FOOL (Psalm 14:1). Human pride and self-centeredness are roadblocks we set up with help from the enemy of our souls to deafen and blind ourselves to ...read more

Salvation And Repentance Series

Contributed by Brett Crosson on Jun 25, 2019

For a person to come to Christ they must repent of their sins. This message encourages people to repent.

WHAT IS REPENTANCE? 1. Repentance is more than ‘sorrow for sin’. If I were caught for speeding and given a heavy fine, I would be very sorry, but that would not prove my repentance. I might just be sorry I got caught! 2. Repentance, instead, would mean sorrow for a good and wise law that I had ...read more
