The Spiritually Rich Church Series

Contributed by Phillip Day on Jan 31, 2007

Surrendered Saints

Contributed by Donnie Martin on Jan 4, 2010

God not only wants all men to be saved, but to also be surrendered to His will. Salvattion is but half of the equation. Unless the saint beoomes surrendered to the will of God, he cannot grow in grace, or be useful to an all-powerful God.

Surrendered Saints Text: Rom.12: 1-2 Intro: Stephen F. Olford has said, “What God wants today is new men, rather than new methods; surrendered people, rather than just saved people, for it is possible to be saved yet not surrendered.”(1) One doesn’t have to think about it too long to know that ...read more

In the parable of the 10 Virgins, Jesus uses a wedding to describe the excitement about the Rapture. But it's also a warning. Half of the community of believers will not be ready when He comes. The Midnight Cry should wake us all to preparation.

Testing Spirits In The World

Contributed by Stephen Belokur on Oct 9, 2020
