    Diabolical opposition to the gospel.

    TROUBLE AT PHILIPPI. Acts 16:16-34. One of the hazards of church planting is a problem of space: where and when to gather for worship. Of course, small groups can meet in our homes: but the very beginning of gospel work might, in suitable climates, take place outdoors (cf. Acts 16:13). But ...read more

    It’s ironic that when dealing with these positive commandments, we don’t ever come to a point when we can say, “I have fulfilled them.”

    The amazing thing is that the more we eat the Bread of Life, the hungrier for him we become. Once we have started to experience Jesus’s grace and goodness, we actually want more of him! Your appetite for Christ won’t decrease the more you get to know him, but increase.

    We often hear Christians say that they believe the Lord Jesus is coming soon to gather His church.

    When some Christians say that, it makes you wonder why they say that. I say this because their life-styles do not reflect that they believe He is going to come very soon.
