A Gospel Too Small

2010-12-31T07:35:00.000-08:00

Another awesome quote from Of First Importance

“A gospel which is only about the moment of conversion but does not extend to every moment of life in Christ is too small.

A gospel that gets your sins forgiven but offers no power for transformation is too small.

A gospel that isolates one of the benefits of union with Christ and ignores all the others is too small.

A gospel that must be measured by your own moral conduct, social conscience, or religious experience is too small.

A gospel that rearranges the components of your life but does not put you personally in the presence of God is too small.”

One of my favorite sermons my pastor has done lately that seems very fitting for this blog:
Preach the Word

God is For Us

2010-06-22T12:58:00.001-07:00

“Is God for us, despite our sin? Joyfully the Christian answers, ‘Yes.’ But why is He for us? Simple indeed is the Christian answer to that question: He is for us simply because He has chosen to be.

He surely has a right to receive whom He will into His fellowship: and as a matter of fact He has chosen to receive us poor sinners who trust in Christ; He chose to receive us when He gave Christ to die. It was His act, not ours.”

—J. Gresham Machen, What Is Faith?

Francis Chan - Majesty and Glory of God

2010-06-20T18:10:00.000-07:00

Overcomers

2010-05-14T09:19:00.000-07:00

“How dare you approach the mercy-seat of God on the basis of what kind of day you had, as if that were the basis for our entrance into the presence of the sovereign and holy God? No wonder we cannot beat the Devil. This is works theology. It has nothing to do with grace and the exclusive sufficiency of Christ. Nothing.

Do you not understand that we overcome the accuser on the ground of the blood of Christ? Nothing more, nothing less. That is how we win. It is the only way we win. This is the only ground of our acceptance before God. If you drift far from the cross, you are done. You are defeated.

We overcome the accuser of our brothers and sisters, we overcome our consciences, we overcome our bad tempers, we overcome our defeats, we overcome our lusts, we overcome our fears, we overcome our pettiness on the basis of the blood of the Lamb.”

—D.A. Carson, Scandalous: The Cross and Resurrection of Jesus

Paul Washer - This is War

2009-11-01T18:32:00.000-08:00

Another AWESOME excerpt from a Paul Washer sermon. To hear the whole thing click here.

Listening to this sermon reminded me of how easy it is to gain knowledge from the Bible, from preachers, from church etc. but how hard it is to apply it. Unfortunately, knowledge that is not applied is pointless. I want to challenge you (and me) to apply what we learn, apply it to our lives and become more like HIM. Conviction isn't just a feeling, it requires actions. If we are convicted by what God is teaching us through His Word and through others - DO something about it. May we all BECOME more like HIM in actions and not just "think" about it :-)

John Piper - Farewell, Death

2009-04-13T16:44:00.000-07:00

I found this on a site that I love called Of First Importance and decided to share it.

CHRISTIAN:
Hello, Death, my old enemy. My old slave-master. Have you come to talk to me again? To frighten me?
I am not the person you think I am. I am not the one you used to talk to. Something has happened. Let me ask you a question, Death.
Where is your sting?

DEATH, sneeringly:
My sting is your sin.

CHRISTIAN:
I know that, Death. But that’s not what I asked you. I asked, where is your sting? I know what it is. But tell me where it is.
Why are you fidgeting, Death? Why are you looking away? Why are you turning to go? Wait, Death, you have not answered my question. Where is your sting?
Where is, my sin?
What? You have no answer? But, Death, why do you have no answer? How will you terrify me, if you have no answer?
O Death, I will tell you the answer. Where is your sting? Where is my sin? It is hanging on that tree. God made Christ to be sin—my sin. When he died, the penalty of my sin was paid. The power of it was broken. I bear it no more.
Farewell, Death. You need not show up here again to frighten me. God will tell you when to come next time. And when you come, you will be his servant. For me, you will have no sting.

O death, where is your victory? O death, where is your sting? The sting of death is sin, and the power of sin is the law.But thanks be to God, who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ. (1 Corinthians 15:55-57)
