Only One Life

Only One Life

A poem by C.T. Studd, missionary

only one life twill soon be past poem ct studd

 

Two little lines I heard one day,
Traveling along life’s busy way;
Bringing conviction to my heart,
And from my mind would not depart;
Only one life, ’twill soon be past,
Only what’s done for Christ will last.
 
Only one life, yes only one,
Soon will its fleeting hours be done;
Then, in ‘that day’ my Lord to meet,
And stand before His Judgment seat;
Only one life, ’twill… Continue reading

Sovereign Grace Extremism

Sovereign Grace Extremism

sovereign grace preachers avoid preaching against sin

“Them that sin rebuke before all, that others also may fear.”
1 Timothy 5:20

 
There are some sovereign grace preachers who think they are doing God a service by not preaching against sin. They have taken such an extreme view of the gospel, that they feel any preaching against sin in the local church might cause some in their audience to think that salvation is by works. These churches end up ignoring all kinds of sinful… Continue reading

Does Faith Precede Regeneration

Does Faith Precede Regeneration In Salvation?

does faith precede regeneration in salvation

Saying that faith precedes regeneration – as many professing Christians believe – is like saying birth precedes conception. In contrast, regeneration prior to faith is not only a possibility, it is a necessity, although a case could be made for faith being simultaneous with regeneration, since it is regeneration that brings with it true faith (a gift from God – Ephesians 2:8), along with true repentance (also a gift from God – Acts 11:18).… Continue reading

Jehovahs Witnesses New World Translation Bible Changes

Jehovahs Witnesses New World Translation Bible Changes

 
This short article shows how the Jehovahs Witness Watchtower Society has purposely edited their own Bible to get it to agree with their false teaching regarding the Lord Jesus Christ. Since the Witnesses deny the godhood (deity) of the Lord Jesus Christ, they ran into a problem with their 1961 edition of their Bible because it mentioned in Hebrews 1:6 that angels worship Jesus. Since only God is to be worshipped, and… Continue reading

Christ Died For The Ungodly

by Horatius Bonar

The divine testimony concerning man is, that he is a sinner. God bears witness against him, not for him; and testifies that "there is none righteous, no, not one"; that there is "none that doeth good"; none "that understandeth"; none that even seeks after God, and, still more, none that loves Him (Psa. 14:1-3; Rom. 3:10-12). God speaks of man kindly, but severely; as one yearning over a lost child, yet as one who will make no terms with sin, and will "by no means clear the guilty." <continued>
