Less Than Half of UK 'Christians' Believe in the Resurrection of Christ

Less Than Half of UK 'Christians' Believe That Jesus Died and Rose Again - pjmedia.com

Excerpt from this article:

"According to Romans 10:9, 'If you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God hath raised him from the dead, you will be saved.' Those who do not believe in Jesus's death and Resurrection do not believe the gospel and are not truly Christians."
------------------------------------------

Obviously, these 'Christians' who don't believe in the resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ are religious, but they've never been born again. For more on this sad phenomenon, listen to Rev. Ian Brown's sermon...

Religion Without Regeneration: John Wesley's Testimony, by Rev. Ian Brown

The text for this sermon is Matthew 7:21-23:

"Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.
22 Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works?
23 And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity."

The following quote about John Wesley has been attributed to Pastor Charles Haddon Spurgeon (1834-1892):

"Most atrocious things have been spoken about the character and spiritual condition of John Wesley, the modern prince of Arminians. I can only say concerning him, that while I detest many of the doctrines which he preached, yet for the man himself, I have a reverence second to no Wesleyan; and if there were wanted two apostles to be added to the number of the twelve, I do not believe that there could be found two men more fit to be so added than George Whitfield and John Wesley. the character of John Wesley stands beyond all imputation for self-sacrifice, zeal, holiness, and communion with God; he lived far above the ordinary level of common Christians, and was one of whom the world was not worthy."
