What is the Gospel? - RC Sproul

Here are some excerpts from this sermon:

"The gospel is the good news of the person and work of Jesus...Don't ever think that the gospel is your personal testimony, because it isn't...Jesus is the Christ and Jesus is our Lord. You Can't have the gospel if you eliminate the Lordship of Jesus."

'Real' Christian Churches in US Forced to Go Underground Soon?

'Real' Christian Churches in US Forced to Go Underground Soon? - christianpost.com (2011)

Excerpt from this article:

"Even the government in America has criminalized biblical preaching and prevented thousands of churches and clergymen from practicing their faith without threat of penalty from the authorities...'The Christian Church, I believe will be driven underground in America, as it has been in other nations around the globe. Otherwise, it will cease to exist in this land many firmly believe was founded by Christians,' Longstreet concluded."

--------------------------------

Strongly recommended sermon:

When Government Tries to Be God, by Dr. David P. Murray

The text for this sermon is Acts 4:19 (Audio):

"But Peter and John answered and said unto them, Whether it be right in the sight of God to hearken unto you more than unto God, judge ye. For we cannot but speak the things which we have seen and heard."

R.C. Sproul: The End & Purpose of the World

Here is a quote from Dr. Sproul's book Faith Alone: The Evangelical Doctrine of Justification:

"Does saving faith require a trust in the righteousness of Christ alone as the grounds of our justification? Or may a person have a different view of the gospel and still be a Christian?"

"The Reformation was waged, not over the issue of justification by faith, but over the issue of justification by faith alone. It was the Sola of Sola Fide that was the central point of dispute."

"One of the videos shows an incident from 2004, and the other two were recorded in January 2015, according to Sue Gough, a Defense Department spokeswoman. The videos became public after unauthorized leaks in 2007 and 2017, and the Navy previously verified their authenticity."

If You Aren't Paying Attention to the Latest UFO News, You Really, Really Should Be - townhall.com

Excerpt from this article:

"Elizondo's 'five observables' that differentiate UFO technology from known technology - instantaneous acceleration, hypersonic velocities, low observability, trans medium travel, and positive lift or anti-gravity - mean that, ailen or not, we're dealing with something that, if discovered, could potentially alter life as we know it in ways none of us can possibly imagine."

Amazing Grace (English & Swedish)

Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God - Jonathan Edwards (1703-1758)

"To the question, 'should one preach doctrine?' the Puritan answer would have been, 'Why? What else is there to preach?' Puritan preachers were not afraid to bring the profoundest theology into the pulpit if it bore on their hearers salvation...doctrinal preaching certainly bores the hypocrite; but it is only doctrinal preaching that will save Christ's sheep. The preacher's job is to proclaim the faith, not to provide entertainment for unbelievers. In other words, to feed the sheep and not amuse the goats." - A Quest for Godliness - The Puritan Vision of the Christian Life, by Dr. J.I. Packer

"Modern man would be rich if they fed off the crumbs that fell from the Puritans tables." - Pastor Charles Haddon Spurgeon (1834-1892)

Shlock Rock ft. The Maccabeats - Minyan Man

Note: This is not a Christian hymn - Yet! The Bible says:

"For I would not, brethren, that ye should be ignorant of this mystery, lest ye should be wise in your own conceits; that blindness in part is happened to Israel until the fulness of the Gentiles be come in. And so all Israel shall be saved..." - Romans 11:25,26a (Audio)

But there are many who believe we may be very close to the time when this "blindness" is lifted and Jews all over the world will accept our Lord Jesus as their long awaited Messiah!

And when that happens - and it will happen! - this Jewish hymn might be slightly rewritten so it could be included in...

Ten Shekels And A Shirt by Paris Reidhead (1919-1992)

From this sermon:

“But there was a difference. It wasn’t trying to convince good men that he was in trouble with a bad God. But it was to convince bad men that they deserve the wrath and anger of a good God. And the consequence was repentance that led to faith and led to life. Dear friends, there is only one reason for a sinner to repent, and that’s because Jesus Christ deserves the worship and adoration and the love and the obedience of his heart. Not because he’ll go to heaven. If the only reason you repented was to keep out of hell, you’re just a Levite with 10 shekels and a shirt, that’s all. You’re trying to serve God because he’ll do you good….I believe the people who God actually witnesses to them that they are born of him are the ones who come to God and say, ‘Lord Jesus, I’m going to obey you, and love you, and serve you, and do what you want me to do as long as I live even if I go to hell at the end of the road simply because you are worthy to be loved and obeyed and served, and I’m not trying to make a deal with you.’” – Paris Reidhead (1919-1992)
