more A. W. Pink P ink reserved some of his harshest criticism for those whom he saw as corrupting the gospel message with easy-believism. “The evangelism of the day is not only superficial to the last degree, but it is radically defective.” (Studies on Saving Faith, 1930) Pink clearly foresaw, even in the 1930′s, major [...]

I have been thinking a lot lately about what it really means, and what it really looks like, to be a follower of Jesus.  Is it going to church?  Is it having a quiet time every day?  Is it praying a certain amount of time each day?  Is it tithing to your church?  Is it [...]

it’s exhausting excercising faith into things that keep disappointing you even after you say how disappointed you feel. why can’t things just change when you need them to? ugh. the world would be such a better place but there’s obviously too many damn people on earth for that to be accomplished in a lifetime. one [...]

B elievers cannot lose the habits, the seeds, the root of grace; yet they may lose assurance, which is the beauty and fragrancy, the crown and glory of grace. 1 John 3-9 | 1 Peter1-5 © 2008.

T he nature of true, saving faith is presented in the Bible as essential to a believer, more so than just mental assent or knowledge of Jesus. Not all faith is saving; only faith that is evidenced by obedience is redemptive. © 2007. To copyright holder. John MacArthur, Jr. in his book The Gospel According [...]
