He enjoys studying the Puritans, Reformed Theology and Philosophy.
Every so often I flick through the channels of UK Christian television. Sometimes, very rarely, I see some God-centred, Christ honouring and Biblically saturated resources. Things which bring glory to God and edify my walk in Christ. But the sad reality is that on most occasions I have to switch it off because it vexes my spirit. Today was one of those days.
Two weeks ago, I knew nothing of John Doggett. I hadn’t even heard of his name. But today, I can say that the little I do know about him gives me reason to rejoice for the life he lived. The skills and talents this man had aquired during his life were put to good use. Indeed, a lesson for us all. May the Lord raise up many more John Doggett’s again so that the fame and glory of God’s name be spread throughout these lands. Read on.
Gospel essentials that evangelicals have generally agreed upon can be summarised as threefold. That men’s souls are lost, that conversion is a necessity and thirdly, that separation from the world should characterise the believer. However, the rise of liberalism in the nineteenth-century brought these and other Gospel truths into question. Read more.
Simi and I have just finished a month long break from eating meat. For the whole month of August we decided to become vegetarians and experience life in the vegetarian lane. The whole point of this month long exercise was to learn some valuable lessons. So let me share the meat and potatoes (pun intended) of what we learnt. Read on.
Far too often, our natural instinct is that we hurry to the library, seminary, books, websites and people for wisdom in dealing with particular situations in life. Whilst these may be beneficial and helpful, James tells us exactly where we should go for wisdom. Read on.
Deeply embedded within our language of popular adages, clichés, expressions, idioms, sayings and quotes are well known Bible verses. Most people who use them are probably blindly ignorant to the source of such of sayings.
God’s Word tells us that not only will we face trials, but we will face “various kinds of trials” (James 1:2). This could be a variety of trials in different forms, shapes and ways. However, our response to trials is what is to set us apart from the norm.
Our love for God is demonstrated through our worship of Him, our praise of Him, our time spent with Him and our acts towards Him. A love for God is demonstrated in walking with God and keeping His commandments.
I want to share a lesson learnt tonight from God’s Word. I am currently working my way through the Old Testament and have been thoroughly enjoying every moment of it. In particular, I find myself in the historical book of 2 Samuel and chapter 18. “I myself will also go out with you.” (2 Samuel [...]
Thirteen years ago to this day (26th May 1998) Emperor Akihito of Japan found himself addressing a Royal banquet at Buckingham Palace. Attended by the Queen, Duke of Edinburgh, Queen Mother and other senior Royals, the address by the Emperor touched upon many subjects. But it was his words about the “deep sorrow and pain” [...]
By Ray Comfort Most people have no idea that the entire Bible is about one person – Jesus of Nazareth. It speaks of Him from the Book of Genesis to the Book of Revelation. It tells us that He created all things, including the eyes you are using to see these words, the lungs that [...]
There aren’t many preachers and Pastor’s like David Wilkerson. He was one of a kind, a man after God’s heart and a Pastor who truly loved people. His story and his life of working with drug addicts and gangs in New York are seldom heard of today.
With all the false teaching today, many are confused whether Christ should be worshipped. What does the Bible say regarding this important question?
The centrality of the gospel is the very person of Christ. In other words, He is the good news. The good news is not the message in and of itself, but the very person and work of Jesus Christ. As Baxter points out “”our Lord’s message was Himself.” The gospel message, whilst eternity itself will not allow us to fathom it, is the truth that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners (1 Timothy 1:15).
