Lord make us to see our need The voice said, Cry. And he said, What shall I cry? All flesh is grass, and all the goodliness thereof is as the flower of the field: the grass withereth, the flower fadeth: because the spirit of the LORD bloweth upon it: surely the people is grass (Isa. […]
Christ Comes First Todd Nibert Christ said, “All that ever came before Me are thieves and robbers (John 10:8).” Obviously, anybody coming before Him who claimed to be the Messiah was a thief and robber. But He also means that anything that comes before Him in any aspect of salvation is a thief and robber. […]
There are many tyrants! (Henry Law, “Leviticus”) “If the Son shall make you free, you shall be free indeed.” John 8:36. Each soul, apart from Jesus, is a poor slave. There are many tyrants, and their yoke is hard. SATAN enchains the heart, and drags His vassals to vile service. They have no will; no […]
Numerous churches would describe themselves as “Christ centered”, and many preachers would describe their preaching as “Christ centered preaching”.

Continue In Prayer Tom Harding Continue in prayer, and watch in the same with thanksgiving; Withal praying also for us, that God would open unto us a door of utterance, to speak the mystery of Christ, for which I am also in bonds: That I may make it manifest, as I ought to speak. (Col. […]
GOD’S UNSTOPPABLE GOSPEL Acts 4: 1-4 Let the heathen rage and the people imagine a vain thing, hold forth the gospel of Christ Jesus alone and declare boldly that all flesh is grass. Carnal men have never once succeeded in their God-hating endeavors. Even at Calvary, they did what God had before determined to be […]
The subject of this Psalm is the establishment of David upon the throne of Israel, notwithstanding the opposition by his enemies. But the eye of faith shall clearly see that this is “The Psalm of Messiah the King;” and it sets forth the rage of the wicked against the Lord’s anointed, the purpose of God […]
What Religious Folks Really Hate Acts 6: 11-14. 1. They said that he speaks blasphemy against Moses. It is unheard of in scripture to blaspheme a man, only God can be blasphemed.
