His Only Son
You see, Abraham believed God, and he went far enough to let you and me know - God already knew - and to let the created universe know that he was willing to give his son. And so God counted it to him that he had done it.

God Created!
Evolution has never answered the question of how nothing becomes something. It always starts with a little amoeba or a garbage can or a little piece of seaweed or an animal up in a tree. Our minds must have something to start with, but the Bible starts with nothing. God created!

Christ’s Letter to the Church in Ephesus
The Lord Jesus Christ speaks to this church in the midst of crass materialism, degraded animalism, base paganism, and dark heathenism. Note this carefully, because I consider this message to be one of the most important of all.

The Infant King
The Scripture does not say when He was born; the important thing is that He was born. The Scripture does not say when He was crucified; the important thing is that He died for our sins.

No Child Left Behind
The parents of many young people may be lovely Christian people but they did not really train their children in Christian precepts and values. They were so anxious and ambitious for them to get on in the world that they lost them.

Encouragement for the Redeemed
Then David and the people that were with him lifted up their voice and wept, until they had no more power to weep.

A Convenient Season
And after certain days, when Felix came with his wife Drusilla, which was a Jewess, he sent for Paul, and heard him concerning the faith in Christ. And as he reasoned of righteousness, temperance, and judgment to come, Felix trembled, and answered, Go thy way for this time; when I have a convenient season, I will call for thee. (Acts 24:24, 25)

"Churchianity" Revealed
It's been degraded to the level of a bumper sticker which says, "Honk if you love Jesus!" If you love Jesus, you don't run around honking your horn. If you love Jesus you're going to live a life of obedience to Him.

The Ride of a Lifetime
So often we are rather brisk and even crude in our witnessing. Because we find it difficult, generally when we do it we are very amateurish. We do it so abruptly and in such a way that often it offends people. We need to be led by the Spirit of God.

The Judgment of Judah and Jerusalem
This betrayal of Christ in the name of Christianity is one reason for the moral and spiritual malaise with which this country is afflicted. The melancholy fact is that the churches no longer influence the development of national character.

In His Hand
As in the days of the judges, God still uses ordinary men who want to be used to accomplish His great purposes. God can use you if you want to be used, friends.

Father, Glorify Thyself!
There is a suffering that is connected with the cross of Christ that you and I cannot comprehend. He didn’t suffer at the hands of men only. That was bad enough, but He suffered beyond that. Our sins were put upon Him. “Surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows” (Isaiah 53:4).

God’s Prisoner
"Poor Paul, it’s too bad these Romans put you in jail.”
“They didn’t put me in jail.”
“Oh, we know what you mean. Those hateful religious rulers brought a charge against you.”
“They didn’t put me in jail, either.”
“Who did, then?”
“Jesus Christ. I’m His prisoner.”

The Sheep of a Wonderful Shepherd
My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me: and I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand. My Father, which gave them me, is greater than all; and no man is able to pluck them out of my Father’s hand. (John 10:27-29)

Truth and Love
We are not worth loving, but God loves us all. The important thing is that He tells believers to take the gospel to the world. That is the way that you and I can show our concern and love.

The Root of Rebellion
Your business is not to try to get someone else’s office or job. We have too much insane vanity among Christians wanting to be chairman of a board or to do something publicly.

The Gospel in a Nutshell
The question is: Do you have Christ? Is He your Savior? Are you trusting Him in such a way that no one on earth or in heaven can shake your confidence in Him? To be saved means you trust Christ and have Him as your Savior. He's our lifeboat. He's our lifeline. He's our only hope. We are lost without Him, but if we have Him, we have life.

The Attitude of Prayer
He opens two alternatives to any man who is living in difficult days. You and I will have to do one of the two. You will have to make up your mind which you are going to do. Men in difficult days will either faint or they will pray. Either there will be days of fear or days of faith.

Perfect Sight
Here is a remarkable miracle of our Lord. Surely there is no medicinal value in saliva, but the Lord uses this to increase the faith of this man. Why did He use this method? Couldn’t He have opened the eyes of this man as He did in other instances? Of course, He could have. He could have made this man see clearly at the very beginning. But there is a lesson for the man and a lesson here for us.

Esau and Jacob

Worthy to Be Believed
Unbelief is sin. I am willing to make this confession: I wish that I believed Him more. He is worthy to be believed; I ought to believe Him fully, but the problem is with me. And I suspect that the problem is with you, also.

The Mind Versus the Will of the Heart

Righteousness, Judgment, and Jerusalem
No prophet emphasizes the glory and the holiness of God more than Ezekiel. He saw the glory of God—that was the great vision he had at the beginning of his book. He never forgot it. And we should not forget it either.

Precious Blood Was Shed
