“When the LORD thy God shall cut off the nations from before thee, whither thou goest to possess them, and thou succeedest them, and dwellest in their land; take heed to thyself that thou be not snared by following them, after that they be destroyed from before thee; and that thou enquire not after their gods, saying, How did these nations serve their gods? even so will I do likewise. Thou shalt not do so unto the LORD thy God: for every abomination to the LORD, which he hateth, have they done unto their gods; for even their sons and … Continue reading Kidnapping is daycare?

Hell never looses…

Spurgeon 1861 AD “The idea is just this, that the love of Christ in the form of jealousy is as hard and as sternly relentless as is the grave and hell. Now hell never looses one of its bond-slaves. Once let the iron gate be shut upon the soul and there is no escape. When the ring of fire has once girdled the immortal spirit, none can dash through the flaming battlements. The dungeon is locked. The key is dashed into the abyss of destiny and never can be found. “Fixed is their everlasting state, could they repent ’tis now … Continue reading Hell never looses…

Love not the world…

“Jesus answered him, I spake openly to the world; I ever taught in the synagogue, and in the temple, whither the Jews always resort; and in secret have I said nothing. Why askest thou me? ask them which heard me, what I have said unto them: behold, they know what I said. And when he had thus spoken, one of the officers which stood by struck Jesus with the palm of his hand, saying, Answerest thou the high priest so? Jesus answered him, If I have spoken evil, bear witness of the evil: but if well, why smitest thou me? … Continue reading Love not the world…

Thou shalt see…

From Spurgeon sermon in 1861 AD    “I have but now one other point, and I shall not detain you, probably two moments while I dwell upon it, but the subject would not be complete without it. It has been said of some preachers of the word, and especially of me, that we delight to preach damnation and the fires of hell. I think that all who have heard me constantly, know that a more unfounded libel was never uttered against any living man: I have preached terrible sermons; they have been few and far between; but I have never … Continue reading Thou shalt see…

“And you hath he quickened, who were dead in trespasses and sins; wherein in time past ye walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience: among whom also we all had our conversation in times past in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind; and were by nature the children of wrath, even as others. But God, who is rich in mercy, for his great love wherewith he loved us, even when … Continue reading To have the faith…

He is able..

Spurgeon 1861 AD “He is able, for he is God……step out of all appearances, all hopes and fears suggested by your own feelings; come to the foot of his cross, and looking up into those eyes full of languid pity, and to those hands streaming with precious blood, say, “Jesus, I believe; help thou my unbelief,” and so thou shalt see whether he will not keep his word. If thou shouldst come to him and he should refuse thee, would he not have broken his promise? Did he not say, “Him that cometh unto me, I will in no wise … Continue reading He is able..
