“For the Son of God, Jesus Christ, whom we proclaimed among you, Silvanus and Timothy and I, was not Yes and No, but in him it is always Yes. For all the promises of God find their Yes in him. That is why it is through him that we utter our Amen to God for his glory.”
Preachers of the Gospel, rest well tonight. For tomorrow you will wage a won war; you will pillage a defeated foe; you exalt a once-crucified now reigning-King; you will liberate grace-purchased exiles; you will fuel our passion for Jesus, and his return. Thank you, in advance.
Is there an option to simply elect all three @McElroyFamily brothers as one super president? Just put America’s problems on yahoo answers and they’ll fix it in like 3 weeks.
a nonbeliever recently said to me “u use God as a crutch, i wonder if u can stand on ur own?” the truth is, i can’t. & i have no shame admitting i NEED my Savior. every moment of every day, i need Him. i tried doing life w/out Him & failed miserably.
Maybe -- just maybe -- four decades of gospel-deficient, application-focused preaching and teaching isn't good for us. Maybe pragmatic Christianity makes pragmatic Christians with pragmatic theology.
People say things like “won’t we get bored doing the same thing for all eternity in heaven?” then post a picture of the sunset every day with the caption “so beautiful. This never gets old.”
Christian liberty is not freedom from inconvenience or the freedom to do whatever I personally want.
Christian liberty is freedom from self-centeredness, freedom from greed, freedom from tribalism, freedom from hedonism.
Christian liberty is the freedom to love my neighbor.
At the risk of sounding self serving, but as someone who talks to pastors all over the country on a weekly basis, here is my question:
Why are people giving their pastors such a hard time right now?
Because the story is the same, EVERYWHERE.
