Vance Havner sermon outline

[Vance Havner @VanceHavner]

We have been saved out of the world; we still must live in the world; we are not of the world; we have been saved to go back into the world to win others out of it, and that is the only business we have in the world!

Sin has gotten man into more trouble than science can get him out of.

[Vance Havner @VanceHavner]

The Bible records one long continued clash between institutionalized religion and the prophet. Today religion was never more organized, but prophets are scarce. John the Baptist is still no favorite in the courts of Herod.

A picture of Christ was hung in the back of the pulpit. When the minister rose to speak one Sunday morning, a little boy asked his mother, "Mother, who is that man who stands so we can't see Jesus?"

America is fractured and fragmented into hundreds of little groups wanting their own rights while nobody seems to care what happens to the country. A house divided against itself cannot stand.

Sometimes we drive the automobile into the repair shop and say, "Check the motor." It is time we church workers drove into God's repair shop and asked Him to "check the motive." Why do you do what you do in church?

We are back up and posting on the Vance Havner facebook page. Usually there are 5-7 posts a week. Follow along. This 20th century prophet said more in one sentence than most of us can say in 3 pages.

Only when a man comes to the end of his own little inch does he reach the beginning of God’s infinity. Man’s extremity is God’s opportunity.

Most of us make the mistake of trying to change our circumstances instead of changing ourselves.

Living by proxy: We don’t go direct to the garden of life for our food; we live on mental and spiritual canned... https://t.co/EmDG8At7Ft

[Vance Havner @VanceHavner]

Negative thoughts are the germs of the spiritual life that infect us with poisons that undermine our integrity and destroy our soul health.

[Vance Havner @VanceHavner]

God help us to keep our childlike sense of wonder. May we rise every morning wondering what God will do today.
