Concern for Other Men’s Souls – Charles Spurgeon Sermon
I speak the truth in Christ—I am not lying, my conscience confirms it through the Holy Spirit— 2 I have great sorrow and unceasing anguish in my heart. 3 For I could wish that I myself were cursed and cut off from Christ for the sake of my people, those of my own race, 4 the people of Israel. Theirs is the adoption to sonship; theirs the divine… Continue reading Concern for Other Men’s Souls – Charles Spurgeon Sermon
John MacArthur: Who Is Jesus?
Well, I was asked to speak on the subject “Who is Jesus?” That is very basic, but it’s certainly a question that a lot of people are struggling to answer. Some of you have been reading, recently, probably about the pseudo religion called Scientology. You know about Scientology?

The Prayer of Jabez – Charles Spurgeon Sermon
“Oh that thou wouldest bless me indeed!”—1 Chronicles 4:10 We know very little about Jabez, except that he was more honorable than his brethren, and that he was called Jabez because his mother bare him with sorrow.

The Fruit of the Spirit, Part 1
Galatians 5:16–26 We want to come back to Galatians chapter 5, Galatians chapter 5 for another look at walking by the Spirit, walking by the Spirit. We’ve slowed down a little bit here, and that’s justified, because this is so very foundational to our Christian lives. Chapter 5 and verse 16 – we’ll read down… Continue reading The Fruit of the Spirit, Part 1
