We Say We Want Revival
Christian: We say we want revival, but are we praying fervently for one? Are we confessing and forsaking our sins? Are we weeping over lost souls? Are we sharing the Gospel with those who are perishing?
Just In Case
Tesla 2009 Forever More Album
The other day I was thinking about how I used to really like the band Tesla. (This is not an endorsement for the band. They cuss in many of their songs and some songs are inappropriate). But I remembered that I saw Tesla in concert about 10 years ago, literally just two blocks down the street. Then in 2008 they had a song called Just in Case. [Read more…]
Jesus Healer and Savior
I want to start off tonight by reading Matthew 8:1-13: When he was come down from the mountain, great multitudes followed him.
2 And, behold, there came a leper and worshipped him, saying, Lord, if thou wilt, thou canst make me clean.
3 And Jesus put forth his hand, and touched him, saying, I will; be thou clean. And immediately his leprosy was cleansed. [Read more…]
There’s Nothing Wrong With Black Friday
There’s nothing wrong with Black Friday. There’s nothing wrong with looking for good deals. Black Friday should still be on the Friday after Thanksgiving instead of Thanksgiving evening. But there’s nothing wrong with getting a good deal. A few years ago when Black Friday was still on Friday, I went out witnessing with a bunch of people at 4 am and then around 7 or 8 am that morning I ran by a store and bought a bicycle for my daughter that was really cheap and it was the last one that the store had in her size. That was very exciting. [Read more…]
Are You Absolutely Wrong?
Are you an atheist? Are there any hardcore atheists out here tonight? Are you a staunch atheist? Are you a gung ho atheist tonight? If so I want to talk to you. I want to know if you say that there are no absolutes. Are there absolutes or is everything relative? No absolutes you say? Are you absolutely wrong? [Read more…]
God is a Seeking God
Have you ever thought about the fact that we are made in God’s image? Have you ever thought about the magnitude of being made in the image of God? I’m not sure that we can really even wrap our minds around this – at least I can’t. God made us in His image!
Would a Loving God Really Send People to Hell?
A while back I was praying for the salvation of my grown kids and it broke my heart thinking about them spending eternity being tormented in Hell if they die in their sins. They will suffer unbearable pain, day and night with no relief and the smoke of their torment will rise forever. This will happen to them if they die as unrepentant sinners. [Read more…]
Unmasked
Last weekend was the Halloween Pub Crawl and several of us were out here witnessing. We saw many people last Saturday night dressed up in costumes. Many people were wearing masks last Saturday. I suspect that we will see people out here tonight who are wearing masks, since it’s Halloween. So right now I want to ask if any of you out here tonight that are dressed up in costumes, are Christians? Are there any Christians out here tonight that are all dressed up in costumes, wearing masks and do you intend to head to the bars and drink or head off to a party and get drunk tonight? Do we have any Christians out here that will admit that they are doing this? [Read more…]
Is Jesus Your Drinking Buddy?
Recently we were out here street witnessing and I talked to a young man that had been drinking. I asked if he’d been drinking and he said “what does that matter?” Then I asked him if he was headed to a bar and he said that he was. So I asked him if Jesus was his drinking buddy and he said “Yes He is.” The young man then proceeded to tell me that he guarantees that he’s won more people to Christ by going into the bars than I have by proclaiming the Gospel on the street.
