The opening paragraphs in Francis Schaeffer’s book: True Spirituality.
The question before us is what the Christian life, true spirituality, really is, and how it may be lived in a twentieth century setting. The first point which we must make is that it is impossible even to begin living the Christian life, or to [...] http://wayoflife.org/files/ecdf6e9b44bbdb45aeac57fb4e7e099d-816.html CONTEMPORARY CHRISTIAN MUSICIANS AND THE BEATLES One of the reasons why we are opposed to Contemporary Christian Music is its worldliness, its refusal to separate from the world. Contemporary Christian musicians make no attempt to hide the fact that they love secular rock & roll and they have no shame for doing so. When [...] Proverb 2:1-9 My son, if thou wilt receive my words, and hide my commandments with thee; (2) So that thou incline thine ear unto wisdom, and apply thine heart to understanding; (3) Yea, if thou criest after knowledge, and liftest up thy voice for understanding; (4) If thou seekest her as silver, and searchest for [...] 2Chronicles 36:8-16 Now the rest of the acts of Jehoiakim, and his abominations which he did, and that which was found in him, behold, they are written in the book of the kings of Israel and Judah: and Jehoiachin his son reigned in his stead.

We must laugh, be hugged, entertained, isn’t that what the Bible teaches? Lighten up, preacher, take it easy, cut some corners, they say. But God’s man knows such things won’t cut it on judgment day. The pastor should ease up on doctrine, and try to just [...] Psa 119:11 Thy word have I hid in mine heart, that I might not sin against thee. If God’s Word is not being read, then how do I know for sure what is sin and what is good in my life.

(3) Yet [...] John 6:35-44 And Jesus said unto them, I am the bread of life: he that cometh to me shall never hunger; and he that believeth on me shall never thirst.
