The Christian song in this post is based on a William Cowper poem. From the video narrative: “Cowper became close friends with the Evangelical clergyman John Newton; together they co-authored the Olney Hymns, which was first published in 1779 and included Newton’s famous hymn “Amazing Grace.” Of the 68 hymns Cowper wrote, “Oh for a closer walk with God” and “God moves in a mysterious way” are the most well known.”
The Christian music in this post is based on Revlation 3:10-13; and Isaiah 41:10. Much Christian music these days is based on the opinions of the artists and not on real Bible verses. God the Holy Spirit saves people via scripture, not opinions of man. Also, if you use Christian music to stir up your heart for Bible study or personal worship, then hearing scripture as you listen has to be more spiritually beneficial. Additionally, if you grew up listening to rock music from the baby boomer generation, then you will like the music in this video.
The 22-minute video in this post addresses the following: the unity of the covenants of the Bible, Old and New Testaments; why faith is the only way of salvation; why works, obedience to the law, cannot save anyone; and why the doctrines of old-school Dispensationalism, which ascribe to God, two different ways of salvation in the Bible, are erroneous. Sermon highlight points are provided.
The 10-minute devotional of this post teaches the value of parents taking concerns about children to Christ in prayer; it also emphasized His readiness to help the young. Furthermore, the reader mentioned lessons we should get from the text. The reader has wonderful voice and style, and he used beautiful music to accent his reading. If you’re a parent, please listen
This post contains an mp3 sermon by Pastor Patrick Ramsey on Galatians 2:15-21. The way of salvation is not by works of the law. His sermon explained in great detail why this is so. Sermon points include more information than usual because this is an important point to grasp – every religion in the world, except Christianity, [and many of them wrongly] believes that one can earn righteousness to satisfy God’s wrath against sin… to get into heaven. The Bible says that is not true. The book of Galatians makes that very clear
The 28-minute, mp3 sermon in this post discusses Galatians 2:11-14. Therein, Paul rebuked Peter for leading Galatians astray from the true biblical gospel…. In the process, pastor Ramsey clarified how Peter’s actions resulted in a message of hypocrisy to those present; also, that there has only been one gospel message since Abraham, the father of the faithful; that no one in the Old Testament was saved by keeping the law of Moses…. Below his sermon, I supplied some scriptures that indicate that Abraham believed God by Faith, as did all Old Testament believers who were saved. [Many Christians today believe that the Old Testament was about Law and the New, grace. No, all salvation has been by grace since God chose a people to call to himself, beginning with Abraham]
In the 18-minute video of this post, Pastor Patrick Hines explains two fallacies that undermine the worldviews of people who go around saying, “the science says;” and those who subscribe to the theory of evolution. By knowing the contents of this video, Christians can also gain some understanding into how it is that one’s presuppositions form the basis for his worldview and one’s worldview determines how one explains the world around him.
Jesus told a parable of a great banquet. Although many guests were invited, they began making excuses once the feast drew near. Today, R.C. Sproul continues his series in the gospel of Luke, urging us to examine where we stand regarding the Lord’s ultimate invitation.
