Truth About The Asbury Revival

This post contains a 15-minute video, a careful biblical critique of the Asbury revival. I was curious about the event myself and appreciated all the sources he used in drawing conclusions about this event. I listed several points about the peripheral benefits of listening to his video; points which touch the purpose of this blog.

Precious Remedies Against Satan’s Devices – Thomas Brooks

The following are the 12 DEVICES that Satan uses to draw the soul to sin. I included no REMEDIES that Brooks noted in his book, but wanted readers to know these such that they might be moved to read his book. Usually, Brooks provided 4 – 8 remedies about each device, in a few cases, more.

Am I Right With God – Pastor Patrick Hines

The 1-minute video of this post provides foundational biblical information via which one can assess his walk with God; that is, are you coming by faith or by works.

There are links herein, to hear Ramsey’s sermons on Faith and Works; also links to Hines’ and Ramsey’s Sermon Audio sermon pages. I noticed that Pastor Hines also has some very relevant recent sermons on this topic.
