Passion 4 Him

( Following quote by Dave Hunt ) "And the woman was arrayed in purple and scarlet colour, and decked with gold and precious stones and pearls, having a golden cup in her hand full of abominations and filthiness of her fornication.... And the woman which thou sawest is that great city, which reigneth over the kings of the earth . And here is the mind which hath wisdom. The seven heads are seven mountains [or hills], on which the woman sitteth." Revelation:17:3,4,18,9 A woman rides the beast that represents Antichrist and the revived Roman Empire he will rule. She is a city built on seven hills that reigns over the kings of the earth! John equates the readers' acceptance of this revelation with "wisdom." That insight demands our careful and prayerful attention. Many prophecy teachers insist that the woman is the United States. No, the US is a country . It might justifiably be referred to as Sodom, considering the honor now given to homosexua...

( The following is a quote by Dave Hunt )   "The culprit which has been the major cause of the rapid and deep slide into immorality in the last forty years is generally promoted rather than opposed by those leading the crusade against immorality. That culprit is psychology. Psychology's redefining of sin as sickness has excused immorality and thus encouraged it. Instead of being held accountable and called upon to repent, the sinner is diag nosed as in need of "therapy." Everything from disobedience to murder is excused these days as some kind of syndrome or addiction. Adulterers are now "sex addicts" whose insurance covers lengthy "treatment" at Christian psychiatric hospitals. Christ's command to "Go and sin no more" (Jn:8:11) is "too simplistic" these days. The explosion of crime, rebellion and immorality has coincided with the exponential growth of psychology since the early 1950s, a growth which is s...

By John MacArthur What do you think of when you hear the words “work out”? You probably think of gymnasiums, weights, and all sorts of fitness equipment. Hard work, commitment, time, and resources are necessary to grow and strengthen our physical bodies. While exercise is popular in America today, it’s certainly nothing new. Paul made use of this familiar imagery in his letter to the believers in Philippi. In Philippians 2:12-13 , Paul’s exhortation for believers to exercise their spiritual growth comes down to those two simple, familiar words: “work out.” But the workout Paul refers to is far more strenuous than a short jog on a treadmill—and it makes a much greater impact in your life. Doing the Work The principle of working out one’s salvation has two aspects. The first pertains to personal conduct, to faithful, obedient daily living . Such obedience obviously involves active commitment and personal effort. Scripture is replete with injunctions, both negative and...

    Monday, July 07, 2014 By John MacArthur   The Christian life is anything but a passive pursuit. The New Testament commands believers to “be all the more diligent” (2 Peter 1:10), to take “every thought captive to the obedience of Christ” (2 Corinthians 10:5), to “strive to enter through the narrow door” (Luke 13:24), to “run” that we may obtain the prize (1 Corinthians 9:24), and to “work out” our salvation (Philippians 2:12). Our spiritual growth clearly involves human exertion. But what, then, are we to make of God’s sovereignty over our growth? In recent years, that question has fueled intense theological debate on the driving force behind sanctification. Is spiritual growth produced by the believer or is it sovereignly performed by God? In Philippians 2:12–13, Paul lays it out as a paradoxical truth: So then, my beloved, just as you have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence,  work out your salvation  ...

This is a powerful piece!!! Listen and read along! Lyrics I'm a girl 21 years old On my way home Car crashes Bones break Body tossed into the windshield like a acrobatic rag doll Brain playing ping pong with my skull Crushed arteries shoot blood around the car like vampires playing paintball Lungs, committing suicide with the air Chest heaving In and out like a child overdosing on asthma attacks Two seconds later, my body, laid there limp like an aborted fetus that was ripped from its temporary home And after this poem, just like me, Everybody at the sound of my voice will die. I had to realize the hard way that Death, he has no age, he Takes no fun in catching up To those who already expect his arrival. If you were death, would you rather take the 80 year old preacher, On his deathbed singing to Jesus about going up yonder or, The 18 year old boy at the club, thinking that he got his whole life to live right, oblivious that he's 5 hea...

"God has made us eternal beings. Every person ever born will continue in existence forever either in the ecstatic bliss of God's presence (Ps:16:11) or in the unimaginable horror and remorse of separation from Him forever. The choices we make, the manner of life we live and our attitude toward God, His Word and others carry consequences not only for this life but for eternity. Life on earth is short; eternity never ends. That fact is awesome to contemplate and in itself should cause us to live by faith in Him."  -Dave Hunt

By John MacArthur What did Jesus set out to accomplish? Did His death and resurrection have any practical effect for this life, or was it all focused on eternity? Consider this: the holy Son of God set aside His glory, humbled Himself by taking the form of a man, lived a righteous life, and willingly surrendered Himself as a perfect sacrifice for the sins of others. Was all intended merely to forgive sin without removing it? The apostle John wrote his first epistle to help his readers test the authenticity of their faith. These tests come down to examining whether Christ’s work has had its necessary effect on their lives. And in 1 John 3:5-8 , he makes it clear that Christ’s work on our behalf ought to have a significant sanctifying impact in the lives of His people. You know that He appeared in order to take away sins; and in Him there is no sin. No one who abides in Him sins; no one who sins has seen Him or knows Him. Little chil...

  This is a question we have been asked many times in our 23 years of ministry. We must answer it with the authority of God's Word. When Catholics repent and believe the Gospel of God, they are born again and the indwelling Holy Spirit will lead them out of spiritual darkness into the glorious light of Jesus Christ (Mark 1:15; Eph. 1:13-14). As they abide in God's Word, they will know the truth and the truth will set them free from religious bondage and deception (John 8:31-32). Then they will look for a church that worships God in Spirit and truth because that is the kind of worshippers God seeks (John 4:24). Anyone who says they have been born again, yet refuses to leave a false religion that deceives people with another gospel, must examine themselves to see if they have genuine saving faith (2 Cor. 13:5). Christians are called to walk according to the truth which means, as they become more and more passionate for the truth, they will turn away from any fals...
