-
-
- Will we fight against God or will we fight against Satan?
-
- We press on in faith, knowing our God is greater!!!
-
- Will we fight against God or will we fight against Satan?

- The true church of Christ is a pillar and buttress of the truth!!!

- I “feel” what I believe is true! Wrong! feelings have nothing to do with it

- It goes against our nature to yield to God’s sovereignty in all things
-
-
- If we don’t examine our truths with the Word of God, we risk falling for a lie
- It is time for a new Reformation – the world has creeped into the church!

-
- I challenge you to, look at the history of the Church
-
- The modern alter call?
-
- 1850’s for sanctification – Come before God as unworthy
- 1900’s for salvation – Come to receive Jesus into your heart
-
- Sinners Prayer???
-
- Can one be saved who never repeated after me?
- Does walking the isle or repeating after me save?
- Will God reward you for your raising of the hand?
-
- If a reward then it is not grace
-
-
- Sinners Prayer???
-
-
- How is someone saved?
-
- By hearing the word, by God changing the heart
- By God revealing sin to the sinner and need for repentance
- Not saved by the decisions of men or other men sparking emotions
-
- Charles Finney – Almost worshiped by the charismatics
-
- Revival is NOT a miracle, we can bring it about?

- The charismatics don’t believe in Preservation of the Saints
-
- Because man brings man in
-
-
- Now we schedule revivals
-

-
- So if saying a sinners prayer is the ONLY way, none were saved for 1800 years
- To say we must do something, is what Paul had against the Galatians

Greetings, I believe your website might be having internet browser compatibility issues. When I look at your blog in Safari, it looks fine but when opening in Internet Explorer, it has some overlapping issues. I simply wanted to provide you with a quick heads up! Aside from that, great blog!
I’m the owner of JustCBD Store label (justcbdstore.com) and I am currently seeking to expand my wholesale side of company. I am hoping anybody at targetdomain is able to provide some guidance ! I considered that the most effective way to do this would be to reach out to vape stores and cbd stores. I was hoping if anybody could suggest a qualified site where I can get CBD Shops Business Mailing List I am already considering creativebeartech.com, theeliquidboutique.co.uk and wowitloveithaveit.com. On the fence which one would be the very best choice and would appreciate any assistance on this. Or would it be easier for me to scrape my own leads? Ideas?
