Church Offerings – Essence of Collapse V
Church Offerings – Essence of Collapse V by Randolph Jason for Gospel News Network This entire year, literally, beginning on January 3, 2019, I have focused primarily on the Essence of Collapse. Our society is collapsing around us and for those with eyes to see and ears to hear it is terrifying. Seeing our neighborhoods, communities, family, friends and colleagues, literally, die in the streets should be a wake up call for believers, but sadly, this is not the case. The reason I say this with such conviction is simple.…
READ MOREChristians must speak truth to power – whatever the consequences
Christians must speak truth to power – whatever the consequences by Ben Kwashi for Christian Today There are times when the people of God must speak truth to power. Whatever the consequences. Someone must call for change. If not us, who? I had an early baptism of fire in 1985 when the Commission for Education decided to build a mosque right next to an Anglican church – St Michael’s in Zaria. They had already begun to bring tipper trucks to the site. I wrote to the Minister to say that…

READ MORETHE WORK OF THE SPIRIT THAT ANTICIPATES THE FUTURE
THE WORK OF THE SPIRIT THAT ANTICIPATES THE FUTURE by Michael Horton for Core Christianity Nevertheless, I tell you the truth: it is to your advantage that I go away, for if I do not go away, the Helper will not come to you. But if I go, I will send him to you. (John 16:7) “It is to your advantage that I go away.” What a strange thing to say. Right at the verge of Jordan in this new covenant conquest, how does Christ’s leaving benefit the disciples—or you and…

How to Thrive in a World of Competing Spectacles by Collin Huber for The Gospel Coalition How do Christians thrive spiritually in a visually driven media culture? The irony of this question isn’t lost on me. As you begin reading this review, your attention is being sought after as you interact with the screen. Other outlets are competing to draw you in.

READ MORE5 ACTIONS OF FAITHFUL EVANGELISTS
5 ACTIONS OF FAITHFUL EVANGELISTS by William Boekestein for Core Christianity As a Christian you want other people to get saved. You know that God uses means in the salvation of others and you want God to use you but you might not know how. Here are five actions of faithful evangelists. 1.

Missionaries are sincere Christians who help others know their Lord and their God (John…
READ MOREGOSPEL THEOLOGY
GOSPEL THEOLOGY by J. A. Medders for Core Christianity There are millions of pages of truth, facts, opinions, epics, myths, fairy tales and short stories available to us. But there is a truth that can be summed up in a sentence or two and it has more value than everything thing. Theology Springs from the Gospel There are also stacks of wonderful theology books available. Some incredible and some terrible. But what is fundamental to our faith is how the Gospel is the fountain from which all essential theologies erupt…

MEASURED SPEECH by Dave Jenkins for Servants of Grace Ecclesiastes 5:1-7, “Guard your steps when you go to the house of God. To draw near to listen is better than to offer the sacrifice of fools, for they do not know that they are doing evil. 2 Be not rash with your mouth, nor let your heart be hasty to utter a word before God, for God is in heaven and you are on earth. Therefore let your words be few. 3 For a dream comes with much business, and a fool’s voice with many…
