The Gospel Is Not How People Get

The Critical Question For Our Generation—and For Every Generation— Is This: If You Could Have Heaven, With No Sickness, And With All The Friends You Ever Had On Earth, And All The Food You Ever Liked, And All The Leisure Activities You Ever Enjoyed, And All The Natural Beauties You Ever Saw, All The Physical Pleasures You Ever Tasted, And No Human Conflict Or Any Natural Disasters, Could You Be Satisfied With Heaven, If Christ Were Not There?

Many People Are Willing To Be God-centered As Long As They Feel That God Is Man-centered

Where The Bible Is Esteemed As The Inspired And Inerrant Word Of God, Preaching Can Flourish. But Where The Bible Is Treated Merely As A Record Of Valuable Religious Insight, Preaching Dies.

The Bible Says He Was Raised Not Just After The Blood-shedding, But By It. This Means That What The Death Of Christ Accomplished Was So Full And So Prefect That The Resurrection Was The Reward And Vindication Of Christ's Achievement In Death.

Life And Death! They Seem Like Complete Opposites-at Great Enmity With Each Other. But For Paul-and For All Who Share His Faith-there Is A Unity, Because The Same Great Passion Is Fulfilled In Both-namely, That Christ Be Magnified In This Body-our Bodies-whether By Life Or By Death.
