The Fruit of Repentance

The Fruit of Repentance

As it is, I rejoice, not because you were grieved, but because you were grieved into repenting. For you felt a godly grief, so that you suffered no loss through us. For godly grief produces a repentance that leads to salvation without regret, whereas worldly grief produces death. For see what earnestness this godly grief has produced in you, but also what eagerness to clear yourselves, what indignation, what fear, what longing, what zeal, what punishment! At every point you…

Life After Leaving the New Apostolic Reformation

 Long my imprisoned spirit layFast bound in sin and nature’s night;Thine eye diffused a quick’ning ray,I woke, the dungeon flamed with light;My chains fell off, my heart was free;I rose, went forth and followed Thee.

Let Love Compel to Warn Those Who Are False

Let Love Compel to Warn Those Who Are False

And the Lord’s servant must not be quarrelsome, but kind to everyone, able to teach, patiently enduring evil, correcting his opponents with gentleness.

There is no joy in making such a statement, but there is…

For the Son of Man came to seek and to save the lost.” Luke 19:9,10 ESV A sinful, short, cheating tax collector climbs up into a tree one day as Jesus passed through Jericho.

The State of Men’s Souls

The State of Men’s Souls

Behold, you delight in truth in the inward being, and you teach me wisdom in the secret heart. Purge me with hyssop, and I shall be clean; wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow. Let me hear joy and gladness; let the bones that you have broken rejoice. Hide your face from my sins, and blot out all my iniquities. Create in me a clean heart, O God, and renew a right spirit within me. Cast me not…
