J.C. Ryle

"When a man’s heart is cold and unconcerned about religion – when his hands are never employed in doing God’s work – when his feet are not familiar with God’s ways – when his tongue is seldom or never used in prayer and praise – when his eyes are blind to the beauty of the kingdom of heaven – when his mind is full of the world, and has no room for spiritual things – when these marks are to be found in a man the word of the Bible is the right word to use about him, and that word is, ‘Dead.’”

Is Your Evangelism God Centered?

Thank you for sharing. This burdens my heart greatly. I visited a small country church tonight and even though they sang about Jesus and the "looked" like Christians, my spirit sensed it was so dead. They were having special music and at the end the pastor stood up and said, "If anyone would like to make a decision for Jesus, come forward during this next song." That was it. No gospel, no presentation of why we are lost or need salvation, nothing. A complete assumption that everyone in the audience already knew the gospel and being saved was as simple as making a "decision". I've been watching a lot of Paul Washer this weekend, and this service was heartbreaking in light of the truths he presents.

Thanks for sharing this truth and being unashamed of the "true" gospel of Jesus Christ.
