Zac Poonen: Manifesting the Holiness and Compassion of God

By

Jesus said: “I desire compassion and not sacrifice.” One of the dangers the pharisees had was they lacked compassion because they were so righteous. One of the dangers we can face in pursuing righteousness is the lack compassion for sinners, backsliders, evil people, and even compromisers. We don’t have to compromise with them. Jesus sat among sinners. There was no sin in Him. He went there and He told them the truth. So we should act with a lot of compassion to a lot of people who are backsliders or who don’t agree with the truth and we don’t leave them in that condition. That can be our ministry. Jesus could go in their midst and save them. He said: “I did not come to call the righteous but sinners to repentance.”

Can I Hang Out with Unbelievers and be a Good Witness of Christ?

By

In Evangelism, Headline, Preaching/Sermons

So you’re a Christian. Most likely, you have people around you: in your family, at your workplace, at your neighborhood, who are non-Christian yet. Now here’s a dilemma. You want to hang out with these people. With all your good motives, you want to win them for the Kingdom of God. Unfortunately, it’s not that easy as you are faced and challenged with compromising your faith. We read from the Bible that Jesus was around sitting, eating, and talking with sinners. Has he set a boundary for us to follow? What is the best way to handle this? Watch this video of Dr. Charles Stanley answering this very important question of our Christian faith.

Can I Hang Out with Unbelievers?

  • He who walks with wise men will be wise,
    But the companion of fools will be destroyed. – Proverbs 13:20
  • The righteous should choose his friends carefully,
    For the way of the wicked leads them astray. – Proverbs 12:26
  • Do not be unequally yoked together with unbelievers. For what fellowship has righteousness with lawlessness? And what communion has light with darkness? – 2 Cor 6:14

David Wilkerson – Preparing for the Last Days

How to survive the end times? Are you prepared? What is our attitude as we are nearing the end times? “But the end of all things is at hand; therefore be serious and watchful in your prayers. And above all things have fervent love for one another, for “love will cover a multitude of sins.”” – 1 Peter 7-8.

The Day and Hour Unknown (Matthew 24:36-44)

36“But about that day or hour no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son,but only the Father.

37 As it was in the days of Noah, so it will be at the coming of the Son of Man.

38 For in the days before the flood, people were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, up to the day Noah entered the ark;

39 and they knew nothing about what would happen until the flood came and took them all away. That is how it will be at the coming of the Son of Man.

40 Two men will be in the field; one will be taken and the other left.

41 Two women will be grinding with a hand mill; one will be taken and the other left.

42 “Therefore keep watch, because you do not know on what day your Lord will come.

43 But understand this: If the owner of the house had known at what time of night the thief was coming, he would have kept watch and would not have let his house be broken into.

44 So you also must be ready, because the Son of Man will come at an hour when you do not expect him.

He Walks With Me Lyrics

Merle Haggard

I come to the garden alone
While the dew is still on the roses
And the voice I hear falling on my ear
The son of God discloses

And he walks with me and he talks with me
And he tells me I am his own
And the joy we share as we tarry there
None other has ever known

He speaks and the sound of his voice is so sweet
The birds hush their singing
And the melody that he gave to me
Within my heart is ringing

And he walks with me and he talks with me
And he tells me I am his own
And the joy we share as we tarry there
None other has ever known

But it’s really up to us to make those decision as led by the Holy Spirit. Be blessed and do not forget to share this post if you find it valuable.
