"Symptoms"


When considering the lack of evangelical zeal in our day I would have to confess that the following quote, in large part, captures the heart of the problem.

"Nothing shuts the mouth, seals the lips, ties the tongue, like the poverty of our own spiritual experience."
(John R. Stott)

"...and they took knowledge of them, that they had been with Jesus." (Acts 4:13)

Amen!!

Reading about Whitefield, Calvin, Spurgeon and many others (as well as scripture of course) show us what our spiritual experience should be.

So much of what is taught these days is idolatry or perverted spirituality.

We must go back and live how Christ taught us to live!
