Write Preacher, Write! Dedicated to Bible based articles that are both sound and practical. Thursday, May 11, 2006. While talking with a preacher friend recently, we discussed the fact that some of the members of the two congregations for which we preach like to do something we call "church hopping." It's the idea where Christians, unsatisfied with the church of which they have aligned themselves, become restless and need what they call "a change.". Ladies and gentlemen, this passage says that if you hav...

I want to be a member of the church of the Lord because . . . Acceptance is a blessing that comes to those in His church. "To the praise of the glory of his grace, wherein he hath made us accepted in the beloved" (Eph. 1:6). The Lord never accepts anyone on their own terms, but the Lord's. Will there be few saved? Who then will be saved? The un...

In Don Humphries book, Hearts on Fire: A Strategy for Dynamic Evangelism, he quoted an older preacher who said, "If man has a soul, and he has, and if that soul can be won or lost for eternity, and it can, then the most important thing in the world is to bring a man to Jesus Christ". Question: Are we doing that? Jesus was a soul winner who would. The an...

It Will Make Me A More Prayerful Person. It Will Draw Me Closer to Other Faithful Brethren. It is God's desire that all men be saved (1 Timothy 2:4). This being true, faithful members of the church are united in a common goal of "seeking and saving the lost" (Luke 19: 10). It Will Fill Me Full of Personal Joy. Don&r...

Do you ever meet people in your day-to-day activities without learning anything about them. I know you do, and so do I. Sometimes, we do similar things when we read the Bible. We will read over names and events without really considering why they are recorded in God's Book. Among David’s mighty men, there was Adino. What’s the point of this story? Or, wi...

The apostle famous for writing the majority of the New Testament letters was Paul. A man turned from the persecutor to the persecuted. He was changed from the evangelized to the evangelist. Add to that, he was one who was transformed from sinner doomed for eternal torment to saved bound for the promised land. Live the Spirit-filled Life. If I'm living...

For the purpose of this study, I want to observe some of the points concerning the subject of corrective church discipline. Only Christians are subject to corrective discipline. Who is subject to corrective discipline? A disorderly brother or sister is to be disciplined with love. Third, once every effort has been exhausted, the congregation ...

In the prologue of Canterbury Tales, by Chaucer, the reader will find the following words: "And gladly would he learn and gladly teach."
