We need to hear the Gospel every day, because we forget it every day.

None Can Believe How Powerful Prayer Is
None can believe how powerful prayer is, and what it is able to effect, but those who have learned it by experience. It is a great matter when in extreme need to take hold on prayer. I know, whenever I have prayed earnestly that I have been amply heard, and have obtained more than I prayed for. God indeed sometimes delayed, but at last He came.
Martin Luther on Bible Study
This is a great quote for pastors and preachers!
First I shake the whole Apple tree, that the ripest might fall. Then I climb the tree and shake each limb, and then each branch and then each twig, and then I look under each leaf.

When the Church Does Not Evangelize
Evangelism is the primary work of the Church, and when the Church does not evangelize, it becomes doctrinally cold, or, self-satisfied with its past achievements, will not produce fruit, and will shrivel in size. Evangelism will save a church from inroads of modernism — the two never exist together. True evangelism requires absolute confidence in the full gospel of the New Testament, and the deep conviction the only Christ can save men.

Going Forth, Weeping

If the Lord Should Tarry Another 6,000 Years
Let not the missionary be afraid, even if for thousands of years to come there should be little apparent success to the preaching of the Gospel. If the Lord should tarry another 6,000 years, yes, six thousand years — and He may — we are still to go on working, still to go on laboring, looking for His coming and expecting it, but not relaxing our efforts because He pleases to delay it, for the Lord has sworn that all flesh shall know His Glory and you may depend upon it — there is no spot of earth that shall be left to be Satan’s dominion!

The Church’s Task
The task of the church is to make the invisible kingdom visible through faithful Christian living and witness-bearing.
