Prayerless Praying
by E.M. Bounds

"There is much prayerless praying. The attitude and semblance of prayer are in it, but there is no real praying, no projecting of the desires with vigor and in a flame to heaven. The form and show are seen, but the substance and being of prayer are entirely absent."

Silent Sheep: Why Christian Men Tend to Wimp Out
by Harold Vaughan

"Ecclesiastes states there is a 'time to keep silence, and a time to speak'. There are numerous occasions to practice meekness and silence, but there are other instances when it is manditory to display courage and open your mouth for an honorable cause. God give us men with SPIRIT-FILLED BOLDNESS."


The Believer's Resume

John 8:32 says, "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall set you free."

In Christ...
I have Christ's power and authority (Ephesians 1:18-23).
I am holy, blameless, and beyond reproach (Colossians 1:21-22).
I am seated with Christ in heavenly places (Ephesians 2:6).


Paradoxical Commandments of Christian Leadership
by Howard Ferguson

  1. People are illogical, unreasonable, and self-centered; Love
    Them Anyway.
  2. If you do good, people will accuse you of selfish ulterior
    motives; Do Good Anyway.

You Might Be A Pharisee If...
by Harold Vaughan

You are glad you are better than others.
Your prayers are more like “self-talk” than speaking with God.
Your sins seem so small when placed beside the really BIG sins of others.


Calling the Church Back to the Men
by Harold Vaughan

Churches that "Challenge" men will attract men. Men do not follow programs.
They are drawn to visionary leaders who inspire them to a great cause...


Debt and the Judgment of God
by Harold Vaughan

America is over $8 trillion in debt! The Word says "righteousness exalteth a nation: but sin is a reproach to any people." Our National debt is sin...


Frown: Allah Hates You!
by Harold Vaughan

Tolerance, freedom of speech, and "live and let live" are the mantras most Americans live by. Relativism, be it cultural, theological, or moral is the ruling philosophy of our day...

 


Obesity: A National and Spiritual Crisis
by Harold Vaughan

Lack of control in one area bleeds over into other areas. More than once gluttony and drunkenness are paired together in the Scripture (Deut. 21:20; Prov.23:21). Proverbs warns us; Be not among winebibbers (drunkards); among riotous eaters of flesh (23:20). Riotous eaters are gluttons.


Evangelics
by Harold Vaughan

You may remember the Catholics and Evangelicals Together document that made headlines a few years back. Since it was penned, we have witnessed the acceleration of the absorption of what is now called “evangelicalism” into religion of Rome.


McChurch
by Vernon C. Lyons

Our culture demands convenience Christianity. We want it short, simple, fast and cheap.


Sissy Men
by Harold Vaughan

In order to counter worldly influences, scores of parents made the conscious decision to be “family oriented.” This was prompted by many factors, including the grim statistics among second generation Christians. Desperately concerned for their children, parents are now home schooling around two million children in the United States. Like any reactionary movement, excesses and deficits are not uncommon.


The Three-Fold Sin of Society
by Harold Vaughan

We have lived to see the day when the people who spend millions to save two stranded whales will eagerly spend hundreds of millions to kill unborn human beings. How did we get to the place we are today? The book of Romans sheds great light on current conditions; the first chapter is most relevant in comprehending present-day atrocities.


Preparation for Revival
by Charles H. Spurgeon

Dear friends, we need as the first and most essential thing in this matter that God should walk with us. In vain we shall struggle after revival unless we have His presence. If, then, we desire to have His presence with us, we must see to it that we are perfectly agreed with Him both in the design of the work, and in the method of it; and I desire to stir up your pure minds to heart-searching and vigilant self-examination, that every false way may be purged from us, since God will not walk with us as a church, unless we be agreed with Him.


San Francisco, Strange Marriages, and the Churches of America
by Harold Vaughan

The cry of outrage from conservatives and evangelicals concerning the recent gay marriage issue was predictable. What decent person wouldn’t be outraged? However, the outcry is “too little” and “too late.”


Sex, Rock’n’Roll, and the NFL
by Harold Vaughan

No, I did not watch the Super Bowl half-time show, but boy have I heard about it! The Ten Commandments may be offensive, but Matt Drudge says that top CBS executives approved the musical skit where Janet Jackson exposed partial nudity. “The decision to go forward went to the very top of the network [CBS],” said a well placed source in New York.
