Someone may ask, “But why should I rise early?” To remain too long in bed is a waste of time. Wasting time is unbecoming of a saint who is bought by the precious blood of Jesus. His time and all he has is to be used for the Lord. If we sleep more than is necessary for the refreshment of the body, it is wasting time the Lord has entrusted us to be used for His glory, for our own benefit, and for the benefit of the saints and unbelievers around us… Anyone who spends one, two, three hours in prayer and meditation before breakfast will soon discover the beneficial effect early rising has on the outward and inward man.

A Message from our Provider:

“Don’t miss life’s best. Find God.”

Concerns related to the altar call: 1. There is no clear biblical precedent or command related to the modern public invitation or altar call. 2. Many today equate “coming to faith” with “coming down the aisle.” 3. There is a danger of giving assurance to those who are unconverted. 4. A large number of people who are “converted” during altar calls fall away. 5. The altar call can be effective in getting people to respond even if a clear, biblical presentation of the gospel and accurate biblical preaching are absent. 6. Scripture already explains how a convert is to make his profession public – baptism and a holy life. 7. For some, the use of an altar call uncovers a lack of trust in the sovereignty of God.

Carey Hardy

If, then, I find taught in one part of the Bible that everything is foreordained, that is true; and if I find, in another Scripture, that man is responsible for all his actions, that is true; and it is only my folly that leads me to imagine that these two truths can ever contradict each other. I do not believe that they can ever be welded into one upon any earthly anvil, but they certainly shall be one in eternity. They are two lines that are so nearly parallel, that the human mind which pursues them farthest will never discover that they converge, but they do converge and they will meet somewhere in eternity, close to the throne of God, whence all truth doth spring.

C.H. Spurgeon
