What good is it, my brothers, if someone says he has faith but does not have works? Can that faith save him? James 2:14
D.L. MOODYI believe in a faith that you can see; a living, working faith that prompts to action. Faith without works is like a man putting all his money into the foundation of a house; and works without faith is like building a house on sand without any foundation.You often hear people say: “The root of the matter is in him.” What would you say if I had a garden and nothing but roots …

If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask God, who gives generously to all without reproach, and it will be given him. But let him ask in faith, with no doubting, for the one who doubts is like a wave of the sea that is driven and tossed by the wind. James 1:5–6
D.L. MOODYSo faith is the golden key that unlocks the treasures of heaven. It was the shield David took when he met Goliath on the field; he believed that God was going to deliver the Philistine into his hands. Someone has said that faith could …

4 Steps for Bringing Healing to a Divided Nation
When Donald J. Trump took the stage late in the night to celebrate his presidential win, one phrase particularly resonated with me, he acknowledged, “It is time to heal.”
Yes, it is time to heal, and the churches of America should lead the way. The election is over, but divisions remain in our churches and in our families. Which leads us to a pressing question: How can we as evangelicals be unified and have a credible witness to the Gospel before the watching world? I would like to share four key …

After the inauguration America is going to need the church more than ever! The election is long past, but the divisions remain—and some of these divisions exist within our churches. Which leads us to a pressing question: How can we as evangelicals be unified and have a credible witness to the Gospel before the watching world? I would like to share three key steps that I think will start us in the right direction.
1. Listen Without Judging
“… be quick to hear, slow to speak, slow to anger…” – James 1:19
Have a conversation with someone who voted differently …

It is good for me that I was afflicted, that I might learn your statutes. Psalm 119:71
D.L. MOODYCould a life of ease ruin a man? Yes. If he had nothing but prosperity, he would be ruined. A man can stand adversity better than prosperity. I know a great many who have become very prosperous, but I know few such that haven’t lost all their piety, that haven’t lost sight of that city eternal in the heavens, whose builder and maker is God. Earthly things have drawn their heart’s affections away from eternal things.

If you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. Romans 10:9
D.L. MOODYI do not know of any more important truth to bring before an unconverted person than the answer to the question, “What must I do to be saved?” because that is the beginning of everything with regard to the divine life. A man must know he is saved before there is any peace or joy or comfort. The answer is, “Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be …

What is God saying to us?
The scenes are—well, they are frequently described as apocalyptic. That word rings with a prophetic tone; it means “pertaining to the end times.” A more familiar word might be catastrophic. Cameras from helicopters and drones, people with their smart phones and news teams on the ground, reveal miles upon miles of burned homes and businesses, and people fleeing for their lives with just the clothes on their backs. More than 60 square miles of some of the most expensive homes in the Los Angeles area, burned to the ground. As of this …

We often depend on our own wisdom, or even the world’s, in making everyday decisions. God’s purposes flow from His wisdom, so we should seek His wisdom. Pastor Lutzer reflects on God’s multi-faceted wisdom to create His church and how we can depend on God’s wisdom in our everyday decisions. Do we consult God’s wisdom? This episode was originally published February 18, 2019 as “The Attributes of God | Week 7: Wise."
"To bring to light for everyone what is the plan of the mystery hidden for ages in God, who created all things, so that through the church …
