Moreover, look for able men from all the people, men who fear God, who are trustworthy and hate a bribe, and place such men over the people as chiefs of thousands, of hundreds, of fifties, and of tens. Exodus 18:21
D.L. MOODYIsn’t it extraordinary that Jethro, the man of the desert, should have given this advice to Moses? How did he learn to beware of covetousness? We honor men today if they are wealthy and covetous. We elect them to office in church and state. We often say they will make better treasurers because we know them to be …

Strive to enter through the narrow door. For many, I tell you, will seek to enter and will not be able. Luke 13:24
D.L. MOODYWho are we to strive with? Not with the gatekeeper. The gatekeeper stands with the gate wide open, and he says, “Come in, come in!” All the striving is with the flesh; it is with this old carnal nature of ours.
ERWIN LUTZERSome think to themselves that the way to heaven is really a tall ladder and God gives us grace to climb it rung by rung. And when God sees how sincere we …

Since you have been born again, not of perishable seed but of imperishable, through the living and abiding word of God. 1 Peter 1:23
D.L. MOODYWe hear nowadays so much about “culture.” Culture’s all right when you have something to cultivate. If I should plant a watch, I shouldn’t get any little watches, would I? Why? Because the seed of life is not there. But let me plant some peas or potatoes and I will get a crop.Don’t let any man or woman rest short of being born of the Spirit of God. Don’t cultivate a dead and …

For the Son of Man came to seek and to save the lost. Luke 19:10
D.L. MOODYTo me, this is one of the sweetest verses in the whole Bible. In this one short sentence we are told what Christ came into this world for. He came for a purpose, He came to do a work. He came not to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved.
ERWIN LUTZERYes, we were lost prodigals, but Jesus came to save us. Thanks to Him, our Heavenly Father is waiting for us. He says, “I have made …

Honor your father and your mother, that your days may be long in the land that the LORD your God is giving you. Exodus 20:12
D.L. MOODYThe one glimpse the Bible gives us of thirty out of the thirty-three years of Christ’s life on Earth shows that He did not come to destroy the Fifth Commandment. The secret of all those silent years is embodied in that verse in Luke’s Gospel—“And he went down with them, and came to Nazareth, and was subject unto them” (Luke 2:51). Did He not set an example of true filial love and care …

For their rock is not as our Rock; our enemies are by themselves. Deuteronomy 32:31
D.L. MOODYHas the human heart ever been satisfied with false gods? Can pleasure or riches fill the soul that is empty of God? How about the atheist, the deist, the pantheist? What do they look forward to? Nothing! Man’s life is full of trouble; but when the billows of affliction and disappointment are rising and rolling over them, they have no God to call upon. They shall “cry unto the gods unto whom they offer incense: but they shall not save them at all …

Rejoice that your names are written in heaven. Luke 10:20
D.L. MOODYA soldier, wounded during our Civil War, lay dying on his cot. Suddenly the death-like stillness of the room was broken by the cry, “Here! Here!” which burst from the lips of the dying man. Friends rushed to the spot and asked what he wanted.“Hark” he said, “they are calling the roll of heaven, and I am answering to my name.”In a few moments he whispered, “Here!” once more and passed into the presence of the King.
ERWIN LUTZERAll of us want to live as …

A certain moneylender had two debtors. One owed five hundred denarii, and the other fifty. When they could not pay, he cancelled the debt of both. Luke 7:41–42
D.L. MOODYVery few people think they are lost. You seldom meet a bankrupt sinner. Most of them think they can pay about seventy-five cents on the dollar; some ninety-nine percent—they just come short a little, and they think the Almighty will make it up somehow.Don’t let Satan make you think you are so good that you don’t need the grace of God. We are a bad lot, all of us, …

“Hell disappeared and no one noticed.”
With that terse observation the late church historian Martin Marty summarized our attitude toward a vanishing doctrine that received a great deal of attention in previous generations. Hell is scarcely mentioned in most evangelical churches today. I must ask: When is the last time you heard a sermon or a serious Bible lesson on the topic? Sometimes it is given a quick mention, but yes, Marty is right, hell has disappeared and we didn’t even notice.
But in November of 2025, the doctrine of hell received renewed attention when Kirk Cameron said (Part …

But Abraham said, “Child, remember that you in your lifetime received your good things, and Lazarus in like manner bad things; but now he is comforted here, and you are in anguish.” Luke 16:25
D.L. MOODYI believe that when God touches the secret spring of memory, every one of our sins will come back if they have not been blotted out by the blood of the Lord Jesus Christ, and they will haunt us as eternal ages roll on.
ERWIN LUTZERMoody’s comments are chilling. Imagine existing forever in hell with the memory of your sin upon your conscience. …
