Breaks your heart! This is both convicting and encouraging. I get discouraged going to church and having things be the same week after week. I long for a deeper fellowship with God, and with others who desire the same thing. I want 2018 to be a year of deeper prayer and friendship with the Lord, while being more conformed to the image of Christ. I wonder if there are others who are as affected by these messages as I am. I wonder if there are true kindred spirits out there across this land in other states who appreciate the burden that Pastor Johnston brings to his listeners. I pray that there are.
This nation needs Repentance! This is a 10 minute message on the need for Repentance, and it is so needed in 2018! I love the recognition that there is a lot of teaching, but very little preaching these days. Teaching informs — Preaching convicts! Today’s Godpel is mostly void of Repentance. Yet, the Lord Jesus Christ preached Repentance. I choose to believe Jesus.
Thank you Dr. Johnston!
Great Sermon! This encouraged me to seek God in a greater way. I need to be more burdened, with more tears, and desperate for God. God’s love is clearly shown to me by pastors, evangelists, and believers like this who speak to the heart, proclaim truth, and feed the Scriptures to us into the times in which we live. God bless you Pastor Johnston!
Listen to this many times!! Turn off the TV, turn off the movies, get off of Facebook, shut off the rock music — and LISTEN to this message and take it to heart! Then listen to it again many times over. Brother Johnson, I met a young man yesterday (age 26) that had the fire and zeal of Biblical truth in him. I had the privilege of spending a couple of hours with him. It really encouraged me. He sounded like a young version of you. I encouraged him to keeping seeking Jesus, pray, and keep in the Scriptures. His zeal made me imagine the spark of revival across this land. He possessed more Scriptural fire than most people-pleasing watered-down pastors in this area — actually more than ANY I know of. What are they waiting for? A group trip to Disney? Another church tailgate party? Let’s all get on our faces and stay there until God breaks us, and His righteousness grabs hold of us. May Pastors begin REALLY preaching again! May we all repent of complacency!
Great Sermon! This is very powerful! More of this preaching is needed. I’m so tired of what preachers are NOT saying. So tired of all the missing elements of the Gospel - repentance, brokenness, righteousness, prayer, and anguish. Just easy-believism, even by so many that complain about easy-believism! ... Thank you Dr. Johnston for this convicting message!
Convicting Message! This should awaken all to the serious warnings in Scripture to make one’s calling and election sure. “He must increase, I must decrease.” — John 3:30 . These messages move me deeply, and encourages me to keep truly Christ-focused. And to continually repent.
Powerful Message! This message was another extremely powerful one, and I will listen to it again. Dr Johnston’s passion for revival and true conversion inspires me, and in him I find a kindred spirit. To find a local church where the pastor preaches like this would ... well, make me cry for joy — and tremble with conviction! I long to see a deep revival in my own heart and amongst other believers that would result in a spread of Godly revival fire. I need so much more of Jesus — and so much less of me.
Great Sermon! Comforting. Encouraging. This hits me right where I am right now. Life doesn’t make sense. But I know my God does! Thank you Brother Johnston.
Great Sermon! A timely reminder of the dangers of pharisaism in modern pseudo-evangelicalism.
I found when pressing the "Play" button that the message looped back to the beginning round about 9 minutes. The downloaded MP3 did not do this.
Great Sermon! This message goes well with the previous one on eternity and heaven. So needed in our day of lukewarmness and casualness in our churches. Thank you Pastor Johnston.
Great Sermon! This was another great short message that gets right to the heart of the matter. Believers and unbelievers alike keep putting off eternal things for mere temporal trivial matters. I can't help believing that things in the "Church" would be vastly improved if pastors throughout our land preached against the wicked entertainment industry, but instead it is heartily approved of and embraced by most pulpits. "Just don't watch an "R" movies", how weak and spineless is that? ...
Sobering Sermon! This was an extremely sobering message, about false conversion and profession of faith. So disturbing in fact, that I need to listen to it a few more times -- it warrants that kind of attention. Each individual Christian needs to cry out to God for conviction of sin, deliverance from a cold heart, repentance, and true saving faith in our Lord Jesus Christ. Oh Lord, please deliver me!
As always a blessing to listen Hi Dr. Johnston,
Thank you again for all you do. I am still playing most of your messages on our program and wanted to tell you that today we're playing this one. You're in my prayers.
