Weakness and power. Good presentation, balances, showing the weaknesses and errors of Cranmer, but also the accomplishments, the great things God did through him.
Spiritual sensitivity. Typical puritan message, an anatomy of the heart of flesh, which it's spiritual sensitivity, toward God, toward duty, toward temptation and sin, toward suffering. In opposition with the insensitivity of the stony heart.
Great sufferings. Useful presentation, with stress put on the sufferings of Judson in prison in Burma. Great lessons in God's providence over the lives of His servants.
Great lessons. It was a useful message for me. Great lessons to learn, good things from Pink's life to follow, bad things to avoid. I didn't know these things before. After listening to this presentation I also believe that he lacked serious things needed not only in the life of a pastor, or of a servant of Christ, but in the life of a Christian.
Great Sermon! pastor, this is by far the best sermon i have ever heard on these topics. I am hoping that this sermon will convince some of my friends, the ones who continually lose and regain their salvation.i am believing the Lord will use this to settle some down.at times it hurts to see these true saints of God believing the lie,that their Lord will abondon them and cast them into hell. thank you and God Bless You
Minor Correction In the introduction to Princeton Seminary in 1812, I said that Ashbel Green taught all of the classes, I meant to say Archibald Alexander. (2)A question was brought up, about the use of the name Presbyterian Church in America. Though the P.C. USA ordered the new denomination founded by Machen to desist using that name in 1934, a denomination by this name was formed in 1973 headquartered in GA.
Great Sermon! This was a very encouraging sermon for women... I would like to share it with the women I love in my life.
I also enjoyed the Manly Dominion series for myself.
Great power of God. Encouraging message. Great salvation of our Lord, who brought our brother out from sin and addiction and from a false assurance of salvation to life with Christ.
Much needed in 2009!! Seeing what has happened since Sam Waldron wrote this, this is a needed to hear for right now. Because pretty soon the way it looks.........you won't be able to say this anymore. Oh you can......you'll just go to jail. Wonderful.
A Warning we need to heed What would we think of a description of a young man who confessed to us,
"I read my Bible more than twice through in less than a year, spent much
time every day in prayer and other secret duties, gave great attention to the word preached, and endeavored to my utmost to retain it. So much concerned
was I about religion, that I agreed with some young persons to meet privately on sabbath evenings for religious exercises, and thought myself sincere in these duties; and after our meeting was ended, I used to repeat the discourses of the day to myself; recollecting what I could, though sometimes very late at night. I had many thoughts of joining the church."
- This is a description of David Brainerd BEFORE he was converted. Is it any wonder the local church is in decay when only half-converted converts are making its every decision?
Great Sermon! Pastor Martin expounds this very comforting truth with a calm authority. He explains that it can never be a licence to sin but rather is an anchor in the time of doubt. He expounds the doctrines of grace with tenderness and wamth. Well worth a listen.
Great lessons. 7 principles learned in teenage years. Marriage, university years, evangelistic missions and calling to pastorate. Helpful lessons from all this. I am also waiting for the third part.
Response To Jenny Thanks for you comments and I can sure understand your point about biographical details. The Sunday School more appropriately should be named the Second Great Awakening and Asahel Nettleton. As with all Sunday School biographies, 50 minute lessons don't begin to give me time to detail the life of any individual. But if I can whet someone's appetite to read more of this for themselves, my goal would be accomplished. Many in our day have never heard of the 2nd Great Awakening, let alone even have a clue who Nettleton is. They have never even heard of Timothy Dwight, Yale President, and grandson of Jonathan Edwards. I am just a mailman who reads a lot and like to point people to good books! (and biograpies!)
