To be a Christian is to live like Christ. While no one can live a sinless life like Christ did, we can be filled with His perfect love. This journal is the account of a quest for that perfect love.
There are within many Christians, two natures at war. But Jesus has already won the war, all you must do is surrender to Him.
No one is beyond the grip of God's grace.
We believe that the finally impenitent are hopelessly and eternally lost.
Because of one man - Adam - sin and death entered into the world. Because of one man - Jesus - we are rescued from sin and death.
Every Sunday we post sermons and essays from holiness preachers of old. Today, part 3 of George Whitefield's "The Mark of True Conversion."
We believe in the divine inspiration of the Holy Scriptures as found in their original form in the Old and New Testaments and that they contain all truth necessary to faith and Christian living.
What do we believe at Christian Holiness Daily? Over the next couple weeks, we will examine and defend our beliefs. We begin with "We believe in One God - Father, Son, Holy Spirit.
Many of our listeners have emailed or phoned us asking exactly what we believe, so today, we give an overview of what we believe. Over the next two weeks, we will examine and give the Biblical foundation for each of those beliefs.
We were created to be "imagers" of God, but - because of the Fall of Man - we were born into sin. Still, when we accept Jesus as our Savior and Lord, we are remade in His likeness.
The second part of George Whitefield's message, The Mark of True Conversion.
New Christians should be able to expect to be exposed to, taught, and grounded in the truth. Unfortunately, truth is lacking from our society and our churches.
I am not one to display many emotions when worshiping. Recently though, I have come to the conclusion that if God asks me to leap for joy, then I had better do it.
What are the marks of a true Christian. George Whitefield examines that question in part one of this classic holiness sermon from the works of the one of the dominant figures of "The Great Awakening."
Christ never bids us to follow anyone else. We must follow only Him.
We learn from the Apostle Paul that it is God who establishes our faith and sanctifies us. Our biggest job in sanctification is to allow Him to work in our lives.
Our bodies are the Temple of God, a temple that seems to be under constant renovation, improving until the day we die.
What happens after one decides to follow Jesus. One thing that should happen is that you will begin a lifelong walk with Jesus that results in discipleship. As a result, you will become rooted in His love.
Every Sunday, we condense the message or writings of classic holiness preachers and post them. Today: we take part of a message from Phineas Bresee's sermons on Matthew. We call it, For I Am Meek and Lowly.
Welcome to the best of Christian Holiness Daily, where - every Saturday - we re-post an episode that drew a number of responses from our readers and listeners.
We love Him because He first loved us. We love Him because He is a loving Father who wants to spend time with His children. We love Him.
Salvation is free to all who will follow Jesus, but following Him takes a mighty commitment. An Eritrean Worship leader just spent 10 months locked in a cargo container for participating in an illegal church. What price are you and I paying for following Jesus?
There can be no doubt, while faith in the sacrifice of Jesus means that salvation is free to all who will follow Him, there is a cost in following Him. We cannot discard the words of Jesus when He tells us, "Whoever does not bear his own cross and come after me cannot be my disciple." What is the Cost of Following Christ?
Jesus paid the price for our sins through His perfect life, crucifixion, death, resurrection, and ascension, so what does it cost us to follow Him. What does it mean to take up our cross and follow Him. Why did He tell the Rich Young Ruler to sell everything and give it to the poor before following? Why did He discourage the scribe by saying He had no place to lay His head? Tough questions on today's Christian Holiness Daily.
Is God even aware of our suffering? Does he even care? Where is He in our darkest hours? This edited edition of a classic sermon by William E. Sangster addresses those questions. It's worth listening to again and again.
When we encounter Christ, we cannot keep living the way we did when we were sinners. Salvation compels us to change our plans.
One thing missing in the character of many Christians is the sort of determination that says, "There will be no turning back."
Many Christians still struggle with sin. To them, sin is a whirlpool that pulls them to the bottom and drowns them. Jesus, though, is the lifeline, and can transform us so that we may resist the temptation of sin.
Does the Bible teach in Hebrews 6 that we can sin so much that we lose our salvation? May we cross a bridge too far?
Christian Holiness Sunday presents an excerpt of a sermon by Uncle Buddy Robinson.
Though Jesus will one day judge the world, right now He has come to offer mercy.
Christ tells us that only the Son may truly free us from that which enslaves us.
Christ said that everyone who practices sin is a slave to sin.
Where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is Freedom.
Breaking down the mission of the Church -1
The world may hate us, but - if we are holy as Christ is holy - they will respect us.
Everything we do - work included - should be done through the power of and for the glory of God.
Peace is a fruit of the Spirit and is found in those who are filled with the Spirit... In those that let the Spirit live and love through them.
When a Christian is file with the Holy Spirit they are file with the love of God
God wants to sanctify us to protect us from destruction
Christ doesn't ask you to clean up your life before coming to Him
Prayer, learning God's Word and Christian mediation are all integral to a deeper walk with God.
What does it mean to follow Jesus?
Water in the Bible can represent chaos or the enemy
We want to follow Him because He has filled us with His boundless love.
