Recently I was working on a book project that involved my reading through messages Charles Spurgeon preached on Heaven. I was delighted to come across a passage in which he affirms some of the same teachings I lay out in my books The Treasure Principle and Money, Possessions and Eternity. 

In this one-hour sermon, Randy Alcorn speaks on the treasure principle and how giving can transform our lives, at Solid Rock Church, September 12, 2010.

My friend Justin Taylor recently posted this on his excellent blog, one of my favorites. I also enjoy Tim Challies's blog, which Justin refers to. Here are some important thoughts about thinking and the Christian life.

I tire of the incessant church-bashing and endless tales of people disillusioned with their churches. Yes, Christians can be jerks, and we’ve all had rough times in churches, largely because they consist of people too much like us: sinner-jerks in need of grace and truth and growth.

From time to time I like to review books on my blog. Who Made God?: Searching for a Theory of Everything is a book that offers ideas and insights most of us have never pondered.

It is very hard to communicate on this subject with both grace and truth. I oppose gay marriage, but not only as a matter of righteousness, but also because it is deadly to those involved in it. 

It has been my experience that most people holding this position, or at least those who actively teach it, are not open to what I believe is the clear teaching of Scripture from many passages.

I like that. It moves our hearts to gratitude for God’s kindness in giving us a home to live in, not only our eternal home in the New Heaven and Earth, but our first home on the present Earth.

People are different. Anyone with a tendency toward violence—and certainly that can be furthered by watching violence—should NOT watch shows with violence. 

Good general book on Bible prophecy, includes Revelation but also other portions of Scripture; from a dispensational framework, like Joel Rosenberg’s The Last Days.

The Christian life is not based on avoiding the truth but on hearing and submitting to it. The greatest kindness we can offer each other is the truth.

Perhaps Randy carefully chose the word “renounce,” in that typically it has a meaning of “verbally proclaiming a completely severed relationship with another entity” (person, people, “the creation,” etc.).
