Now is the Time of Salvation by J.C.Ryle

Whatever a person sows—that they shall also reap! Whatever we love in time—we shall love in eternity! Whatever we think wearisome now—we shall think wearisome then. You must be born again—or heaven itself would be a miserable abode! There is no place in heaven for the worldly-minded and profane.

You must be renewed in the spirit of your minds, or you will hear that dreadful voice—Friend, how did you come here without a wedding-garment? You must become new creatures! How long will you insult your Redeemer by putting it off? Oh! pray you to the Lord Jesus Christ, while it is called today, to send His Holy Spirit on you! Go to the fountain, while the door of mercy is yet open—wash and be clean!

Those who overcome ...

Listener: In Revelations 2:26, in the message Thyatira, it says to him who overcome and keeps my deeds until the end, I would give authority over the nations. So, he who overcomes, is that all believers? and secondly, who are those in the nations He is giving authority over?

Answer from Dr Michael Rydelnik:

Summary of answer:

Dr Michael Rydelnik believes that all believers, followers of Jesus, are overcomers. The Church will have authority over the nations, which nations? We are going to rule with the Lord Jesus one day and He will assign us which nations that we will be ruling over in the Messianic Kingdom.

In Need of a New Heart by J.C.Ryle

Life is the mightiest of all possessions. From death to life is the mightiest of all changes. And no change short of this will ever avail to fit a person’s soul for heaven.

It is not a little mending and alteration – a little cleansing and purifying – a little painting and patching – a little whitewashing and varnishing – a little turning over a new leaf and putting on a new outside that is needed. It is the bringing in of something altogether new – the planting within us of a new nature, a new being – a new principle – a new mind. This alone, and nothing less than this, will ever meet the necessities of person’s soul. We need not merely a new skin, but a new heart.
