Tozer by Marianne Lordi http://refocusingoureyes.com/videos/entertainment-church/comment-page-1#comment-617 Marianne Lordi Mon, 30 Aug 2010 04:32:49 +0000 http://refocusingoureyes.com/?p=3224#comment-617 How tragically true is Tozer's message to the church of today! No one wants to hear about self-denial and persecution for Christ. We all want heaven right here and right now! It is no wonder that the road to destruction is wide and sadly many church attenders are on it! How tragically true is Tozer’s message to the church of today!

I can not begin to fathom what he would have to say of the church of today! I printed out the entire sermon. His words are just filled with truth. He ends the speech speaking of the how the love of Christ MUST constrain us for he says ".. if it does not constrain you, judge yourselves that you be not judged and found wanting at the last!" Amen and amen!!!! I find it so amazing that Spurgeon made these comments of the church in the 1800′s. I can not begin to fathom what he would have to say of the church of today!

I don't know what bible he is reading (assuming he is reading something) but I know he does not understand the truth of the gospel!

I believe 100% in the "Perseverance of the Saints" and do not advocate people losing their salvation whatsoever. <em>However</em>, there are MANY <em>false conversions</em> which have been birthed out of what this article is referring to: Hirelings. I hope this clarifies. Lonnie,

I realize that some churches make it too easy for potential Christians just to raise their hand for salvation. However,salvation is a work of God's grace toward all those who will accept Jesus Christ as their only Saviour. The problem that folks are faced with in today's society is that there are many ways to get to heaven. Which is a lie,because if that were so,then God's son,Jesus Christ,died for nothing. Satan is very much alive & deceiving millions,concerning a cheap salvation. Your emphasis seems to be slanted toward people losing their salvation.
