"description": "Robert Wurtz II ( - )\r\nListen to freely downloadable audio sermons by the speaker Robert Wurtz II in mp3 format. For almost 20 years I have served as a author and teacher of advanced biblical studies. My interests are the New Covenant, apologetics and classical revival. Native of the Kansas City, Mo area and reside now in Independence, MO with wife Anna.\r\nHe is the author of many books including the newest Televangelicalism. In this insightful and thought provoking book, Robert Wurtz II traces the history of Christian evangelism from the book of Acts to modern times. The contrast between pre-1900 and post-1900 evangelism is so sharp, that the book is divided into two sections: Part 1, the pre-Billy Sunday era and Part 2, the post-Billy Sunday evangelistic era. This book is a must-read for anyone that has concerns about issues such as \"the sinner's prayer\" or shallow concepts of conversion.",

"description": "When Jesus passes by the disciples he said to them \"Follow me and I will make you to become fishers of men.\" This means that we forsake the plans that we have for our lives and turn everything over to Christ. In this section we discuss serving the god of Mammon. What does it mean to make mammon serve God? What is one of the greatest characteristics of genuine compassion? Through this lesson you will be challenged to rethink your attitude as a Christian and especially as it pertains to the way in which you handle GOD's money- as you are bought with a price and are now HIS possession.",

This 'first love' experience in God begins to die down when we stop doing the things we did at first. Jesus commands the church at Ephesus to repent. It was not enough to have the this church love doctrine or hate sin. The church at Ephesus was taught the love of God more than any other church bar none. Paul wrote I Corinthians 13 from Ephesus and John the Revelator spent much time their also. So what should we make of the words of Christ \"They have left their first love.\" In this message we discuss getting back to the love we had at FIRST for God.",

Charles Finney accounts of one of his meetings, \u201cAt first they looked angry. Some of them said later that they were on the point of getting up and leaving. But I followed them up on the track of their prayers and confessions, until the leading elder burst into tears and exclaimed, \"Brother Finney, it's all true!\" He fell to his knees and wept aloud. This was the signal for a general breaking. Every man and woman went down on their knees.\u201c",

Charles Finney writes, \u201cI arose and was making some remarks to the people, when an unconverted man, a merchant, came into the meeting. He had sat but a few moments, when he fell from his seat as if he had been shot. He writhed and groaned in a terrible manner. I stepped to the pew door, and saw that it was altogether an agony of mind.\u201d These and many other accounts of the revival at Rome will we discuss in this session.",

I found him to be this Mr. E, of whom I have been speaking. The Spirit of the Lord had so powerfully convicted him, that he was unable to sit on his seat. He was weeping aloud like a child confessing his sins, and accusing himself in a terrible manner. I said a few words to him, to which he seemed to pay but little attention.\u201c",

We must avoid them and their influence. That is, we must \"purge ourselves of these\" in order to be pure and useful to God.

"description": "THE GENUINE BORN AGAIN EXPERIENCE, TEXT. Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God. (John 3:3 KJV) Salvation is the process by which a person is gloriously transformed from being a child of disobedience to a child of God. The children of disobedience are lost and have a different spirit than the saved. The lost live according to the ways of this world and according to the Prince of the Power of the Air (Ephesians 2:2). Those who have been born of water only are fleshly (carnal); but those who have been born of the Holy Spirit are spiritual. Unless a person is born again of the Spirit they cannot see the Kingdom of God, neither in this world or the world to come.",

I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me. (Gal. 2:20) The natural state of man apart from the born again experience is pure selfishness. It is selfishness without mixture. Charles G. Finney defined selfishness as \u201cregarding one's own happiness supremely, and seeking one's own good because it is his own.\u201d The selfish places his\/her happiness above all other interests and especially the glory of God. This selfishness is at the core of sin and must be crucified with Christ. Being crucified with Christ renders one free from sin and dead to sin.",

"description": "TEXT. And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS: for he shall save his people from their sins. (Matthew 1:21) There is a change of heart that accompanies the genuine born again experience in which sin is no longer viewed as a means to gratification or happiness. Sin is seen as the means of death that is the source of all evil, pain, and suffering. Unrepentant sinners are proficient in sin through their own vain imaginations coupled with the various inventions of others. In contrast, the born again understand that they cannot be saved from hell until they are first saved from sin. Sin is not their friend. Satan is not their friend. The world is not their friend. They realize that sin is forgiven when it is repented of and not while persisted in. The purpose of God in saving man was not to abolish the law and allow man to sin with impunity; that would be antinomianism (lawlessness). The purpose was to establish the absolute Lordship of Jesus Christ as we walk in the Spirit in harmony with the personality of God.",

Matthew 15:9,10 is a reference to Isaiah 29:13, which tells of a time when the leaders in Israel were teaching the fear of the LORD by the precept of men. In our times, like in the days of Israel, something has been lost in the Body of Christ and it is the reverence for a Holy God. Many do not fear Him. They have a Satanic pride and arrogance birthed from a Gospel of Humanism. Men worship a \u2018God\u2019 of their own making; a God who they feel is a means to their own end.",
