Here's our post to this silly objection against #Presuppositional #Apologetics: https://bit.ly/2Zi35Ao
“Spurgeon’s intense evangelization raised opposition...”
A lot of Christians foolishly, in my view, speak about the increase of opposition as “good for the Church.” I think we have that figured the wrong way. Persecution hurts the Church in many ways. Sometimes, it can stir a deeper faith in a few but it can also damage many. We ought not rejoice in rising persecution. We should rejoice in the power of the Holy Spirit. You see, the shoe needs to be on the other foot. We don’t need the world to persecute us for revival to take place. We need to take the war to the enemy. Work for revival and persecution will come. We will rejoice in it then because we know we are having an effect. It is the cornered tyrant that lashes out against his enemies. The godless who have everything their own way are the rulers who ignore us.
Spurgeon’s evangelism threatened the powers that be, even in the organized church.
Let’s be a problem for evil doers and compromisers today by obeying the Lord fully.
Is it always wrong to boast?

Andy B 2 Minute Video Vlog, Plugged In and Not Switched on, S3, E8
I’ve spent all morning working on my laptop. I plugged it in to make sure it wouldn’t go flat only to find I never actually inserted the mains plugs at the other end…
Is this what we’re like with our bibles and relationship with God - we have our bibles open, but we’re not reading them; we pray, but don’t listen – or simply use words that aren’t our own hoping they’ll be good enough?
Let’s make sure when we’re spending time with God we’re speaking and listening too, and plug into the real source of all we’ll ever need, to accomplish everything that God wants to accomplish with us.

Matthew 16:25-27 #TPT
For if you choose self-sacrifice and lose your lives for my glory, you will continually discover true life. But if you choose to keep your lives for yourselves, you will forfeit what you try to keep.
For even if you were to gain all the wealth and power of this world—at the cost of your own life—what good would that be? And what could be more valuable to you than your own soul?
I, the Son of Man, will one day return with my messengers and in the splendor and majesty of my Father. And then I will reward each person according to what they have done.

to be a man after God's own heart means to put God first; to walk with Him
every moment; to do nothing that would displease Him and to allow nothing that
would grieve Him; to live a life of practical righteousness and holiness before Him;
to give Him our undivided attention, and to love Him supremely.

I was remembering a home we lived in a few years ago. Because it was on a mountain, and because it was our favourite place to live – ever.
From the front window of that house you could easily see a good chunk of the mountain, and we were always blown away by what we saw, the magnificence of nature, changing vistas, circling birds of prey…
