No sound system. No band. No guitar. No entertainment. No cushioned chairs. No heating or air-con. Nothing but the people of God and the word of God. And strangely, that's enough. God's Word is enough for millions of believers who gather in house churches... Jungles... Rainforests, and middle-eastern cities. But is his Word enough for us?
David PlattSome people think that if they will do certain things, they will somehow earn the favor of God, but this misses the whole point of Christianity and ironically devolves into a me-centered approach.
David PlattThe gospel confronts us with the hopelessness of our sinful condition. But we don't like what we see of ourselves in the gospel, so we shrink back from it.
David PlattPassionate worship always leads to personal witness. Always. And what that means is . . . if weโre not witnessing, thereโs a problem with our worship. Weโre not seeing God for who He is! Weโre not realizing what Heโs done! Weโre not realizing the magnitude of what Heโs done for our souls!
