One of the most quoted lines Charles Dickens wrote has to be: “It was the best of times, it was the worst of times.” That could certainly be attributed to the challenges of Christianity in America right now, but I would rephrase it a bit to the following: “The worst of times will lead to the best of times.” We can be confident that the Lord is going to lead us into His triumph in everything that happens. However, we need to know where we are to know how to get where we’re going. Let’s briefly review how this is...

Many Christians are expressing that they have never seen the devil so active, seemingly attacking on every single front with no let up. This should encourage us! The greatest revivals in history all came during such times. We are seeing the first signs of another Great Awakening in America, and the greatest days of America can yet be in our future, not our past. There is only one thing we need to do:

When the elements of the health care bill became public knowledge, most thoughts about the economy and other great problems facing the country, took a back seat.

Others will ignite in Europe, including what used to be communist Europe, and particularly Russia.

     As we look at the nations and their spiritual condition, we might...

Christians have a basic mandate to set people free from bondage. The fact that slavery could exist in America, which is a nation devoted to freedom, is evidence of a great disconnect in the mind and theology of the nation at that time. However, some did see this disconnect and preached freedom for all. For nearly a century, this went on with seemingly little effect. However, these faithful messengers were preparing the ground, and their words were accomplishing their purpose.
