Forgotten Side of Success

Posted on 29th December 201610th November 2017 by Pastor Chuck Swindoll

We are a success-saturated society. The telltale signs are everywhere. Each year dozens of books and magazines, scores of audio and video, and hundreds of seminars offer ideas, motivation, techniques, and promises of prosperity. Curiously, however, few ever address what it is that most folks want (but seldom find) in their pursuit of success: contentment, […]

Contentment

Posted on 29th December 201610th November 2017 by Pastor Chuck Swindoll

Laurence J. Peter and I are close friends. No, actually, we’ve never met, but we’ve visited together numerous times. We’ve never even shaken hands, but we’ve been in agreement ever since we crossed paths. Although I’ve never laid eyes on him, I’ve smiled at his comments and nodded at his conclusions . . . amazed […]

Scriptural Support for Christ’s Return

Posted on 29th December 201630th July 2019 by Pastor Chuck Swindoll

These facts from biblical prophecy about Christ’s return may surprise you: One out of every 30 verses in the Bible mentions the subject of Christ’s return or the end of time. Of the 216 chapters in the New Testament, there are well over 300 references to the return of Christ. 23 of the 27 New […]

Prophetic Momentum

Posted on 29th December 201610th November 2017 by Pastor Chuck Swindoll

I remember the time I spoke to American football’s Los Angeles Rams at their pregame chapel service, and later that night, they destroyed the Dallas Cowboys. The evening before Super Bowl XIV, I spoke to the Pittsburgh Steelers, and they ripped the Rams apart the next day. Then I spoke to baseball’s L.A. Dodgers before […]

He’s Coming…Are you Ready?

Posted on 29th December 201610th November 2017 by Pastor Chuck Swindoll

One dark night in a second-story room in Jerusalem, Jesus ate His “last supper” with His disciples. There, He revealed the startling truth that His death was only hours away. The eleven must have wanted to stop their ears from hearing Him say, “I’m going to leave you. I’m going back to My Father.” Heaven, […]

The Final War

Posted on 29th December 201630th July 2019 by Pastor Chuck Swindoll

Romans 11:33-36; 2 Peter 3 For the next few minutes, imagine this scene: But the day of the Lord will come like a thief, in which the heavens will pass away with a roar and the elements will be destroyed with intense heat, and the earth and its works will be burned up. Since all […]

Judgment Day

Posted on 29th December 201619th May 2021 by Pastor Chuck Swindoll

The “Book of Life” is a New Testament concept with deep roots in the Old Testament (Exodus 32:32-33; Daniel 12:12; Malachi 3:16). Believers during Old Testament times were saved by grace, through faith, as they honored the old covenant. When Jesus initiated the new covenant He told His disciples, “rejoice that your names are recorded […]

Everything Is Under Control

Posted on 29th December 201610th November 2017 by Pastor Chuck Swindoll

At the heart of life’s major struggles is a theological issue. Putting it in the form of a question: “Is God in charge or is He not?” If we could, by some wonderful force from heaven, be allowed to slip from this earth in our present state and into the glory of heaven, we would […]

Christ’s Return

Posted on 29th December 201610th November 2017 by Pastor Chuck Swindoll

The other evening my wife and I were enjoying a quiet conversation together. We were sipping some fresh-perked coffee, the house was unusually still, and there were no plans to go anywhere that evening. It was one of those cherished moments you wish you could wrap up and reserve for later use when it’s really […]

An Anniversary America Will Never Forget

Posted on 29th December 201610th November 2017 by Pastor Chuck Swindoll

The date September 11, 2001, is forever etched in the national memory of the United States. That morning stands as the never-to-be-forgotten morning when time stood still. Wherever we were, we stared in horror and confusion. With calculated and unconscionable malice, beastly terrorists stabbed our nation repeatedly in the heart—at the World Trade Center in […]
