Alliance of Confessing Evangelicals

You are the sons of the prophets and of the covenant which God gave to your fathers, saying to Abraham, “And in your posterity shall all the families of the earth be blessed.” God, having raised up his servant, sent him to you first, to bless you in turning every one of you from your wickedness (Acts 3:25-26).
We live in a day when the trivial often takes the place of the important. In all probability there is nothing new about this. Since man first fell away from God, every generation has had its old desires and lusts with which to contend. When our hearts yearn for higher things we soon learn that a force within us holds us back from reaching them. The man who is not born again is without wings. He has the desire to fly, but the downward pull of gravity is greater than any force that he can exercise in the upward direction. He is destined, therefore, to be earthbound in the deepest sense.
