“ A Necessary and Troubling Message …. ” Dr Johnston conveys the truth that God must prune us, break us, and take away our self-will and self-reliance in order to use us. Troubling in that as we want to be used of God for His Kingdom, we often would like to by-pass that pruning process. I know I would. But it is necessary to bring true glory to Him and to humble us. He references Mordecai Ham’s autobiography, which is definitely worth reading (as is Dr Johnston’s own work on the life and ministry of Rolfe Barnard).
“ Another Great Message! ” More fire from Dr. Johnston! If you want to grow closer in your walk with Christ, make these messages a regular part of your spiritual nourishment!
“ Great Sermon! ” This was convicting and inspiring — we need more strong fiery preaching like this! No — we as a nation AND the church are truly on life support. Thus we NEED preaching like this, and then the repentance that should naturally follow.
“ Soul-inspiring Fire!!!! ” I literally listened to this message 5+ times, and will return to it again! Makes me yearn for Edwards, Whitefield, Nettleton, Finney, and Barnard! Preachers, take note!!
“ Spot-On Truth!! ” This is the kind of preaching America needs! Not light-hearted “teaching” as in most churches. I appreciate the comparison of our recent national disasters to judgments out of the Old Testament. Who is listening? It’s pretty much business as usual. No sense of urgency! We need the brokenness, anguish, and pleading again! We need a hunger for righteousness, and a thirst for Jesus Christ!
“ Solemn Dire Warning! ” If this message doesn’t shake you to your core, you’re in need of resurrection. This message needs to be driven home to the hearts of all believers in our churches and our homes. Turn off TV. Get on knees. Open Bible. Cry out for repentance and souls!
“ Great Sermon! ” This message by Dr Johnston gave a creative way of spreading the Gospel and God’s Word! May many listeners be inspired to go out to the highways and byways, and compel all to come to Christ before it’s too late!
“ Great Message in song! ” This song moved me! As a musician, I was touched by the message which was matched beautifully with the chords and melody and rhythm. I will listen again and again!
“ Another Great and Important Sermon! ” The was another serious message of warning! We need to be on our knees, crying out to Jesus. And then we need to be active, working for the Kingdom!
“ Crucial Warning!! ” The casual “ho-hum” attitude of so many “believers” is very disturbing and tragic! I know I need to visit the Cross often to reflect on my own depravity and unworthiness, lest I end up flowing to much with the crowd. We don’t have revival because most of us don’t want revival. We’d rather watch Jeopardy and other TV programs or surf the net with the little time we have left. Time is do short! Souls dying by the tens of thousands daily. Most lost! I’m ashamed at how I’ve lived most of my 57 years! May Gods help me to deny self and sacrifice more. God bless you Dr. Johnston!
“ Great Sermon! ” The wrong road is the broad road that leads to Hell. Does anyone get a chill anymore when they think about eternity’s flames and perishing in them? Do any examine themselves to see if they are truly in the faith? These messages resonate with me and stir my soul! I truly wish I had fellowship to share them with others who felt the same.
“ Truth and Insight!! ” The contrast between Charles Finney’s visit to the mill, and Rolfe Barnard’s some 90 years later is a good picture of our lack of spiritual concern today. We need brokenness! We need revival! Please, Lord, send us a move if Your Holy Spirit! Help us to humble our hearts with the things that concern You! Eternal things and your righteousness through Christ!
“ Imperative Message for our times! ” This is another great message that we all need to hear. The complacency all around us is discouraging, and we need to pray as per 2nd Chronicles 7:14, turning from our wicked ways. Are we on our knees, agonizing over the lost and the wickedness of our nation and the lukewarmness of most of our churches? We need more prophets! How lonely it often feels ....
