If we do not understand the nature and character of Grace, which is who Jesus Christ is, then we will fall short of truly knowing what it means to live a life set apart unto God.

They always made me feel that I could never do enough to please the Lord; that the Lord was always disappointed with me and my sinfulness; that I was barely getting into heaven; that I was never secure in my salvation or in the love of God. Their messages always made me afraid of "missing the mark". No matter how much I repented, prayed, fasted & abstained from the world & the flesh their message was always more of the same, "Do more penance! Break up more of that fallow ground. Don't ever think you're safe with the Lord! He will break you! He will find you out!" I still believe all of that is true but boy oh boy, I am never again going to put myself under the teaching of someone who makes me feel so condemned that I would want to kill myself.

I listen much to differen't preachers but Ravenhill is very hard and nevers talks to the mouth. How can you pull down strongholds of Satan if you don’t even have the strength to turn off your TV? This one I like, tv is 9 of the 10 times a waste of time, we can better use it for praying.
