Last week Roland and I were able to listen to Charles Simpson at Nettle Hill. I’d heard about Charles, (one of the “discipleship Movement” leaders along with Ern Baxter, Don Basham, Bob Mumford and Derek Prince), but never heard him in person.
These are some of his “one-liners” for the day to provoke and stimulate you, but not necessarily for you to agree with!! Obviously any one liner is taken out of context of the presentation as a whole.
The Lord wants to show us the “Because” of Luke 4vs18 on a personal level” (The Spirit of the Sovereign Lord is upon me Because He has anointed me..)
Without perspective you can do something foolish. (Seasoned wisdom born of a sense of history)
Our trust is in the Lord not in answers. Most answers are temporary.
Arminians should read Romans, Calvinists should read James.
We get unfocussed by ministering to the felt needs of others.
We need to give up doing everything so we can do the something we should.
We need to take off the things God has not asked us to do to do the things God has asked us to do.
Jesus didn’t catch a wave He made waves. Today we look for a new wave but are no longer making waves.
People sometimes have to go through bad stuff to be usable
My memory has got so bad I’ve got a clear conscience.
People who don’t get caught have never fallen!!
If He who knew no sin was able to communicate with sinners then we should have no problem!
Revivals attract people.
Worship without mission is deception.
One of the hardest things is to cook for people who are not hungry (church members are often spiritually overfed with no spiritual exercise)
Church is the place to celebrate whats happening in the field
The most effective thing we can do is to care.
The average church member has far more than they know they’ve got.
