Believe
D.L. Moody

Have faith in God! Take Him at His word! Believe what He says! Believe the record God has given of His Son! I can imagine some of you saying, "I want to, but I have not got the right kind of faith." What kind of faith do you want? Now, the idea that you want a different kind of faith is all wrong. Use the faith you have got; just believe on the Lord Jesus Christ. Not only that, you can't give any reason for not believing. If a man told me he couldn't believe me, I should have a right to ask him why he couldn't believe me. I should have a right to ask him if I had ever broken my word with him; and if I had not broken my word with him, he ought to believe me. I would like to ask you, has God ever broken His word? Never.

My friends, He will keep His word. God condemns the world because they believe not on Him; that is the root of all evil. A man who believes in the Lord Jesus Christ won't murder, and lie, and do all these awful things. Don't get caught up by that terrible delusion that unbelief is a misfortune. Unbelief is not a misfortune, but is the sin of the world. Christ found it on all sides of the world. When He first got up from the grave, He found that His disciples doubted. He had reason to cry out against unbelief.

um..

I think that Brother Moody has done great work. but need to clarify a few things.

Joh 3:17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.

Joh 12:47 If anyone hears My teachings and fails to observe them [does not keep them, but disregards them], it is not I who judges him. For I have not come to judge and to condemn and to pass sentence and to inflict penalty on the world, but to save the world.

1Ti 6:10 For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows.


God is not Condemning the World, even if they fail to believe and observe his Word. Judgment is for an appointed time.

Joh 12:48 He that rejecteth me, and receiveth not my words, hath one that judgeth him: the word that I have spoken, the same shall judge him in the last day.

Unbelief is not the root of all evil. The love of money is.


All Doubt and unbelief will keep you broke, sick and defeated.
Look at the response Jesus Gave Peter, when Peter walked on the Water. Jesus could have said, Great job, you made it out their a little bit. Jesus was not to happy with Peter.

Fear is actually faith in somethings ability to harm you.

Every one was Given THE measure of faith. Nobody should ever say that their faith is Weak, you just need to smile and exercise it. Faith never knows the outcome by physical things around it, but knows the outcome by the eternal Word of God.

Thank you Chad for posting something to get us thinking about faith!!!
if the devils fear and believe in God, how much more should we?

Jesus Is Lord.
