Showing results for "Chambers" in Christian Living

Over the past century, Oswald Chambers’ writings have inspired countless people to think more deeply about the biblical truths that he so passionately championed. His words are simultaneously penetrating and invigorating, and they trigger something in your soul leaving you forever changed.

Experience is not what a man thinks through, but what he lives through. The Bible is like life and deals with facts, not with principles, and life is not logical. Logic is simply a method of working the facts we know, but if we try to make God and other people logical, we shall find that the experience of life brings us to other conclusions. God sees that we are put to the test in the whole of life. We have to beware of selecting the portions of life only where we imagine we can live as saints and of cutting off any part of life because of the difficulty of being a Christian there.

This audiobook will greatly help seekers after holiness, because it meets us on the threshold of our life in Christ and leads us along a luminous path of scriptural teaching, to the full measure of the believer’s identification with his Risen Lord. The candidates for sanctification are those who have the first-fruits of sanctification in the initial work of grace.

The question of forming habits on the basis of the grace of God is a very vital one. God regenerates us and puts us in contact with all his divine resources, but he cannot make us walk according to his will; the practising is ours, not God’s. We have to take the initiative and “add to...faith virtue...". To take the initiative means to make a beginning, and each one of us must do it for himself: We have to acquaint ourselves with the way we have to go; and beware of the tendency of asking the way when we know it perfectly well.

"Who am I? What is my purpose? What is my life all about?" These are questions Christians are asking all over the world. Why is this?
