To Whom is the Arm of the Lord Revealed?
Saturday, March 1st, 2008Art maintains there are only two basic heart dispositions in the world. One is repulsed by Jesus, reluctant to give submission to anyone. The other longs for the salvation of God, and it is to this latter that the Lord reveals Himself. A sober address appropriate to all earnest inquirers after God.
Gleanings from Psalm 87

The Anatomy of Adultery
Saturday, March 1st, 2008Art maintains that the evil of adultery pertains as much to adulterers as it does to adulteration: the admixture or watering down of things that are holy. We are not just corrupted but become corruptors.
Intimate Union
Saturday, March 1st, 2008A probing study of the mystery of marriage, the Body of Christ and our relationship with God Himself.
The End -Time Man of God
Saturday, March 1st, 2008As with Elijah, we can expect that God will thrust His servants into a world that is plunging deeper into tragedy, suffering, and crisis.
Reconciling the Body of Christ
Saturday, March 1st, 2008This is an early expression of an enduring theme, pointing towards true communion, true anointing and true breaking as the path toward true reconciliation.

New Pattern for Living
Saturday, March 1st, 2008Speaking from Israel’s crossing of the Jordan River, Art maintains that there is a “Jordan” to be crossed before God’s people can lay claim to being His people – without which Jericho cannot be “taken”. Previously titled: Future Trends for the Body of Christ. A 1970’s message.
Be Ye Perfect
Saturday, March 1st, 2008Art defines being “perfect” before God as the willingness to refrain ourselves from our own humanly-contrived and well-intentioned doing in order to wait on that which can only come down from above. A 1970’s message.
What a Jew does with Jesus
Saturday, March 1st, 2008Art’s dramatic testimony from an intellectually sophisticated atheist to a believer in Jesus. A 1970’s message and probably his best testimony speaking (Some background “popping” noise in the first 25 minutes – not too detracting)

The Reality Principle
Monday, February 25th, 2008Something is being pressed just now upon my consciousness that has been percolating for some time in my inner being. A recent two hour conversation with an unbelieving Jewish man made me to further realize that I am definitely at odds with the world, its logic, and its premises.
Who Really Killed Jesus?
Wednesday, February 20th, 2008So horrendous has been the cost to the Jewish community of the cry, ‘Christ-killer,’ that any references of the crucifixion of Jesus are shunned with horror. Now with the advent of Mel Gibson’s film, The Passion of the Christ, Jewish fears are again being stirred coming as it is in a season of heightened anti-Semitism throughout the world.
The Chosen People: Chosen for What?
Wednesday, February 13th, 2008As Jews, one thing that makes us recoil is being called “chosen.” It is something like the involuntary shudder that comes with the screech of chalk on a blackboard. After all, what has being chosen ever meant to us but trouble?
True Repentance for the German and the Jew
Wednesday, February 13th, 2008Instead of seeking relief from the guilt of the Holocaust in some kind of self-serving way, we need to be reminded that God recognizes only one kind of repentance for all people and for all ages, the fruit of which can be known in how we respond to the Jew in our midst.
Some Thoughts on Romans 10
Wednesday, February 13th, 2008“Calling on the name of the Lord” is no glib incantation, some vocalization to which someone may be coaxed or some mindless ‘decision’ made. It is the taking for one’s self the absoluteness of the Lordship of Christ in the forfeiting henceforth of all personal autonomy over one’s own life. Is it any wonder then that we see so little evidence of this transaction in the multitudes professing to be ‘saved’?
Thinking the Unthinkable: Anticipating the Dreaded and Undesired
Wednesday, February 13th, 2008What can reasonably be expected from a “God of Providence” in the view of His people is shattered when ultimate catastrophe breaks.
The Baptism of the Holy Spirit in a Last Days’ Context
Wednesday, February 13th, 2008Our prayer is a little better than polite, but still not the gushing or ‘groaning that cannot be uttered’ that accompanied the intercessions of earlier Pentecostal generations whose crisis of need was evidently greater.
