Oswald Chambers on the Gospel

Posted on September 8, 2014 Written by Mark McIntyre 1 Comment


Oswald Chambers
Oswald Chambers

What is needed to-day is not a new gospel, but live men and women who can re-state the Gospel of the Son of God in terms that will reach the very heart of our problems. To-day men are flinging the truth overboard as well as the terms. Why should we not become workmen who need not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth to our own people? The majority of orthodox ministers are hopelessly useless, and the unorthodox seem to be the only ones who are used. We need men and women saturated with the truth of God who can re-state the old truth in terms that appeal to our day.

Church Building

Ungodly means to a godly end?

If one or more of the leaders is using ungodly means to implement his vision, I struggle to see how the church could be healthy.

Wax seal

The softening of the Gospel

Under the Gospel, our hearts experience the softening that allows for a proper understanding of the role of the law.

A Heart Song

To paraphrase, because Jesus demonstrates grace toward us and provides a means of dealing with our sin and rebellion, we have a reason to have joy even when our life circumstances are not what we would like them to be.

Right and Wrong

That pesky sense of oughtness

That pesky sense of oughtness seems to keep creeping in, even in those who say it doesn’t exist. This is the dilemma of the materialist. It is this sense of right and wrong that has caused many to explore the claims of Jesus Christ.

Question 19

What is the misery of man’s fallen condition?

But those of us who are in Christ and have accepted his provision for us have had that guilt removed. We are no longer under condemnation (see Romans 8:1). We can begin to rise above the misery of this life and experience joy in our relationship with God.
