Sin, Lust, Masturbation, Pornography, Biblical Repentance
These videos from I'll Be Honest have been tremendously, tremendously helpful for me personally, and many others all over the world. And I just thank God that He has provided such supplements for the faith of believers through many mediums in His grace. In the preaching of the Word, the administration of the ordinances, even in books and videos such as these. What grace, despite the depths of our unbelief and sin, the Blood still runs ...

Have You Ever Really Wept & Grieved Bitterly for Your Sin?
In the past couple of days I've been listening to a message on "Brokenness" preached by Voddie Baucham Jr. The sermon made such an impression on my soul, so much so that I labor to continually burn into my heart the same words Voddie uttered: May I never get over the fact that God saved a sinner like me. Indeed, as Dr. Baucham said, Brokenness is an appropriate response to sin! Have you ever been truly broken ...

God’s Wrath is Coming. Are You Ready?
It has been a while since I've last listened to a sermon that is centered around the Biblical exposition of true repentance and saving faith in Christ. I fear that the preaching of true repentance and the examination of one's self in light of the mirror of God's Word is called to the people far to little today. Is it because of fear? Is it because of apathy in the comforts of the church hall? ...

Biblical Repentance; Test Yourselves, Lest be Lost!
. . .Repentance consists in two things: humiliation and transformation. [1] Humiliation. ‘If their uncircumcised hearts be humbled.’ Lev 26:41. There is, as the schoolmen say, a twofold humiliation, or breaking of the heart. (1) Attrition; as when a rock is broken in pieces. This is done by the law, which is a hammer to break the heart. (2) Contrition; as when ice is melted into water. This is done by the gospel, which is as ...

Counterfeits of Repentance.
‘Then has God also to the Gentiles granted repentance unto life.’ Acts 11:18. Repentance seems to be a bitter pill to take, but it is to purge out the bad humour of sin. By some Antinomian spirits it is cried down as a legal doctrine ((That is to say in more familiar terms, "Legalism.")); but Christ himself preached it. ‘From that time Jesus began to preach, and to say, Repent,’ &c. Matt 4:17. In his last ...

What Makes Many so Cold and Barren?
The bruised reed is a man that for the most part is in some misery, as those were that came to Christ for help, and by misery he is brought to see sin as the cause of it, for, whatever pretenses sin makes, they come to an end when we are bruised and broken. He is sensible of sin and misery, even unto bruising; and, seeing no help in himself, is carried with restless desire ...

Repentance, a Conviction of Sin. Not Crying.
One of the Divinely predicted characteristics of the “perilous times” in which we are now living is that “evil men and seducers shall wax worse and worse, deceiving, and being deceived” (2 Tim. 3:13). The deeper reference of these words is to spiritual seducers and deceivers. Men with captivating personalities, men who occupy a prominent place in Christendom, men with an apparently deep reverence for Holy Writ, are beguiling souls with fatal error. Not only ...
