- Homemade Gods (37:08)
The only lasting cure for idolatry is a fervent love for God. The hardest step is seeing our idols in the first place.
- Empty on the Inside (38:18)
If you don’t know God, it’s not God’s fault. God has already done everything necessary for you to have a relationship with him. - He Doesn’t Need Your Help (35:53)
The gospel begins with God. It doesn’t begin with Jesus or with us. The divine plan of salvation begins with the God who designed it.

The Future of the Chinese Church
Posted by Ray Pritchard on Friday, November 4, 2011
This little boy represents the future of the Chinese church.Earlier this week his mother put him down for a nap in the apartment where we stayed in Dalian. His grandfather serves as a church worker in a Chinese city with very few Christians. He and his mother and father and grandfather came to Dalian to spend two days with us. I was very pleased wh...
B.C. Gets It Exactly Right
Posted by Ray Pritchard on Saturday, June 25, 2011
“In the last days scoffers will come, scoffing and following their own evil desires. They will say, “Where is this ’coming’ he promised?” (2 Peter 3:3-4).Scoffers have always been with us.The easiest argument against a miracle is always, “Nothing like that has ever happened before, therefore nothing like that can ...

Jesus is Coming. Are You Ready?
Posted by Ray Pritchard on Friday, May 20, 2011
I write this on the eve of Judgment Day, the one predicted by Harold Camping and his followers. The prediction relies on a complex set of assumptions and mathematical calculations regarding Bible chronology that the rest of us recognize for what it is. Nonsense.No one knows the day or the hour. No one knows for certain how close the return of Chris...
A Week With Daniel at the BI
Posted by Ray Pritchard on Friday, November 19, 2010
I’m writing this note in the Business Center across from Gate 64 at the Tampa airport. In about an hour, I’ll board a plane to fly home, thus ending my final trip of the year. This week I’ve had the privilege of spending four days teaching the book of Daniel to 200 eager students at Word of Life Bible Institute in Hudson, Flor...
New video – Where does the world stand in the light of Bible prophecy?
Posted by Ray Pritchard on Wednesday, July 28, 2010
A few weeks ago, I was conducting an “Ask Pastor Ray” session at Cannon Beach Conference Center. One of the questions I received was “Where does the world stand in the light of Bible prophecy?“.This is a question many people are asking in these uncertain times! 2 Timothy 3:1 says that in the last days “terrible&rd…
Is the End Near?
Posted by Ray Pritchard on Saturday, July 24, 2010
Two things made me stop and think . . . 1) This editorial cartoon by Jeff Stahler of The Columbus Dispatch seems to perfectly catch the mood of so many people today. I cannot remember a time when I have encountered as much genuine anxiety in so many places among so many places. Truly we live in unsettling times.2) Writing in Mere Comments, La...
Cannon Beach Q and A, Part 3
Posted by Ray Pritchard on Sunday, July 11, 2010
Would you comment on predestination versus free will?How much time do we have? Not enough to cover this vast subject. The question implies that predestination (which the Bible unquestionably teaches–see Romans 8:29 and Ephesians 1:5) and free will somehow oppose each other. But as Spurgeon pointed out when asked how he “reconciled&rdquo...

Are You Ready?
Posted by Ray Pritchard on Sunday, January 11, 2009
This morning in Sunday School Mike Ferris led a discussion regarding the Second Coming of Christ from 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18. He pointed out that our focus ought to be on the fact of Christ’s return, not on the timing because no one knows when he will come back. The lesson dovetailed nicely with the pastor’s sermon on the same topic, t...

When Striving is Bad
Posted by Ray Pritchard on Friday, May 30, 2008
Recently I attended a prayer meeting with a group of godly people, the purpose of which was to seek God’s face on behalf of the city in which they lived. I listened as they asked God to unite Christians so that the body of Christ would make a positive witness to the city, they prayed for open hearts, they asked the Fa ...

The Gospel in Two Words
Posted by Ray Pritchard on Thursday, May 15, 2008
A few days ago I read a pre-publication manuscript by Julie-Allyson Ieron called “The Overwhelmed Woman’s Guide to … Caring for Aging Parents.” One chapter talks about the challenge of sharing Christ with aging parents, grandparents and other relatives. As your loved ones grow older, the importance of sharing the Good ...

I am excited about this because Back to the Bible is one of the oldest and best-known Bible-teaching programs. I first met Wood Kroll, the regular Bible teacher for ...

William Blackstone and the 60th Birthday of Israel
Posted by Ray Pritchard on Friday, May 9, 2008
Yesterday marked the 60th anniversary of the founding of the modern nation of Israel, an event that seemed unlikely and even impossible a century ago. Yet well before 1948, and long before the two great world wars that dominated the 20th-century, and long before the current geopolitical crises in the Middle East, there was ...

“He is not saved yet”
Posted by Ray Pritchard on Saturday, May 3, 2008
When we asked one of the Josiah Venture missionaries if she comes from a Christian family, she replied no, but her mother has accepted Christ. Then speaking of her brother, she said, “He is not saved yet."Not, “He is not saved."But, “He is not saved yet."Thus does faith work through hope. That little word “yet” makes all th ...
