Ron Hutchcraft Ministries - Go When The Gate Is Open - #4314
That's what I learned real fast when I saw that the gate guarding the road didn't stay open forever. Tragically, it's something many people never realize about God's road to heaven - the gate isn't always going to be open. You have to go in when the gate is open. That's why God warns us in Isaiah 55:6, our word for today from the Word of God, to "seek the Lord while He may be found; call upon Him while He is near."

Ron Hutchcraft Ministries - Mission Accomplished - #4317
Some day you'll be heading home. Your time on earth will be over at a time set by your Commander-in-Chief, Jesus Christ. Will He be flying that banner for you when you reach home? Will He say, "Mission accomplished?" In many ways, that is the ultimate measure of whether your life was a success or not.

Ron Hutchcraft Ministries - The Biggest Spiritual Mistake In The World - #4334
Tragically, most of the religious people on this planet are making the mistake of trying to earn from God what He says we can only have as a gift. In fact, I believe that's why so many people observe their religion's ceremonies, attend their religion's meetings, try to live by their religion's rules -- they're trying to earn eternal life in heaven by doing good things and being good people. Now, it's a good thing to live a good life, but it's a deadly thing to depend on your good life to get you into heaven.

Ron Hutchcraft Ministries - Last Call - #4343
Not bad for a four-year-old -- well, OK, so I sound like a grandfather now. But that little guy actually has this death thing figured out better than a lot of us grownup people do. We don't decide when it's over. God does. And the thing you want to have happen on the day you take your last breath is for Jesus to call you home to heaven. Unfortunately, not everyone's going home. And the alternative is too eternally awful to contemplate.

Ron Hutchcraft Ministries - A Handful of Real Security - #4345
If you're a parent, there is no greater gift you can give your children than an understanding of God's love for them, demonstrated by what happened on that old rugged cross. Don't be satisfied to give them just a religion, rituals or rules. The ultimate issue for every one of us is what we do with what Jesus did on the cross. If you're a parent, a teacher, a children's worker, a youth leader -- make much of the cross.

Ron Hutchcraft Ministries - Banging The Pan - #4352
When someone needs to wake up, you do whatever it takes to get the job done. Actually, God does whatever it takes to get the job done. Even a "banging pan."

Ron Hutchcraft Ministries - Something's Wrong - #4354
Increasingly, a lot of us watch the news and think something like this, "Boy, something's wrong. Something's very wrong!" We hear about violent murders in a top-ranked high school, people doing things to other people that are unspeakable, families ripped apart, just an awful lot of garbage. It just feels like something's wrong in our world. But even closer to home - with the people we love most - sometimes it feels like something's wrong in our family, in our friends. In fact, we look at how we act ourselves all too often and think, "Something's wrong in me."

Ron Hutchcraft Ministries - Moving Day Without Notice - #4369
You know, we're all going to have one of those, no matter what the weather's like. On God's calendar is the day that we will all breathe our last - and keep our appointment with Him. As the Bible says, "Man is destined to die once, and after that to face judgment" (Hebrews 9:27). No reincarnation. No second chance. No do-over. Death, then judgment. It will be for each of us "moving day" - without notice.

Ron Hutchcraft Ministries - The Joy of Telling - #4375
My young friend couldn't wait to tell us about the person he loved. And, as a result, we couldn't wait to meet her. That's how it's supposed to work with any of us who love Jesus Christ. We love to tell about Him, and as a result, some people we know want to meet Him.

Ron Hutchcraft Ministries - The Point of No Return - #4384
Surprisingly, you could be at that point right now and not even know it. It's a point where the decision you make literally determines your destiny - your decision about Jesus Christ, that is.
