Ron Hutchcraft Ministries - The Mother of All Messes - #8157
...the greatest saboteur of a life that matters is the sin that’s really the mother of all messes on this planet–pride.

Ron Hutchcraft Ministries - The Unsinkable Myth
The Titanic went out on its first voyage as the unsinkable ship. No one knew how much danger they were in until it was too late. ... Many died that night because of their pride, and human arrogance sinks more than ships. Pride has also cost many people their eternity. The Word of God in Matthew 18:2 says, "He (Jesus) called a little child and had him stand among them and He said 'I tell you the truth, unless you change and become like little children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven. Therefore, whoever humbles himself like this child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven.'"

Ron Hutchcraft Ministries - Missing the Way Out
You can see where people would turn back because of the smoke in between them and safety. Tragically, that was a fatal choice. It's a mistake that far too many people have made spiritually—going the wrong way because of all the smoke between them and Jesus. It could be that even you have been holding back from what Jesus offers because of the spiritual "smoke" that has kept you from moving His direction.

Overview of Romans 14 - Into Thy Word Ministries
When you ask someone, “Would you like to be a Christian?” you are in fact saying, “Would you like to be like me?” Therefore, we must be careful in our daily actions, words, and deeds and how we tell someone about the Lord.

Romans 3:27-31 - Into Thy Word Ministries
Refuse to consider boasting! Just as Paul rebuked the Galatian church for mixing up grace and law (Galatians 3:1-3), he goes after the Romans for the same.

Ron Hutchcraft Ministries - October Moon - #8123
There’s really no such thing as moonlight. What we’re seeing is the light of the sun reflecting off the moon. All that bright beauty of the moon is just reflected glory.

Ron Hutchcraft Ministries - Where the Spotlight Belongs - #5667
Throughout Scripture, throughout history, pride has been the subtle destroyer of people that God wanted to use. As soon as He started to use them, they forgot it was Him, not them, that any success is a gift from God, not an achievement by us. It's all about Jesus; it's nothing about you. And even though men can't usually see the pride in your heart like they can see the more outward sins, God can see it and He'll not tolerate it.

Ron Hutchcraft Ministries - The Turf Curse - #5657
We are so concerned about our organization, our denomination, our budget, our church, our group's doctrinal distinctives, the agenda of our group, getting the credit so we can get the glory, or maybe the donations, loyalty to human leaders rather than to the Lord who raised up those leaders. And meanwhile, a lost world is burning down around us. This has to break the heart of God.

Ron Hutchcraft Ministries - Grabbing Your Only Hope - #4239
What I did that day with that rescuer is exactly what I did the day I gave myself to Jesus Christ - and what I've been doing ever since. It is, in fact, the only way God has provided for us to ever have a relationship with Him - to ever have the sins of our lifetime forgiven and to be able to go to heaven instead of hell when we die.

Ron Hutchcraft Ministries - Staying Close to the Cross - #5239
Let the price that Jesus paid for you define your priorities. Live for the One who loves you the most, who gave His life for you. Don't let anyone or anything push Him to the edge. Let the cross inspire your humility, no matter how successful, how applauded and how appreciated you may be. Don't ever forget you're nothing except for that cross. Let the cross help you say no to sin. Jesus died for that sin!
