Ron Hutchcraft Ministries - Not Guilty
There are verdicts given in court rooms all over the country every day, but most of them don't affect you. One verdict that really does affect you is the one that determines where you’ll spend eternity. ... It's God's verdict. You ask: "Was I good enough? Will I make it to heaven when I die? Was I guilty or not guilty with God?” The verdict is not in a sealed envelope. It's in an open book, and you don't have to wait to find your verdict from God.

Ron Hutchcraft Ministries - The Place to Say "Yes"
Every once in a while, comic strips have something really good to say. Have you ever seen “B. C.”? He is this little scraggly-haired caveman that makes some fairly modern observations. The best one appeared one Easter and began with B. C. outside a tomb with a rock next to it. Then, in the next panel, he goes in the tomb and looks around. In the third panel, he finds the tomb empty. Finally, in the last panel, he comes out, stands outside the empty tomb, and shouts one word: “Yes!”

Ron Hutchcraft Ministries - The Steady Light
At some time in our lives we're all scared of something whether it's the dark or something we fear is close. It may be that kind of time in your life right now. ... You need a steady light that gives you something that you can count on in the darkness. ... The Word of God in John 8:12 says, "Jesus said, 'I am the light of the world, whoever follows Me will never walk in darkness but will have the light of Life.'" Jesus said, "I am the light." Here is a secure guarantee, "If I'm your light you will never walk in darkness."

Ron Hutchcraft Ministries - No Vacancy
Is there a vacancy in your heart? There are times when a hotel or motel has run out of rooms and there is no vacancy. You are turned down and you can't stay there. ... Now the One who died for you knocks on the door of your heart again, but He won't forever. One day you will, in a sense, be knocking on the door of heaven. If you have never opened your heart for Jesus to become your own Savior from your own sin, there will be no vacancy there for you.

Ron Hutchcraft Ministries - The Life Changing Moment
Sometimes you can't tell the difference between the real Christians and the ones who look like them. Literally, you can have sitting in church next to each other one person who knows Christ and is going to heaven, and another who doesn't and is headed for an eternity without Christ. They sing the same songs, know the same words, do all the same things. The difference is a life-changing moment.

Ron Hutchcraft Ministries - One Solid Beginning
Hopefully, after someone makes a life commitment to their spouse and they are asked if they are married, they wouldn't answer, "Well, I hope so; I think I'm married. We probably got married to each other somewhere along the way!" You'd probably say, "If you don't know you made a commitment, you didn't!" You'd be right! It's the same way when it comes to a relationship with Jesus Christ.

Ron Hutchcraft Ministries - So Near, Yet So Far
Here's what Jesus said in some of the most unsettling words He ever spoke, "Not everyone who says to Me, 'Lord, Lord' will enter the Kingdom of heaven, but only he who does the will of My Father who is in heaven. Many will say to Me on that day, 'Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in Your name, and in Your name drive out demons and perform many miracles? Then I will tell them plainly, 'I never knew you. Away from Me" (Matthew 7:21-23).

Ron Hutchcraft Ministries - Shower Power
Those five young missionaries were martyred, but as a result, the Gospel did get through. Today, virtually that whole tribe knows Christ. It is partly due to the efforts of the missionaries’ widows and especially through a sister of one the martyrs’, Rachel Saint. She faced the typical difficulties of trying to translate the Scriptures into another language, but she quickly came across a major problem. The Auca language doesn't have a word for forgive. They didn’t ever forgive anyone. If there was a problem, they just typically killed the person. Well, Rachel Saint found a word to describe it—washed.
