Regeneration
Charles Haddon Spurgeon on Regeneration: “When God first begins the work of changing the heart, he finds man totally averse to any such thing. By nature man kicks and struggles against God: he will not be saved. I must confess I never would have been saved, if I could have helped it. As long I could I rebelled and revolted, and struggled against God. When he would have me pray, I would not pray: when he would have me listen to the sound of preaching, I would not. Moreover, when I did listen and the tear rolled down my cheek, I wiped it away and defied him to melt my heart. When my heart was a little touched, I tried to divert it with sinful pleasures. And when that would not do I tried self-righteousness, and would not have been saved until I was hemmed in, and then he gave me the effectual blow of grace, and there was no resisting that irresistible effort of his grace. It conquered my depraved will, and made me bow myself before the scepter of his grace.”
Camp Forever, an annual Christian youth camp organized by Student Missionary Outreach, will carry “Regeneration” as this year’s theme. Our goal is for the youth to have a true understanding of the Gospel and how this Gospel will impact their lives forever.
We’ll have the camp at Hacienda Kaftrees in Murcia, Negros Occidental on 26-30 December 2008. A registration fee of 500 pesos ($10) is required. For inquiries, please contact us through this site or send SMS to 0927-6766-361.
