Sermon Search: Infidel

…infidel in heart and spirit. And this man belonged to what he called a Hell Fire Club. They were men of infidel persuasion who scoffed and laughed at the things of the Lord. Well, this man Thorpe, he was described as these books say, as a great Christian and a…

…you ever see it rain on the ocean, just rain, rain, rain on the ocean? And what good is that? That shows you there’s no design.” That’s what the infidel says. Well, all you got to do is tell the infidel, “Listen here. The reason God did that was so…

…is, lest he should say, “I did it. All praise to me.” This marvelous gift of God is something the Lord has wrought for us. He did it. In this last century, there was a very famous infidel, a man of pristine gifts, one of the greatest orators America ever…

…does not mean that a man is just as well off who’s an infidel as a man who’s a Christian.  It doesn’t mean that a man can be outside the church and be just as fine as he can in the church.  We’re not saying that a man can repudiate…

…our age of rationalism? Well, that is what he is doing back in the days of the infidel French Revolution. Then Lépeaux confided to Talleyrand. He said, “My propaganda makes no way. What shall I do?” he asks Talleyrand. Now, the ex-bishop Talleyrand politely consoled him and said he feared…

…died in 1779. Voltaire said, “A hundred years from now there will not be a Bible in the earth save as an antiquarian curiosity.” And the infidel Hume said, “I see the twilight of Christianity.” What about that? What about that? Will we finally succumb to the terrible ravages of…

…concerns the phenomenon of the German higher critic. The title of the sermon could be The Higher Critics, or, as I would entitle it The Unbelieving Half Infidel Higher Critics of the Holy Word of God. That is my title for it. So, let us start off and look at…

…“Write down all the absurdities of the infidel, and you will find that it takes more faith to believe as an infidel than it does as a Christian.” Again, “That the universe was formed by a fortuitous concourse of atoms, I will no more believe than that the accidental jumbling…

…God; there’s not any God.” He also is a phenomenon just to look at him. He’s an infidel. He’s an atheist. He doesn’t believe in God. Therefore, there’s no such thing as God’s will. An atheist, an infidel, would have to be omniscient. You ask him, “Are you omniscient? Do…

…the truth, it was I.” And the infidel says, “I don’t believe it! It’s against science, it’s against experience, it’s incredulous, it’s not possible; I don’t believe it!” And he’s just as lost and damned an infidel as he was at the first. So I think again, you know that…

…for me. That’s what you want to do. Won’t do you any good.” So the preacher got down by the side of the infidel and prayed for him. And when he finished his prayer, the infidel said, “Ha, ha, ha, ha. Isn’t that what I told you? I’m just the…

…you look at it closely, how do those men die? David Hume, a philosopher and infidel – a famous one – ranted against the cross, ridiculed Christ, and at the same time confidently claimed that when his time came to die, he would face death fearlessly. Now, that’s David Hume,…

…and you have faith in a creed, but in irreligion you don’t have any faith, and you don’t have any creed. Nothing, again, is further from the truth, for it takes as much faith to believe the creed of an atheist or of an infidel as it does to believe…

…I notice here in the paper, the man is a graduate of the University of Chicago. It was of the University of Chicago, and its atheistic, infidel, modernistic, liberal school of divinity that an editorial in one of the great daily newspapers of Chicago said, quote: We are struck with…

…community, and everybody came. They closed the stores on the weekday mornings, and everybody came to the revival meetings. I remember the town infidel – and every town had his infidel – I remember the town infidel. He lived right back of our house. You could hear him all over…

…triumphantly, in an old-fashioned gospel way – to do it like that, that way, that way. This thing of liberalism and modernism: I call it “ecclesiastical infidelity.”  You can be atheistically infidel, materialistically infidel. You can also be a preacher and be an infidel!  You can be an ecclesiastic and…

…Paine. I read it, I hear it, I see it—extolling Thomas Paine. Thomas Paine was a rabid and fanatical infidel, and he loved to sow the seeds of unbelief and rejection among the people. He wrote pamphlets. And did you know Thomas Paine was as popular among the colonists as…

…“I can’t know anything in certainty.” Can we know the will of God? “No,” says the infidel, “we cannot. There’s no God to reveal His will to us.” I could ask him, “Are you omniscient? Do you know everything?” He’d have to reply, “No, I am not omniscient. I don’t…

…exhibition of it can be openly, gloriously seen, and it’s everywhere. In one of those Fiji Islands, a French atheist, a French infidel was making fun of one of those Fiji Islanders who was reading the Bible, the Word of God. And that past cannibal looked at that French infidel…

…being buried? Doubtless his body was flung away on a dung heap and that was the end of the life of Lazarus. Now the infidel and the skeptic and the atheist look at that beggar and they scoff, and they cry, “Ha, ha! Look at this lump of wretchedness and…

…our graduation from high school, to the same university. And to my astonishment, amazement, he turned to be a blatant infidel, an atheist! I went to his room one evening to talk to him. And as I walked into the room, he was seated there reading the infidel, Tom Paine’s…
