There have been more tears cried on the pages of the Psalms than any other book, because it is a book that instructs us about who God is, who we are, and what to do in times of crisis. In the Psalms, we are taught how to look forward to the Messiah's kingdom, how to lament, celebrate, praise, trust, and recognize God's coming...

"Hour Of Discernment"
"New Revivalism" Charles Finney, D.L. Moody, and a Man-Centred Gospel
In the first half of the nineteenth century the Holiness Movement swept through both America and Europe. This new revivalism was a victory of pragmatism over the authority of scripture. It was a further erosion of earlier Calvinistic beliefs, especially the doctrines of election and predestination. The so-called "Second Great Awakening," which sprang out of the Holiness Movement in the late 1820s and the 1830s, was, as author Michael Bunker has suggested, "really just a Jesuitical backlash against the staunch Grace doctrine focus of the real Great Awakening.
