Update 2019: Articles Most Read


 
You will notice that all of these most read articles are dated from the year 2016, when I did an expositional study in Isaiah. Therefore, most of these articles are from that book. That year we had a great upsurge in visitors to our English blog and, naturally, they mostly read the current articles. Visits to some excellent older articles were outnumbered, and therefore I will continue to provide their titles, dates and links, which appear after the 10 most read articles up to June of 2018, followed by the update to June of this year. 

The order changes a bit, when the numbers are updated and also a new article appears among the ten. The update to 2019 also provides a short summary of each article and I do the same for the older articles below them. I hope, if you have not read these articles, that you will take time to do so.

Our grandson, John, created this blogspot in 2011 and so the statistics are dated from that time. As of today, the total number of visits to this English blog has risen to 149,749. This past year we have had 25,498 visits. When we add the visits to our Spanish blogspot, the total number of visits increases to 401,458 and the number over the last year to 75,378 (obviously, we have many more Spanish than English readers).

The Ten Most Read Articles from 2019:

1.    Hezekiah’s Illness and Error                                11/04/16                     

This study covers both chapter 38 and 39 of Isaiah. It includes an attempt to explain a very complicated issue concerning the sovereign will of God.

      2.      A Mighty Move of God                                       10/26/16                                     

This is a study of Isaiah, chapter 37, with subtitles: Judah humbles itself before God; Jerusalem honors God above all; The house of prayer; The answer from God through Isaiah; and A mighty move of God.

3.    Divine Power and Attributes                                  11/17/16                    

Here is one of the most powerful chapters in the book of Isaiah… chapter 40. It begins with these words from the Almighty, “Comfort, comfort my people!” You know this chapter particularly, because of its last verse: “They that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength, they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint.”

4.       Eight Tactics of the Enemy                                  10/22/16                     

This is an important study about how the enemy works against the minds and lives of God’s people to this day. It is from Isaiah 36.

      5.  Blessing Follows the Curse                                     10/13/16                     

My comments on chapter 34 and 35 of Isaiah, verse-by-verse, learning as the Holy Spirit teaches us from His textbook. It is wonderful to see, throughout the Bible, that the Lord’s stories have good endings!

6.      The Syndrome of Hubris                                      10/01/16                     

The subject of this article is one that I most frequently bring up in preaching these days. Understanding this Greek term Hubris, helps us to understand what is happening in the minds and hearts of many “Christian” leaders in our times.

7.     Spurgeon, Ryle and the Jews                              12/17/16                     

Towards the end of the 20th Century, two men of God saw that His promises, given to the Jews by their prophets, must be fulfilled. These specifically referred to their return to the Promised Land. Around that time the Zionist Movement began, in which the God of Israel placed in the heart of His people to return to Palestine.

8.    Only God Foretells the Future                             12/05/16                     

One of the reasons that Christians have determined that the Bible is the Word of God, is due to prophecies that have literally been fulfilled. A high percentage of the biblical writings are prophetic. There are over 300 details concerning the coming Messiah in the Old Testament, which were literally fulfilled. Prophecies have been astoundingly fulfilled in the past century and this will go one until the end of time.

9. New Serbian Blog!                                                 9/08/16                                    

This article over the efforts of the Serbians to create their own blogspot is very encouraging. They are providing excellent literature for believers in their country. How pleased I am to see good literature available to serious Christians, who love truth and are hungry to receive something, with which to be spiritually enriched!

10.     Zion’s Sinners and Righteous Ones                  9/13/16                       

Zion will be literally restored in the Millennium, but today it serves as a type of the church. In the parables of Jesus, He made it very clear that the Kingdom of God, revealed on earth, is imperfect. There are sinners in Zion among the righteous and from time to time they are exposed.
 

In addition:

I want to bring to your attention older articles, written previous to 2016, which received hundreds of visits. If you have never read them, I greatly encourage you to do so. A short summary is given for each one…

1.    Matt Luneau Writes about Brandon                                4/29/13

People continue to read the stories about our friend, Coach Luneau. The coach suffered a stroke since those stories were written, but he is back on his feet. The following year, his high school team was undefeated, winning the Vermont State Championship! The top story on this list is that of a star player’s accident and how God moved through it to speak to hundreds of people (if not thousands). If you have never read this story of God’s mighty moving upon high school students, please read it. If you’ve read it, you may want to read it again.

      2.   A Voice from Heaven  by Dave Brueckner                      11/2/13

      I am always anxious to get articles written by our sons, Dan and Dave. Dan wrote an article, “I Have Found the Book” about King Josiah. I translated it to Spanish and it is one of the most read articles on our Spanish blog. Right next to the top of the blog is this article by Dave. He tells us that heaven is a noisy place!

      3.   What Does It Mean to be Used of God?                         5/26/14

This article brings us a surprising lesson! It tells the story of a young Spanish boy killed in Croatia and how God moved during the eight months that he was in a coma before he died.

      4.   Quotes from Len Ravenhill's Letters, no. 11                     2/21/13

From 1983 to 1993 we received forty-five letters from Leonard Ravenhill. These are two of them that have been most read on the blogspot.

      5.   Karyn's Letter about Plane Accident                                2/8/13

     When our daughter-in-law, Karyn, heard that Steve’s plane had gone down in the Alaskan bush country, she gathered the children in the living room. Together they prayed.
      
      6.  Wake Up! It’s Later Than You Think                               3/19/12

     This article is an attempt to make God’s people aware of the great deception that is taking place even in the area of Bible translation. Please be informed.

7.   Strong Delusion                                                                7/29/11

      And more deception! Here you will read of two books that sold millions of copies. They both were written by people who believe in universal salvation… the assertion that everyone will be saved in the end. No one will go to hell. Christians, by the millions, lent an ear to two false prophets.     

      8.   Coach Luneau                                                                   2/13/13

      How Coach Luneau left a promising future at Syracuse University, one of the highest ranking athletic universities in the country. What drew him away? A high school basketball program in a small town in Vermont… and a calling from God.      

      9.   Old Christians                                                                   1/8/13

      I am soul-weary in a secular world that has no fear of God and is anti-God in every respect. I am tired of a “church”, which can no longer be termed evangelical, in which the bulk of the members are not born-again, have no spiritual discernment, and tolerate the entrance of most of the world’s garbage.   

 10.  The Testimony of Herman Williams                               2/29/12

And finally, the refreshing life story of an old Navajo friend, Herman Williams. A Navajo named Williams? The government agent, in charge of registering his father, couldn’t pronounce, much less spell, his real name, so he became Williams. Herman, a simple Christian, was one of the godliest men that I have ever met.
