Remembering R.H. “Tex” Williams

Tex Williams graduated to glory on October 23, 2019. World Bible School’s current chairman, Howard Norton, sent this message:
This is another giant who has left our earthly presence. I am thankful for his life and friendship and for his boundless energy and talent for reaching the lost. Although we will miss him, I am thankful that he has crossed the finish line and is in a better place.

In the Sermon on the Mount, Jesus lays foundational concepts for His Kingdom. His conclusion sums up that foundation: “Everyone then who hears these words of Mine and does them will be like a wise man who built his house on the rock” (Matthew 7:24).

Have you noticed how partial we are to comfort these days? Today’s new songs make us feel good. They are sweet and attractive, often based on comforting Scriptures. The Word should inspire our songs (Colossians 3:16). But that same Word has a sharp side. Where are contemporary choruses that warn about God’s wrath? Where are the “hard sayings”? They too reflect the God we adore.
