SermonGospel Preaching Commanded
      There are those who misrepresent the doctrine of election in this way. Here I am sitting down at my table tonight with my family to tea. It is a cold winter's night, and outside on the street are some hungry starving tramps and children, and they come and knock on my door and they say, "We are so hungry, Sir, Oh, we are so hungry and cold, and we a ...read
ArticleHave You Truly Come To Christ
      By the way of introduction let us bring before the reader the following Scriptures: 1. "Ye will not come to Me, that ye might have life" (John 5:40). 2. "Come unto Me, all ye that labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest" (Matthew 11:28). 3. "No man can come to Me, except the Father which hath sent Me draw him" (John 6:44). 4. "All ...read
DevotionalHe Instructed Him
      "He instructed him." So He does us. It was to instruct us that God, in His great mercy, gave us THE SCRIPTURES. He has not left us to grope our way in darkness, but has provided us with a lamp for our feet and a light for our path. Nor are we left to our own unaided powers in the study of the Word. We are supplied with an infallible Instructor. The ...read
DevotionalI am the Way, Truth Life
      "I am the way." Christ spans the distance between God and the sinner. Man would fain manufacture a ladder of his own, and . . . climb up to God. But that is impossible. That is the way which seems right unto man, but the end thereof are the ways of death (Prov. 14:12). It is Satan who would keep the exercised sinner on his self-imposed journey to G ...read
ArticleIt is Finished
      How terribly have these blessed words of Christ been misunderstood, misappropriated and misapplied! How many seem to think that on the cross the Lord Jesus accomplished a work which rendered it unnecessary for the beneficiaries of it to live holy lives on earth. So many have been deluded into thinking that, so far as reaching heaven is concerned, i ...read
ArticleKeeping the Heart
      In Christendom today there are thousands of professing Christians against whom little or nothing in the way of fault could be found so far as their outward lives are concerned. They live moral, clean, upright, honest lives while at the same time the state of their hearts is totally neglected. It is not sufficient to bring our outward deportment int ...read
DevotionalKnowing God
      God can only be known by means of a supernatural revelation of Himself Apart from the Scriptures, even a theoretical acquaintance with Him is impossible. It still holds true that 'the world by wisdom knew not God' (I Cor. 1:21). Where the Scriptures are ignored, God is "the unknown God' (Acts 17:23). But something more than the Scriptures is req ...read
ArticleLast Things Last
      From Studies in the Scriptures Publication: December, 1939 We opened the year by writing upon "First things First," so it seems appropriate that we should offer a few remarks upon Last things in this closing issue of 1939. The subject suggested by this title could be dealt with in various ways. We might, for example, consider that procrastinatin ...read
DevotionalLove of the Truth or For the Truth
      It is not simply a knowledge of the Truth that saves, but a love of it that is the essential prerequisite. This is clear from 2 Thessalonians 2:10, "Because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved..." Since then there is love for the Truth in contradistinction from a love of the Truth, and a natural love for Christ in c ...read
ArticleMinisterial Thieves
      From Studies in the Scriptures Publication: May, 1939 We have often thought it might be interesting and instructive if we were to devote a short series of articles to some of the misunderstood and misinterpreted texts of the Bible. They are not few in number, nor are the mistakes made in their interpretation trivial in importance: there is nothi ...read
ArticleMortified Eyes
      From Studies in the Scriptures Publication: November, 1939 "Turn away mine eyes from beholding vanity: quicken Thou me in Thy way" (Psa. 119:37). The first request is for the removing of impediments to obedience, the other for addition of new degrees of grace. These two are fitly joined, for they have a natural influence upon one another: unless ...read
ArticleOur Advocate
      From Studies in the Scriptures Publication: March, 1939 "If anyone sin we have an Advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous" (1 John 2:1). He is the only Practicer in the Court of Heaven, and therefore He is full of the businesses of His Church. It is His office to dispatch the affairs of those that come under Him, and crave His favou ...read
DevotionalPerfect Peace
      From Studies in the Scriptures Publication: October, 1935 Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on Thee: because he trusteth in Thee" (Isa. 26:3). What is signified by a mind "stayed on" the Lord? At least three things. First, to make the Lord the Portion of my soul. All around us are those vainly seeking contentment in thing ...read
ArticlePersonal Holiness
      By our fall in Adam we not only lost the favor of God but also the purity of our nature and therefore we need to be both reconciled to God and renewed in our inner man, for without personal holiness "no man shall see the Lord" (Heb. 12:14). "As He which hath called you is holy; so be ye holy in all manner of conversation (behavior); because it is w ...read
ArticlePoor Yet Rich
      From Studies in the Scriptures Publication: August, 1934 One of the prayers which the Lord teaches His people to pray is, "Bow down Thine ear, O LORD, hear me: for I am poor and needy" (Psa. 86:1). Empty professors filled with pride, by their very attitude and actions, boast that they are "rich, and increased with goods, and have need of nothing ...read
ArticlePractical Godliness
      It is much, very much to be thankful for when the Holy Spirit has illumined a man's understanding, dispersed the mists of error, and established him in the Truth. Yet that is only the beginning. The Holy Scriptures are "profitable" not only for "doctrine" but also for "reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness" (2 Tim. 3:16). Observ ...read
ArticlePrayer
      By the words "believe that ye receive them": we understand, expect God to give them to you. But it is at this point that so many of God's people fail oftenest in their prayer lives. There are three chief things to be attended to in prayer. First, make sure that you are asking for something that is in accordance with God's Word: see 1 John 5:14. ...read
ArticlePrayer Sighs
      Studies in the Scriptures Publication - 1947 The exercises of soul and pangs of heart find expression in sighs and sobs, in moans and groans, yet such as mere nature never produced. The word "sigh" has a much stronger force in its Scriptural usage than in our ordinary conversation, or we should say, in more modern speech, for three hundred year ...read
ArticlePreaching False and True
      Licentious Preaching The twofoldness of Divine Truth is broadly illustrated by the dividing of God's Word into its two Testaments, wherein, characteristically speaking, we have set forth the Divine Law and the Divine Gospel, and where distinctively (though not exclusively) God is revealed respectively as "Light" and "Love." The same twofoldness ...read
Book
Profiting From the Word of God - Table of Contents
      There is grave reason to believe that much Bible reading and Bible study of the last few years has been of no spiritual profit to those who engaged in it. Yea, we go further; we greatly fear that in many instances it has proved a curse rather than a blessing. This is strong language, we are well aware, yet no stronger than the case calls for. Divin ...read
