Reformation

May 26, 2024

 REFORMATION?  I  hear  a  lot  about  “reformation”  in  our  day.  There  are  reformed churches,  reformed  doctrine,  reformed  preachers  and  reformed believers,  everything  seems  to  be  “reformed.”  The  word  “reform” means  to  “improve”  or  to  “make  better.”  If  “reformation”  means  to improve myself or make myself better, then, I don’t need reformation! What I need is […]

SECONDARY IMPORTANCE

May 22, 2024

SECONDARY IMPORTANCE             I have noticed that the main issue that men grapple with over the doctrine of election is not whether or not the Scripture teaches it.  Any honesty at all will make a man admit the Scriptures do teach this doctrine. What men grapple with is whether or […]

Square me! Prune me!

May 22, 2024

Square me! Prune me! C.H.Spurgeon “There is more hewing, and hacking, and squaring used on a stone which is to be set in the wall of a stately palace — than that which is placed in a rock wall. Just so, the vine is carefully pruned — when the bramble is untouched.” This should reconcile believers to their chastisements. It is a well-worn […]

The poor have the gospel preached to them

May 22, 2024

“The poor have the gospel preached to them.” Matthew 11:5 J.C.Philpot What is the gospel? Is not the gospel a proclamation of pure mercy, of super-abounding grace?
