His master-purpose! (Charles Spurgeon, “Christ’s Incarnation, the Foundation of Christianity”) Let us gather with grateful boldness around the infant in the manger, and behold our God! “Thou shalt call His name Jesus, for He shall save His people from their sins!” Matthew 1:21 The great object of our Lord’s coming here was not to live, […]
The one, precious, all absorbing theme! from “The Precious Things of God” by Octavius Winslow The Word of God must ever be transcendently precious to the believer. The Bible is, from its commencement to its close, a record of the Lord Jesus. Around Him the divine and glorious Word centers; all its wondrous types, prophecies, […]
“Great is the mystery of godliness; God was manifest in the flesh.” 1 Timothy 3:16 J.C.Philpot A mystery indeed it is, a great, a deep, an unfathomable mystery; for who can rightly understand how the divine Word, the eternal Son of God, was made flesh, and dwelt among us? “Who shall declare his generation?” (Isa. […]

I wish the Gospel were always called by its right name, “GLAD TIDINGS”, then we should know better what we are about. Now the OFFER of glad tidings is simply absurd, it is nonsense!

SONS OF GOD from Spurgeon’s sermon, SONS OF GOD If we are born into God’s family, it is a miracle of mercy! It is one of the ever-blessed exhibitions of the infinite love of God which without any cause in us, has set itself upon us. If you are this day an heir of heaven, […]
“Sovereign Grace Hated by the Modern Religionist” By C H Spurgeon If anything is hated bitterly, it is the out-and-out gospel of the grace of God, especially if that hateful word “sovereignty” is mentioned with it. Dare to say “He will have mercy on whom he will have mercy, and he will have compassion […]
“Preaching peace by Jesus Christ (he is Lord of all).” Acts 10:36. Octavius Winslow LET us turn our attention to the subject-matter of our Lord’s address to the weary. What does He speak to them? Some would reply, the law. No; but the law of God never spoke a word of comfort to the weary. […]
What is a successful ministry? (Don Fortner) “Now it is required that those who have been given a trust must prove faithful.” 1 Corinthians 4:2 The desperate need of the hour is faithful men in the pulpits of our churches. We have an over-abundance of preachers. We do not need any more slick, polished, well-educated […]
“THERE WAS A MAN SENT FROM GOD” John 1:6 Don Fortner Of this you may be sure – When God intends to bless his people and bestow his grace upon them, he will send a man as his messenger to them. The man whom God sends has a message from God, which he must deliver. […]
