True pilgrims!

True pilgrims!(from “Solitude Sweetened” by Octavius Winslow) Fellow pilgrims, the heavenly way we travelis more or less a lonely way.  We have, atmost, but few companions. It is a “little flock,”and only here and there we meet a traveler, who,like ourselves, is journeying towards heaven. Because the way is narrow, difficult, andhumiliating to the flesh, […]

Self Promoting Preachers “He that speaketh of himself seeketh his own glory: but he that seeketh his glory that sent him, the same is true, and no unrighteousness is in him.” (John 7:18) Multitudes there are, like Diotrephes, who fill the pulpits of churches in every age. Craving the honour of men and loving to […]

The love of the truth

The love of the truth (J. C. Philpot, “The Valley of Achor” 1861) “They perish because they did not receive the love of  the truth, that they might be saved.” 2 Thess. 2:10 There is a receiving of ‘the truth’, and a receiving of ‘the love of the truth’. These two things widely differ. To […]

What is it to preach the gospel? “Salvation is, in its entirety, the work of God’s free and sovereign grace in Christ. Election, redemption, justification, sanctification, and preservation are all works of grace alone, in no way conditioned upon the will, works, or worth of the sinner.” What Is it to Preach the Gospel? To […]

Is Our Message Offensive?

s Our Message Offensive?         Paul called his message “the offense of the cross” (Galatians 5:11).  Again and again he warned that the true Gospel of God’s grace and glory would meet with great opposition from the religious world and the natural world.  “The preaching of the cross is foolishness” (I Corinthians 1:18).  “The natural […]

The most hideous blasphemy ever to be spewed from the pit of darkness!

The most hideous blasphemy ever to be spewed from the pit of darkness! (Don Fortner) Universal atonement is the most hideous blasphemy ever to be spewed from the pit of darkness! No greater blasphemy ever spewed from the pit of Hell, than the blasphemous assertion that Christ died to redeem the multitudes who suffer the […]

All the devil’s tricks!

All the devil’s tricks! J.C.Philpot 2Cor. 2:11 Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices. Satan is so wily—his agents so surround us—their designs are so masked—their language so plausible—their manners so insinuating—their appearance often so imposing—their arguments so subtle—their activity so unwearied—their insight into our weaknesses […]

The religion which I want

Posted by on March 15, 2020 at 11:12 am

The religion which I want J.C.Philpot I am quite sick of modern religion—it is such a mixture, such a medley, such a compromise. I find much, indeed, of this religion in my own heart, for it suits the flesh well—but I would not have it so, and grieve it should be so. The religion which […]

Babylon is not a literal city

OUR LORD HERE COMMANDS US TO SEPARATE OURSELVES FROM BABYLON, THE GREAT WHORE. Again, I stress the fact that Babylon is not a literal city. And it certainly is not a literal woman. Babylon is all false religion in this world. It is the mother of all idolatry and abominable doctrine of the earth. Babylon […]
