How It All Began

J. Vernon McGeeThe problem of origins provokes more violent controversies, wild theories, and wide disagreements than any other subject in the Bible.

The Moral Glory of the Lord Jesus Christ

Introduction. It is the Moral Glory, or, as we speak, the character of the Lord Jesus, on which I meditate in these pages. All went up to God as a sacrifice of sweet savour. Every expression of Himself in every measure, however small, and in whatever relationship it was rendered, was incense. In His... Read More

Samson's Riddle

Genesis 1 - 9. "Out of the eater came forth meat, and out of the strong came forth sweetness." Samson's riddle--God's riddle. (Judges 14: 14.) This has been abundantly illustrated in the story of this world. May I not say it is the key of the whole of it. It figuratively shows us God and the Enemy a... Read More

Patriarchal Faith

The patriarchs had come forth from the place of nature or of the flesh, in the faith of a promised inheritance in the land of Canaan. And what is to be noticed in the strength and victory of their faith is this--they cling to that promise, in spite of two very severe trials of it: that is, in the fa... Read More

The Garden of Eden

Genesis 2. The full act of creation under God's hand is detailed in Genesis 1. The work of creation is again given us here, but much more succinctly; the narrative soon passing, the general action confines itself to Eden, or to the garden of Eden, because there the scene of the great action about to...

Enoch

It is not so much of Enoch himself that I now purpose, in the Lord's grace, I would hope, to write a little, but rather of the times and the saints before the flood. Whether it be of them or of him, the materials, as we know, are very scanty; but in the way and wisdom of the Spirit of God, they are ... Read More

The Words of David, the Words of Jehovah, Father, Son, and Spirit

John Gill2 SAMUEL 23:2,3. The Spirit of the Lord spake by me, and his Word was in my Tongue: the God of Israel said, the Rock of Israel spake to me. Having considered in a former discourse the preceding verse, which contains a line description of David, that tends to recommend to our notice those last words ... Read More

The How, Why, and When of Creation - Sermon 2

John MacArthurAs you know, we have been doing a series in the last several weeks on the subject of origins. Obviously this had alerted my mind to our society and perhaps more sensitively than it has been in the past. And I think it's safe to say that the lie that the universe as we know it today evolved is the mo... Read More
