matthew-11:12,-matthew-11:13

We are not aware that a full investigation of the prophetic significance of John the Baptist has ever been attempted by any former theologian, and we venture on a Herculean task without the aids for which normally we have so much reason to be grateful. Why did John baptise? What did his baptism real... Read More

Hold that fast which thou hast, that no man take thy crown. If I may but touch his garment, I shall be whole. — Lord, if thou wilt, thou canst make me clean. I will; be thou clean. — Faith as a grain of mustard seed. Cast not away ... your confidence, which hath great recompence of reward. — Work ou... Read More

Let us labour to enter into that rest. Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction: ... strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it. — The kingdom of heaven suffereth violence, and the v...

We are looking at what can happen in our lives when we take offence. We have to take ownership for the offence we carry and not try to pass the blame onto others. Offence is NOT sin. Taking offence upon ourselves is sin! Jesus often caused offence but no one would recognise His actions as sin. He of... Read More

Another objection which is sometimes urged, may be stated thus, "I sought the experience of holiness carefully and honestly and did not obtain it, hence there is no such a thing."

Do your diligence to come shortly unto me: For Demas has forsaken me, having loved this present world, and is departed unto Thessalonica; Crescens to Galatia, Titus unto Dalmatia. Only Luke is with me. Take Mark, and bring him with you: for he is profitable to me for the ministry. And Tychicus have ... Read More

Matthew 11:25-26. At that time Jesus answered and said, I make acknowledgment unto You, O Father, Lord of Heaven and earth; because You have hid these things from the wise and prudent, and hast revealed them unto babes. Even so, Father, for so it seemed good in Your sight. Do you see, how many ways ... Read More

Matt. XXII. 1-14. And Jesus answered and spoke again in parables. The kingdom of Heaven is like a certain king, which made a marriage for his son; and sent forth his servants to call them which were bidden to the wedding; and they would not come. Again, he sent forth other servants, saying, Tell the... Read More

Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on Him, If you continue in My word, then are you My disciples indeed. And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free. 1. Beloved, our condition needs much endurance; and endurance is produced when doctrines are deeply rooted. For as no wi... Read More

In Luke 17:20-21, where. He speaks of "the kingdom of God" -- this kingdom realm that we live in -- Jesus didn't call it "the kingdom." He called it "the realm' and I like it much better; Many of our translators are using the word "realm" now, and they should, because our word "kingdom" has these co... Read More
