There are few subjects, bearing upon the practical side of the Christian life, that believers are more exercised about than that they may be "led of the Lord" in all their ways; yet when some important decision has to be made, they are often at a stand to know how "the Lord's mind" is to be obtained...

CHAPTER TWO His Anointing 1 Samuel 16 and 17 In our last chapter we called attention to the time in which David’s lot was cast. The spirituality of Israel had indeed fallen to a low ebb. The law of God was no longer heeded, for "every man did that which was right in his own eyes" (Judges 21:25). The... Read More
In this chapter we shall attempt little more than to point out the connecting links between the Sinaitic and the Davidic covenants. The various covenants recorded in the Old Testament, as we have previously stated, mark the principal stages in the development of God’s purpose of mercy toward our fal... Read More
THE HOLY SPIRIT Chapter 24 The Spirit Sealing Closely connected with the Spirit’s work of witnessing with the Christian’s spirit that he is a child of God, is His operation in sealing. This appears clearly from 2 Corinthians 1:19-22 and Ephesians 1:13. The riches of the Christian are found in the pr... Read More

In the 1st book we see him brought from obscurity into honour and praise, and there standing, by the good hand of God, in full righteousness amid the persecutions of the wicked. In the 2nd...

I recollect that already to you has been explained what Idithun is....Let us see how far he has leaped over, and whom he has leaped over, and in what place, though he has leaped over certain men, he is situate, when...

1. THE ASSEMBLY OF THE HOLY SERBIAN ENLIGHTENERS AND TEACHERS On this day are commemorated, not all the Serbian saints in general, but rather only a few archbishops and patriarchs: Saint Sava, the first Archbishop of the Serbs called "Equal to the Apostles"; Arsenius, the successor to St. Sava, a gr...

September 5, 1982 Isaiah 64:1-4 One of the rare delights of this summer was that my 2½ year old Abraham became a preacher. One morning I came up from downstairs and awakened the family with Psalm 20:7, "Some boast of chariots and some of horses; but we boast of the name of the Lord our God." I annou... Read More
