Acts 16:11-15

Exposition of the Gospel of John CHAPTER 10 CHRIST MAGNIFIED BY HIS FORERUNNER John 3:22-36 We give first a brief Analysis of the passage which is to occupy our attention. Here we see: 1. The Lord Jesus and His Disciples in Judea, verse 22. 2. John baptizing in Aenon, verses 23, 24. 3. The attempt t... Read More

REGENERATION OR THE NEW BIRTH Chapter 2 ITS NATURE We have now arrived at the most difficult part of our subject. Necessarily so, for we are about to contemplate the workings of God. These are ever mysterious, and nothing whatever can be really known about them, save what He Himself has revealed the... Read More

REGENERATION OR THE NEW BIRTH Chapter 3 ITS EFFECTS "The wind bloweth where it listeth, and thou hearest the sound thereof, but canst not tell whence it cometh, and whither it goeth: so is every one that is born of the Spirit" (John 3:8). Though the wind be imperious in its action, man being unable ... Read More

STUDIES ON SAVING FAITH Part III 8. COMING TO CHRIST WITH OUR AFFECTIONS "All that the Father giveth me shall come to me" (John 6:37), declared the Lord Jesus.

THE HOLY SPIRIT Chapter 27 The Spirit Transforming 2 Corinthians 3:18 Just as there are certain verses in the Old Testament and the Gospels which give us a miniature of the redemptive work of Christ for God’s people—such, for example, as Isaiah 53:5 and John 3:16—so in the Epistles there are some co...

The Satisfaction of Christ Studies in the Atonement 10. Its Efficacy In our last chapter we considered the Divine design in Christ’s Satisfaction; in this we propose to show from Scripture that that design must be accomplished. Two widely differing views have been taken concerning the effectuation o... Read More
