Matthew chapter 26

J.C. RyleMatthew chapter 26 MATTHEW 26:1-13 It happened, when Jesus had finished all these words, that he said to his disciples, "You know that after two days the Passover is coming, and the Son of Man will be delivered up to be crucified."

Does Association with Evil Defile?

In answer to this question, we say, without hesitation, it does. Our witnesses are type, prophecy and New Testament Scriptures. We will give a few examples: First, type. And here we have a large field before us. We will commence with God's people in Egypt, ere they leave that land to journey on to C... Read More

Didn't Jesus simply rise in a non-physical, spirit form?

Some people say that Jesus' resurrection was not physical, but a spirit form. Groups like the Jehovah's Witnesses hold to this. But, the Bible teaches that the resurrection of Jesus was physical, not simply spiritual. In John 2:19-21, Jesus said, "Destroy this temple and in three days I will raise i... Read More

Deuteronomy 26

John Nelson DarbyThis chapter gives a kind of epitome of the book of Deuteronomy. This book is totally different to all the other books in the Pentateuch; for the people are viewed as in the land, and it is the ordering of them in the land.

Jonathan: a word on Working with God 1 Samuel 14

John Nelson DarbyIn the doings of Jonathan, we get energy of faith in the midst of sad confusion in Israel. The people of God had sought in a carnal way to establish themselves against their enemies. A people of no faith to lean immediately upon God, they had asked for themselves a king; and whilst testifying to His... Read More

Synopsis of the Books of the Bible - Deuteronomy

John Nelson DarbyWe now come to the Book of Deuteronomy, a book full of interest in its moral warnings as to testimony, but presenting fewer subjects for interpretation and exegesis than those, the summary of which we have hitherto sought to give. This book takes up Israel just on the borders of Canaan, and insists ... Read More
Principles For The Gathering Of Believers

76 - Chronological Bible Reading of Scriptures

Principles For The Gathering Of BelieversThere is a great need in the body of Christ for consistent reading of the Holy Scriptures in their entirety, book by book, chapter by chapter, verse by verse. In this case we are encouraging a chronological reading of the Scriptures. Most of the confusion is created when certain teachers, groups, or... Read More

Rev 12:11. The Blood of the Covenant

Horatius Bonar"They overcame him by the blood of the Lamb."—Revelation 12:11. "Behold, the blood of the covenant."—Exodus 24:8. All through Scripture we find traces of the blood. 'You shall bruise His heel' was the first reference to it. The bruised heel of the woman's seed was to be the foundation stone of our d... Read More

Obedience Brings Blessing

Charles SpurgeonObserve and hear all these words, which I command thee, that it may go well with thee, and with thy children after thee for ever, when thou doest that which is good and right in the sight of the Lord thy God.

Jacob in Genesis 28 - 36

Genesis 28 - 36. Have already followed the course of the Book of Genesis to the close of chapter 27. From that chapter to chapter 36, Jacob is principal; and it is that portion which I now purpose to consider. There is a very important era in the life of Jacob afterwards--his sojourn in Egypt for se... Read More
