PROFITING FROM THE WORD 6. THE SCRIPTURES AND OBEDIENCE

THE DOCTRINE OF JUSTIFICATION 9. ITS EVIDENCE

A.W. PinkTHE DOCTRINE OF JUSTIFICATION 9. ITS EVIDENCE In Romans 3:28 the Apostle Paul declared "that a man is justified by faith without the deeds of the law," and then produces the case of Abraham to prove his assertion.

THE SCRIPTURES AND OBEDIENCE

A.W. PinkAll professing Christians are agreed, in theory at least, that it is the bounden duty of those who bear His name to honor and glorify Christ in this world. But as to how this is to be done, as to what He requires from us to this end, there is wide difference of opinion. Many suppose that honoring Ch... Read More

Rahab: Holy or Hypocrite - Hebrews 11:31

Jon CoursonOne of the most well-known chapters in the entire Bible, Hebrews 11 is known as God’s Hall of Faith. I find this Hall of Faith amazing — as much for who’s not in it as who is. I mean, think who’s missing: Elijah and Elisha, Jehoshaphat and Jeremiah. I would have thought they would have been shoo-ins... Read More

The Liberating Law of the Spirit of Life

John PiperRomans 8:1-2 We have come to the fourth part of a five part series of messages which are dealing with aspects of Biblical truth which I think we need to know if we are to live the Christian life. First we talked about the essence of sin: "Whatever is not from faith is sin" (Romans 14:23). Second, we... Read More
