All the faithful men and women are to be as Abraham and Sarah; Abraham, the father of the faithful; and Sarah, a mother in Israel [Judg 5:7/2 Sam 20:19], to give suck, and to nourish up the seed, the heir of the promise [Gal 3:29]. Likewise, to be as Adam and Eve, before they fell, meet-helps [Gen 2... Read More
"Now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love" (1 Corinthians 13:13). LOVE is rightly called "the Queen of Christian graces." "The goal of this command," says Paul, "is love" (1 Timothy 1:5). It is a grace which all people profess to admire. It seems a plain practi... Read More
Recently, someone wrote in saying that we had a wrong understanding about the gospel and that we are spiritually blind. The writer said: “the message of Jesus and the Apostles was the Gospel of the Kingdom, not the gospel of salvation. The gospel of salvation is only a part of the real and ‘full’ go... Read More
"What, my son? and what, the son of my womb? and what, the son of my vows?" I was going to pass over this verse, but led to stop and write on it. NO doubt, there is probably some mother that would immediately identify with these words. Proverbs 31 is known for the description of a godly woman, a goo... Read More

ay 10, 1981 Proverbs 31:30 In nineteen hundred sixty six I happened on a girl, And spent two years a-pondering The value of that pearl. She has a face and has a heart All full of love and filling, And so I sold my singleness All fifty years, God willing. And I have never once looked back For fear of... Read More
Proverbs 20:15 I think I inherited from my mother a love for the book of Proverbs in the Old Testament. They were well marked on the india pages of her Bible and she quoted them to me often. I think probably they loomed large in her life because I was her only son and there is no other book in the B... Read More
"Who can find a virtuous woman? for her price is far above rubies. The heart of her husband doth safely trust in her, so that he shall have no need of spoil. She will do him good and not evil all the days of her life. She seeketh wool, and flax, and worketh willingly with her hands." "She openeth he... Read More
If and when a brother who has fallen into drunkenness repents with great sorrow over his sin and returns again to Christ, the church ought to embrace him in Christian love. “...ye ought rather to forgive him, and comfort him, lest perhaps such a one should be swallowed up with overmuch sorrow. Where... Read More
