Take In The Victor’s Name! By S. D. Gordon The intense fact is this: Satan has the power to hold the answer back for a while.

That God May Be All In All By Andrew Murray There are three great motives that urge us to humility. It becomes me as a creature, as a sinner, as a saint.

The Authority Of Christ By W. C. Moore This is a day of extreme lawlessness--and the judgments of God are coming upon this ungodly generation except there be a deep repentance.

The Believer’s Union With Christ By Theodore H. Epp Do we realize that God desires all men to be saved?

The Bible – A Treasure Invaluable By Adolf Saphir If an angel from heaven, who had been before God’s throne for thousands of years, came down to earth to dwell among us, and was willing to communicate to us out of the treasure of his knowledge of divine things, how eagerly we would seek him out, and...

The Chained Ambassador By Samuel L.
