matthew-28:20

At this point we can scarcely do better than seek to arrive at a correct understanding of the emphatic words spoken so clearly by the Lord Jesus and recorded in Matthew 28:19,20. Until that moment the apostles had only baptised people in the name of the Lord Jesus because that is all they had been a... Read More

Chapter Eight from the book Meditations on the Sacred Humanity of Our Blessed Redeemer But we pass on to the resurrection of the blessed Lord from the dead; and here we shall have to establish the doctrine before we enter into its experimental fruits. 1. The first thing that we notice is, what we ma... Read More

1 Corinthians 1:10-17 It is surprising to me that Paul would say, "Christ did not send me to baptize," when, in fact, one of the last things Jesus said to His disciples was, "Go, make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. . ."
