Steadfastness In Conviction

"My son, fear thou the Lord and the king: and meddle not with them that are given to change" (Proverbs 24.21). During the Lewis revival I well recall the mighty impact made as the powerful breath of the Spirit touched community after community. Everywhere, men and women of all ages became convicted,...

On Being Led by the Spirit

Text: "For as many as are led by the Spirit of God they are the sons of God." Rom. 8:14. There is another passage a little like this, recorded in Gal. 5:25, which reads thus: "If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit." Mark the Divine order: Here we find that life precedes activity. ... Read More

The Cross of Jesus Christ

What are its uses and applications, by the Spirit, in the Scriptures? The cross seems to me to be used in scripture as especially connected with shame and disgrace. The cross was in itself a cruel and a disgraceful heathen mode of death -- kept, even by them, for the very vilest. It seemed to say --... Read More

The Gospel in the Gates of Jerusalem

J. Vernon McGeeWhen the Lord Jesus Christ rode into Jerusalem to proclaim publicly His right and title to kingship, the multitudes shouted the hosannas. This so enraged the religious rulers that they attempted to silence the voices of praise and, failing, demanded that the Lord rebuke and silence them. But He, wit... Read More

The Difference Between Spiritual Ministry and Carnal

In the believer there is the natural mind, and there is the spiritual, or "the mind of Christ". Now it is as each is addressed that the ministry is spiritual or carnal. When the theme in the mind of the speaker is simply Christ in His divine reality, the ministry is spiritual; but when man, or his a... Read More

Having the Spirit

J.C. Ryle"Worldly people, who do not have the Spirit." Jude 19 I take it for granted that every reader of this paper believes in the Holy Spirit. The number of people in this country who are infidels, deists, or Socinians, and openly deny the doctrine of the Trinity, is happily not very great. Most people ha... Read More

The Holy Spirit

J.C. Ryle"If anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, he does not belong to Him." (Romans 8:9) The subject of this paper is one of the deepest importance to our souls. That subject is the work of God the Holy Spirit. The solemn words of the text which heads this page demand the attention of all who believe... Read More

A Brief Word on the Epistle to the Galatians

I believe that we might shortly describe this epistle as thus--the "scripture" by the ministry of Paul now, as once by the voice of Sarah, casting the bondwoman and her son out of the house of Abraham. The apostle, in order to this, first proves his warrant. And this he does to perfection in Gal. 1,... Read More

New Creation

There is a deeper purpose and nobler work in God than creation. Creation occupied His hand, and displayed His power and Godhead, and was then, in some sense, left at man's disposal, so that its condition was to be determined by the allegiance or rebellion of man. But there was another work ordered i... Read More
