John 5:23-30

John ChrysostomFor My Father judges no man, but has committed all judgment to the Son; that all men should honor the Son, even as they honor the Father. 1.

A "Man in Christ" and the flesh. 2 Corinthians 12

Galatians 2:20 Edinburgh

John Nelson DarbyI would just pick up a little point or two. And first how can we get rid of this power of self? The end of Galatians 2 will introduce what I mean.

Romans 7

John Nelson DarbyYou will remember what we have been treating of up to the end of chapter 3, all under sin, and propitiation made for our sins by the precious blood of Christ.
