Revelation 4 - 19: 10. Last week we were occupied with the vision given to John in Patmos. Being in the Spirit, he saw Jesus Christ in the midst of seven golden candlesticks, but with all the glorious insignia of the Ancient of days (yet Son of man) examining the churches. The whole scene was brough... Read More
Revelation 19: 11 - 22. On entering upon our third lecture, I would remind you of the three divisions into which the book of the Revelation divides itself, according to the three scenes and actings in which our Lord presents Himself in it; and, consequently thereon, the differences to His servant Jo...

John 1:29-39 The question before us is "Master, where dwellest Thou?" The most important question for the sinner surely is, "What must I do to be saved?"

1867 "He shall eat the bread of his God, both of the most holy, and of the holy." Lev. 21:22 It is not easy to say whether the words, "bread of his God," refer generally to the sacrifices and offerings, or specially to the "show-bread." We take them as pointing to the latter; as, indeed, in any inte... Read More

Revelation 3: 14-22 It must strike every careful reader that the Laodiceans are addressed as if they did not know the gospel. They are very boastful of their great acquisitions. "Thou sayest, I am rich, and increased with goods and have need of nothing"; but when they come to be inspected, they are ... Read More
There can be no real work for Christ if one be not in the path with Him, and the effort to work for Him without being in the path with Him betrays itself in the character and intention of the work. If I am not in the path with Christ, I must be in the path of man which, be it ever so good, is after ... Read More
It is worthy of note that Peter, the one to whom was revealed the rock on which Christ builds His church, and who is there confirmed in the name Peter, as himself material [Gk. petros] for this new and unique structure, that he, at that very time, as recorded in the same Scripture (Matthew 16: 16-24...
