john-1:14

A welcome calm followed the bitter storm! Certain religious leaders questioned a poor man regarding his life-long blindness, and how he was saved from it. Born blind, he now stood before them with good eye-sight. How was this to be explained? The blind bigotry of these men made them despisers of the... Read More

“That in all things He might have the Pre-eminence” (Colossians 1:18). The question of pre-eminence has been settled long since. It has been settled unalterably by the One who could do it with authority and finality—by our blessed God Himself. Pride, restlessness, and ambition have at all times aime... Read More

We live in the day when this has been made known to those who are the subjects of God’s redeeming grace, who have heard and believed the Gospel, and who are saved and are sealed by the Spirit.

Many of them erringly assert that the Trinity is really a deceptive doctrine of three gods. Of course it is not, but that does not stop them from claiming it is... Read More

In Islam, what is the greatest act of love Allah has ever accomplished? I asked this question of several Muslims and I got similar answers: he forgave us of our sins; he gave us families and provisions; he showed us mercy; he gave us the Qur'an. The answers didn't vary much beyond these responses. I... Read More

"For I through the law died unto the law, that I might live unto God " (Galatians 2:19, ASV). No true believer expects the Law to give life, yet many expect it to govern life. Too few realize that their death on the Cross separated them from the entire principle of law, and that their resurrection u... Read More
