The Divine and Human Nature of Christ

Better Than Bethlehem

Christmas is God Shining In

J. Vernon McGeeThe first time that Christ came to this earth was not two thousand years ago at Bethlehem, but some six thousand years ago in the Garden of Eden.

Hope runs high in the inspired pages; it is not a superior form of pious wishful thinking but hope based solidly upon the character and purpose of God Himself. But for us, during the last fifty years particula... Read More

Be Zealous

J.C. Ryle"It is always good to be zealous in a good cause." (Galatians 4:18) There is a subject before your eyes of vast importance. I mean the subject of religious zeal.
