Demonstration 6 (Of Monks)

1. Expedient is the word that I speak and worthy of acceptance:— Let us now awake from our sleep, Romans 13:11 and lift up both our hearts and hands to God towards heaven; lest suddenly the Lord of the house come, that when He comes He may find us in watchfulness. Luke 12:37 Let us observe the appoi... Read More

Prophecy Spiritually Understood - Pt 5 "Two Thousand Years Of Armageddon"

THE COVENANT, THE DRY BONES AND ARMAGEDDON For if they which are of the law be heirs, faith is made void, and the promise made of none effect. (Romans 4:14) Behold, I Paul say unto you, that if ye be circumcised, Christ shall profit you nothing. (Galatians 5:2) The Jew is of the law and circumcision... Read More

"The Dark Night Of Nicodemus" Ch. 3:1-8

It is a doubtful exegesis which teaches that Nicodemus came to Jesus by night because of fear of the Jewish Council (of which he was a member). His interview with Christ took place too early in the ministry of the Saviour for that. John the Baptist was not yet cast into prison. The envy and the enmi... Read More

The mark of the Name.

Gareth EvansMost believers are aware of the 'mark of the beast' and its mystical number 666. Yet very few seem to be aware that whatever Satan is doing in the natural, we can be sure he is imitating something that God is already doing in the spiritual. In the last days he will perform miracles to deceive multit... Read More

Pray for the Spirit

J.W. AlexanderIn order to have mighty and unexampled revival, what we especially need is for the whole Church to be down on its knees before God. Past redemptions should make our cravings great. "I am the Lord thy God, which brought thee out of the land of Egypt; open thy mouth wide, and I will fill it" (Psalm 81... Read More

1 Corinthians 11:2

John ChrysostomNow I praise you that you remember me in all things, and hold fast the traditions, even as I delivered them to you. Having completed the discourse concerning the idol-sacrifices as became him, and having rendered it most perfect in all respects, he proceeds to another thing, which also itself was a ... Read More

Acts 2

John Nelson DarbyTHE COMING OF THE HOLY GHOST. But the great event of which we have spoken now claims our attention - the immense fact of the coming of the Holy Ghost to dwell with the disciples of Jesus, in each, and in the midst of all together. Thus, in 1 Corinthians 3:16, the church as a universal assembly is th... Read More

The Acts of the Apostles - Part 1

John Nelson DarbyActs 1 We shall find that "The Acts" follows Luke's Gospel: it speaks of a "former treatise," which is the Gospel, but it follows it in its tone and character. Is the style of the Greek the same? Yes, there is no question with anyone that it came from Luke's pen. The only thing, and an astonishing t... Read More
