john-16:33

Romans 1:4 (1 Corinthians 15:1,12-22,45; 2 Corinthians 5:14-18). "Declared to be the Son of God with power by the resurrection from the dead." The word 'declared' or 'designated' there is the verb horizo, i.e., "horizoned the Son by resurrection". In resurrection Christ is declared or made the horiz... Read More

READING: Hebrews 11:10; Ezekiel 5:5. Our object is to see that because Jerusalem is so closely related to God, indeed has been brought into being by Him, her values must be pre-eminently spiritual and divine. Back of her history there lie those elements which are not of this world, nor are they mere... Read More

Reading: 2 Kings 2:19-22; Acts 1, 2; Mark 9:50. When the above passages are read together it will be seen that they are bound by a common tie; namely, salt, and what it signifies.

Reading: John 16:1 - 17:26 I want you just to pass your eye over that prayer again - "He said, Father... O Father... I come to thee. Holy Father, keep them...

A world of tribulation confronted Him and a world of tribulation confronts His church. "Ye shall have tribulation" and we do, but in Him we ha... Read More

THE ENIGMA OF CREATION is the lofty theme in the Prologue to the Gospel of John. Everywhere this Gospel is transcendental. It deals with matters which transcend all that is earthly, and plunges always into the eternal, and the meaning behind all meanings. The drama of God's life is being worked out.... Read More

"In me . . . peace" (John 16:33). There is a vast difference between happiness and blessedness. Paul had imprisonments and pains, sacrifice and suffering up to the very limit; but in the midst of it all, he was blessed. All the beatitudes came into his heart and life in the midst of those very condi... Read More

They are not of the world, even as I am not of the world. He is despised and rejected of men; a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief. — In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world. Such an high priest became us, who is holy, harmless, undefiled, separ... Read More

Patient in tribulation. It is the Lord: let him do what seemeth him good. — Whom, though I were righteous, yet would I not answer, but I would make supplication to my judge. — The Lord gave, and the Lord hath taken away; blessed be the name of the Lord. — What? shall we receive good at the hand of G...
