We now come to the Book of Deuteronomy, a book full of interest in its moral warnings as to testimony, but presenting fewer subjects for interpretation and exegesis than those, the summary of which we have hitherto sought to give. This book takes up Israel just on the borders of Canaan, and insists ... Read More
One of the most well-known chapters in the entire Bible, Hebrews 11 is known as God’s Hall of Faith. I find this Hall of Faith amazing — as much for who’s not in it as who is. I mean, think who’s missing: Elijah and Elisha, Jehoshaphat and Jeremiah. I would have thought they would have been shoo-ins... Read More
I dare not leave you with your eyes half open, like him who saw 'men as trees walking' [Mark 8:24]. The Word is profitable for doctrine as well as reproof. And therefore, having thus far conducted you by the shelves and rocks of so many dangerous mistakes, I would guide you at length into the haven ... Read More

I say confirmation, rather than revelation as only details of this word are new to Abraham; in particular, the timi... Read More
"Righteousness shall go before Him; and shall set us in the way of His steps." (Psalm 85:13) The Psalm commences with a very precious declaration of the Church's confidence in the God of all grace, and of the good things He has done for His people. This is not peculiar to the Psalmist, or to any por... Read More
A. THE WORD OF GOD 1. Nature of the Word of God (1) As to its voice – The Bible is the voice of God, 2 Tim. 3:16, speaking through men as his own words, Ex. 4:12; Jer. 1:9, as though God himself had uttered these words, Acts 3:21; Ex. 4:15-16 (2) As to its veracity – The word of God is truth, John 1...

Repentance The importance of repentance cannot be over estimated. It is given prominence in Scripture. It involves the whole man, intellectually, emotionally and volitionally. Intellectually it means a complete 'about face' in our thinking. The Greek word literally means 'a change of mind'. We chang... Read More
"Then the eyes of the blind shall be opened, and the ears of the deaf shall be unstopped." –Isaiah 35:5 That these miracles are effected by the power of the gospel is plain from the words that immediately precede, "Behold, your God will come with vengeance, even God with a recompense; he will come a...
