I had on this particular trip for the last month the opportunity to be with unbelievers more than I normally would be, to be in their presence and to be somewhat disconnected from the normal circle of Christian friends in which I live and move and have my being. And it continued to make me grateful ... Read More

"When I send clouds over the earth, the rainbow will be seen in the clouds" Genesis 9:14 1. SOVEREIGNTY "The Lord Reigns." Psalm 93:1 No rainbow of promise in the "dark and cloudy day" shines more radiantly than this. God, my God, the God who gave Jesus, orders all events, and overrules all for my g... Read More

Concerning the Second Proposition. This word, "I have learned," is a word that imports difficulty; it shows how hardly the apostle came by contentment of mind; it was not bred in nature. St Paul did not come naturally by it, but he had learned it. It cost him many a prayer and tear, it was taught hi... Read More

Use III. A Suasive to Contentment. It exhorts us to labour for contentation; this is that which doth beautify and bespangle a Christian, and as a spiritual embroidery, doth set him off in the eyes of the world. But methinks I hear some bitterly complaining, and saying to me, Alas! how is it possible... Read More

Better than a Mother! Archibald G. Brown, Stepney Green Tabernacle "Can a mother forget her nursing child? Can she feel no love for the child she has borne?
