psalm-139:14

The Wine of Astonishment Preached at North Street Chapel, Stamford, on December 21, 1862, by J. C. Philpot "You have showed your people hard things—you have made us to drink the wine of astonishment.

Treasury of David Charles Spurgeon PSALM 140 This Psalm is in its proper place, and so fitly follows Psalm 139 that you might almost read right on, and make no break between the two. Serious injury would follow to the whole Book of Psalms if the order should be interfered with as certain wiseacres p... Read More

The Preciousness of the Soul by Thomas Watson "For what is a man profited if he shall gain the whole world and lose his own soul? Or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?" Matthew 16:26 Every man carries a treasure about with him—a divine soul. And that this jewel should not be undervalued... Read More
