Built On The Sand Or Built On The Rock?
The Importance of Biblically Faithful Teaching “Why do we even need doctrinal statements? Why don’t we just believe what the Bible teaches?” The person who asked me this question was serious: Just do away with “theology” and teach what the Bible teaches! A wonderful-sounding comment, for sure, but very uninformed and very dangerous. True, we all have the same Bible and claim to worship the same God. But to harmonize the Bible’s teachings about the person of Jesus, the role of the Holy Spirit, and the requirements for personal salvation—these, along with a host of other doctrines, lie at the … Read More >

Answering Biblical Objections
[Clarence] Darrow tried to floor [William Jennings] Bryan in the Dayton Court [during the State of Tennessee v. John Thomas Scopes trial of 1925] with some difficult questions about the Bible. Was the world made in six days?Did a whale swallow Jonah?Where did Cain get his wife?Did the sun stand still for Joshua?How old is man? And many other questions about incidents that have often puzzled Scripture students. Bryan gave brief replies to the lawyer’s questions. Now, Dr. R.A. Torrey, famous Bible scholar, and former New Englander, explains in detail why Fundamentalists like Bryan readily believe … Read More >

Well, What's Next?
“Well, what’s next? This is the expression on every hand today. Politically, socially, commercially, religiously, this question is being asked. Something is underneath all the late world happenings that makes folks ask this question. Well, what is the something? The scenes are certainly being swiftly shifted, and it is causing great wonder about the next act. There has reached the world audience, through the teaching of the Bible, a strong suggestion of what this next act will probably be, and this accounts for their anxiety in watching every move. Jesus answered some men once when they asked Him for a … Read More >

A Falling Away
“For that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first.” —2 Thessalonians 2:3 There are also four or five verses in the eighth chapter of Jeremiah that I want to use as a backbone of the things I wish to say to you. I want to show how we “lose out”; how we “fall away.” I want to talk very tenderly—as tenderly as I know how, by the power of the Holy Spirit, about the grave danger that is surrounding your life—the danger in the day in which we live of your losing the rich things of … Read More >

The Kaiser Said, “Let There Be Darkness”
“So they cast him out of the vineyard.” —Luke 20:15 I suppose that the time has come when most men refuse to say there is no God. Men have gotten far enough in science to know that there is a God. They realize that there is an intelligence running the world, although they do not want to admit that intelligence is the God of the Bible. Now if there is a God, then it is surely true of that God that He is able to enlighten that which He creates. Certainly the sun that brings forth the lily in your … Read More >

The Glory Of The Bible
“For thou hast magnified thy word above all thy name.” —Psalm 138:2 Christians who believe in an inerrant and infallible Bible have sometimes been charged with being worshipers of a book, Bible idolators. Someone has said that as a heathen worships an idol, so we worship the Book. Dr. Marion Burton, president of Michigan University, in his book on our intellectual attitude in an age of criticism, makes this charge that “Protestantism has made a fetich of the Bible.” Now, if God has magnified His Word above all His name, as He has, why should not we honor it and … Read More >

Our Message And Why We Preach It
The following is a synopsis of an address delivered last month at the commencement exercises of the Moody Bible Institute of Chicago by the class speaker representing the graduates of the Pastors’ Course. We are glad to give space to this clear, forceful treatise not only because it is sane and scriptural and the testimony of the author who is one of our most valued active members, but because it is also the testimony of The Moody Church. Some of us are about to enter upon what will be our life work. Whether we go to the people of a … Read More >

What You Might Not Know About The Bible
The Bible is a library of 66 books that is endlessly fascinating. Throughout the centuries it has been read, studied, criticized, dissected, and revered. It has been food for the soul, direction for the confused, and comfort for the suffering. Best of all, it has pointed the way to salvation for helpless sinners seeking forgiveness and fellowship with God. Visit the lands of the bible and you’ll discover that it’s deeply rooted in the soil of history, culture, and political and religious conflict. Archeological findings repeatedly prove the historical reliability of the Bible; hundreds of recent discoveries confirm biblical accounts … Read More >

D.L. Moody Snippets
The Bible Is True Young man! The Bible is true. What have these infidels to give you in its place? What has made England but the open Bible? Every nation that exalteth the Word of God is exalted, and every nation that casteth it down is cast down. Oh, let us cling close to the Bible. Of course we shall not understand it all at once. But men are not to condemn it on that account. Suppose I should send my little boy, five years old, to school tomorrow morning, and when he came home in the afternoon I say … Read More >

The Problem Of The Times And How To Meet It
An address delivered at the Elim Swedish Free Church, Chicago, on Sunday afternoon May 17, 1925. As I keep in mind that I am speaking to young people, I am impressed by the fact that young people of this day and generation have a more difficult time of it as witnesses for Jesus Christ than the young people of any other generation that I have ever known. Impressive Facts Some of you may have read last week the report of the great meeting of chiefs-of-police which was held in the city of New York; and if so, you must have … Read More >
