The Old Is Gone, The New Has Come
Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away; behold, the new has come. 2 Corinthians 5:17 D.L. MOODYI saw an advertisement which read like this: “If you want people to respect you, wear good clothes.” This is the world’s idea of getting the world’s respect. Why! A leper may put on good clothes, but he is a leper still. Mere profession of faith doesn’t transform a man. It is the new nature spoken of in Corinthians, “Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature; old things are … Read More >

Awake And Bright
Awake, O sleeper, and arise from the dead, and Christ will shine on you. Ephesians 5:14 D.L. MOODYIf the lost are to be reached by the gospel of the Son of God, Christianity must be more aggressive than it has been in the past. We have been on the defensive long enough; the time has come for us to enter on a war of aggression. When we as children of God wake up and go to work in the vineyard, then those who are living in wickedness all about us will be reached; but not in any other way. … Read More >

The Fruit Of Friendship With Jesus
But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control; against such things there is no law. Galatians 5:22–23 D.L. MOODYThe fruit of the Spirit begins with love.There are nine graces spoken of, and of these nine, Paul puts love at the head of the list; love is the first thing, the first in that precious cluster of fruit. Someone has said that all the other eight are an outflow from love. Joy is love exulting; peace is love in repose; long suffering is love on trial; gentleness is love in society; … Read More >

Truth, Half-Truths, and Lies
Therefore, having put away falsehood, let each one of you speak the truth with his neighbor, for we are members one of another. Ephesians 4:25 D.L. MOODYWe have got nowadays so that we divide lies into white lies and black lies, society lies, business lies, and so on. The Word of God knows no such letting down of the standard. A lie is a lie, no matter what are the circumstances under which it is uttered, or by whom. I have heard that in Siam, they sew up the mouth of a confirmed liar. I am afraid if that … Read More >

The Fruit of Joy
These things I have spoken to you, that my joy may be in you, and that your joy may be full. John 15:11 D.L. MOODYPeople should look for joy in the Word, and not in the world. They should look for the joy, which the Scriptures furnish, and then go to work in the vineyard, because a joy that doesn’t send me out to someone else, a joy that doesn’t impel me to go and help the poor drunkard, a joy that doesn’t prompt me to visit the widow and the fatherless, a joy that doesn’t cause me to … Read More >

A Dim Light Is Better Than None
Let your light shine before others, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father who is in heaven. Matthew 5:16 D.L. MOODYIf every one of us was illuminated by the Spirit of God, how we could light up the churches! But to have a lantern without any light, would be a nuisance. Many Christians carry along lanterns and say, “I wouldn’t give up my religion for yours.” They talk about religion. The religion that has no fire is like painted fire. These are artificial Christians. Do you belong to that class? You can … Read More >
