Through Trial To Glory
In the sixth Psalm, David deals particularly with the judgments of God and the need of mercy upon the part of the individual saint, for strange as it may seem, paradoxical as it may appear to say it, saints are sinners. What I mean by that is that though every believer in the Lord Jesus Christ has been sanctified in the sense that he is set apart to God in all the value of the finished work and the atoning blood of the Lord Jesus Christ and therefore he is perfected forever in His sight, yet the fact remains that … Read More >

Healing The Body
Part 1 of 3 from The Moody Church Herald, August 1, 1910. “And said, If thou wilt diligently hearken to the voice of the LORD thy God, and wilt do that which is right in his sight, and wilt give ear to his commandments, and keep all his statutes, I will put none of these diseases upon thee, which I have brought upon the Egyptians: for I am the LORD that healeth thee.” —Exodus 15:26 “Is any among you afflicted? let him pray. Is any merry? let him sing psalms. Is any sick among you? let him call for the … Read More >

The Foe On The Inside
You will know if you are at all familiar with your Bible that in the conquest of Canaan, Joshua had to meet and defeat thirty-one different kings. These were rulers over petty kingdoms. The Canaan experience of the children of Israel represents the deepest and best spiritual experience, typically speaking. We may consider these thirty-one kings as representing the different foes which we must meet and triumph over if we are to apprehend that for which we have been apprehended. God has called you and me not simply that He might take us to heaven, but that a certain purpose … Read More >

Broken Fellowship
“Jesus tarried behind in Jerusalem; and Joseph and his mother knew not of it...supposing him to have been in the company, went a day’s journey.” —Luke 2:43–44 This is a precious portion of Scripture, if for no other reason than that it furnishes the only bit of authentic information concerning the life of Jesus from his infancy to the beginning of His ministry. Sometimes we refer to “the eighteen silent years” of His life, but as a matter of fact, apart from the record of this one event, there are thirty silent years. Probably all of us have been more … Read More >

The Unchanging Christ
“Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and today, and forever.” —Hebrews 13:8 The verse which precedes our text reads: “Remember them which have the rule over you, who have spoken unto you the word of God: whose faith follow, considering the end of their conversation.” Then comes this sentence: “Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and today, and forever.” He is the end of all their conversation. This word “conversation” takes in two great principles, the idea of talking and the thought of what folks are. This is the consummation of the living of those who have preached the Gospel; this is … Read More >

Your Kingdom Come
“Your kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven.”—Matthew 6:10 This sin-riddled world is not as it should be. There is pain, heartache, and brokenness everywhere. Just turn on the news. That’s why this phrase in the Lord’s Prayer resonates with me so deeply. We long for things to be made right “on earth as it is in heaven.” Don’t you yearn for God to mend all that’s been broken? Jesus knows what it’s like to live in this broken-down world. And He knows how to pray His way through the heartache as well. In … Read More >

God In The Hands Of A Man
“And the LORD repented of the evil which he thought to do unto his people.” —Exodus 32:14 This is a wonderful story, “God in the Hands of a Man.” The narrative which I have just read declares the theme, and Scripture proves the statement—God in the hands of Moses. Though he had committed murder before he left Egypt, and was impatient at times; for all that, Moses was God’s chosen man, and after forty years on the backside of the desert he came forth as God’s trained man. I have no doubt but what that “brush-college” experience was necessary. He … Read More >

The Possibilities Of Faith
(Sermon preached in The Moody Church, July 3, 1914. Not corrected by the author). We have been dealing with the possibilities of faith. We have seen how faith enables us to enter into fellowship with our Lord so that the soul of man becomes conjoined to Christ in the effort to win men for God. We never shall get to the end of that subject, of what it means for a man to stand up and speak to his fellow men knowing he is absolutely incompetent, but realizing all the time he is speaking that his Confederate, his Colleague, his … Read More >

Christians And Amusements
“Giving no offense in anything, that the ministry be not blamed.” —2 Corinthians 6:3 “Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him.” —1 John 2:15 Not a few Christians have been‚ and some are—greatly perplexed as to what should be the attitude of a Christian toward the world and its amusements. There are some Scriptures that tell us very definitely that the Christian is not of the world, that he has been chosen out of the world, that he is separated … Read More >

Loving Kindness And Tender Mercies
“And Ahab told Jezebel all that Elijah had done, and withal how he had slain all the prophets with the sword. Then Jezebel sent a messenger unto Elijah, saying, So let the gods do to me, and more also, if I make not thy life as the life of one of them by tomorrow about this time. And when he saw that, he arose, and went for his life, and came to Beer-sheba, which belongeth to Judah, and left his servant there. But he himself went a day’s journey into the wilderness, and came and sat down under a juniper … Read More >
