Successful Soul Winning
Address delivered at Missionary Rally, The Moody Church, April 1923 If a soul is to be led to Christ the plan as given to us in the Word of God contemplates that the Spirit of God is going to do something in that heart in preparation for an intelligent decision of Christ. “Nevertheless I tell you the truth; It is expedient for you that I go away: for if I go not away, the Comforter will not come to you; but if I depart, I will send him unto you. And when he is come he will reprove the world” … Read More >

The Christian's Triumph
Sermon delivered by Rev. R.H. Glover, M.D. at The Moody Church, August 1, 1926. “Now thanks be unto God, which always causeth us to triumph in Christ, and maketh manifest the savour of his knowledge by us in every place.” —2 Corinthians 2:14 We are indebted for this beautiful text, as we are for many another in God’s Word, to the circumstances of severe trial out of which it came. These circumstances were, briefly stated, as follows: From Ephesus, Paul had written and sent his first epistle to the Corinthians and later had dispatched Titus in order to learn the … Read More >

The Temptation: The Testing Of The Incarnation
In order to see just what the incarnation is, you must turn to Galatians 4:4–7, “When the fulness of the time was come, God sent forth his Son, made of a woman, made under the law, To redeem them that were under the law, that we might receive the adoption of sons. And because ye are sons, God hath sent forth the Spirit of his Son into your hearts, crying, Abba, Father. Wherefore thou art no more a servant, but a son; and if a son, then an heir of God through Christ,” a joint heir. The Preparation For The … Read More >

The Truth About Holy Living
Holy living in an Unholy World: How can we be holy in a sin-saturated world? “I looked for the church and found it in the world, and I looked for the world and found it in the church.” So said hymn writer Horatius Bonar. Those words resonate with me. We are living at a time when the distinction between the world and the church is blurred; we want to love God, but we are pulled into the orbit of worldly values and an array of temptations. And, quite frankly, we often don’t know where the lines should be drawn. When … Read More >

Canaan Land
God’s plan was to get his people into the land of Canaan. He never wanted them to die in the wilderness and have to come through the Jordan again, which was typical of another water crossing. So many people think that crossing the Jordan is typical of coming into the fulness of the Holy Spirit and forget that there are two types, because the parents came through the Red Sea and the children there in the wilderness had never been through the Red Sea. God had to take them through Jordan. The experience of the fulness of the Holy Spirit … Read More >

The Filling Of The Holy Spirit
“See then that ye walk circumspectly, not as fools, but as wise, redeeming the time, because the days are evil. Wherefore be ye not unwise, but understanding what the will of the Lord is. And be not drunk with wine, wherein is excess; but be filled with the Spirit; speaking to yourselves in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord; giving thanks always for all things unto God and the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ; submitting yourselves one to another in the fear of God.” —Ephesians 5:15–21 … Read More >

Pentecost—And Today
Message preached by Dr. J. Sidlow Baxter at The Moody Church on Sunday, July 5, 1953. When the first preachers of the Gospel went through the Roman Empire, 2000 years ago, they could not sow the seed of Christian truth upon virgin soil. The ground was already full of other growths. Everywhere that those first heralds of the Cross made their way, they found men’s minds full of religious and philosophical ideas; and the famous so-called “Mystery” religions had penetrated into practically every part of the Roman dominion. Some of these old-time religions, in their doctrines of the taurobolium, … 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 >

Are We Ignoring The Holy Ghost?
In searching the Scriptures to ascertain what has been revealed concerning the Holy Spirit and His ministry, we discover a striking vocabulary of phrases and synonymous terms that are both interesting and instructive. We find that out of thirty-nine books in the Old Testament, the Holy Spirit is mentioned in twenty-four of them, at least 84 times. Another remarkable fact in the Old Testament study of this subject which I observed is that the Holy Spirit is not named at all in the books of either Joshua, Jeremiah, or Daniel, but the marks of His presence are there. He wrought … Read More >

In The Inward Part
“Glorify God in your body.” Through the five senses of the body we become conscious of the outside world,—we can say that we know the world in which we live, for this world has made its way to us through these senses, and our great consciousness within cries out, “I know.” Within this body is a soul. The soul has senses also,—I do not know how many; but with these senses it reaches out and knows its kind. For those the soul loves it would sacrifice and sometimes die. The consciousness within the soul rises up and says of the … Read More >
