Psalm 119:71-76 71 It is good for me that I have been afflicted; that I might learn thy statutes. 72 The law of thy mouth is better unto me than thousands of gold and silver. 73 Thy hands have made me and fashioned me: give me understanding, that I may learn thy commandments. 74 They that fear thee will be glad when they see me; because I have hoped in thy word. 75 I know, O Lord, that thy judgments are right, and that thou in faithfulness hast afflicted me. 76 Let, I pray thee, thy merciful kindness be for …

                       “Not that I speak in respect of want: for I have learned, in whatsoever state I am, therein to be content. I know how to be abased, and I know how to abound: in everything and in all things have I learned the secret both to be filled and to be hungry, both to abound and to be in want. I can do all things in him that  strengtheneth me” (Philippians 4:11-13).     If there is one statement in Scripture that finds us out, it is this one. …

QUESTION: “If I believe in Jesus Christ do I become a Jew? I have been told that if I believe in Jesus Christ I become a spiritual Jew and am a part of Israel. Is this true?” ANSWER: This is an excellent question, and it goes to the heart of an issue that has for too long created a lot of unnecessary conflict in the body of Christ. How we answer this goes to the root of our understanding how natural law and spiritual law merge together. First, we must remember that all humans originated from one man, Adam (Acts …

    Now Jehovah God turns from focusing on the sins of the Jews exiled to Babylon and refers again to the future when Israel will be gathered together from the four corners of the earth. Now however He is advancing the time on the world chronology to the second time that He will gather them (Isaiah 11:11-12) after the Tribulation which is discussed in chapters six through nineteen in the book of Revelation. Other passages add clarity to the concept of holy mountain, in the mountain of the height of Israel; the house of Israel. Because of the extent …

                                                                      He hath said . . . so that we may boldly say . . . — Hebrews 13:5-6   My say-so is to be built on God’s say-so. God says – “I will never leave thee,” then I can with good courage say – “The Lord is my helper, I will not fear – ” I will not be haunted by apprehension. This does not mean …

Reading: Matt. 16:13-25; Luke 22:31-34( below). “Blessed art thou, Simon… My Father (hath revealed it unto thee)” (Matt. 16:17). “He… said unto Peter, Get thee behind Me, Satan” (Matt. 16:23). “Simon… Satan asked to have you… but I made supplication for thee” (Luke 22:31-32; A.S.V.).   We have before us the spiritual history in the making of a servant of God, and this can be seen in the representative and very human case of Simon Peter. The thing which comes out of the passages above is the fact that, in the life of one who stands related vitally to the …

  The distinguishing mark of a Christian is his confidence in the love of Christ, and the yielding of his affections to Christ in return. First, faith sets her seal upon the man by enabling the soul to say with the apostle, “Christ loved me and gave himself for me.” Then love gives the countersign, and stamps upon the heart gratitude and love to Jesus in return. “We love him because he first loved us.” In those grand old ages, which are the heroic period of the Christian religion, this double mark was clearly to be seen in all believers …

1 Samuel 17:40-47 40 He picked up five smooth stones from a stream and put them into his shepherd’s bag. Then, armed only with his shepherd’s staff and sling, he started across the valley to fight the Philistine. 41 Goliath walked out toward David with his shield bearer ahead of him, 42 sneering in contempt at this ruddy-faced boy. 43 “Am I a dog,” he roared at David, “that you come at me with a stick?” And he cursed David by the names of his gods. 44 “Come over here, and I’ll give your flesh to the birds and wild …

  It is no small thing to be involved in the testimony of God’s glory. We should not make a virtue of smallness, as though there were something important about being despised by others, but at the same time we shall find that whenever God has called people to display His glory, He has chosen those who have no glory in themselves. God has always been obliged to strip His instruments of their own glory. A Moses, full of Egypt’s sufficiency, must go for forty years to the backside of the desert to be emptied out and made to confess …

                                                 Though times seem trying, those who believe in Christ have an unshakeable dwelling place.   Hebrews 12:25-29(KJV) 25 See that ye refuse not him that speaketh. For if they escaped not who refused him that spake on earth, much more shall not we escape, if we turn away from him that speaketh from heaven: 26 Whose voice then shook the earth: but now he hath promised, saying, Yet once more I shake not the earth only, …

    We have seen our well-beloved Lord in the days of his flesh, humiliated and sore vexed; for he was “despised and rejected of men, a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief.” He whose brightness is as the morning, wore the sackcloth of sorrow as his daily dress: shame was his mantle, and reproach was his vesture. Yet now, inasmuch as he has triumphed over all the powers of darkness upon the bloody tree, our faith beholds our King returning with dyed garments from Edom, robed in the splendour of victory. How glorious must he have been in …
