There are many lessons to be learned from a careful study of Luke's account of Paul’s voyage to Rome. Taken literally, it shows us, in a wonderful way, the personal care of the Lord Jesus Christ for His beloved servant in a time of great stress and difficulty. The particular incident recorded in...

We resume the thread of the Gospel narrative at the mission of the twelve Apostles. Jesus must have had a heavy heart when He took His leave of Nazareth. It seemed as if rejection was to be His invariable lot. For His rejection at the hands of the dwellers in Decapolis had been swiftly followed by...

Menno Simons is perhaps the most well known of the early Anabaptists. His life was contemporaneous with John Calvin's. Simons was a converted priest. Educated and fiery, he defended the Anabaptist movement against all detractors. What comes as a surprise to some is that Menno Simons, being...

“By grace are ye saved through faith.” Eph. 2:8. All the blessings which God hath bestowed upon man are of his mere grace, bounty, or favour; his free, undeserved favour; favour altogether undeserved; man having no claim to the least of his mercies. It was free grace that “formed man of...

Under the shadow of a great affliction we assemble in the house of God this day. The trusted colleague, who is now sole pastor, the attached elders, deacons, and members of the flock are bereaved of one whom they loved, and whose lips fed many.

1. La force d’âme, la vertu qui porte le nom de patience, est un bien grand don de la munificence divine, puisqu’on exalte en Dieu même cette patience avec laquelle il attend les méchants jusqu’à ce qu’ils se corrigent. Dieu ne peut souffrir, ne peut pâtir...

It is not claimed that in this little volume all has been said that might be said upon the subject treated. On the contrary, the writer has proceeded upon the belief that the doctrine of the Holy Spirit can be better understood by limiting the sphere of discussion, rather than by extending it to the...

These addresses were delivered in substance at Northfield, and reported stenographically. They were then revised and expanded, and were afterward delivered in my own church. A flood of letters, books, and pamphlets poured in upon me: some from enquirers; some from those who have differed from positions...
