As God’s love is without a cause, so it is without beginning. “The love of God which is in Christ” is not of yesterday. It did not begin in time. It bears the date of eternity upon it. He declares, “I have loved thee with an everlasting love” (Jer. 31). Try to realize this, if you can – As God the Father…

2 Corinthians 2:14-16 The apostle gave thanks unto God because as he preached Christ, God always made him to triumph and made manifest the savor (spread abroad the knowledge of Christ) as the savor of a sacrifice. This savor is unto God a sweet savor of Christ in them that are saved. The preaching of Christ is a savor of life…

Therefore we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God is beseeching through us. We implore on behalf of Christ: Be reconciled to God. (2 Corinthians 5:20) We preachers need to listen to our own sermons often and determine whether or not we are doing what we were sent to do! Are we being, as Paul said, “ambassadors for Christ?” Paul also said,…
Every soul has a beloved; something or someone in which to glory, rejoice, and enjoy. To a believer, CHRIST is his beloved! He worships, loves, rejoices, and glories in the Lord Jesus above all things. Christ is my Beloved and I am His. Christ; His fellowship, His love, and His approval, are preferred above people, possessions, pleasures, or pursuits. Could One so…
Have we not all in our various ways, set up some beloved idol—something which engaged our affections, something which occupied our thoughts, something to which we devoted all the energies of our minds, something for which we were willing to labor night and day? Be it money, be it power, be it esteem of men, be it respectability, be it worldly comfort,…
From whence this fear and unbelief?Hast Thou, O Father, put to griefAnd will the righteous Judge of menWhich, Lord, was laid on Thee?If Thou hast my discharge procured,And freely in my place enduredThe whole of wrath Divine;Payment God cannot twice demandFirst at my bleeding Surety’s hand,And then again at mine.Complete atonement Thou hast made,And to the utmost farthing paid,What e’er Thy people…
And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me (2 Corinthians 12:9). 1. Oppressed with unbelief and sin, Fightings without, and fears within; While earth and hell, with force combined, Assault and terrify my…
A sov’reign Protector I have,unseen, yet forever at hand,unchangeably faithful to save,almighty to rule and command. He smiles, and my comforts abound;His grace as the dew shall descend;and walls of salvation surroundthe soul He delights to defend. Inspirer and hearer of pray’r,Thou Shepherd and Guardian of Thine,my all to Thy covenant careI sleeping and waking resign. If Thou art my Shield and…
“Having made known unto us the mystery of His will…” Ephesians 1:9a The will of God in times past was hidden in many types and shadows, but now God has declared to us the “mystery of His will.” Let us see what Paul is speaking of by asking a few questions concerning the will of God: 1. What is the object of the will…
