“Just as man is appointed to die once, and after that to face judgment, so also Christ was offered once to bear the sins of many; and He will appear a second time, not to bear sin, but to bring salvation to those who eagerly await Him.”– Hebrews 9:27&28 “How shall we escape if we […]

“The true Christian is the only happy man, because he has sources of happiness entirely independent of this world. He has something which cannot be affected by sickness and by deaths, by private losses and by public calamities — the ‘peace of God, which passes all understanding.’ He has a certainty laid up for him

“This man receiveth sinners.”Luke 15:2 Observe the condescension of this fact. This Man, who towers above all other men, holy, harmless, undefiled, and separate from sinners–this Man receiveth sinners. This Man, who is no other than the eternal God, before whom angels veil their faces–this Man receiveth sinners. It needs an angel’s tongue to describe

“If we had to preach to thousands year after year, and never rescued but one soul, that one soul would be a full reward for all our labour, for a soul is of countless price.” (C.H. Spurgeon)

“But what things were gain to me, these I have counted loss for Christ. Yet indeed I also count all things loss for the excellence of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord, for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and count them as rubbish, that I may gain Christ … “(Philippians 3:7&8)

“A man’s heart plans his way, but the LORD directs his steps”(Proverbs 16:9) “… Remember, too, that everything that happens to believers is working for their present and lasting good. “We know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.” If

We demolish arguments and every pretension that sets itself up against the knowledge of God, and we take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ”– 2nd Corinthians 10:5 “The Word of God is the anvil upon which the opinions of men are smashed”(C H Spurgeon)

(John’s Gospel 20:27)Thomas was absent when Jesus revealed Himself for the first time after His resurrection to the disciples. When these disciples met Thomas later, he refused to believe in their claims that Jesus had risen from the dead. The Old Testament scriptures, the words of Jesus and the eye witness of his colleagues were

“And they parted his raiment, and cast lots.” And the people stood beholding. And the rulers also with them derided him, saying, He saved others; let him save himself, if he be Christ, the chosen of God. And the soldiers also mocked him…” “And he said unto Jesus, Lord, remember me when thou comest into

“You search the Scriptures, for in them you think you have eternal life; and these are they which testify of Me. But you are not willing to come to Me that you may have life.”(Jesus Christ’s words from John’s Gospel 5:39 & 40) “There is a world of difference between knowing the Word of God and knowing

“If you say to me, “Is it fair that the sin of Adam should be imputed unto me?” I will reply by asking, “Is it fair that the righteousness of Christ should be imputed to you?”(Martin Lloyd-Jones)

”And when he had spoken these things, while they beheld, he was taken up; and a cloud received him out of their sight. And while they looked steadfastly toward heaven as he went up, behold, two men stood by them in white apparel; Which also said, Ye men of Galilee, why stand ye gazing up into heaven?

“God’s grace is so vast, so overwhelming, that nobody can ever grasp it or understand it, The higher a man thinks of himself, the less he appreciates the grace of God. No matter how much sin a man has done, grace abounds to that man. We should cease to strive understanding it, but instead stand

“We are hastening fast through time. Time is short, and eternity, with all its solemn realities, is before us. What is our life? How uncertain! and yet is it not awfully true that poor wretched man rushes heedlessly on, thoughtless of what awaits him in an endless eternity? We are traveling fast through this wilderness

“All this is from God, who reconciled us to himself through Christ and gave us the ministry of reconciliation … We are therefore Christ’s ambassadors, as though God were making his appeal through us. We implore you on Christ’s behalf: Be reconciled to God”(2nd Corinthians 5:18 & 20) I love the simplicity of these verses;

(Job 19:26)Mark the subject of Job’s devout anticipation “I shall see God.” He does not say, “I shall see the saints”- though doubtless that will be untold felicity -but, “I shall see God.” It is not “I shall see the pearly gates, I shall behold the walls of jasper, I shall gaze upon the crowns

“The glory of the Lord shall be revealed, and all flesh shall see it together.”Isaiah 40:5 We anticipate the happy day when the whole world shall be converted to Christ; when the gods of the heathen shall be cast to the moles and the bats; when Romanism shall be exploded, and the crescent of Mohammed

“So shall we ever be with the LORD”   (1 Thessalonians 4:17). While we are here the LORD is with us, and when we are called away we are with Him. There is no dividing the saint from His Savior. They are one, and they always must be one: Jesus cannot be without His own people, for

Without doubt it is pretty cool that man has the abilities to rocket UP into the stratosphere above Earth, set up a “space station”, and remain there for such long periods, like our fellow Brit Tim Peake did in 2016. Also, to safely land exploration craft on Mars and photograph other planets etc. However, by

(Isaiah 36:5)Reader, this is an important question. Listen to the Christian’s answer, and see if it is yours. “On whom dost thou trust?” “I trust,” says the Christian, “in a triune God. I trust the Father, believing that he has chosen me from before the foundations of the world; I trust him to provide for
