Echoes of Eternity
Eternity! What a word! Who can measure the height, the depth, the length, and the breadth of such a thought? It is fathomless, it is infinite, it is unsearchable as God Himself, and past finding out. Yet eternity surely lies before us all. Let us pause here, dear reader, and... Read more →
Jesus Christ, Son of God, Saviour
You see the symbol of the fish all the time on cars, lapel pins, jewelry, etc. What does the fish represent? Because of the intense persecution early believers faced, when two complete strangers met they would be hesitant to reveal their faith. After a few minutes of conversation, one of... Read more →
Eternal Life
What It's Not Eternal life is frequently confounded with eternal existence and immortality, but it is not either of these. All people will eternally exist, but not all have eternal life, because that is God's gift to believers only (John 3:36). Unbelievers "shall not see life," yet they will exist,... Read more →
No Other Saviour
"I've got my own religion." "Whatever you believe is alright." "Everybody has their own beliefs." "Just so you believe something." These are sayings which you will hear from many people today. They sound nice, and help to make people feel good, since their own beliefs are said to be as... Read more →
Eternal Prosperity
Psalm 73 gives clear light on some of the deepest questions which meet mankind. It gives us the key to the present and future of the righteous and the wicked—of the man of faith and the man of unbelief. The notion of "do good and you will prosper" is challenged... Read more →
No Saviour!
Many years ago a striking card was published with the title, "If Christ Had Not Come." It told of a preacher falling into a short sleep in his study on Christmas morning and dreaming of a world into which Jesus had never come. In his dream he found himself looking... Read more →
Eternal Things
Many things are described in the Bible as being eternal or everlasting. Here are some of them. "The eternal God is thy refuge, and underneath are the everlasting arms." Deuteronomy 33:27 "His mercy is everlasting." Psalm 100:5 "Thy righteousness is an everlasting righteousness." Psalm 119:142 "In the Lord Jehovah is... Read more →
The Personal Saviour
There is a special blessing in the Christmas message which is frequently missed by many. The birth of Jesus is not simply an interesting fact of history wholly unrelated to your present life … but rather it has a direct bearing upon it. When the angel announced the birth of... Read more →
Eternity
Few words in the language are as hard to comprehend as this synonym for forever-ness. To feel its frustrating elusiveness, just think back to the time before the world was made, then back to that period before even the angels were created, back to the time when there was nothing... Read more →
The New "I"
"I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave Himself for me" (Galatians 2:20). Sins Taken Away, Life... Read more →
The Saviour's Gift
SALVATION means to be rescued from sin and its punishment and set free to know, love, and serve God. Jesus said, "Verily, verily, I say unto you, Whosoever committeth sin is the servant of sin…. If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed" (John 8:34,36).... Read more →
Eternity Now
Eternity is a difficult thing to think of. It not only boggles the mind, but it also brings uncertainty and fear to many who ponder it. It is our aim with this little paper to bring eternity before you now, so that you may better understand it and be prepared... Read more →
The Secret of Victory
There are certain truths we accept as soon as we trust Christ; however, many of them must be made good in us through later experience. Every converted person, for example, is ready enough to acknowledge his own inherent badness, but it is only after long and fruitless struggles to be... Read more →
The Saviour's Purpose
No child of God can visit Calvary too frequently; and in these days of coldness and carelessness and marked indifference, there is a tremendous need that we should journey often in our thoughts to Calvary and be reminded of the purpose of our Saviour in going there. You and I... Read more →
The Two Natures
"That which is born of the flesh is flesh, and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit" (John 3:6); "The flesh lusteth against the spirit, and the spirit against the flesh; and these are contrary the one to the other" (Galatians 5:17). These and similar passages clearly show... Read more →
