Luxuriating forever! (from Winslow’s, “The Glory of Christ in Heaven”) Beloved, the Lord Jesus intends that His people shall be near unto Him in heaven. His satisfaction of soul will not be complete until He clusters around Him in glory all for whom His soul travailed in suffering on earth. Nothing shall separate Him from […]
Because of Who God is, and His precious Gospel, we can pray for those we love, knowing that He is able to bind up the brokenhearted, open the eyes of the blind, and that He delighteth to show mercy. We pray for those who are sad, to Him Who keeps the tears of His loved […]
The most delightful doctrine! by Spurgeon I am sure there is no more delightful doctrine to a Christian, than that of CHRIST’S ABSOLUTE SOVEREIGNTY!

“Where Is He?” John 7:11 Everyone knew that the Lord Jesus would be at Jerusalem during the feast of tabernacles. The whole city seems to have been buzzing with this question.

God must save us before we will desire to be saved. God must give light before we know we were in darkness, God must give life before we will know that we were dead. God must do everything in our salvation. ~John Chapman (Spring Lake Nth Carolina) “And there shall be no […]
Here we see what is in every human heart by nature! (Don Fortner) Pilate saith unto them, What shall I do then with Jesus which is called Christ? They all say unto him, Let him be crucified. Matthew 27:22 Oh, what a revelation of man the cross is! Man hating God, and hating Him most when God […]
People of God. We can plan and arrange our worship services perfectly according to Scripture, sing just the right songs, pray fervently and Scripturally and even deliver a well studied, God honoring message from the Word of God, but we cannot worship unless the Lord Himself graces our presence with His, and blesses us to […]
“IN CHRIST we have no curse from the law. IN CHRIST we have no covenant with the law. IN CHRIST we have no constraint by the law. IN CHRIST we have no commitment to the law. We are saved by grace. We are justified by grace. We are sanctified by grace. We are kept and […]
