O LORD, Pardon Chris Cunningham For thy name’s sake, O LORD, pardon mine iniquity; for it is great. (Psalm 25:11) The fact that David’s sin was great might seem a strange argument to set forth to God as a reason for forgiving it. It might seem more properly a reason not to forgive it. Certainly […]
Forgiven, Covered, Not Imputed ‘Even as David also describeth the blessedness of the man, unto whom God imputeth righteousness without works, Saying, Blessed are they whose iniquities are forgiven, and whose sins are covered. Blessed is the man to whom the Lord will not impute sin’(Rom 4:6-8). Paul does not say that David said, ‘blessed […]

No Condemnation No condemnation? Here we are, unable to do even the good, that, because of the new birth, we desire to do. The new nature desiring to refrain from sin, not wanting to dishonour our Lord, and yet so wicked that we cannot help but commit the vilest evil with our hearts, hands and […]
I believe And Philip said, If thou believest with all thine heart, thou mayest. And he answered and said, I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God. Acts 8:37 Perhaps you have thought, “this is not a very thorough confession, surely you must believe more than this, in order to be saved.” No, this […]
I can spend the rest of my life attacking, one at a time, every heretic who ever lied on God, by pointing out all the wrong things they say, and for every one I denounce, there will be a thousand more I will never have time to address. Or, I can just declare the truth […]
