GRACE AND TRUTH CAME BY JESUS CHRIST Grace and truth are fitly and inseparably joined together. We cannot have grace without truth, nor truth without grace. Those who reject grace, reject truth; and those who reject truth, reject grace. “Grace reigns through righteousness unto eternal life by Jesus Christ our Lord” (Rom. 5:2l). The grace […]
A BELIEVER’S PEACE Where does a believer find real and genuine peace? On what foundation can we rest and say in truth, “It is well with my soul?” I’ll tell you; it lies in this, that we are justified by faith and not by works. Christ Jesus stood in my place before God. I was […]

Anyone who is serious about a knowledge of and relationship with the living God ought to question today’s religion which makes salvation only a profession and not an experience; which operates only in a person’s mind and not upon his heart; which obligates God but does not glorify God; which designates Jesus Christ as Saviour […]
If you wish to know if the gospel you are hearing preached is the Gospel of God, ask yourself this question, “Who gets the glory?” If you wish to know whether your religious experience is of the flesh or of the Lord, ask yourself the same thing, “Who gets the glory?” Also, examine all your […]
Hosea-type of Christ Hosea 1-3 The name ‘Hosea’ is the same with Joshua and Jesus and signified a saviour or a deliverer. Hosea was not only a faithful prophet and servant of the Lord, but he is a powerful type and picture of our Lord Jesus in his love and mercy to sinners. It is […]
Sovereign grace is God’s grace. And God’s grace is Sovereign grace. If it is not Sovereign grace, it is not saving grace. Sovereign grace is the truth.
