The Rich Man and Lazarus (1)
Many people today do not want to read the words that are written above. They no longer want to hear about the wrath of God, nor do they want to hear about eternal punishment.

The True Vine and the Branches (2)
Spiritual branches of the Lord also are in need of strong trellises. What are these strong trellises? The Word of God is a trellis for His people.

The Only Deliverance for a Soul That Is Bowed Down
The poet of Psalm 42 was experiencing a very difficult time. He felt that the Lord had departed from him, and now there were so many voices, enemy voices, which gave him no rest.

The Life of Samson (5)
The Word of God tells us that children are a blessing of the Lord. Blessed is the man, God's Word says, who may see them as olive plants round about his table. Children also bring with them such a great and awesome responsibility for the parents. In the home a foundation has to be laid for the ch ...
The Revealing of Christ
In the first place, I would like to show you that “the revealing of Christ” is an expression which is biblical. In Galatians 1:15&16, the Apostle Paul writes, “But when it pleased God, who separated me from my mother’s womb, and called me by His grace, to reveal His Son in me, that ...
