Set to His Seal That God Is True John 3:31–36 When we come to John chapter 3, we find ourselves standing beside two men whose ministries could not be more different in scope, yet perfectly united in purpose: Jesus Christ, the eternal Son of God, and John

The Creature of Romans 8 An Exposition on the Warfare Between Flesh and Spirit The apostle Paul, in Romans chapters seven and eight, unfolds the continual warfare experienced by every child of grace. Beginning in chapter seven and moving into chapter

Of Him, Through Him, and To Him: The Glory of God in All Things There is a phrase commonly heard among professing Christians: “I hope God gets the glory.” Closely related is another statement: “That doesn’t glorify God.” These expressions are often spoken

If we truly embrace the plain declarations of Scripture, we must acknowledge these foundational truths: “It is God who worketh in you both to will and to do of his good pleasure” (Philippians 2:13, KJV). “Apart from me ye can do nothing” (John 15:5,

Dearest Brethren, Praise be to God, who is not hindered by man’s work or lack of work, for the gospel—and the salvation it proclaims—does not come in the wisdom and effort of man but in the power of God, whose Spirit alone can teach truth and give

Does a child of grace walk in good works? Absolutely!!! God's eternal predestination is toward that very thing. Scriptures say that before the foundation of the world, He had ordained his children "UNTO GOOD WORKS" and you can trust his promise that they

If the brethren have a mind to read, I have been given some thoughts as we enter into this new year. While they are not to be compared or taken as truth, unless they, by examination, are found to be align with THE TRUTH, I pray they convey the truth of

"I will be surety for him: If I bring him not unto thee, and set him before thee, then let me bear the blame forever" - Gen 43:9 Judah made a pledge to be Benjamin's surety. To make the guarantee that he would bring the beloved son back to the father.

My friends, my goal is not to make God look bad or even good, he is who he is. My goal is to worship and preach him as he has revealed himself, even if that means I have to put down my presuppositions, feelings, philosophy, and favorite writers and

Zephaniah 1:7 (KJV) "Hold thy peace in the presence of the Lord God: for the day of the Lord is at hand: for the Lord hath prepared a sacrifice, he hath BID his guests." When reading through these passages, the Lord directed me to this one part in

Genesis 6:8 But Noah found GRACE in the eyes of the Lord. While Noah was said to be an upright man, and a preacher of righteousness, he still was a sinner deserving of destruction. What was the difference that led to his salvation? He "found grace in the

Isaiah 50:5-7 The Lord God hath opened my ear, and I was not rebellious, neither turned away back. I gave my back to the smiters, and my cheeks to them that plucked off the hair: I hid not my face from shame and spitting. For the Lord God will help me;

A few years ago, I heard Voddie Baucham, a prominent internet, and Sermon Audio “Sovereign Grace” preacher, commenting about the anniversary of his many years of ministry at the local church he pastors, make this statement:  "The eternal destinies of

The whole of the gospel, its fullest and only truth is: THE LORD ALONE OUR RIGHTEOUSNESS. Brethren, one thing I believe the Lord has taught me in my 51 years on this earth, is that our obedience and righteousness will always be imperfect, for all our

In our English language, we have what we call a "quantifier". This is a word or phrase that expresses a specific quantity. For instance, if I said "the ones hired as janitors, cleaned. So the phrase "the ones hired as janitors" quantified who "cleaned."

1 Peter 1:23 (KJV) Being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the word of God, which liveth and abideth forever. Does the phrase "word of God" here refer to the Bible? I do believe that the Scriptures will abide forever because it

Job 1:20-22 Then Job arose, and rent his mantle, and shaved his head, and fell down upon the ground, AND WORSHIPPED, And said, Naked came I out of my mother's womb, and naked shall I return thither: THE LORD GAVE and THE LORD HATH TAKEN AWAY; blessed be

We often use the term “omniscience” when referring to an attribute of God, wherein He has ”all knowledge” or “knowledge of everything.” We also would define “omnipotence” as God having “all power” or being “most powerful.” Many will not dispute this fact.

Matthew 1:21 And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS: for he shall save his people from their sins. Jesus saved, past tense. Jesus did not make a way to “get” saved, nor did he leave salvation contingent upon HIS people to

Job 23:13-14 But he is in one mind, and who can turn him? and what his soul desireth, even that he doeth. 14 For he performeth the thing that is appointed for me: and many such things are with him. Praise God!!!  Salvation, or any other thing for that

Hebrews 10:8-10 Above when he said, Sacrifice and offering and burnt offerings and offering for sin thou wouldest not, neither hadst pleasure therein; which are offered by the law; Then said he, Lo, I come to do thy will, O God. He TAKETH AWAY the FIRST,

Psalms 110:3 Thy people shall be willing in the day of thy power Walk the aisle of most "Christian" book stores and you will find row after row of books on self-help. Whether it be "How to be Born Again," "10 Steps to Christian Maturity," or "Your Best

It's amazing how selfishly, arrogantly, and ignorantly, we who profess faith in the Sovereign Lord Jesus Christ complain. If we believe HE is in control of ALL things, and if HE be ALL wise, then when HE takes us through affliction, shall we cry "not fair
