41.) Provision For Rough Roads
      "Thy shoes shall be iron and brass, and as thy days so shall thy strength be." Deut. 33:25 The wise man tells us in Ecclesiastes, "Say not thou what is the cause that the former days were better than these, for thou dost not inquire wisely concerning this." We are living in the best days the world ever saw, -- "in an age on ages te ...read more

42.) Salvation
      IS GOD HERE? A young man had been extremely profane and thought little of the matter. After his marriage to a high-minded, lovely wife, the habit appeared to him in a different light, and he made spasmodic efforts to conquer it. But not until a few months ago did he become victor, when the glowing evil was set before him, by a little incident, in ...read more

43.) Saving Souls From Death
      "The soul that sinneth it shall die." "Turn ye, turn ye; for why will ye die?' "As I live, saith the Lord, I have no pleasure in the death of him that dieth, but would rather that all men should turn unto Me and live." "Look unto Me and be ye saved, for I am God, and there is none else." "Whosoever believeth shall not perish, but h ...read more

44.) Sons of God
      I John 3:2 -- "Now are we the sons of God." When Jesus was initiated into the priesthood " there came a voice from heaven saying, "This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased." If we read the third chapter of Luke, where the genealogy of Jesus is recorded, we find it begins, "And Jesus Himself began to be about thirty years of age," ...read more

45.) Soul Saving
      MODERN PREACHING The law of God and His wrath against sin, the sanctions of the law, the eternal punishment of the finally impenitent, are not so plainly, boldly and earnestly preached as formerly. The law is still the school master, or child-leader to bring men to Christ. Where the law is not preached, through deference to long-pursed, impeniten ...read more

46.) Spiritual Gymnastics
      "Exercise thyself unto godliness, for godliness is profitable unto all things, having the promise of the life that now is and of that which is to come." I Tim. 4:7, 8 The author of our text was a spiritual athlete. He was fully determined, by all the means in his power, to be at his very best for God. Others might put themselves in traini ...read more

47.) The Awful Void
      "God is departed from me, and answereth me not." I Sam. 28:15 Some years ago I officiated at the funeral of a man who committed suicide. He took a rope about three feet long, deliberately attached it to a rafter overhead, kicked a block away from beneath his feet, and thus put out the spark of life -- sent himself into eternity. Surely th ...read more

48.) The Cross of Christ
      Gal. 6:14 -- "God forbid that I should glory, save in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ" Christianity without the cross of Christ is a misnomer. Christianity without Christ is a farce. The symbol of Christianity is the cross. Men recognize this in various ways -- some by putting the cross on church steeples, others by wearing it on a watch cha ...read more

49.) The Damnation Army, Its Victims And Its Sponsors
      "And the drinking was according to the law." Esther 1:8 "Woe unto him that giveth his neighbor drink; that puttest thy bottle to him, and makest him drunken." Hab. 2:15 I purpose taking to you tonight as an ambassador of the Lord Jesus Christ; as a minister of the Christian religion; as a citizen interested in the welfare of all ...read more

50.) The Day Of Judgment
      "And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books were opened; and another book was opened; which is the book of life, and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works. And the sea gave up the dead which were in it; and death and Hell delivered up the dead which were in them ...read more

51.) The Discipline of Suffering
      John 17:19 -- "For their sakes." Know a blue-eyed, curly-headed little fellow, about two years of age, who can talk quite glibly, and if you will tell him to do something he will at once say, "Why?" If you tell him you are going down to the city he will say, "Why?" If you propose to do something, he will say, "Why?" His mother and some ot ...read more

52.) The Gospel
      DON'T BE A DUCK In a famous ecclesiastical trial in Virginia, a number of years ago, it was said by someone that the preaching of the party on trial "had no more effect than pouring water on a duck's back." Quick as a flash the reply came, "Is that the fault of the water, or the duck?" There is food for thought in that home thrust; and so l ...read more

53.) The Life Abundant
      John 10:10 -- "I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly." There is a wonderful fullness in the Word of God, and oftentimes, as we read, our hearts are touched by the abundant promises, and the provision made for the human race, if they will but accept of it. If we do not see this provision when we read we ...read more

54.) The Manliness of the Man
      "A minister according to the gift of the grace of God." "A minister according to the dispensation of God." "Christ Jesus our Lord, who hath enabled me. "I have appeared unto thee to make thee a witness." "Unto me, who am less than the least of all saints, is this grace given." At a love-feast which he conducted several persons sp ...read more

55.) The Only Remedy For Sin
      Psalm 103:12 -- "As far as the east is from the west, so far hath he removed our transgressions from us." Two facts in the text do not require any effort to prove: Man is a sinner, and salvation has been provided. But our text teaches that sin sticks, stays by you. You can move from the North to the South; you can move from the East to the West ...read more

56.) The Optimism of Faith
      Gen. 15:16 -- "In the fourth generation they shall come hither again." The man whose eyes are open hath said: he hath said, which heard the words of God, which saw the vision of the Almighty. -- Num. 24:3, 4 Here was a man who could not get away from delivering the message that God would have him to give. He loved the wages of unrighteousne ...read more

57.) The Price Of Victory
      "And he said, Thus saith the Lord, Make this valley full of ditches. For thus saith the Lord, Ye shall not see wind, neither shall ye see rain; yet that valley shall be filled with water, that ye may drink, both ye, and your cattle, and your beasts. "And this is but a slight thing in the sight of the Lord: He will deliver the Moabites also ...read more

58.) The Program of Jesus
      Matthew 19:22 -- "He went away sorrowful" He went away sorrowful." To live twenty, thirty, forty, or fifty years of life and miss the thought of God is my idea of total failure. The Psalmist said, "What is man that thou art mindful of him? Thou hast made him lower than the angels for a little While." And there never was a human being created ...read more

59.) The Saints' Attendants
      Psalm 23:6 -- "Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life." Wonderful poem dictated by the Holy Spirit! I do not wonder at the praise lavished upon it by a brother who today is in the presence of the King. I linger on his words while my heart is stirred by their aptness and beauty. He says, "One of the things that we nev ...read more
