21.) Martyrs are Witnesses
      We have come to use the word of such as seal their testimony with their blood. It is a beautiful word for such. When we speak of the "noble army of martyrs," who through flame and fire, through blood and suffering, proved their loyalty to Christ, let us remember that the fires did not make them martyrs. The fires did but reveal them to be martyrs. ...read more

22.) Only Believers Experience the Problem of Pain
      "For we know that the whole creation groaneth and travaileth in pain together until now" (Rom. 8:22). It may be well that we remind ourselves that pain presents no problem to any man except to the man who believes in God. Pain becomes a problem only in the presence of faith. When, ever and anon, some believer, it may be one whose faith at ...read more

23.) Our Responsibility
      G. Campbell Morgan observes, "When once the Lord has been seen and crowned there is a progressive operation of the Spirit in the life of the believer. The Spirit reveals the Christ to you in some new aspect as you read His Word, as you meditate upon Him, and the moment you see Christ in some new glory, that vision makes a demand upon you. What are ...read more

24.) Post-Resurrection Appearing
      Today we are living in post-resurrection days in the fullest sense; in days when we no longer have the presence of our Lord as to the physical fact, but when we know He is night at hand, in the midst of every assembly of His people, the close, personal companion of every pilgrim of faith, the constant comrade of every trusting soul. . . . He wa ...read more

25.) Preaching With Passion
      In the true sermon there must always be passion. Our Lord's testimony concerning John, His forerunner, was this: "He was a burning and a shining light" (John 5:35). It is one thing to shine; it is quite another to burn as well. Half the sermons today--may I be forgiven if I am cruel--are failing because they lack the note of passion. There is ...read more

27.) Proclaiming the Word of Truth
      "And he gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers" (Eph. 4:11). The business of those within the Church is to teach the word of truth in such form and fashion that the Church will be able to incarnate the Word, and flash the light on the world's darkness. The apostolic function, which, ...read more

28.) Progressive Growth
      Whenever a new vision is presented to the trusting soul a new crisis is created for that soul, and the soul will either obey and march into larger life, or disobey and turn backward. The man or woman who has the largest, fullest knowledge of Christ is the man or woman who is most conscious that he or she has hardly yet begun to see His glory. The H ...read more

29.) Redemption through the Blood
      Ever day I need the Cross more . . . Every day I live this Christian life I am more and more conscious that I cannot understand the mystery of all Jesus did; yet more and more conscious that by the way of that Cross, and that Cross alone, my wounded heart is healed, my withered soul is renewed, my deformed spirit is built up, my broken manhood is ...read more

30.) Salvation is Righteousness Made Possible
      "For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ...For therein is the righteousness of God revealed..." (Rom. 1:16-17). Salvation is righteousness made possible. If you can tell me that salvation is deliverance from hell, I tell you that you have an utterly inadequate understanding of what salvation is. If you tell me that salvation is forgi ...read more

31.) The Darkness Of Golgotha
      THERE'S ALWAYS THE danger that we might read this verse too quickly. We treat it too often as though it were merely the record of something incidental. As a matter of fact, it is the central verse in the story of the cross. Indeed, the cross itself is not mentioned in the verse-no word is spoken of it or of the Christ. They are alike hidden, a ...read more

32.) The Fellowship of Christ's Sufferings
      "That I may know him...and the fellowship of his sufferings..." (Phil. 3:10). Do not miss the blessedness of the fact that the fellowship of His sufferings means that He has fellowship with us. When I enter into the fellowship of His sufferings I am not alone, for He is forever with me. I can endure no pain for Him that He does not share ...read more

33.) The History of Revival in Wales in the 19 Century
      During the 19th century, there were several revivals in Wales. A brief sketch of the more remarkable of these will show how certain traits appeared in each of the revivals as if transmitted to one another by a hereditary law. Many know the story of the village of Beddgelert and the valley of Gwynant. In a farmhouse in the valley one Sunday in Au ...read more

34.) The Living Church Reveals the Living Person
      "...the church of the living God, the pillar and ground of the truth" (1 Tim. 3:15). The Church of God apart from the Person of Christ is a useless structure. However ornate it may be in its organization, however perfect in all its arrangements, however rich and increased with goods, if the Church is not revealing the Person, lifting Him ...read more

35.) Three Hours
      "He saved others; Himself He cannot." So they laughed at Him. Hear it again as a truth sublime and awful: because He saved others, He cannot save Himself. In order to save others He will not save Himself. Said the rabble, and said the rabbis joining in the unholy chorus, "Let Him come down from the cross"-27:42. He did not come down from the cr ...read more
