The entire system known as Judaism, along with all its component parts, is, in the purpose of God, in total abeyance (suspension) throughout this present dispensation, but with definite assurance that the whole Jewish system thus interrupted will be completed by extension into the millennial...

It’s not like when Adam and Eve sinned God had to go to a plan B. Was it not part of His plan? Isn’t He omniscient and knew what they would do? How would they have ever known what good and evil is apart from experiencing the sin? It’s my belief that He wanted us to be like Him in knowing what...

It is continually encouraging to know (esp. the more we see the “old man” at work in us) that God knows our most important desire is to “please” Him, because there are often times when this can be difficult to express, but yet ever remains true to those reborn (Phl 2:13). It’s when we are...

While Martha was cumbered about much serving (Luk 10:40), and her love, most true in its way, went forth in actively providing for the Lord’s outward need, Mary unconsciously perhaps, proved her stronger faith and deeper love by sitting at His feet and drinking in His words. The thought of...

In a dispensation where God’s mind is completely revealed we often find there is much fervor lacking in the knowledge and joy of the Lord Jesus (2Pe 2:20), and spiritual fondness of it all is at low ebb! But there will always be those believers whom God uses to increase the interest and...

But take the born again Christian—not when he is yielding to the old man (which all occasionally do—NC); take him where, in truth alone, so to speak, we can rightly think of a believer as such—in the exercise of his faith, in the manifestation of the new life which the grace of God has given...

Concerning man, the purpose of the Law was two-fold: manifest guilt (Rom 3:20, 21; Gal 3:10) and direct one to the sin solution (Gal 5:24, 25)! -NC Romans 8:4: “That the righteousness of the law might be fulfilled in us.” By the righteousness of the law, is not meant the righteousness of...

To us heaven is open, and faith can say, “We see Jesus” (Heb 2:9). Of old God dwelt in the midst of His people in the sanctuary, but the veil was there, and there was no way of approaching Him. Now, the veil is rent; heaven—not the sanctuary on earth—is open. The way into the Holiest of All is...

There are times when the believer feels something is wrong; and it seems often related to possibly doing something wrong, but we can’t immediately identify the wrongdoing. Well, something is wrong, and it’s always the same thing which is wrong—it’s just the “old man” again (Eph 4:22; Col...

A girl at a certain college was much admired both for her personal appearance and her artistic abilities. She had very beautiful auburn hair, and seemed to be able to do anything on canvas with her paints and brushes. Her college mates asked her the secret of her lovely hair. She mentioned how...

In Scripture the term “lost” when pertaining to people is always used for those who will be saved (Mat 10:6; 15:24; Mat 18:11; Luk 19:10). Thus those who will never be saved are not the lost but just unbelievers, because their names aren’t in the “Book of Life,” as God knows they will never...

The difference between learning sin in God’s presence and learning by falling into it is very great. One may feel sin deeply, because one has committed it, but this never gives one God’s sense of what sin is. The Cross of the Lord Jesus Christ is the measure of what sin is in the sight of the...

Have you noticed that the most important work of Christ—our eternal salvation—is one of the doctrines becoming increasingly misunderstood? Until this all-important issue is settled and established properly, there can be no real spiritual growth, for all growth truths are based and supported in...

Does God need to repeatedly forgive His children? What would such a need be, seeing He knows all we desire is to please Him; and this He assures (Phl 2:13). There is allowance for babes in Christ, who may yet have a habitual sin to give up, but He eventually brings all to the same knowledge...

The Lord Jesus Christ lived and spoke to His apostles while He was on earth, and in His natural state; and He chose Paul to reveal many things that nobody knew about. He appeared and spoke to Paul from the “glorified state” (about 8 years after His resurrection). Isn’t it like the Father to...

A lady traveling alone on a cruise ship became very concerned about the stormy waters they were encountering on the sea. It was an older vessel and was taking quite a beating, so she hurriedly went to the Captain’s helm, found the Captain and asked him what are we going to do? He calmly said, do...

Bearing in mind these characteristic differences between the Jewish camp and the Christian company, we can easily test the great religious systems of Christendom. Do these systems bear the characteristics of the camp or of Christianity? Alas, beyond all question, the truth compels us to admit...
