The idea of sending out a missionary with a few dollars in hand is set down in many quarters as absurd. How can you save souls without a committee? Don't you know that without a committee you can do nothing?

Man asks, "How am I to worship God?" and he has answered it also in his own way. In the gorgeous temple, in the pillared cathedral, with incense, and vestments, and forms, and ceremonies, and processions, and postures, he says. But these performances are the 'will worship' of self...

"Some are preaching out of jealousy and rivalry. But others preach about Christ with pure motives." Philip. 1:15 I hope I can rejoice in the Lord's blessing the labors of other good men. It is indeed a sad spirit when ministers are jealous of each other, and would rather cavil and find...

"Am I now trying to win the approval of men, or of God? Or am I trying to please men? If I were still trying to please men, I would not be a servant of Christ." Galatians 1:10 A fearless disregard of . . . smiles or frowns, character or consequences, opposition or approbation, pay or...

My desire is . . . 1. To exalt the grace of God. 2. To proclaim salvation alone through the blood and righteousness of the Lord Jesus Christ. 3. To declare the sinfulness, helplessness, and hopelessness of man in a state of nature. 4. To describe, as far as I am able, the living...

This soft, extravagant, luxurious slothfulness—this ease-loving disposition—is the bane of the present generation of professing Christians! The robustness of spiritual strength, the hardihood of Christian courage, the self-sacrificing disposition of ardent love, the cross-bearing temper of...

The model of Christian holiness The model of Christian holiness is Christ. Christ . . . as the man of sorrows, as exposed to temptation, as subject to affliction, as the servant of God, as the Son learning obedience by the things which He suffered, as separate from sin and...

What is heaven? Heaven is a state where we shall see Christ as He is, and be like Him. It is the region of moral purity. Its inhabitants are holy— the holy Father, the holy Savior, the holy Spirit, holy angels, holy men. Its occupations are holy—the service of God—the song of...

Why are spirituality of mind, and heavenliness of affection so low? Why have we such a race of worldly-minded professors? Why? The private reading and study of the Scriptures are sadly neglected! Men are strangers to their Bibles! The Bible was never more widely circulated—but at the same...

The secret of happiness "I have learned to be content whatever the circumstances. I know what it is to be in need, and I know what it is to have plenty. I have learned the secret of being content in any and every situation, whether well fed or hungry, whether living in plenty or in need."...

The Christian minister The Christian minister is the spiritual shepherd of the flock. He has to increase not their knowledge only—but also their holiness, love, and spirituality. He has to aid them in performing all the branches of duty, and in cultivating all the graces of sanctification...

The sin of killing time "Only fools idle away their time." Proverbs 12:11 Idleness is a complicated vice. Yes, I say VICE! First it is a most wasteful vice. It wastes time, which is more precious than rubies; it wastes a man's mental faculties; it wastes property. Idleness is a...
