  • CHRIST RETURNETH!

    Amazing Grace H. L. Turner, 19th century I will come again, and receive you unto Myself. (John 14:3 KJV) The promise of Christ’s return has been a source of much comfort to God’s people through the centuries. However, it has also caused disagreement and even some divisions within the church. Not all Bible students and…

  • WHERE THE BATTLE’S LOST AND WON

    My Utmost For His Highest If thou wilt return, O Israel, saith the Lord.… Jeremiah 4:1. The battle is lost or won in the secret places of the will before God, never first in the external world. The Spirit of God apprehends me and I am obliged to get alone with God and fight the…

  • LO! HE COMES WITH CLOUDS DESCENDING

    Amazing Grace Charles Wesley, 1707–1788 Look, He is coming with the clouds, and every eye will see Him, even those who pierced Him, and all the peoples of the earth will mourn because of Him. So shall it be! Amen. (Revelation 1:7) When Jesus made His first entrance to earth, He was seen by only…

  • Morning & Evening

    The rush is spongy and hollow, and even so is a hypocrite; there is no substance or stability in him. It is shaken to and fro in every wind just as formalists yield to every influence; for this reason the rush is not broken by the tempest, neither are hypocrites troubled with persecution. I would…

  • THOU DIDST LEAVE THY THRONE

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Despite firmly believing Yeshua was born in Autumn as the shepherds were out overnight in the field, it was tax season, Mary and Joseph slept out of doors, I wanted to share this hymn. The King of Glory – your Creator – left his Throne in heaven to incarnate in his Creation to redeem…

  • Morning & Evening

    Let us to-day go down to Bethlehem, and in company with wondering shepherds and adoring Magi, let us see him who was born King of the Jews, for we by faith can claim an interest in him, and can sing, “Unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given.” Jesus is Jehovah…

  • THE HIDDEN LIFE

    My Utmost For His Highest The Spirit of God witnesses to the simple, almighty security of the life hid with Christ in God, and this is continually brought out in the Epistles. We talk as if it were the most precarious thing to live the sanctified life; it is the most secure thing, because it…

  • Morning & Evening

    The Lord Jesus Christ was eternally rich, glorious, and exalted; but “though he was rich, yet for your sakes he became poor.” As the rich saint cannot be true in his communion with his poor brethren unless of his substance he ministers to their necessities, so (the same rule holding with the head as between…

  • HOW CAN I PERSONALLY PARTAKE IN THE ATONEMENT?

    My Utmost For His Highest But God forbid that I should glory save in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ. Gal. 6:14. The Gospel of Jesus Christ always forces an issue of will. Do I accept God’s verdict on sin in the Cross of Christ? Have I the slightest interest in the death of…

  • THE DRAWING OF THE FATHER

    My Utmost For His Highest No man can come to Me, except the Father which hath sent Me draw him. John 6:44. When God draws me, the issue of my will comes in at once—will I react on the revelation which God gives; will I come to Him? Discussion on spiritual matters is an impertinence.…
