  • HAVE I SEEN HIM?

    My Utmost For His Highest After that He appeared in another form unto two of them. Mark 16:12. Being saved and seeing Jesus are not the same thing. Many are partakers of God’s grace who have never seen Jesus. When once you have seen Jesus, you can never be the same, other things do not…

  • HIS RESURRECTION DESTINY

    Ought not Christ to have suffered these things, and to enter into His glory? Luke 24:26. Our Lord’s Cross is the gateway into His life: His Resurrection means that He has power now to convey His life to me. When I am born again from above, I receive from the risen Lord His very life.…

  • WHY ARE WE NOT TOLD PLAINLY

    My Utmost For His Highest He charged them that they should tell no man what things they had seen, till the Son of man were risen from the dead. Mark 9:9. Say nothing until the Son of man is risen in you—until the life of the risen Christ so dominates you that you understand what…

  • THE COLLISION OF GOD AND SIN

    My Utmost For His Highest Who His own self bare our sins in His own body on the tree. 1 Peter 2:24. The Cross of Jesus is the revelation of God’s judgment on sin. Never tolerate the idea of martyrdom about the Cross of Jesus Christ. The Cross was a superb triumph in which the…

  • HIS AGONY AND OUR FELLOWSHIP

    My Utmost For His Highest Then cometh Jesus with them unto a place called Gethsemane, and saith unto the disciples, … tarry ye here, and watch with Me. Matthew 26:36, 38. We can never fathom the agony in Gethsemane, but at least we need not misunderstand it. It is the agony of God and Man…

    My Utmost For His Highest Behold, the hour cometh, … that ye shall be scattered. John 16:32.

  • THE GLORY THAT EXCELS

    My Utmost For His Highest The Lord … hath sent me that thou mightest receive thy sight. Acts 9:17. When Paul received his sight he received spiritually an insight into the Person of Jesus Christ, and the whole of his subsequent life and preaching was nothing but Jesus Christ—“I determined not to know anything among…

  • HEARTINESS V HEARTLESSNESS TOWARDS OTHERS

    My Utmost For His Highest It is Christ … who also maketh intercession for us … The Spirit … maketh intercession for the saints. Romans 8:34, 27. Do we need any more argument than this to become intercessors—that Christ “ever liveth to make intercession”; that the Holy Spirit “maketh intercession for the saints”? Are we…

    If any man see his brother sin a sin which is not unto death, he shall ask, and He shall give him life for them that sin not unto death. 1 John 5:16. If we are not heedful of the way the Spirit of God works in us, we shall become spiritual hypocrites. We see…
