The design of this article is to propound several rules by a steady conformity to any one of which a man may preach so as not to convert anybody. It is generally conceded at the present day that the Holy Spirit converts souls to Christ by means of

“Marvel not that I said unto thee, ye must be born again.” John 3:7. The world in which we live is becoming more wicked with each new day. Threats of terrorism control the news headlines. Teenagers are killing their classmates and peers. Regard for the well-being of others

The above title may come as a surprise to some, as many people believe that all non-Catholics are Protestants. But this is not so, as we trust you will see as you read this article. I am not a Protestant because I am a member of the church

Despite the plain, simple teachings of God’s Word on the subject of the antichrist, men continue to wrest the scriptures and picture a super human dictator who will rule the entire world, demanding all, both small and great, to receive a mark in their hand or forehead before

This poor world hardly knows what the real gospel is anymore. I unhesitatingly lay the blame for this at the door of the modern religious world. Weak, shallow, and effeminate in its fight against wrong, false religion has done more to enlarge hell than alcohol or drugs has

“And I saw three unclean spirits like frogs come out of the mouth of the dragon, and out of the mouth of the beast, and out of the mouth of the false prophet. For they are the spirits of devils, working miracles, which go forth unto the kings

Repentance implies that a measure of divine wisdom is communicated to the sinner, and that he thereby becomes wise to salvation. His mind, purposes, opinions, and inclinations are changed, and that in consequence, there is a total change in his conduct. It need scarcely be remarked that, in

The experience of holiness, or Christian perfection, is the mainspring of all gospel truth. It was doubtless the hindrance to the development of the apostasy in apostolic times mentioned by Paul in 2 Thess. 2:7. And if the possessions of holiness by the apostolic church kept back the

Many try to claim that what one wears doesn’t matter, it’s what is in the heart. The fact of the matter is that the issues of life flow out from the heart. If one is proud, worldly and immodest in their spirit, be sure it will be expressed

In the gospel of John, we read of the marriage feast at Cana. Here Mary emphasizes the importance of Jesus, her son, and the words that He speaks. Realizing that the wine was gone and that she herself could not do anything, she tells Jesus, the only one

The expression “kingdom of Christ” is identical in meaning with “kingdom of God” and “kingdom of heaven.” As it is used in the New Testament it means the spiritual kingdom of God, as distinguished from God’s rule over the universe or the kingdom of literal Israel. The kingdom

This question, “Is it right to judge?” is one that puzzles many sincere Christians. A careful and open-minded study of the Bible makes it clear that concerning certain vital matters, it is not only right, but a positive duty to judge. Many do not know that the scripture

The devil has promoted a deadly lie and multitudes have swallowed it with the help of today’s false prophets. The apostle Paul’s Christian experience has been grossly misrepresented by misapplication of his writings in Romans chapter 7. Most Protestants can probably quote these scriptures, for to them they

First of all, we should notice several outstanding facts: 1. Life, however long it is, is very brief. 2. There is a HEAVEN that we must seek to gain and a HELL that we must seek to shun. 3. Soon you will be in eternity. 4. You will

“And I saw an angel come down from heaven, having the key of the bottomless pit and a great chain in his hand. “And he laid hold on the dragon, that old serpent, which is the Devil, and Satan, and bound him a thousand years. “And cast him

Rev. 14:14-20 14. Behold, a white cloud, and upon the cloud one sat like unto the Son of man, having on his head a golden crown, and in his hand a sharp sickle. 15. And another angel came out of the temple, crying with a loud voice to

My King was born King. The Bible says He’s a seven way King: He’s the King of the Jews–that’s an ethnic King. He’s the King of Israel–that’s a national King. He’s the King of righteousness. He’s the King of the ages. He’s the King of heaven. He’s the

Don’t marry a man to reform him; To God and your own self be true. Don’t link to his vices your virtue; You’ll rue it, dear girl, if you do. No matter how fervent his pleadings, Be not by his promise led; If he can’t be a man

“Do not sin against the child.” Genesis 42:22. God, who declared in His Word, “All souls are mine,” has committed unto every mother and unto every father an enormous trust: the priceless souls of their children. Consequently, parents will be answerable for their children before the judgment seat

“Likewise the Spirit helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered.” Romans 8:26. We Christians, in and of ourselves, have infirmities (feebleness, weakness) in prayer. We need

“Howbeit in the spirit he speaketh mysteries.” Mysteries were a familiar subject to the apostle Paul; a topic which he addresses in his epistle to the Ephesians in chapters 1:9–10, 3:3–9, and 5:32: “Having made known unto us the mystery of his will … He might gather together

“Jesus Christ of the seed of David was raised from the dead according to my gospel.” 2 Tim. 2:8. “God shall judge the secrets of men by Jesus Christ according to my gospel.” Rom. 2:16. My gospel. This authoritative claim of the apostle Paul contains a great volume

After God had lovingly created the world, He observed with piercing, flaming eyes that all He had made was “very good.” Man himself shared in the glory of God’s own approval of His workmanship. Before long, man tragically lost his claim to perfection to the corrupting power of sin.

In a sermon preached from Philippians 1:27-28 titled “Apostolic Preacher,” Adam Clarke explained Christian holiness: “The whole design of God was to restore man to his image, and raise him from the ruins of his fall; in a word, to make him perfect; to blot out all his

The subject of the sabbath in the gospel dispensation has been the object of much confusion in the minds of some that call themselves Christians. However, God’s Word brightly illumines the pathway of the just, and God’s children need not remain in darkness concerning this subject. The fourth
