“And if ye call on the Father, who without respect of persons judgeth according to every man’s work, pass the time of your sojourning here in fear: Forasmuch as ye know that ye were not redeemed with corruptible things, as silver and gold, from your vain conversation received by tradition from your fathers; But with…
“Wherefore gird up the loins of your mind, be sober, and hope to the end for the grace that is to be brought unto you at the revelation of Jesus Christ; As obedient children, not fashioning yourselves according to the former lusts in your ignorance: But as he which hath called you is holy,…
In John 13:15 we read, “For I have given you an example, that ye should do as I have done to you.” The example that Jesus set for His disciples was one of servitude. I believe that Jesus was implying here that they should follow His example not just in one area but in all…
“Of which salvation the prophets have enquired and searched diligently, who prophesied of the grace that should come unto you: Searching what, or what manner of time the Spirit of Christ which was in them did signify, when it testified beforehand the sufferings of Christ, and the glory that should follow.

“Wherein ye greatly rejoice, though now for a season, if need be, ye are in heaviness through manifold temptations: That the trial of your faith, being much more precious than of gold that perisheth, though it be tried with fire, might be found unto praise and honour and glory at the appearing of Jesus Christ:…

There is nothing more comforting and encouraging than the faith of a godly mother. A mother who loves the Lord and her children is like a rare and precious gem. If you have such a godly mother, you should be very thankful for her and appreciative of her. The greatest example in scripture of a…
Peter is the most well-known apostle of Jesus Christ. He is writing this epistle to believers who are scattered throughout the various regions of the Roman world. The believers are identified as ‘strangers.’ In other words, as believers in the Lord Jesus, we are strangers and pilgrims in this world. Our citizenship is in heaven.…
There is much to be said about the life of a believer in the Lord Jesus Christ. However, the summation of the Christian life and purpose is found in our text in Acts 1:8. “But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me…
Psalm 40:1-2 says, “I waited patiently for the Lord; and he inclined unto me, and heard my cry. He brought me up also out of an horrible pit, out of the miry clay, and set my feet upon a rock, and established my goings.” When we think of our feet, we think of the…
