It is always a pleasure to me to speak on the subject of this volume. I think I would rather preach about the word of God than anything else except the love of God; because I believe it is the best thing in this world.

What is the history between the Old and New Testaments? Most people are not even aware there is such a gap. But there is: a 400-year gap. When the Old Testament leaves off, the Jews have just returned back from Babylonian captivity and the Persian Empire is in full swing. When Jesus enters the scene, it is 400 years later. The Persians are long gone, the Greeks have had their time, and now the Romans rule to roost. So what happened? Do we have any writings from this time? Could understanding this period of time help us understand the New Testament, the world of Jesus and the Apostles?

The question of forming habits on the basis of the grace of God is a very vital one. God regenerates us and puts us in contact with all his divine resources, but he cannot make us walk according to his will; the practising is ours, not God’s. We have to take the initiative and “add to...faith virtue...". To take the initiative means to make a beginning, and each one of us must do it for himself: We have to acquaint ourselves with the way we have to go; and beware of the tendency of asking the way when we know it perfectly well.

"I, Patrick, a sinner!” It is thus the devoted and energetic missionary who has been adopted by the Roman Catholic Church as the patron saint of Ireland, begins his own confession.

Little is actually known of his life and experience except that which he himself has told us.

Dr. Gregory’s book, The Seven Laws of Teaching, was first published it 1884. A clear and simple statement of the important factors governing the art of teaching, it has been especially successful as a handbook for Sunday school teachers.

This is a "kitchen table" book. It reads as a casual conversation covering some of the biggest topics of life: meaning, evil, faith, and more. It is an unassuming approach to the author’s relentless search for truth. It explores the essence of, and the relationship between, belief, faith, and doubt, and probes the limits between believing something is true and knowing something is true. It illuminates how all of that impacts our spiritual growth and our very being.

Being one evening in Exeter Hall, I heard our late beloved brother, Mr. Mackay, of Hull, make a speech, in which he told us of a person who was under very deep concern of soul, and felt that he could never rest till he found salvation. So, taking the Bible into his hand, he said to himself, “Eternal life is to be found somewhere in this Word of God; and if it be here, I will find it, for I will read the book right through, praying to God over every page of it, if perchance it may contain some saving message for me”.

A minister must be both learned and religious. It is not a matter of choosing between the two. He must study, but he must study as in the presence of God and not in a secular spirit. He must recognize the privilege of pursuing his studies in the environment where God and salvation from sin are the air he breathes. He must also take advantage of every opportunity for corporate worship, particularly while he trains in the Theological Seminary. 

Officer Justice is a real life serial killer who is still at large in 2021. Justice is sharing his true life story now because he has been diagnosed with a terminal illness. This audiobook continues where book number one left off. In book number one, Officer Justice shared how he discovered his calling. Justice wants like-minded supporters to know he eliminated criminals so law-abiding citizens like you could live in peace. Officer Justice was employed as a Deputy Probation Officer when he began targeting probationers.

This book challenges orthodoxy in both science and religion, leading to the startling conclusion that mankind is totally responsible for its eschatological future. The Almighty Creator and Father will not intervene or determine the future apart from mankind's own ability to choose what it will be. Preliminary to that terminal choice, human beings must turn from their generational preference of lies over truth in both science and religion.
