“Jesus Christ came into the world to save sinners. It is a very surprising thing—a thing to be marveled at most of all by those who enjoy it. I know that it is to me even to this day the greatest wonder that I ever heard of, that God should ever justify me. I feel [...]

“Thus you see that a rainbow is round about the throne of grace, and what this rainbow is. Look then, when you go to prayer, for the throne; and that you may not be deceived with a fancy, look for the rainbow too. The rainbow, that is, as I have said, the personal performances of [...]

“Sanctification is the invariable result of that vital union with Christ which true faith gives to a Christian. ‘He who abides in Me, and I in him, the same brings forth much fruit’ (John 15:5).

“The conduct of the wise men is a striking example of faith. They believe in Christ when they had never seen Him–but that was not all. They believed in Him when the Scribes and Pharisees were unbelieving–but that again was not all. They believed in Him when they saw Him a little infant on Mary’s [...]

Christians are aware of the difference it would make if, after all, it transpired that there had never been an incarnation or an atonement. They know that then they would [...]

“‘But how does the Spirit give us victory?’ By our living in the Spirit and walking after the Spirit. As we abound in the graces of the Spirit and walk according to them, the fruits of the Spirit restrict the fruits of the flesh, because the works of the flesh are contrary to the works [...]
