  “ S O MIGHTILY GREW THE WORD OF GOD AND PREVAILED.” - Acts 19:20 [KJV] What a glorious thought to mediate upon, the Lord Jesus Christ our great God and Saviour shall prevail over all opposition to His sovereign power and glorious gospel (Rom ans 1:16) . All creatures in heaven and earth will eventually bow to His Lordship and confess that He is Lord to the glory of the Father (Phil ippians 2:9-11) . The Word of the Lord that mightily spread, increased and prevailed is both the incarnate Word (John 1:1, 14) and the written Word (Heb rews 4:12) . The Word of His gospel will never return to Him void but rather always will accomplish His pleasure and purpose and shall always prosper (Isa iah 55:11 & 53:10) .

We thus feel what a blessing it is to be made humble and submissive; and how impossible it is to enter into communion with a broken-hearted Jesus, till the soul is in some measure meekened by His Spirit.   But it is by having a succe

Weekend Gospel message to follow for All Hands(30OCT-01NOV20) Heads-Up --- Please find enclosed encouragement in SO GREAT SALVATION by the perfect and finished work of our Lord Jesus Christ in saving poor, needy and wretched sinners by His sovereign free grace - God's unmerited favor - from their sins and from Hell: "The JUSTICE OF GOD is in itself a great barrier to the salvation of a sinner. Because God is just, our sins must be punished. Never has there been a sin pardoned without atonement since the world began. There has never been a sin remitted by the great Judge of heaven until justice has been fully satisfied. How, then, can a sinner be saved? This is the great riddle of the law and the grand discovery of the gospel. The answer is, God’s justice has been fully satisfied through the substitution of our Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ [Isaiah 45:22; Romans 3:26]. He died “ THE JUST FOR THE UNJUST ” [I Peter 3:18] that He might bring us to God. Through the obedience
