Hallelujah - The LORD our Righteousness!

“ Surely, shall one say, in the L ORD have I righteousness and strength .” -I SAIAH 45:24 [KJV] Have you learnt that you are a sinner in the sight of God? Have you ever felt the length, breadth, and spirituality of H is holy law? Do you feel in your very soul that without Christ’s righteousness being imputed to you, and H is blood being sprinkled upon your conscience, you must die in your sins and never reach the heavenly shore? Has this ever been, or is it still a matter of solicitude to you? Has it ever caused sighs and groans to come out of your heart? Has the spirit of prayer ever been given, to make you plead with the Lord for the forgiveness of your sins, through the merits of a crucified Saviour? And have you any hope but in H is blood, righteousness and finished work? Now if the Lord has been pleased to exercise your soul on this way, if H e has not yet granted the longing desire of your heart, H e certainly will in due time reveal H is dear S on in you as the God...

Shout joyfully unto Almighty God

A song of praise unto our LORD! ---Sung in Hebrew with English translation--- Ref: P SALM 94: 17-19 Shout joyfully in thanksgiving unto our Mighty God ( 4 min 34 sec ): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r6hq5f9-vs8 LU-LAY ADONAI EZRA-TA-LI KIMAT SAHCH-NA DAUMA NAFSHI Had not the LORD been a help for me, My soul would soon in silence be.

Give me understanding according to THY WORD!

"Take heed  what ye hear." - MARK 4:24 [KJV] It is our unspeakable mercy, it calls for our daily tribute of praise, and daily study to improve it, that a free use of the lively oracles of truth is permitted us; others are denied this rich privilege. Happy those to whom the word of God is the rule of their faith, a light to direct their paths, and a standard whereby they try and prove the doctrines they hear, whether they are of God or man. The WHOLE TRUTH, as it is in Jesus, is precious to every believer. Faith comes by hearing the word of God. As the ear is the inlet to the soul, we should ever take heed what kind of doctrines we hear. It was through the ear Satan gained access to the heart of Eve, and beguiled her. Paul alludes to this, "I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve through his subtlety, so your minds should be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ" (II CORINTHIANS 11:3) . What is this simplicity? Even this p...

My Determination

God’s people delight to hear the glorious gospel, the good news that the Lord is "a just God and a Savior" through the blood and righteousness of Christ. His children feed, live and thrive on the message of "Jesus Christ and Him crucified" ( I CORINTHIANS 2:2) . I was told some time ago that my sermons contained nothing new and different. I appreciated the complement. Concerning the gospel, if it is new, it isn’t true; if it is true, it isn’t new. The message remains the same, and it is my determination not to veer away from the "old paths" (J EREMIAH 6:16) . The gospel is the children’s bread, green pasture for the sheep. It is the only Light in a world of darkness, the Wisdom of God in a world of foolishness, the Life of God in a world of death, the Truth of God in a world of religious error and the Power of God in a world of spiritual impotence . It is the "narrow way that leadeth unto life" (M ATTHEW 7:14) and all othe...
