"Salvation is of the LORD." -Jonah 2:9

Jesus, the Bread of Life for the Hungry Soul by D. G Miles McKee   In John’s Gospel, we find the seven ‘I Am’ scriptures, spoken by Jesus to declare His Deity.  Among them, we discover John 6:35, “I am the bread of life: he that cometh to Me shall never hunger, and he that believeth on Me shall never thirst.” Listening to this, we must conclude that, if Jesus is not God, He can hardly be viewed as a repository of deep humility.  Here, He declares Himself as the Bread, the One who sustains life.  What a cheek to make this claim … that is if He is not God! Indeed, when we read the discourse, in John 6, we discover that Jesus makes a sevenfold reference to Himself as the Bread of Life (see verses 32, 33, 35, 48, 50, 51,58).  According to Jesus, this is the very bread that must be eaten, by faith, to receive everlasting life (see verses 50, 51, 53, 54, 56, 57, 58).    We should note that the Roman Communion makes much of this discourse to establ...

" And she shall bring forth a Son, and thou shalt call His name JESUS; for He shall save His people from their sins ." — Matthew 1:21 [KJV] O precious birth! precious Son! precious name! The Holy Ghost brings consolation to the hearts of poor sinners, from the belief of the manhood of JESUS. To this end the comforter bears so particular testimony by the word of the conception and birth of Christ. This is our happiness; at all times to consider the Saviour as "Emanuel, God with us:" our brother: "flesh of our flesh and bone of our bone." As Elihu says of himself, "Behold I am, according to thy wish, in God's stead. Behold, my terror shall not make thee afraid, neither shall my hand be heavy upon thee." Job 33:6, 7 . Thus to conceive of Jesus, is a sweet mystery, joyfully known to believing hearts. The Holy Ghost brings joy to our souls, by the NAME of JESUS. This name is above every name to us: it is "as precious ointment ...

"For Christ is entered into heaven itself, now to appear in the presence of God for us." — Hebrews 9:24 [KJV] How highly was Zacharias honored! He heard the gospel of salvation from the mouth of an angel; who said, "I am Gabriel, who stand in the presence of God, and am sent unto thee, to shew thee these glad tidings." But we see the awful effects of unbelief. Though thus beloved, and honored of God, yet he was struck dumb for a season— Luke 1:20 . Though God most dearly loves His people in Christ, yet, He sees their sins, and with fatherly affection chastises for them. Do we not see somewhat of our own case here? For, as faith inspires the heart and tongue with boldness, so unbelief strikes us dumb. We cannot speak a word, nor offer a plea for our poor souls, if faith lose sight of Jesus. But He never forgets us. Our souls are never neglected by Him. The Lamb is in the midst of the throne FOR US. In our nature, in the same human body, which was hang...

" Then said these men, We shall not find any occasion against this Daniel, except we find it against him concerning the law of his God ." — Daniel 6:5 [KJV] Happy Daniel, to have such a testimony of thy conduct from the mouth of thine implacable enemies. These men could allege nothing against this servant of God, in regard to his outward life and conversation; for he was a good subject, a quiet neighbour, just and honest in his dealings. Though in an eminent station, yet with what contempt and scorn do they seem to speak of him! This Daniel, this over-righteous fellow, who pretends to be more religious than all the rest of his neighbours. As it was in the beginning, so it is now, and ever will be, "He that is born after the flesh, will persecute him that is born after the Spirit." — Galatians 4:29 . What then? our enemies no sooner assault us, with their tongues, but our God takes our part. "If ye be reproached for the name of Christ, happy are y...

" And his disciples came, and took up the body, and buried it, and went and told Jesus." — Matthew 14:12 [KJV] Thus was extinguished that burning and shining light, John Baptist. It is very staggering to the eye of sense, and the judgment of carnal reason, that the "Lord, whose eyes are over the righteous," should yet suffer His faithful ministers, and dearest children, to fall a sacrifice to the rage and malice of cruel, and unreasonable men. This puzzled the royal prophet David; this was an exercise to patient Job; and it has put disciples to the stand in all ages. We are ready to cry out, "Where is the God of Elijah!" When it comes nearer home, and we ourselves are the subjects of insults and injuries, from the power and malice of enemies to Jesus and His truths; this is a trial of faith. If this exercise is continued, if the enemy triumphs, and God our Friend appears not, as our Deliverer, how does Satan, who has stirred up fightings witho...

" Wherefore, beloved, seeing that ye look for such things, be diligent that ye may be found of Him in peace, without spot, and blameless." — II Peter 3:14 [KJV] It is a most grand delusion to imagine that the doctrines of grace tend to lull the soul asleep in supine indolence, or slothful stupidity. The believer hath not so learned Christ. Though he is saved by grace freely, yet he is called to "labour diligently." By faith he looks forward, to the fulfilment of awful predictions and precious promises. Hence we are excited to daily diligence, in the performance of duties, the use of means, and the exercise of graces. Do we look for the burning of the earth, the elements, and all sublunary things? do we expect to be inhabitants of new heavens, and a new earth? do we wait, and sometimes long for the coming of the Lamb, our loving Master and precious Saviour? and shall we indulge carnal ease and spiritual sloth? shall we not fear to be found of Jesus in...
