Isn’t it amazing! Our Mediator is completely even-handed in dealing with both the holy God and us sinners. Job seriously feels the need of help. He describes his life as hurtling ahead. It’s like a fast-paced runner streaking towards the finish line (Job 9:25), like a ship in full sail breaking through the foam on […]
JESUS “FAITHFUL and TRUE” (Rev 19:11). “Faithful” (pistos) refers to one who “can be relied on…in the transaction of business, the execution of commands, or the discharge of official duties”; while “true” (alethinos) speaks of “that which has not only the name and resemblance, but the real nature corresponding to the name, in every respect.” […]
“Your gentleness has made me great” (2 Sam 22:36). In urging Robert Southey to write a biography of John Wesley, Sir Walter Scott recounts the following: “When I was twelve years old, I heard him [Wesley] preach more than once, standing on a chair, in Kelso churchyard. He was a most venerable figure…. He told […]
The primitive churches were not mere assemblies of men who agreed to meet together once or twice a week, and to subscribe for the support of an accomplished man who should on those occasions deliver lectures on religion.

Put an 85-year-old man, a 150-year-old tree, and a chain saw together. What do you get? A lesson that cuts right to the heart. […]

Do you wonder why there are those long […]
“‘Who has known the mind of the Lord that he may instruct Him?’ But we have the mind of Christ” (1 Cor 2:16). In seeking after God, Job will later observe, we can only discover “the mere edges of His ways, and how small a whisper we hear of Him!” (Job 26:14). So if he can’t understand God, […]
