     | 1,109 views

    Whoever exalts himself shall be abased, and he that humbles himself shall be exalted.

    COME UP HITHER. Proverbs 25:6-7. This proverb is doubtless what Jesus had in mind when He made His own parable about people choosing the finest seats for themselves at a feast (Luke 14:7-11).

     | 1,293 views

    When He calls His covenant people to judgment, those bound to Him by sacrifice, it is not necessarily something to strike terror into our hearts: because that covenant is true, and that all-sufficient sacrifice is Jesus.

    COVENANT PEOPLE IN THE DOCK. Psalm 50:1-8, Psalm 50:22-23. “A Psalm of Asaph,” reads the superscription. Asaph was a chief musician contemporary with King David (1 Chronicles 16:4-7). Asaph is also referred to as a ‘seer’ (2 Chronicles 29:30). Taken as a whole, the content of this ...read more
