    THE ESTABLISHMENT OF TRUE RIGHTEOUSNESS. Romans 3:9-26. I. The Universality of Sin. Every one of us thinks that we are better than criminals. We imagine that we are moral human beings.

    The manifestation of this revelation is according to a commandment of the everlasting God.

    A MYSTERY UNFOLDED. Romans 16:25-27. The Apostle Paul was a master of the long sentence, and the doxology of his letter to the Romans is a classic example. In these three verses Paul echoes the introduction (Romans 1:1-5), and gathers up some of the themes that have occupied his attention ...read more

    The exodus is a type of our salvation, and the wilderness wanderings serve to warn us against presumptuousness.

    BAPTISM AND COMMUNION IN THE WILDERNESS. 1 Corinthians 10:1-13. 1. The continuity of Israel and the Church. The Apostle Paul, a ‘Hebrew of the Hebrews’ (Philippians 3:5), refers to the Gentile and Jewish Christians at Corinth as “brethren” (1 Corinthians 10:1) - thereby indicating the ...read more

    Our Warrant for Communion.

    REMEMBRANCE, UNTIL HE COMES. 1 Corinthians 11:23-26. “Don’t look back,” people may say. Yet there is a time when we must pause and recollect. Communion is just such a time.

    LO, I COME. Hebrews 10:5-10. The Old Testament tabernacle was appointed by God, and patterned upon the realities of heaven (Hebrews 8:5). The law was written with the finger of God, but only served to reveal man’s inadequacy (Romans 3:20). The sacrifices were required by the LORD, but they had ...read more

    THE COMMUNION CUP. Matthew 26:27-28. Each of the four cups of the Passover meal was associated with a line of Exodus 6:6-7. The third cup is linked to the words “I will redeem you.” Jesus took this cup, and invested it with new meaning. Instead of the blood of the original Passover lamb, it ...read more

    PERSECUTION: THE OPENING SALVOES. Acts 4:1-31; Acts 5:12-42. Soon after the early success of Pentecost, the fledgling New Testament church found herself facing persecution.

    O MAGNIFY THE LORD WITH ME. Psalm 34:1-8. David was ‘on the run’ from king Saul.

Knowing that David was in this place, his ...read more
