While we have no means of knowing just when this Gospel was written, or even whether (as some suppose) it first appeared in Hebrew, or was originally written in Greek as it has come down to us, it is very evident that it is placed rightfully at the beginning of the New Testament; for it is very definitely...

A longing desire for Peace in a war torn world is in the hearts of the vast majority of men and women of all nations. How to secure Peace is the perplexing problem that all the world is now facing. It is with such a background as this that Dr. Ironside selected the title “The Way Of Peace.” When...

“Jesus saith unto them, did ye never read in the Scriptures, The stone which the builders rejected, the same is become the head of the corner: this is the Lord’s doing, and it is marvelous in our eyes? Therefore say I unto you, The kingdom of God shall be taken from you, and given to a nation...

The little volume now before the reader consists of revised notes, considerably abbreviated, of addresses delivered in the Moody Memorial Church, Chicago, during a part of the winter of 1931–32. Many of those who listened to them professed to find blessing and edification, and there were hundreds...

There are two lines of truth very clearly distinguished in Scripture which are often confounded by those who do not read discriminatingly and who are not given to “rightly dividing the Word of Truth.” I refer to the subjects, “Salvation by Grace” and “Reward for Service.” To the casual...

OF the prophet Zephaniah practically nothing is known beyond what he himself tells us in the first verse. His pedigree is traced back through four generations, and the date of his ministry is given as “in the days of Josiah the son of Amon, king of Judah.” Those were days of blessing and revival...

Harry A. Ironside is now at home with the Lord his Saviour, whom he deeply loved and so devotedly served. The publishers are conscious of their deep privilege in preserving in book form these studies on the first book of the Psalms. These addresses were originally given by Dr. Ironside at the Moody...

IN the book of Ezra, we see a remnant people gathered back to the place where the Lord had set His name, after a long period of bondage and exile in Babylon, the centre of the false religious system of that day. Nehemiah pursues the further history of this company for some years afterwards, but is...

FIVE times in the New Testament our Lord Jesus Christ is called the only begotten, and five times He is called the first born or the first begotten. And in these we may see how carefully balanced is the presentation of the truth as to His divine-human personality. He is God and Man in one wondrous...

We are all familiar with the passages in the New Testament that record our Lord's remarkable statement in regard to the faith that moves mountains. When the disciples saw how soon the barren fig tree had withered away after it was cursed, and expressed their astonishment in regard to this, we are...

How many lost ones there are tonight who fully intended sometime to be saved. How many there are who are in the depths of woe who had made up their minds that sometime they were coming to Christ, but they went on and Death caught them in their sins and now they are beyond all hope of mercy. How long...

WE hear much these days about priorities. A few months ago the word was rarely ever used. To many it was comparatively unknown. The war has brought several new words into common usage which formerly had no particular appeal. We need to realize that in all things our first duty and responsibility is...

“I, PATRICK, A SINNER!” It is thus the devoted and energetic missionary who has been adopted by the Roman Catholic Church as the patron saint of Ireland, begins his own confession. He starts his letter of protest to Coroticus in the same striking way. Whatever others may have thought of him or...

A correspondent lately called the writer’s attention to some statements made against so-called “Plymouth Brethren” and their views, by Dr. A. H. Strong, the well-known Baptist theologian, in his “Systematic Theology,” 7th edition, pp. 498, 9. Though averse to controversy, and seeing little...
