Christ Jesus told the Samaritan woman that since God is a spirit, His worship must be of a spiritual nature. Since God is a spirit, fellowship with Him must involve our spirit, not our flesh. Worship must suit the nature of the Object worshiped. And so for us, it is...

How the Spiritual God Should be Worship – John 4:4-23 Christ Jesus told the Samaritan woman that since God is a spirit, His worship must be of a spiritual nature. Since God is a spirit, fellowship with Him must involve our spirit, not our flesh. Worship must suit the...

For a couple of weeks, I have been thinking about this sample prayer. I thought I might incorporate it into the service last Tuesday, but it wasn’t the Lord’s will. However it was the Lord’s will that I spend some time meditating on it. As an example and guideline...

This is not the first time that I have preached on the subject of the human ear. I’ve done that in two sermons before, but the last time was many years ago. I thought about starting with an object lessons for tonight, but I think that we’re familiar enough with ears...

I have just finished listening to a CD biography of William Tyndale by David Teems. It was so fascinating that I asked the library to find a hard copy so I could re-read what I had heard. Tyndale loved the Word of God and the English language which was still in its...

When I was in school there were several ways to look at the timing of the Lord’s return. That Christ will return to earth in power and great glory is something which cannot be denied by anyone who reads the Bible in any literal sort of way. The most prominent...

Bro. Stewart has in his employ a young man who professes to have been recently converted to Christ. Of course, none of us can judge the man’s heart, but it sounds as though he might have been converted to the Holy Spirit rather than to Christ. Because of this man,...

Mrs. Charlotte Yeoman was a member of our church in Calgary thirty-five years ago. She has remained such a family friend that Judy and I refused to visit Canada a few weeks ago without driving eight hours out of our way to spend a day with her and her husband....

Let me begin this evening by giving you my outline: “Thus saith the Lord” is the Baptist’s Banner. It is the Christian’s Comfort, the Sinner’s Censure, and the Servant’s Summons. “Thus saith the Lord” ends in the Enemy’s Execution, and...

I read of a man who was in town on business; it was going to take about ten days. As he was walking his hotel after dinner one evening he noticed a sign which read “Chinese Laundry.” By that time he had plenty of dirty clothes, so he made a note of the...

John the Baptist gives us and example to use for a study of humility. The Lord hates pride and loves humility. The Lord loved John. We all need to be more humble than we are, but it needs to be a Biblically-governed humility. It needs to come from within us, from the...

Years ago there was a Christian young man, 14-yrs-old, who had landed his first real job. He was a helper in a hardware store which was owned by his uncle. One day a customer came in and ordered a couple of pounds of nails, and Billy was sent to help the man. Into the...

As quite often happens, this morning’s message didn’t go the way I originally intended. Thursday, as I sat down to prepare, I had a plan in mind, but the Holy Spirit had another. And as is usually the case, the Lord won the day, and my message ended up different than...

We looked at this scripture just recently, considering, what we might call, the Spirit’s secondary purpose. Going back over my notes, I decided to approach it a second time considering the Lord’s primary purpose. And that is in spite of the fact that Baptists are...

If I was given the word “pillar” in a word association test, and I had not just read these verses from the Old Testament, I’d probably think of some sort of Grecian column. I doubt that anyone thinks of “guidance” in any relation to the...
