The middle and latter end of the last century was a remarkable period. A chain of ministers, commencing with Whitefield, and embracing in its links Toplady, Berridge, Newton, Romaine, Huntington, and Hawker, extends itself down to our degenerate days. However differing in gifts, all these men were evidently taught by the same Spirit, and preached the same gospel. Toplady, like a lamp fed with spirit, flamed forth, blazed, and died, from shortness… Read More
For a sound, consistent, scriptural exposition of the word of God, no commentary, we believe, in any language can be compared with Dr. Gill’s. There may be commentaries on individual books of Scripture, which may surpass Dr. Gill’s in depth of research and fullness of exposition: and the great work from which Poole compiled his Synopsis may be more suitable to scholars and divines, as bringing together into one focus all the… Read More
Thomas Hardy, in one of his excellent letters, makes the following remark, “The best Christians I meet with are generally Huntingtonians.” This witness is true. There is, or as we must now say there was, for so few of them are left, a depth and clearness of experience, a savor and a sweetness, a rich, tender, feeling, unctuous utterance, a discrimination between law and gospel, letter and spirit, form and power, a… Read More
When the Lord called to Himself the soul of our dear friend, William Gadsby, with truth it might be said, “There is a great man fallen this day in Israel” (2 Sam. 3:38). We believe we are but speaking in full unison with the feelings and sentiments of the living family of God in this country when we say that, taking him all in all, we have lost in Mr. Gadsby the… Read More
Who that knows anything of the wondrous doings and dealings of the Lord in providence and grace can say that miracles have ceased? It is true that the croaking raven no longer brings bread and flesh, morning and evening to an Elijah by the brook Cherith; nor does the palsied leave his bed, or the dead come out of his grave, as in the days when Jesus walked here below. But wonders… Read More
Acts 10:1 Ver. 1. There was a certain man in Caesarea,…. This was the Caesarea formerly called Strato’s tower, not Caesarea Philippi; for the former, and not the latter, lay near Joppa: called Cornelius; which was a Roman name, and he himself was a Roman or an Italian: a centurion of the band called the Italian band; which consisted of soldiers collected out of Italy, from whence the band took its name,… Read More
Isaiah 40:15 Behold, the nations are as a drop of a bucket, and are counted as the small dust of the balance: behold, he taketh up the isles as a very little thing. Isaiah 40:17 All nations before him are as nothing; and they are counted to him less than nothing, and vanity.
Since I deeply feel the need of the presence and guiding Spirit of God, my prayer is that the Lord may bless me to answer your questions: “Do you believe that an elder, either you or I both having been duly ordained to the ministry by a presbytery of Old School Baptists, have a right to go preach, without affiliation, to people of that Old Baptist persuasion, who are NOT in what… Read More
In these last days it has pleased the Lord to withhold His Spirit in “demonstration and power” both from the ministry and from the hearers. Churches have dwindled in a born again membership and spiritual worship, until there are few who even mention the Lord’s name publicly; the deacons in old times were “full of the Holy Spirit,” but very rarely now can they be called upon to offer prayer, and still… Read More
John 3:1 There was a man of the Pharisees, named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews: The Jews were the people whom God was pleased to reveal Himself through in the first century. God chose the Jews during this time when Jesus walked the earth to be the group through whom God’s Word would come and through whom the Lord Jesus would come – through the earthly lineage as a man –… Read More
John 3:2 The same came to Jesus by night, and said unto him, Rabbi, we know that thou art a teacher come from God: for no man can do these miracles that thou doest, except God be with him. Nicodemus, a teacher himself of the Jews, came to Jesus by night. Many believe he came to Jesus by night so he would not been seen by the religious leaders of that day;… Read More
We will continue our study on “The Born Again Experience” looking in John 3:5. But first, let’s review our passage thus far. In John 3:1-4 a religious leader of his day Nicodemus is talking to Jesus, and Jesus tells Nicodemus that he must be born again. So the main message of our complete text (John 3:1-8) is concerning being born again. We studied this in John 3:3. Now let’s look at John… Read More
John 3:6 “That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is Spirit.” Jesus is speaking here and He is dividing the whole human race into two and only two classes: 1) those who have been born of the flesh; and 2) those who have been born of the Spirit. All human beings have been born of the flesh – meaning they have been… Read More
“Marvel not that I said unto thee, ye must be born again.” John 3:7 Jesus tells Nicodemus not to marvel (be surprised) that ye must be born again. Nicodemus should have known from Old Testament scriptures of the new birth which we looked at in previous verses, but I’ll repeat here: Ezekiel 36:24 For I will take you from among the heathen (those in false religion/the lost and dying world), and gather… Read More
John 3:8 “The wind bloweth it listeth, and thou hearest the sound thereof, but canst not tell whence it cometh, and whither it goeth: so is every one that is born of the Spirit.” Jesus here likens the work of the Holy Spirit to the wind: we can’t see the wind, but we see it’s effects. This is the also how the Holy Spirit works: we can’t see the Holy Spirit, but… Read More

“And my speech and my preaching was not with enticing words of man’s wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power.” I Corinthians 2:4 The Lord blesses His ministers to preach by the inspiration of the Spirit of God. The different gifts are measured out as it pleases the Lord. “But unto every one of us is given grace according to the measure of the gift of Christ.” (Ephesians 4:7)… Read More

“In like manner also, that women adorn themselves in modest apparel, with shamefacedness and sobriety; not with broided hair, or gold, or pearls, or costly array; but (which becometh women professing godliness) with good works.” (I Timothy 2:9-10) From the beginning of creation, God created man and “male and female created He them.” (Genesis 1:27) In specifically creating them differently, He gave them different forms and roles.

“And not only this; but when Rebecca also had conceived by one, by our father Isaac; (for the children being not yet born, neither having done any good or evil, that the purpose of God according to election might stand, not of works, but of Him that calleth;) It was said unto her, The elder shall serve the younger.

“There is no truer sign nor more alarming symptom of the decline of vital godliness than the want of love and union among those who profess the truth. If love to the brethren marks the dawn of spiritual life, the decay of that love most certainly denotes its decline. A house divided against itself cannot stand. A besieged city, if torn with internal faction, must fall before the enemy. Peace in the… Read More

“And I saw no temple therein.” (Revelation 21:22) We have read this morning from the inspired record a striking description of the city of God; the city of which we have heard, and read, and sung from our earliest childhood; but we have heard that it was far away above the skies; we have sung that it is among the stars; we have read in popular religious fiction that it is the… Read More

I realize, first of all, that this article may offend some, yet I hope my writing (if I am enabled by the Spirit) will not be weak and just pleasing to the natural flesh of those whom God has decreed for me to contact. God’s message from His Word is personal, and oftentimes, sharp and convicting. I desire that God would be pleased to bring tears of concern and repentance to all… Read More
Since an objective of this magazine is to defend the Cause of God and Truth as articulated by the Predestinarian Old School Baptists; and since a great number of readers have never heard of these people, then we trust none will be too offended with us if we do just that defend our faith in points of difference. A phenomenon we often experience is: a number of individuals speak and write critically… Read More
“Man’s goings are of the Lord: how can a man then understand his own way?” (Proverbs 20:24) Some may attempt to use this Scripture to justify oneself for his wickedness, wrong doings, etc. Or one may use this text as a shield or cloke for his faughts, sins, etc. But a quickened child of God understands the admonition, “As free, and not using your liberty for a cloke of maliciousness, but as… Read More

“Blessed are the peacemakers; for they shall be called the children of God” (Matthew 5:9) ———— It is wonderful to consider that the Lord blesses one to be a peacemaker. When one is blessed to that extent, he feels that peace within his soul. He is blessed with the indwelling Spirit of God within himself. “ . . . he shall receive of mine, and shall shew it unto you.” (John 16:14)… Read More

In the attributes of God and in various graces of the Spirit, comparative and contrasting attributes and graces are often paired together. Our God is a God of mercy, and a God of wrath. He is love, and possesses a perfect hatred (Psalm 139:22). So also, in the graces which a child of God experiences, where faith is; so is trust; where regeneration is, conversion follows; where true evangelical repentance is, so… Read More
I believe the Scriptures teach that all power is of God (Romans 13:1) and no man is able to resist the grace of God, and all the elect will believe and rejoice in the truth in due time. “All that the Father giveth me shall come to me; and him that cometh to me I will in no wise cast out.” (John 6:37) Let us consider this expression: “All that the Father… Read More

We believe the Scriptures teach that all of those for whom Jesus died shall be brought to the knowledge of the truth, and not one shall be lost. “For I came down from heaven, not to do mine own will, but the will of Him that sent me, And this is the Father’s will which hath sent me, that of all which He hath given me I should lose nothing, but should… Read More

Since we attempted to prove by the Scriptures the “Total Depravity”, one may ask the question: Since man by nature does not seek after the Lord, why does God save any? All we can say is that it pleased the Lord to save whom He will out of the fallen race, and leave the rest to perish. “(For the children being not yet born, neither having done any good or evil, that… Read More
“And one of the malefactors which were hanged railed on Him, saying, If thou be Christ, save thyself and us. But the other answering rebuked him, saying, Dost not thou fear God, seeing thou art in the same condemnation? And we indeed justly; for we receive the due reward of our deeds: but this man hath done nothing amiss. And he said unto Jesus, Lord, remember me when thou comest into thy… Read More

Much can and has been argued about the various aspects of the sovereignty of God. A new-born infant knows very little of this world in the first few months or years of its existence. Yet from birth the child learns of light, love, security, and trust. It also rapidly learns the many discomforts of Providence and the many disappointments and chastisements of loving parents. Prior to its birth, the child knows only… Read More
Does unregenerated man have the ability to seek after God and to do that which is acceptable and well pleasing in the sight of the Lord? By nature, does man desire to seek after righteousness or does he desire to travel in the ways of the world? What caused Moses to desire to suffer affliction with the children of God rather than to enjoy the pleasures of sin for a season? “By… Read More
Romans 2:5 But after thy hardness and impenitent heart treasurest up unto thy-self wrath against the day of wrath and revelation of the righteous judgment of God; Romans 2:6 who will render to every man according to his deeds: Romans 2:7 To them who by patient continuance in well doing seek for glory and honour and immortality, eternal life: Romans 2:8 But unto them that are contentious, and do not obey the… Read More
“Whom he did foreknow, he also did predestinate;” “and whom he did predestinate them he also glorified” etc. (Rom. 8:29, 30) This word “foreknowledge” is one of the deepest and most mysterious words throughout the whole of the Scriptures. The miser Tomline, the Arminian bishop, who passed his life in raking money together and in persecuting Calvinists, and who therefore was an idolator through love of money, and is a beloved head… Read More
Many people think that if a person’s religion will stand the crucible of death it must needs be a good one. Say they, “Give us a religion to die by”; which, as a test infallibly to try truth and falsehood in religion by, will not universally hold. I have been led to consider this by reading the triumphant and happy obituaries in the Methodist Magazine; and I am well persuaded that persons… Read More
How mysterious that the thorn, which is the emblem of the fall of man, should be laden with beauty, teeming with fragrance, abounding with endless profusion of scents and hues, embellishing as it were the whole clime of even uncultivated nature in the month of May! Rich and blooming, the hedge-rows, thorn-bushes, and lanes seem strewed as it were then in that month with flowered walls, clumps, and pictured lines of beauty… Read More
Among the peoples called “Baptists” many issues conflict in a manner to produce great diversity. Obviously, there is an unbridgeable gap between the doctrinal views of the Predestinarians and the theory of absolute freewillism held by most modern Baptists. Since the entirety of this magazine is predestinarian in contrast to that general theory, there is no need for a specific article refuting the whole scheme of freewillism. Predestinarian Baptists hold to both… Read More

“Draw me, we will run after thee” (Song of Solomon 1:4) “Come to Jesus. Come just as you are! Jesus is waiting! You must, indeed, you can come this very night,” purred the “evangelist.” Jesus therefore answered and said: “No man can come unto me, except it were given unto him of My Father “ (John 6:65). “Jesus said that “he that cometh to me,” replied the evangelist, “I will in no… Read More
“These that have turned the world upside down are come hither also.” (Acts 17:6) These words were spoken of Paul and Silas after having preached three sabbath days in the synagogue at Thessalonica. Paul’s preaching was exceeding troublesome. Acts 16:20. The doctrine of Christ when proclaimed by his chosen ministers is always offensive to the world and its different sects of carnal worshipers. It turns Arminianism upside down. As long as a… Read More
The elect of God do believe in the truth in due time. “As many as were ordained to eternal life believed.” (Acts 13:48) This Scripture proves that ALL of the elect shall believe the truth. The Lord blesses His people, or the elect, with repentance. “The goodness of God leadeth thee to repentance.” (Romans 2:4) “Him hath God exalted with His right hand to be a Prince and a Savior, for to… Read More

It is truly appalling the unconscionable nature of many professing Christian’s speech today. When they should be making an assiduous effort at living as close to Godliness as possible, they instead seem to be content to live as close to the world as possible. Showing no care to exercise caution at bridling the tongue, they routinely blurt out things like, “Oh My God,” which should never come effortlessly from the mouth of… Read More
“The king’s daughter is all glorious within: her clothing is of wrought gold.” (Psalm 45:13) The King’s daughter is all glorious within: — In this text we believe the King’s daughter has reference to the bride of Christ which is the church of the living God. Why and what causes her to be glorious within? This shows that love is within the heart, sanctified by the Spirit. This is true spiritual love… Read More

Preached in Grove Chapel, Camberwell, 1878 – By Thomas Bradbury____________________________________ “Then was Jesus led up of the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted of the devil.”(Matthew 4:1) There is not a spot trodden by our blessed Lord, during His pilgrimage here on earth, untrodden by those who hold fellowship with Him in His sufferings. The spots of the Redeemer’s sufferings are consecrated by the infallible teaching of the blessed Spirit in… Read More
Note: The following is edited from a personal letter written to a young believer on March 4, 1969, and drafted into an article format. By particular redemption we mean that Christ’s death was to redeem the elect in particular; or, that Christ’s atonement was limited to the elect only. It makes sense, too. Notice these three alternative positions advanced by John Owen: We know that only sin carries a man to hell,… Read More
To believe that Jesus Christ died, or tasted death, for the entire race of Adam is very natural to the Universalists, or Arminians. In fact such a theory is in all men’s nature; for I often find myself trying to ride the “do better horse,” but he invariably throws me. If I possess a new nature, the Lord created it in me in 1883; and since, if I have one vestige of… Read More
After reading several preachers’ views on divorce and remarriage – their trying to justify receiving adulterous people into the fellowship of, and retaining them, in the church – I feel led to write about what constitutes marriage, and the difference between adultery and fornication. And to see if the church can Scripturally receive and retain adultery in her fellowship. It is appalling when the majority of elders, deacons, and members of Primitive… Read More
We are requested by a correspondent to give our views on Romans 7: 2-3. “For the woman which hath an husband is bound by the law to her husband so long as he liveth; but if the husband be dead, she is loosed from the law of her husband. So then, if while her husband liveth, she be married to another man, she shall be called an adulteress; but if her husband… Read More
We intimated on the wrapper of our last October Number that it was in our mind to take up the above subject, as involving considerations hidden from the eyes of men of one idea, who only know what they have been taught by the precept of men, and as having also an important bearing on many points of divine truth. This pledge, therefore, we shall now attempt to redeem. Were it a… Read More
