At the day of judgment, the bodies of the wicked, being raised out of their graves, shall be sentenced, together with their souls, to unspeakable torments and the vengeance of God’s righteous displeasure, with the devil and his angels, for ever and ever. Daniel 12:2 Matthew 10:28 Matthew 13:38-42 Matthew 25:41 Matthew 25:46 John 5:29 Revelation 20:11-15 Revelation 21:8 By William Gadsby
“He giveth power to the faint; and to [them that have] no might he increaseth strength.” (Isaiah 40:29) The Lord’s people are often in the state that they have no might. All their power seems exhausted, and their strength completely drained away — sin appears to have gotten the mastery over them — and they feel as if they had neither will nor ability to run the race set before them, or… Read More
“And I will give them an heart to know Me, that I am the LORD: and they shall be My people, and I will be their God: for they shall return unto Me with their whole heart.” (Jeremiah 24:7) Our experience of salvation, when applied by the power of the Holy Spirit in the new birth, is infinitely more than a moral reformation or the mere acquiring of knowledge. It is a… Read More
“For what the law could not do, in that it was weak through the flesh, God sending His own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and for sin, condemned sin in the flesh:…” (Romans 8:3) To say the preaching of the law could set a sinner free from sin is the equivalent of preaching “Thou shalt not kill” to a convicted murderer on death row. He is already guilty of the… Read More

For when we were in the flesh, the motions of sins, which were by the law, did work in our members to bring forth fruit unto death.” (Romans 7:4-5) ___________________________ “When we… Read More

“Blessed is the man whom thou chastenest, O LORD, and teachest him out of thy law; That thou mayest give him rest from the days of adversity, until the pit be digged for the wicked.” (Psalm 94:12-13) —————————— What a different estimate men form of blessedness and happiness, from that which God has declared in his word to be such! If we listen to the opinions of men about happiness, would not… Read More
Preached at Providence Chapel, London, on July 28, 1850, by J. C. Philpot —————————— “And when they came to Marah, they could not drink of the waters of Marah, for they were bitter: therefore the name of it was called Marah.

Every believer rejoices in the glorious truth that our sins were imputed to Christ and His righteousness has been imputed to us. Daniel prophesied of the coming of the Savior and said of Him, “Messiah shall be cut off, but not for Himself” (Daniel 9:25). The meaning is that the promised Redeemer would die for sins which were not His own except in the sense that they were imputed to Him. Christ… Read More
We often know the theory of the gospel, before we know the experience of the gospel. We often receive the doctrines of grace into our judgment, before we receive the grace of the doctrines into our soul. We therefore need to be brought down, humbled, tried, stripped of every prop — that the gospel may be to us more than a sound, more than a name, more than a theory, more than… Read More

The world He suffered to redeem: For all He hath the atonement made; For those that will not come to Him The ransom of His life was paid! O for a trumpet voice On all the world to call! To bid their hearts rejoice In Him who died for all! For all my Lord was crucified, For all, for all my Saviour died! O let Thy love my heart constrain, Thy love… Read More

“And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus: That in the ages to come he might shew the exceeding riches of his grace in his kindness toward us through Christ Jesus.” (Ephesians 2:6-7) —————————— How precious is the Word of God? And we would say without any contradict: There is no book like the Bible. I feel that the apostle is lifted up… Read More
The word justification, in the Bible, sometimes means the justification of persons. Sometimes it means the justification of actions. Sometimes it means the justification of both the persons and the actions. The word itself is a form of the word translated as right or righteous or righteousness. Justification, then, has to do with a person being made righteous or declared righteous. In the sense of being made righteous, justification is legal or… Read More

As from the cross flows all salvation, so from the cross flows all sanctification. What have not men done, to make themselves holy; and by this means render themselves, as they have thought, acceptable to God! What tortures of body, what fastings, scourgings, self-imposed penances to sanctify their sinful nature, and conform their rebellious flesh to the holiness demanded by the law! And with what success? They have landed either in self-righteousness… Read More
Among those branches of divine truth which, without special teaching, we cannot enter into, is, that of the two natures in a believer. And yet, though every child of God must in all ages have been experimentally acquainted with the inward conflict between flesh and spirit, nature and grace; and though authors innumerable have written on such subjects as sanctification, the trial of faith, the strength of grace, the power of sin,… Read More
This is an important New Testament word, and is found six times in the epistles. The first part of the word is “medi” which means between or middle. A number of other words have the same origin. For example: when we say someone is of medium height we mean they are middle-sized, not tall or short. The media is a word to describe the means by which communications are sent between people….

Jesus affirmed the reality (historicity) of the following people and events, often the targets of most sceptical and liberal mockery: Matthew 19:3-6, Mark 10:5-9 – God created Adam and Eve as the first man and woman, “from the beginning of the creation;” and this was the basis for marriage. Luke 11:51 – Abel. Matthew 24:37-39; Luke 17:26-27 – Noah and the Flood. John 8:56-58 – Abraham. Matthew 10:15; Matthew 11:23-24; Luke 10:12… Read More

But when he Uzziah was strong, his heart was lifted up to his destruction: for he transgressed against the LORD his God, and went into the temple of the LORD to burn incense upon the altar of incense. 2 Chronicles 26:16 The seriousness of King Uzziah’s sin is due to the fact that the priestly office he dared to fulfill was a foreshadowing of Christ in His priestly office as the one… Read More
“My God! My God! why hast Thou forsaken Me?” (Matthew 27:46) The Evangelist adds, that Jesus cried again, with a loud voice. But why with a loud voice?

When God declares a sinner righteous in His own view based on the righteousness of Christ imputed (charged, accounted) to that sinner, make no mistake, it is a REAL justification, a REAL righteousness, and a REAL transaction.
