The Disappearance of Self in the Vision That God is All!
I have read and studied many things on the subject of holiness, as well as the subject of humility. But in all honesty I have yet to read or hear anything that speaks and paints the issue in the most distinct of colors than the way Andrew Murray has done in this short piece. Reading the following article has reminded me and revealed to my eyes a greater vision of how wanting my soul is of ...

From a Thousand Sinners, What Made You Differ?
For who sees anything different in you? What do you have that you did not receive? If then you received it, why do you boast as if you did not receive it? (1 Corinthians 4:7) To you dear Christian with a callous heart, to you unfeeling person for the state of souls and the eternal destination of those a step from hell, why do you feel so little for those whom God's wrath abides? Why is ...

Though a Man is Sincere Should We Ignore His Sins?
...If zeal is true, it will be joined to a deep humility. A truly zealous man will be the last to discover the greatness of his own attainments. All that he is and does will fall immensely short of his own desires, that he will be filled with a sense of his own weakness and be ...

Meditations on Depravity Increases Love & Humility
"And you hath he quickened, who were dead in trespasses and sins; wherein in time past, ye walked according to the course of this world, according to he prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience; among whom also we all had our conversation in times past, in the lusts of the flesh, fulfilling the desires of our flesh and of the mind; and were by ...

“I Have Christ, What Want I More?”
A city missionary in London was called to an old tenement building, a lady was dying and in the last stages of disease the room was tiny and cold and the woman was lying on the floor. This missionary tried to help this lady and asked if there was anything she wanted and this is what she said, I have all I really need, I have Jesus Christ. Well the man never forgot it, and ...

If I Should Suffer, Go Unclothed, and be in Poverty. . .
Heavenly Father, if I should suffer need, and go unclothed, and be in poverty, make my heart prize Thy love, know it, be constrained by it, though I be denied all blessings. It is Thy mercy to afflict and try me with wants, for by these trials I see my sins, and desire severance from them. Let me willingly accept misery, sorrows, temptations, if I can thereby feel sin as the greatest evil, and be ...

Why is it?!—No Fear of God.
Why is it that, today, the masses are so utterly unconcerned about spiritual and eternal things, and that they are lovers of pleasure more than lovers of God? Why is it that even on the battlefields multitudes were so indifferent to their soul's welfare? Why is it that defiance of Heaven is becoming more open, more blatant, more daring? The answer is, Because "There is no fear of God before their eyes" (Rom. 3:18). Again; why ...

I Count All Things to be Loss. . .
I never realized how beautiful the letter to the Philippians was 'till I heard Pastor Jim preach from it. Finally, by the Spirit of God, it makes so much sense. Not only does it make sense, but it's beauty is so grand and glorious, the message of the Gospel! Why, oh, why, to a wretch like me? All glory and honor to the sovereign God of the universe for the depths, heights, and the extents ...
