THE DOCTRINE OF REVELATION Chapter 12 THE HOLY BIBLE MORE UNIQUE CHARACTERISTICS—1. 1. Its doctrine. Probably that heading would be more intelligible unto most of our readers had we employed the plural number. As a matter of fact, it is at this very point that its uniqueness first appears. Error is ... Lee mas

THE DOCTRINE OF REVELATION Chapter 8 THE HOLY BIBLE DECLARES IT COMES FROM GOD HIMSELF We have presented a portion of that abundant evidence which makes it unmistakably manifest that God has given us a clear revelation of Himself in creation, in the constitution of man (physical, mental, and moral),...

The Doctrine of Sanctification 3. ITS NECESSITY It is our earnest desire to write this article not in a theological or merely abstract way, but in a practical manner: in such a strain that it may please the Lord to speak through it to our needy hearts and search our torpid consciences.

THE HOLY SPIRIT Chapter 27 The Spirit Transforming 2 Corinthians 3:18 Just as there are certain verses in the Old Testament and the Gospels which give us a miniature of the redemptive work of Christ for God’s people—such, for example, as Isaiah 53:5 and John 3:16—so in the Epistles there are some co...
