I. Introduction 1. This study is a basic survey of Biblical interpretation and is not intended to be exhaustive. It has been designed for the average or beginning Bible student and, therefore, some matters of a more advanced nature have not been included. 2. As evangelicals, it is not enough to mere...

The Three Spheres of Future Glory. THERE is still something more to learn concerning the dispensations before we can rightly understand the unique position and wonderful teaching of the later Pauline Epistles written from the prison in Rome. These dispensations are commonly spoken of as: two, the ol... Read More

In reading Matt. 1, 2, we learn, among other things, how the word of prophecy ought to be used; but we see also, how the carnal intellect treats it; and thus it furnishes a sound and healthful word to us, when we set ourselves down for a meditation on the prophetic Scriptures; for we are both guided...

"The important thing is having Jesus in the glory as our hope; a very subordinate thing, the question when shall we be in the glory with Him.
