In the Sermon on the Mount, Jesus Christ said, "Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.” What might that have meant to His first audience on that day? They certainly had a different definition of what it meant to be poor, compared to ourselves. Once we understand what they would have thought about financial poverty, we'll be in a good place to think about its parallel: spiritual poverty. This encouraging message of Gospel invitation will be a help to your own spirit.

1. The Opening Cry from the Cross Psalm 22:1 “My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?” Fulfillment: Jesus quotes this exact verse while hanging on the cross: Matthew 27:46 Mark 15:34 This is not despair—it is Jesus identifying Himself as the subject of Psalm 22, directing all witnesses to the prophecy being fulfilled before their eyes. 2. Public Mockery and Ridicule Psalm 22:6–8 “I am a worm, and no man; a reproach of men, and despised of the people. All they that see me laugh me to scorn: they shoot out the lip, they shake the head, saying, He trusted on the LORD that he would...

“PROGRESSIVE GLORIFICATION?” booklet is a compact polemic + study-aid that does three things in order: Puts the phrase “progressive glorification” on trial. The foreword argues that the phrase can sound like gospel brightness while functioning as a ladder that turns the Christian life into “climb higher, shine brighter, prove more,” shifting assurance from Christ to my progress. It insists 2 Cor. 3:18 is a window (behold Christ) rather than a scoreboard (measure yourself). Presents Charles Leiter’s “Law of Christ” material, then critiques it from an Old School Baptist ...

The doctrine of the One New Man stands at the very heart of the New Testament revelation of salvation, redemption, and God’s eternal purpose in Christ. It is not a secondary theme, nor merely a theological metaphor, but a foundational truth that explains what God has accomplished through the cross, what the Church truly is, and where history itself is moving. When Scripture speaks of the one new man, it is revealing God’s answer to humanity’s deepest problem—not merely individual sin, but division: division between God and man, between Jew and Gentile, between peoples, nations, and ...

According to a book from 2020, “non-causative predestination” is basically a modern guardrail phrase: it tries to protect two claims the author insists Scripture teaches plainly—God’s sovereignty over all events and God’s holiness as “not the moral author of sin”—without letting human “logic” bully the Bible into choosing only one of them. The Foreword’s core complaint is that many controversies come from confusing mystery with contradiction. A contradiction would be God being holy and unholy “in the same sense.” Mystery is God being “sovereign over all events”...

The doctrine of the atonement lies at the heart of the Christian faith. In this book, the doctrine is examined through the lens of the social world of the first century in order to contextualize it, and answer objections to the doctrine of the atonement.

One of the most subtle and destructive dangers facing Christians throughout history is not open rebellion against Christ, but a gradual return to law-based thinking after having been set free by grace. Scripture consistently warns that bondage does not always enter the Church through immorality or unbelief, but often through misplaced zeal for righteousness that quietly shifts confidence away from Christ and back onto human performance. The apostle Paul recognized this danger early in the life of the Church, which is why so much of the New Testament is devoted not merely to preaching ...

“God’s Kind” here does not mean “God is kind,” even though He certainly is. Rather, it refers to God’s species or children. Using “God’s Kind” to expound on the Kingdom of God is new and bold. The hope is to jolt readers to think outside the “Kingdom of God box,” which has been rigidly constructed within the various perspectives of major theological schools and has continued to divide Christians. Satan’s attack on God’s kind is focused on this truism spoken by Jesus: “Every kingdom divided against itself is laid waste, and a divided household falls” (Luke 11:...

This book is a compact, historically anchored argument that treats Sunday School less as a neutral “church activity” and more as a modern institution with a theology baked into its machinery. It opens with a brief foreword framing the piece as a continuation of (and response to) ongoing criticism of the Old School Baptist position. In the first movement, Sunday School is defined in its modern, recognizable form—an age-graded, volunteer-run “learning hour”—but its origins are located in late–late-18th-century social conditions: industrial poverty, child labor, and a push for ...

In Scripture, “witness” and “testimony” are truth-terms, not technique-terms. A witness gives honest attestation to reality—Christ’s person and work—and the believer’s life is meant to function as corroborating evidence, not as a staged performance. Modern usage often drifts: “witnessing” becomes a program (“going witnessing”) and slides into scripts, pressure tactics, and “closing the deal,” while “testimony” can become a stylized personal story that subtly shifts the center from Christ to the speaker. Harris’s The Witnessing Church (1837) represents an ...

The book argues that “try-hard Christianity” misunderstands both holiness and the function of biblical exhortations by turning the Christian life into a cooperative project in which our effort helps make us holier before God. In contrast, the Absoluter wing of Old School Baptists insists that all the elect are equally and immutably holy in Christ: sanctification, as to standing, is eternal in election, accomplished once-for-all in Christ’s offering, and applied by the Spirit in regeneration, not a moral ladder the believer climbs. New School / Missionary Baptists maintain a classic ...

Romans 8:31-39 is a reminder of what the Lord Jesus has done. It is a picture of the grace of God providing all we need for salvation and a right relationship with God. It is about a God whgo has invested much in the lives of His children and who will do all He can to keep them. It portrays salvation from God's perspective. Paul's focus in these verses is not about our commitment to God but rather about His commitment to us. In this brief study of Romans 8:31-39 you will see something of the commitment of God to you and to keeping you in the salvation His Son gave His life to accomplish.

The title “Son of Man” is one of the most theologically rich and carefully chosen titles Jesus uses for Himself in the New Testament. Far from meaning merely “a human being,” it draws together humanity, suffering, authority, judgment, and eternal kingship into a single biblical framework that spans both Testaments.

Il est fréquent d’entendre les gens parler de santé, de richesse et de prospérité comme étant des signes de la bénédiction de Dieu. Cependant, Jésus a dit que ce sont les pauvres, les persécutés et les personnes qui souffrent qui sont bénis. Dans ce petit livre, R. C. Sproul examine une section bien appréciée du Nouveau Testament appelée les « béatitudes ». Il utilise les célèbres paroles prononcées par Jésus au début du sermon sur la montagne pour expliquer que la vraie bénédiction n’est possible qu’en saisissant la grâce de Dieu en Jésus-Christ.

King Josiah inherited a kingdom in ruin and under the judgment of God. He heard a message of destruction from prophets and changed his ways, but quickly found out sincere faith is not enough! While cleaning up his kingdom and placing the temple in order, the workers discovered the Book of the Law which told Josiah how to worship before God. When he humbled himself to God and His Word, he was spared the destruction that was coming.

This book is about salvation by God’s grace. If you were to ask the average Christian if he believed in salvation by grace, most would respond with an emphatic, “Yes.” I know, because I have asked people from many Christian faiths, and each response has been in the affirmative. Why wouldn’t it be?
