Stephen The first Martyr to be Recorded in Scripture
And the saying pleased the whole multitude: and they chose Stephen, a man full of faith and of the Holy Ghost, and Philip, and Prochorus, and Nicanor, and Timon, and Parmenas, and Nicolas a proselyte of Antioch:
And Stephen, full of faith and power, did great wonders and miracles among the people.
Then there arose certain of the synagogue, which is called the synagogue of the Libertines, and Cyrenians, and Alexandrians, and of them of Cilicia and of Asia, disputing with Stephen.
And they stoned Stephen, [as he was] calling upon God, and saying, Lord Jesus, receive my spirit.
And devout men carried Stephen to his burial, and made great lamentation [grieved] over him.
Now they which were scattered abroad upon the persecution that arose about Stephen travelled as far as Phenice, and Cyprus, and Antioch, preaching the word to none but unto the Jews only.
and when the blood of thy martyr Stephen was shed, I , [The Apostle Paul] also was standing by, and consenting unto his death, and kept the raiment [clothes] of them that slew him.
Acts 7:60
Authorized (King James) Version
60 And he [Stephen] kneeled down, and cried with a loud voice, Lord, lay not this sin to their charge.[forgive them for they know what they do] And when he had said this, he fell asleep [died and went to Heaven forever.]

All Bible versions that are NOT translated from the Textus Receptus [The (traditional) Received Greek Text] include variant readings that diminish the full expressions of glory and the most Holy reverence due to the Omnipotent, Almighty GOD. He preserves and protects its immutably in the 1769 Edition of the 1611 King James Version Bible KJV. This version is known as the Authorized King James Version AKJV and the Authorized Version AV. ALL GLORY is due and must be given to the Omnipotent and Omniscient LORD of ALL.
The Geneva Bible was also translated from the Greek Textus Receptus including comments favorable to the Protestant Reformation from inspired, devoted, faithful Christian men of GOD; Puritan Believers known to be beyond reproach.
This Bible was first brought to Plymouth Massachusetts in the American Colonies by the Puritan Pilgrims guided by Captain Christopher Jones’s on the Mayflower sailing ship in 1620. A 1592 Edition of the Geneva Bible that belonging to a Mayflower passenger and the Governor of the Plymouth Colony (Later to become the State of Massachusetts) by William Bradford and is on display at the Pilgrim Hall Museum in Plymouth, Massachusetts, the oldest continuously operating public museum in the United States.
The traditional Textus Receptus [Received Greek Text] unlike any other Greek Text was taken from more than 5,321 original Majority Greek Manuscripts MT that agree 98% with one another. Other variant readings are translations invented by either Westcott and Hort or Nestle and Aland. These fabricated Greek Texts were translated from only a handful [45] of Majority Text Manuscripts MT and lack the trustworthiness of the inspired 1769 [1611] King James Version, KJV or the Geneva Bible and are the only two translations of the traditional, reliable, inspired, [GOD BREATHED] immutable and providentially and divinely protected Textus Receptus.

Bridge to Babylon The 1881 Textual Criticism Controversy
(1) URL: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vIC5rUbs_-E&t=9s
(169 mins.)
The definitive and historical video documentary Bridge to Babylon (URL above) presents evidence that tracks the explosion of more than 100 new Critical Text editions of English translations of the Bible. The attempts to change the Bible by adding to, or taking away from the 1769 edition of the King James Version [KJV] of the Holy Bible will not prevail because GOD Himself preserves and protects His inspired [God Breathed, Spoken] , inerrant, immutable [incapability of any change] and infallible [incapable of error] Holy Word from any and all heresy, blasphemy, confusion , error, additions to, or subtractions from the WORD of GOD. The traditional text founded from the Greek Textus Receptus accounts for more editions and sales than any other Greek text or edition of the Holy Bible worldwide.

BCE/CE vs. BC/AD Is there a difference?
defend the Truth. Won’t you?
*A.D. does NOT mean “After Death” as many mistakenly believe. It is Latin for Anno Domini, a phrase adopted into English usage that means “Year of [the] Lord”. The complete original phrase "anno Domini nostri Jesu Christi" means "in the year of our Lord Jesus Christ”. A.D. together with B.C. Before Christ divides all history into before and after the birth of Jesus the Christ [Messiah].

Can DAILYSPURGEON be trusted? Is it trustworthy?
Is it of God?
YES, it can! Yes, it is! Here’s why.
Beloved ones, don’t be believing every spirit [everyone or !everything] you hear but be testing the spirit [voice] whether it is of God: because many false prophets have gone [come] out into the world. Here’s how you know the Spirit of God: Every spirit [voice] that confesses [avows] that Jesus Christ is come [is here] in the flesh, having come[who came] out of God, is of God: and every spirit that confesses not [doesn’t audibly avow] that Jesus Christ is come [is here] in the flesh is not of God: and this is that spirit of antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world.
Therefore I do audibly confess, that Jesus Christ is come [is here] in the flesh.
[All translations of the Bible using Greek translations other than the traditional and faithful Textus Receptus do not contain the Greek word “ictin”. This word means “is” in English] and its exclusion causes the meaning of its English equivalent, “is here” to change from “is” come” [is here] to “has” come”.
This error is self-evident because non-believers, false prophets, atheists and even heretics can, and frequently do, affirm that Jesus Christ “has come” [in the flesh].
While this is a true statement, when taken at face value, the meaning of “has come” is clearly not the same as “is here”. When has come is the meaning the scriptural test to discern whether the words being analyzed are from the Spirit of God or the spirit of antichrist is completely negated.
One of the most well documented facts in all history of humanity is that Jesus Christ [The Anointed Messiah] “has” come in the flesh. However, the question of much greater importance, is not whether the spirit [a spoken or written word] confesses that Jesus Christ “has come” in the flesh but, whether this confession affirms that Jesus Christ, “is come” [is here], in the flesh.
Now, please Compare and consider [Meditate upon] this scripture with other scriptre that relates to it, other relative scripture: Precept upon precept, Line upon line…
Isaiah 28:10-14
_________________________________________
For we are members of his body, of his flesh, and of his bones. 31 For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall be joined unto his wife, and they two shall be one flesh.
32 This is a great mystery: but I [The Apostle Paul] speak concerning Christ and the church. [The body and Bride of CHRIST]
“I speak concerning Christ and the church.” [the fleshly embodiment, here and now, of the body of Christ]. Because followers of Jesus Christ are members of the incarnate Body of Christ [The Church] I affirm and avow that Jesus Christ is here
[Not “Has come”] in the flesh.

Which Bible Is The Best? (57 min.) David Hocking
THE HOLY WORD of GOD is :
Immutable, [unchanging and, unable to mutate or be changed],
Inspired, [God breathed, spoken],
Infallible,[Incapable of failing]
Inerrant [Without error]
Self-Authenticating [The Bible is considered to be self-authenticating because proponents who believe it to be so know it contains inherent divine qualities—Such qualities are unity, majesty, power, and internal consistency—that reveal its divine origin, that convinces readers of its truth without relying on external historical proof or church testimony.
This concept, championed by the Reformation, know that the Holy Spirit illuminate:
the "heavenliness of its matter," the "efficacy of its doctrine," and the "majesty of its style" within the text itself, allowing God's Word to be received directly, the same way as seeing God's glory in Christ.]
Providentially Protected and Preserved
Psalm 12:6-7: 6 The words of the Lord are pure words:
as silver tried in a furnace of earth, purified seven times.
7 Thou shalt keep them [Thy Words] , O Lord, thou shalt preserve them [Thy Words] from this generation for ever. (AKJV).
Isaiah 40:8: 8 The grass withereth, [withers] the flower fadeth [fades] :but the word of our God shall stand for ever. (AKJV).
Matthew 5:18: 18 For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled. (AKJV).
Matthew 24:35: 35 Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away. (AKJV).
1 Peter 1:23: 23 being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the word of God, which liveth and abideth for ever. (AKJV).
1 Peter 1:25: 25 but the word of the Lord endureth for ever. And this is the word which by the gospel is preached unto you. (AKJV).
Psalm 119:89: 89 For ever, O Lord, thy word is settled in heaven, Psalm 119:89). (AKJV).
The Authorized King James Version (AKJV) also known as The Authorized Version (AV) and The Geneva Bible are faithful English Translations from the preeminent, [surpassing all others] and traditional Greek of the Textus Receptus [Received Text] that self-authenticate and are superior to all Critical Text translations or editions as to their authentic divine inspiration and fidelity from The Almighty andTriune GOD.
John 1:1: 1In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
_____________________________________________________
Which Bible Is The Best? (57 min.) David Hocking
(8 min.) The problem behind Bible translations is not English. The issue is what Greek text was being used. I believe the true Author is The Holy Spirit. I believe this is the Word of God… We need to understand that The word of GOD in and of itself is power. Power to change your life and through the work of the Holy Spirit can produce the New Birth. We are born again of an incorruptible seed of the Word of God which liveth and abideth forever.
- David Hocking
John 1:1-3 1In the beginning was he Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2The same was in he beginning with God. 3 all things were made by him; and without him was not anything made that was made.
(AKJV) The Authorized Version AKJV Translation was faithfully translated by fully consecrated, and dedicated, preeminent linguists, language scholars who were fully devoted followers of The Lord Jesus Christ. The 1611 King James translation is from the inerrant, inspired and immutable Textus Receptus [Received Text]:
Psalm 119:89 ל (Lamed) Forever, O Lord, thy word is settled in heaven.
“Thy Word” is The Inspired and Ultimate Stare Decisis [The Latin phrase in Legal jargon that establishes the principle of “Legal Precedence” means to stand by things decided, and with reference to Holy Scripture, to uphold all things God-Breathed [Inspired] and therefore eternally and immutably decided]
4:1 Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world. 2 Hereby know ye the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesseth [says] that Jesus Christ is come [is here] in the flesh is of God: 3 and every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not of God: and this is that spirit of antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world.
Therefore, I now confess that “Jesus Christ is here in the flesh.”
[All other English translations of the Bible that use Greek manuscripts other than the Textus Receptus erroneously renders the English translation “Has come”.
This Translation error is because inferior Greek manuscripts do not include the Greek word “ictin” (This is The Greek word for is that is found only in the Majority Text of the Textus Receptus) and therefore the failure to correctly translate “ictin” [Is Here] into English.
The Authorized King James Version AKJV also known as The Authorized Version AV and the Geneva Bible stand alone in making and giving the correct translation: “is here”.
This error: “has come” is self-evident, because non-believers, false prophets and even heretics can, and sometimes will, make the confession that He “has come” in the flesh. This is no surprise because the birth of Jesus Christ is the most well documented fact in all of recorded history. Indeed, it is a true and factual statement that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh. Yet, while this is, a true and factual statement, the meaning in scripture has now been erroneously changed. The new and erroneous meaning is that now even if He “has come” in the flesh the confession that JESUS CHRIST IS HERE IN THE FLESH is still impossible for THE SPIRIT OF ANTICHRIST to make. Without it, Don’t believe what it says.
NEITHER does it provide for the test for believers to discern whether a spirit [voice or written words being read or heard] are either from God or from antichrist. It is true that Jesus Christ “has come” in the flesh, but it’s essential and of the utmost importance, that the confession that Jesus Christ, “IS HERE IN THE FLESH” Be confessed [be spoken audibly.]
________________________________________________________
By Reading, comparing and meditating on any specific Scripture together with other relevant Scriptures, God’s Word clarifies and self-authenticates:
Therefore we must study:
1 John 4:1-3 with Ephesians 5:30-32
Authorized (King James) Version
1 Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world. 2 Hereby know ye the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesseth that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is of God: 3 and every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not of God: and this is that spirit of antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world.
30: for we are members of his [Jesus Christs’] body, of his flesh, and of his bones. 31 For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall be joined unto his wife, and they two shall be one flesh. 32 This is a great mystery: but I speak concerning Christ and His bride the church.
[We are members of His body, flesh and bones, one flesh with Him, as His bride the church].
He was born of a virgin 2026 years ago, and HE lives today,
and He is coming soon for His bride; The Church.
"And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness:
God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit,
believed on in the world, received up into glory. "1 Timothy 3:16

It should be the desire of every born-again believer to worship God with all their heart, soul, mind and strength, in Spirit and in truth.
“Study to show yourself approved unto God, a worker that needs not be ashamed, rightly dividing [accurately sharing] the word of truth.” 2 Timothy 2:15
To this end, Heavenly Father, we pray that You will bless all who visit this website and bring many to confess the Lord Jesus Christ as their Savior and Lord. We ask this in Jesus’ name, Amen.
This Website does not replace nor can it be a substitute for the in-person, personal assembling of ourselves together. Hebrews 10:23-27
Rather, the Website’s purpose is to save lost sinners and to teach and encourage believers through God’s Word and prayer to become fully devoted followers of Jesus Christ [The Anointed Messiah] in personal discipleship an00d worship of the Lord Jesus as we are being conformed to His very image.
“For whom God did foreknow he did also predestinate to be conformed to the image of his son…” Romans 8:29
We are, instructed in the Word of GOD to assemble, praise and worship God. Thus, we must assemble and worship the Lord Jesus Christ and exhort [encourage] and provoke one another to do good works.
Such worship may take place through, congregational singing of sacred hymns and spiritual songs, reading, preaching and obeying God’s Word, sharing Christian love and fellowship, agreeing together with specific public prayer requests, and reading and exhorting one another in the Word, to provoke one another to love and serve and bear witness with one another in the Holy Ghost.
Admonition: Online streaming does not satisfy personal interaction or the warm fellowship of in-person assemblies of brothers and sisters who are in Christ Jesus. Electronic media cannot substitute for the warm inter-personal love, fellowship, commitment, and compassion, nor does it provide for a kind and comforting touch or embrace of another believer. e.g. Laying on of hands, 1 Timothy 4:14; the right hands of Christian fellowship, Galatians 2:9; or an embrace, Acts 20:1; or greeting with a holy kiss,
We give thanks to the Lord, for DailySpurgeon.com and pray that it will continue to be an instrumentality to build up fully devoted followers of the Lord Jesus Christ. These followers will be taught to be disciples themselves and will then teach others to be disciples. (Fully devoted followers of The Lord Jesus, The Christ [The Anointed Messiah]. )
We pray that you will also be a radiant inspired instrumentality of God to share the good news of Jesus Christ with every one, encouraging them to become the very image of Jesus Christ.
This ministry was begun as daily e-mails of Faith’s Checkbook by Charles H. Spurgeon were sent to Jon Edward Riley. Jon shared these messages with others and soon over 300 were added to the mailing list through his witness as he witnessed and sharing his testimony with them.
Jon was called home by his loving Father in Heaven on January 16, 2021 leaving a legacy of this Website to minister to all who will benefit in this labor of Love to the glorify God and His Eternal Kingdom. ALL Glory belongs to God, alone.
Jon is honored; giving honor to whom honor is due. Romans 13:7
We pray that many will be born again, challenged, encouraged, and built-up to become fully devoted followers of the Lord Jesus Christ and be conformed to His image; that they might be the firstborn among many brethren. Romans 8:28-29.

Jon loved to say, “I’m a blood-bought, born-again Child of God!” to anyone he happened to meet or to anyone who would listen.
… Jon’s testimony lives on from one who, by grace, through faith was forever accepted in the Beloved; who’s loving ways brought the good news of Jesus to many. and one who is now present with the LORD in glory forever. One who, one day, we’ll meet again.
Amen.
Jon would sometimes just sing-out some of the following songs on the way to church, or sometimes just singing along with the Elvis Gospel CD that was always in our F-150’s CD player while riding with his Dad or,
Best of all, when an inspired, spontaneous praise from the Lord would just pop out from his joyful, creative, redeemed and loving heart.
Some Songs Jon Loved to Sing:
I Love You Lord by the Gaither choir
I Love You Lord Universal Music Group
I LOVE You Lord by Jared Reynolds
Where No One Stands Alone Gaither Vocal Band
Lead Me & Rock-a My Soul by Elvis and friends
He Knows Just What I Need by Elvis
How Great Thou Art with Elvis
Lead Me & Rock-a My Soul Elvis and friends
Lead Me, Guide Me by Elvis
It Is No Secret by Elvis written by Stuart Hamblen
The following recordings were discovered several months after Jon was called home on January 16th 2021. It’s such a blessing, to hear Elvis sing the Gospel message in song but, of course, it doesn’t compare with the Glory of being in the actual presence of the LORD.
LIFE by Elvis
*I Can Only Imagine being present with the LORD, or hearing the completed song the Lord completed with Jon when he arrived; a song known only to the Lord, to Jon and the few who heard Jon sing it here. Lyrics remembered from him singing: "See my Jesus, Walkin' on duh Waduh"… an original, inspired song from our beloved Jon, himself a true and renown original.
* Click and sing:
I CAN ONLY IMAGINE with Wynonna Judd.
LOVE WITHOUT END, AMEN (A Father’s Love) by George Strait honoring George H.W. Bush (41st President) A favorite song of the President.
It’s also my sincere message of love to all my children, grand-children and great grand-children and all loved ones.
…Jon would always say “Later”; [as in, see-ya later] instead of “good bye”. It was the only farewell greeting he would ever use when parting company with a friend; and, everyone was Jon’s friend.
… He would never say “good-bye”.
Now, as we remember the sound of him saying “Later”, it rings true in a new and deeper meaning and it brings a joy and comfort to the hearts of those whom he loved so well; those who love him still and will forever more.
… and how much sweeter to us now, are the promises in these two Hymns:
’TILL WE MEET AGAIN. (sing along, won’t you?)

God Appeals to Reason Isaiah 30:15-21 with Dr. Peter Masters
Before conversion, the claims of God mean nothing to us, but when God's Word speaks to our hearts, [by the Holy Spirit] the challenge becomes inescapable [and Irresistible ]. Self-searching begins, and the kindness of God's forgiving love is grasped as never before. Here is God's reasoning with souls.

Christ Prepares His Church
The call of the disciples, their unique role, and the care and patience of Christ in their training. Then the preparation of the church for extreme and persistent opposition, the reasons why demons were cast out, the unpardonable sin, and the supreme mark of true conversion.
Dr Peter Masters | 11:00am | December 2022
Dr Peter Masters 6:30 pm | December 2022
The goodness of God is fully demonstrated in the promises He makes in the Bible. That the Creator and Sovereign God should deign to give promises to us is amazing. Here are the major promises, how Christ makes them possible, and how we receive them.

Sanctify Them Through Thy Truth John 17:17 Dr. Peter Masters, Pastor
Sanctification (purification, consecration and commitment) by the Word is the will of Christ for His own, and here we turn to the first three of the Ten Commandments to challenge our souls. How should these be applied today in our lives and churches?
Closeness to Christ 2 Timothy 2:10-12 Dr. Peter Masters
In this hostile world, believers cannot live successfully and fruitfully without Christ being with their spirits. Here is why the soul is also called the spirit, and what it means for Christ to be with our spirit. Examples and counsels for securing His nearness.

Christians are called to proclaim the Gospel of Jesus Christ, but in our day there is confusion about the content of the Gospel.

The Phenomenon of Love Isaiah 63.7 Dr. Peter Masters
The nature and scope of human love is impressive, but Divine love, made visible in history and, supremely in the atoning sacrifice of Christ, is limitless, freely bestowed and certain toward all who find Him. Here are the 'loving-kindnesses of the Lord' they experience.
Living for the Flesh or for the Spirit Romans 8.5-6 Dr. Peter Masters
There are two classes of people in the Bible, those who focus on 'the flesh', and those who relate to the Spirit. Here are the characteristics and goals of each, and how God can free us from the captivity of flesh to know communion with Himself.
Mutual Debts in Marriage 1 Corinthians 7:3 Dr. Peter Masters 15 January 2012
A key word has slipped out of some modern translations – the marital debt of benevolence, meaning goodwill and kind benefits. Here are seven debts each has to the other in Christian marriage, a sevenfold bond and blessing to the crowning earthly friendship of life’s journey. Are we paying what is ‘due’?
God’s Order for Man and Women 1 Corinthians Ch 11 Dr. Peter Masters
Paul answers the question on the roles of husbands and wives and affirms conformity to the dress code of head coverings in Greek society at that time. With Calvin and major confessions we show that the ‘message’ of clothing may change in other ages and lands.
Things Only Believers See 1 Corinthians 2:9 Dr. Peter Masters
Sunday Morning 13 February 2022
The apostle impresses upon us the spiritual blindness of the unconverted state to the wonders revealed in the Gospel, including future glories (described here). Here also is the meaning of 'comparing spiritual things with spiritual,' judging all things and living the mind of Christ
Jesus Christ Himself (Text only) Ephesians 2:20
Preached on March 15th 1883 by Charles Haddon Spurgeon
Keeping Alive the Spirit Ephesians 2:22 Dr. Peter Masters
Sunday Morning 11 April 2021 (March 17 Sermon)
In the building of a spiritual family the work of the Holy Spirit is the vital power. Here several Holy Spirit verses in Ephesians are explored (including 'Be filled with the Spirit') to show the different activities of the Spirit in the Christian life.
The True Source of Power with Dr. Peter Masters
Sunday Morning 23 January 2022
For the Gospel to be credible, (the Corinthians [and many today] erroneously taught), we need conspicuous personalities or preachers. Here Paul proclaims the true source of spiritual power, the preaching of the cross of Christ, and why it is foolishness to the perishing and power to the saved.

He Loved and Gave Himself with Dr. Peter Masters
The enduring amazement of Paul the Apostle shines through these famous words, urging us to explore and ponder the glorious Person of Christ and the way in which He 'gave Himself', or handed Himself over, to the work of redeeming His people.

This Documentary presents comprehensive historical facts that led to the unending plethora of over 100 published versions of the English Bible. These continual but unsuccessful attempts to replace the King James Version KJV Bible will not succeed because GOD Himself preserves and protects His inerrant and infallible Holy Scripture from all heresy, blasphemy, compromise and confusion.
THE BEST ENGLISH TRANSLATION OF THE BIBLE:
GOD’S WORD (Immutable, God breathed, Self-Authenticating. Providentially Protected and Preserved and Forever Settled in Heaven, Psalm 119:89) The Authorized King James Bible
Is It The Best? David Hocking
David’s Summary (8 min.) The problem is not English, but is which Greek text was used to translate the Greek into English. [The Textus Receptus (Received Text) was rendered from 5,321 extant Greek manuscripts known as the Majority Text MT. These manuscripts overwhelmingly agree with one another and do not contain the heretical biases found in the Greek Text of Westcott & Hort and Nestle & Aland. The Foundational support of these two Greek Texts rest upon only 55 hand-picked manuscripts from the extant Majority Text instead of all 5,321.

________________________________________
PRAYER 5 Part 6 of 6 TO THE KING ETERNAL, January 27th
We beseech [earnestly implore] Thee [Heavenly Father] awake. Plead Thine [Your] own cause. We know Thine answer,
“Awake! awake! put on thy [your] strength, O Zion.”
This we would do, Lord, but we cannot do it unless Thou dost [do] put forth Thy strength to turn our weakness into might. Great God, save this nation! O God of heaven and earth, stay [stop] the floods of infidelity and of filthiness that roll over this land. Would God we might see better days! Men seem entirely indifferent now.
They will not come to hear the Word as once they did. God of our fathers let Thy Spirit work again among the masses. Turn the hearts of the people to the hearing of the Word, and convert [save] them when they hear it. May it be preached with the Holy Ghost sent down from heaven.
Our hearts are weary for Thee, thou King, Thou King forgotten in thine own land, Thou King despised among Thine own people, when wilt Thou yet [again] be glorious before the eyes of all mankind?
Come, we beseech [implore] Thee, come quickly, or if Thou comest [come] not personally, send forth the Holy Spirit with a greater power than ever that our hearts may leap within us as they see miracles of mercy repeated in our midst [among us].
Father, glorify Thy Son. Somehow our prayer always comes to this before we have [are] done.
“Father, glorify Thy Son that Thy Son also may glorify Thee,”
and let the days come when He shall see of the travail [heart wrenching labor] of His soul and shall be satisfied.
We Bless all work done for Thee, whether it be in the barn or in the cathedral, silently and quietly at the street, door, or in the Sunday-school or in the classes, O Lord, bless Thy work.
Hear also prayers that have been put up by wives for their husbands, children for their parents, parents for their children. Let the holy service of prayer never cease, and let the intercession be accepted of God, for Jesus Christ’s sake and in His Holy name, Amen.

ANECDOTE 178: January 27th REFRESHED BY ENTHUSIASM.
The chamois hunter quits [leaves] his couch long before the sun is up, and climbs the mountains. He watches from the first gray light for the creature which is the object of his pursuit. Ask him how it is when he returns late in the evening that he has had nothing to eat all day long. He answers,
“I never thought of it; I saw a chamois on a distant crag and I hastened after it.
I leaped the ravines, I climbed the steep faces of the rocks, I sprang down again; I was almost on my prey, [I almost caught it] but it was gone. I crept up within range again, holding my breath lest the scent of me should alarm the watchful chamois. I thought of nothing but my sport; and I never knew what hunger meant until my bullet found its mark in the heart of my prey, and I had drawn out my hunting-knife. It was not until I began to lift the game to my shoulder that I bethought me that I had neither eaten nor drunk that day.”
You understand what this enthusiasm means and how it refreshes the hunter.

… and pray for souls to be saved and believers to be strengthened
The Lord … is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance. 2 Peter 3:9
Pray also that believers will be led… led by the Holy Spirit to rightly divide and proclaim God’s Word providentially protected and preserved by God, Himself.
John 3:16:
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but be having everlasting life.
This Translation is from the Textus Receptus (TR) [Received Text] and is an example of the overwhelming majority of extant Greek texts MT that is in substantial agreement in their text itself and avoids inferior, ambiguous and missing primary source texts of the variant codices Alexandrinus, Sinaiticus and Vaticanus. There is substantial disagreement and missing texts among these codices which do not agree with one another, are created from incomplete codices and introduce modern biblical criticism theory that embraces ambiguities, uncertainties and variant readings [interpretations]. These are found in a multitude of new English translations and contain doctrinal compromises that nuance-away or otherwise diminish the highest glory due to God Almighty. The TR is the original primary New Testament Greek source of the Authorized King James Translation. It’s the ONLY ENGLISH translation that comes directly from the time tested and superior Textus Receptus.
For ever, O Lord, thy word is settled in Heaven. Psalm 119:89
God is not the author of confusion. 1 Corinthians 4:33
God, Himself, providentially protects and preserves His WORD. All of His Word is inspired, [God-breathed], self-authenticating, immutable [unchanging and unchangeable], eternal, inerrant, infallible, infinite and all-powerful [omnipotent] Word.

MORNING January 27th
“And of his fullness have all we received.” —John 1:16
16 Porque de su plenitud tomamos todos, y gracia sobre gracia.
Juan 1:16
THESE words tell us that there is a fullness in [Jesus] Christ. There is a
fullness of essential Deity [God’s very essence],
for “in Him dwells all the fullness of the Godhead”.
There is a fullness of perfect manhood,
for in Him, that Godhead was revealed bodily. [given to mankind in human form]
There is a fullness of atoning efficacy [righteous, holy satisfaction for reconciliation of mankind with God] in His blood,
for “the blood of Jesus Christ, His Son, cleanseth [cleans] us from all sin.”
There is a fullness of justifying righteousness in His life,
for “there is therefore now no condemnation to them that are in Christ Jesus.”
There is a fullness of divine prevalence [God’s prevailing] in His plea [prayer],
for “He is able to save to the uttermost them that come unto God by Him, seeing He ever liveth [lives forever] to make intercession for them”. [us]
There is a fullness of victory in His death,
for through death He destroyed him that had the power of death, that is, the devil.
There is a fullness of efficacy in His resurrection from the dead,
for by it “we are begotten again unto a lively hope.”
There is a fullness of triumph in His ascension,
for “when He ascended up on high, He led captivity captive, and received gifts for men.” [Wherefore he saith, When he ascended up on high, he led captivity captive, and gave gifts unto men. Eph. 4:8]
There is a fullness of blessings of every sort and shape; a
fullness:
of grace to pardon,
of grace to regenerate,
of grace to sanctify,
of grace to preserve
of grace to perfect.
There is a
fullness at all times:
a fullness of comfort in affliction,
a fullness of guidance in prosperity.
There is a fullness of every divine attribute:
of wisdom,
of power,
of love;
a fullness which it were [would be] impossible to survey [measure], much less to explore.
“It pleased the Father that in Him should all fullness dwell.”
Oh, what a fullness must this be of which all receive! Fullness, indeed, must there be when the stream is always flowing, and yet the well springs up as free, as rich, as full as ever.
Come, believer, and get all your need supplied; ask largely, and you will receive largely, for this fullness is inexhaustible, and is treasured up where all the needy may reach it, even in Jesus,
Immanuel
—God with us.

EVENING January 27th
"But Mary kept all these things, and pondered them in her heart. ─Luke 2:19
─Mas María guardaba todas estas cosas, confiriéndolas en su corazón─ Lucas 2:19
THERE was an exercise on the part of this blessed woman of three powers [attributes] of her being:
her memory—she kept [remembered] all these things;
her affections—she kept them in her heart;
her intellect—she pondered [meditated, considered and reasoned] them. [all these things]
Memory, affection, and understanding, were all exercised about the things she had heard. Beloved, “re-member” what you have heard of your Lord Jesus, and what He has done for you; make your heart the golden pot of manna [heavenly nourishment] to preserve the memorial of the heavenly bread you have fed on in days gone by.
Let your memory treasure up everything about Christ which you have either felt, or known, or believed, and then let your fond affections hold Him fast [tight] for evermore. Love the person of your Lord! Bring forth the alabaster box of your heart, even though it be broken, and let all the precious ointment [perfumed salve] of your affection anoint His pierced feet.
Let your intellect be exercised concerning the Lord Jesus. Meditate upon what you read: do not stop at the surface; dive into the depths. Do not be as the swallow that touches the brook with her wing, but [be] as the fish that penetrates [swims in] the lowest wave.
Abide [fellowship] with your Lord: let Him not be to you as a wayfaring [traveling] man, that tarries [stays only] for a night, but constrain Him [make Him stay], saying,
"Abide [stay] with us, for the day is far spent."
Hold Him, and do not let Him go. The word "ponder," means to weigh.
Make ready the balances [scales] of judgment.
Oh, but where are the scales that can weigh the Lord Christ?
"He taketh up the isles [picks-up islands] as a very little thing." Who shall take Him up [pick Him up]? "He weigheth [weighs] the mountains in scales."
In what scales shall we weigh Him?If your understanding cannot comprehend, let your affections apprehend, and
If your spirit cannot compass [embrace] the Lord Jesus in the grasp of understanding, let it embrace Him in the arms of affection [love].
________________________________________
The Authorized King James Version (AKJV), also known as the Authorized Version (AV), is the authentic English Bible because it is rendered [translated into English] accurately and faithfully from the established majority of the Greek Textus Receptus [received text] manuscripts of the New Testament and the Hebrew Masoretic Text of the Old Testament
(The Jewish Tanakh) These manuscripts have always been providentially protected by Almighty God, and always give a greater glory to God when compared to any of the variant readings. The established majority manuscripts avoid doctrinal error, inaccuracies in translation, uninspired editorial notations, variant or ambiguous readings taken from Codices Vaticanus, or Sinaiticus.
The Authorized King James version is distinguished further by the requirement of Great Brittan that all King James bibles be printed only by the Cambridge University Press, the Crown’s authorized printer. No other [person or publisher] may print, copy or import the King James Bible into Great Brittan by order of the Crown.
Printed Prayer: Printed prayers must not be read or offered as a substitute for personal, fervent, effectual, heart-felt, prayer. They are offered, rather, to warm the hearts of those who will presently seek a season of fervent, authentic two-way, heart-to-heart fellowship and prayer with the Father, Son and the Holy Spirit. Authentic revelations from God during prayer are always consistent with His revealed Word, the Bible.
Preaching Preparation: When preparing to preach, please send us the text reference that has been chosen if you would like us to send the Spurgeon Sermon addressing the same text.
My Prayer is that You would touch, lift up, encourage and teach all who faithfully minister your Word. Bless all who minister the Gospel of Jesus Christ. May Your blessing and holy anointing fall fresh upon each dear reader and abide with each one who rightly divides and faithfully proclaims Your Word [The Bible]. Please save many souls; and may all be glory be yours alone. I pray this in the name of our Redeemer, The Lord Jesus Christ, Amen.

A SINNER’S PRAYER: January 27th … FOR WHOSOEVER:
Whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved. Acts 2:21
Call on the name of the Lord Jesus and be saved … pray like this, won’t you?
“Lord Jesus, I’m a lost sinner and without You I am lost. I can’t save myself. Without your death on the cross to pay my sin debt I would be condemned to spend eternity in Hell. My nature and behavior has been sinful from birth. Please forgive me.
I realize that doing my best, being as good as possible, or being better than other people can never save me. . I’m sorry for each and every sin I have ever done and look to You to forgive them all.
I look to You, alone Lord Jesus to save me.
I call on You, Lord Jesus, right now to save me. You died on the cross for me, as God’s sacrifice for my sin.
Right now, just as I am, I call on You, Lord Jesus to save me, I trust You to be my Savior and Lord.
Thank You, Lord Jesus, that You have forgiven me of all my sins. I want to follow You from now on.
You paid the price for all of my sins by dying on the cross.
Thank you, Lord Jesus that You loved me and died for me before I was born and that You love me still
Thank you, Heavenly Father, that You called me away from sin and death into the Life everlasting in Your only begotten son, the Lord Jesus.
Thank You, Heavenly Father that you raised Jesus from the dead. He is alive and in Him we are victorious over sin, death and the grave.
Thank You for saving me heavenly Father and Holy Spirit for Your comfort and guidance in all things.
With all my heart, thank you Lord Jesus for saving me. In your name, I pray, Amen.

John Bunyan did not write nor hold to a world view of any kind. His inspired work, The Pilgrim’s Progress, known as the world’s most allegory, does not subscribe to any world view at all but proclaims God’s view on everything revealed and forever settled in Heaven Psalm 119:89 in The Holy Bible.
Bunyan merely, yet ardently believed God’s Word; That it is God-breathed [inspired by God], Self-authenticating, Providentially-protected and propagated immutable [unchanged and unchangeable] , inerrant [without error] , infallible [incapable of being mistaken or of being wrong], indestructible and eternal written Word from GOD Himself for ever settled in Heaven.
