God gives these Holy Scriptures to be followed to discern whether every spirit is to be believed or not.

 

1 John 4:1-3

Chapter 4 
1Beloved, 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 [is here] in the flesh is of God: 3 and every spirit that confesseth not [doesn’t confess] that Jesus Christ is come [is here] in the flesh is not of God: and this is that spirit of antichrist,
whereof [of which] ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world.

 

Therefore, I hereby confess that "Jesus Christ is come [is here] in the flesh!"

He was born of a virgin 2,026 years ago in Bethlehem of Judea

He’s alive today, and is coming soon for His Bride; the Church.

 

1 Timothy 3:16

Chapter 3

"16 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."

 

You are invited to believe in the Lord Jesus Christ as your savior and your Lord and to publicly acknowledge Him as such. He will acknowledge you then to His Father; The God of Abraham. Isaac and Jacob. You are also invited to follow Him in believer’s baptism. 

 

Jesus came from Galilee to Jordan to be baptized by John the Baptist. But, John forbad [refused] Him and said, “I have need to be baptized of You and [yet] you are coming to me?” [for baptism] And Jesus answering him said, “Suffer it to be so [Allow this]: for thus it becometh [is fitting and right for] us to fulfil all righteousness.”  Matthew 3:15

 

Baptism is not required for salvation. Remember, Jesus said to the thief on the cross, who acknowledged Jesus’ innocence and said to him. “Remember me when you come into your kingdom.” And Jesus said to him, “Verily [Truly] I say to you, Today you shall be with me in paradise.” Luke 23:43

 

The act of Baptism pictures the Lord’s death and resurrection and His propitiation [forgiving all of the pennant  sinner’s sins completely as if they never took place]  and the believer’s death to self, and their atonement to walk in the newness of a  born-again life.

This ordinance of Baptism was preached by John the Baptist. He preached that the Kingdom of Heaven is at hand and exhorted Repentance from sin and the ordinance of Baptism to picture  atonement. Therefore, while the ordinance  of baptism is not required for salvation it is to  be followed so as to fulfil all righteousness.

_______________________________________________

 

Worship The Lord Jesus Christ  in Spirit and in truth.

 

The Truth of Such worship will manifest itself through fervent Prayer, Bible reading, study, meditation, and Hearing in Rightly dividing and heeding the  gospel message of Jesus Christ [The Messiah]. Worship will bring God’s presence because  he Inhabits the praises of his children in the singing of, sacred hymns and spiritual songs sung  to Him, the LORD of LORDS and KING of KINGS.

 

We trust the Website: dailypurgeon.com  will be encouraging and helpful.

It cannot however, take the place of in-person congregational worship with a local body of believers.

 

“Study to show yourself approved unto God, a worker that needs not be ashamed, rightly dividing [accurately comprehending and  sharing ] the word of truth.” 2 Timothy 2:15

 

Helping believers to become more fully devoted followers of The Lord Jesus Christ is our sincere desire. We trust Him for our salvation, guidance, strength and our eternal destiny. We will, in His almighty power, win souls through  the instrumentalities He may inspire in us. We will invite and encourage non-believers to turn away from sin, look to Him and be saved.

 

Believers (old and new) will benefit in knowing He sustains, guides and builds us up as we are being conformed to the image of Christ Jesus by the power of the Holy Ghost.

 

DailySpurgeon.com is an Internet presence of devotional writings, prayers and encouragement from Charles Haddon Spurgeon. He rightly divides [preaches and teaches] God’s Word through Sermons delivered at  The Metropolitan Tabernacle in London, with sacred congregational music of worship and praise  to encourage and strengthen the elect to become fully devoted followers of Jesus Christ.

 

He is the most prolific writer ever, through his legacy of 140 books and the  Metropolitan Tabernacle Pulpit  Collection of 83 volumes of his Sermons. He’s  the most prolific writer of all Time.

O, Lord, bring the multitudes of the working men to listen to the gospel. Break in, we pray Thee, upon their stolid [unemotional] indifference. Lord, give them a love of Thy house, a desire to hear Thy gospel, and then, wilt [will] Thou look upon the poor rich who so many of them know nothing about Thee and are worshipping their own wealth.

 

The Lord grant [I pray] that the many for whom there are no special gospel services, but who are wrapped up in self-righteousness, may be brought to hear the gospel of Jesus that they also, as well as the poor, may be brought to [Jesus] Christ.

 

[Thank You, Father, that this man, [Your only begotten son] because he continueth ever [forever continues], hath an unchangeable priesthood. Wherefore, he is able also to save them to the uttermost that come unto God by Him, seeing [that]

 

he ever liveth to make intercession for them.

Thank You, Lord Jesus, Amen.

ANECDOTE 354: A MARVELOUS PROPHECY.

Click and Sing-along, won’t you? “God moves in a mysterious way His wonders to perform.” (Enjoy the back story to this Hymn)  by William Cowper from the book Spurgeon’s Own Hymn Book (Hymn No. 211).

 

I [Spurgeon] wish to bear a personal testimony by narrating an incident in my own life.

I have been preaching in Essex this week, and I took the opportunity to visit the place where my grandfather preached so long, and where I spent my earliest days.

 

Last Wednesday was to me a day in which I walked like a man in a dream. Everybody seemed bound to recall some event or other of my childhood. What a story of divine love and mercy did it bring before my mind! Among other things, I sat down in a place that must ever be sacred to me. There stood in my grandfather’s manse [parsonage] garden two arbors made of yew trees, cut into sugar-loaf fashion. *Though the old manse has given way to a new one, and the old chapel has gone also, yet the yew trees nourish as aforetime. I sat down in the right hand arbor and bethought me of what had happened there many years ago. When I was a young child staying with my grandfather, there came to preach in the village Mr. Knill, who had been a missionary at St. Petersburg, and a mighty preacher of the gospel. He came to preach for the London Missionary Society, and arrived on the Saturday at the manse. He was a great soul-winner, and he soon spied out the boy.

He said to me, “Where do you sleep? for I want to call you up in the morning.” I showed him my little room. At six o clock he called me up, and we went into that arbor. There, in the sweetest way, he told me of the love of Jesus, and of the blessedness of trusting in him and loving him in our childhood. With many a story he preached Christ to me, and told me how good God had been to him, and then he prayed that I might know the Lord and serve him. He knelt down in that arbor and prayed for me with his arms about my neck. He did not seem content unless I kept with [stayed near] him in the interval between the services, and he heard my childish talk with patient love. On Monday morning he did as on the Sabbath, and again on Tuesday. Three times he taught me and prayed with me, and before he had to leave, my grandfather had come back from the place where he had gone to preach, and all the family were gathered to morning prayer. Then, in the presence of them all, Mr. Knill took me on his knee, and said,

 

“This child will one day preach the gospel, and he will preach it to great multitudes. I am persuaded that he will preach in the chapel of Rowland Hill, where (I think he said) I am now the minister.” He spoke very solemnly, and called upon all present to witness what he said. Then he gave me sixpence as a reward if I would learn the hymn.

“God moves in a mysterious way His wonders to perform.”

 

I was made to promise that when I preached in Rowland Hill’s Chapel that hymn should be sung. Think of that as a promise from a child! Would it ever be other than an idle dream?

 

Years flew by. After I had begun for some little time to preach in London, Dr. Alexander Fletcher had to give the annual sermon to children in Surrey Chapel, but as he was taken ill, I was asked in a hurry to preach to the children.

 

“Yes,” I said, “I will, if the children will sing, God Moves In A Mysterious Way. I have made a promise long ago that so that should be sung.”

 

And so it was: I preached in Rowland Hill’s Chapel, and the hymn was sung. My emotions on that occasion I cannot describe. Still, that was not the chapel which Mr. Knill intended. All unsought by me, the minister at Wotton-under-Edge, which was Mr. Hill’s summer residence, invited me to preach there.

 

I went on the condition that the congregation should sing, “God moves in a mysterious way” which was also done. After that I went to preach for Mr. Richard Knill himself, who was then at Chester. What a meeting we had!

 

Mark this! he was preaching in a theater*! His preaching in a theatre took away from me all fear about preaching in secular buildings, and set me free for the campaigns in Exeter Hall and the Surrey Music Hall. How much this had to do with other *theater services, you know.

 

“God moves in a mysterious way His wonders to perform.”

 

After more than forty years of the Lord’s loving-kindness, I sat again in that arbor [the same garden where the prophesy took place]!

FAITH’S CHECKBOOK July 26th    A CHANGE OF NAME
by C.H. Spurgeon 1834 – 1892


-And it shall be at that day, saith the Lord, that thou shalt call me Ishi; [Husband] and shalt call me no more Baali; for I will take away the names of Baalim out of her mouth, and they shall no more be remembered by their name [Baali] - Hosea 2:16, 17

 

Y será que en aquel tiempo, dice Jehova, me llamarás Ishi [Marido mio], y nunca mas me llamarás Baali. Porque quitaré de su boca los nombres de los Baales, y nunca mas serán mentados por sus nombres- Oseas 2:16, 17

 

That day has come. We view our God no more as Baal, our tyrant Lord and mighty master, for we are not under law, but under grace. We now think of Jehovah, our God, as our Ishi, our beloved husband, our Lord in love, our next-of-kin  in bonds of sacred relationship. We do not reverence Him less, but we love Him more. We do not serve Him less obediently, but we serve Him for a higher and more endearing reason.

We no longer tremble under His lash, but rejoice in His love.

 

The slave is changed into a child, and the task into a pleasure.

 

Is it so with thee, dear reader? Has grace cast out slavish fear and implanted filial [vibrant, family] love [due from a son or daughter]? How happy are we in such an experience!

 

Now we call the Lord’s Day a delight,
and worship is never a weariness.

Prayer is now a privilege,
and praise is a holiday.

To obey is Heaven;
to give to the cause of God
is a banquet.

 

Thus have all things become new. Our mouth is filled with singing, and our heart with music. Blessed be our heavenly Ishi [Beloved Husband] forever and forever.

 

Prayer: Thank You Father, that we now call You -Ishi- [beloved husband]. Thank You for Your love that compels our love, gratitude, praise and service for You in return, and we ask that You implant loving and enduring faithfulness in our heart for You, in Your name Lord Jesus I pray, Amen.

MORNING July 26th

"GIVING ALL DILIGENCE, ADD TO YOUR FAITH VIRTUE; AND TO VIRTUE KNOWLEDGE."— 2 Peter 1:5-6

—Poniendo toda diligencia por esto mismo, mostrad en vuestra fe virtud, y en la virtud ciencia —2 Pedro 1:5

 

IF you would enjoy the eminent grace of the full assurance of faith, under the blessed Spirit's influence and assistance, do what the Scripture tells you,

 

Give diligence. "Take care that your faith is of the right kind—that it is not a mere belief of doctrine, but a simple faith, depending on [Jesus] Christ, and on [Jesus] Christ alone.

 

Give diligent heed [pay close attention] to your courage. Plead with God that He would give you the face of a lion, that you may, with a consciousness of right, go on boldly.

 

Study well the Scriptures and get knowledge; for a knowledge of doctrine will tend very much to confirm faith.

 

Try to understand God’s Word; let it dwell in your heart richly.

 

When you have done this,

"Add to thy knowledge temperance. [restraint through  God’s Spirit]

Take heed to your body: be temperate without.

Take heed to your soul: be temperate within [exercise self-control].

Get temperance of lip [what we say],

…Of life [how we live],

…Of heart [what, who we love], and

…Of thought [what we think].

Add to this, by God's Holy Spirit, patience;

ask Him to give you that patience which endures affliction, which, when it is tried,

shall come forth as gold.

Array [surround] yourself with patience, that you may not murmur nor be depressed in your afflictions.

 

When that grace is won

look to godliness. Godliness is something more than religion.

Make God's glory your object in life;

live in His sight; dwell close to Him; seek for fellowship with Him; and you have "godliness."

To that add brotherly love. Have a love to all the saints: and

add to that a charity, which opens its arms to all men, and loves their souls.
When you are adorned with these jewels, and [are] just in proportion as you practice these heavenly virtues, will you come to know by clearest evidence

"Your calling and election.

"Give diligence," if you would get assurance,

for lukewarmness and doubting very naturally go hand in hand.

EVENING July 26th   "THAT HE MAY SET HIM WITH PRINCES. " —Psalm 113:8

 

—Para hacerlos sentar con los príncipes —Salmos 113:8

 

OUR spiritual privileges are of the highest order. "Among Princes" is the place of select society.

"Truly our fellowship is with the Father, and with His Son, Jesus Christ."
Speak of a select society—there is none like this!

 

"We are a chosen generation, a peculiar people, a royal priesthood." "We are come unto the general assembly and church of the first-born, whose names are written in heaven." The saints have courtly audience: princes have admittance to royalty when common people must stand afar off.

The child of God has free access to the inner courts of heaven. "For through Him we both have access by one Spirit unto the Father."

 

"Let us come boldly," says the apostle, "to the throne of the heavenly grace."

Among princes there is abundant wealth, but what is the abundance of princes compared with the riches of believers?

 

For "all things are yours, and ye are Christ's and Christ is God's."

 

"He that spared not His own Son, but delivered Him up for us all,

how shall He not with Him also freely give us all things? "

 

Princes have peculiar power. A prince of heaven's empire has great influence: he wields a sceptre in his own domain; he sits upon Jesus' throne, for

 

“He hath made us kings and priests unto God, and we shall reign forever and ever.”

 

We reign over the united kingdom of time and eternity.

 

Princes, again, have special *honor. he sits on Jesus' throne, for

 

"He hath made us kings and priests unto God, and we shall reign for ever and ever."

 

We reign over the united kingdom of time and eternity. We may look down on all earth-born dignity from the eminence upon which grace has placed us.

 

For what is human grandeur [compared] to this,
 

“He hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus”?


We share the *honor of Christ, and compared with this, earthly splendors [riches] are not worth a [single] thought.

 

Communion with Jesus is a richer gem [jewel] than ever glittered in imperial diadem  [A Royal crown].

Union with the Lord is a coronet [crown] of beauty outshining all the blaze of imperial pomp [Earthly notice].

A Requiem: *Charles Dumah Riley, Sr. (AKA: Daddy, "CD", and Paw Paw) 1897 – 1987

JM witnessed the last few hours of his *Daddy’s life on earth coming to an end and heard him say only “Amen” over and over, in the belief  that he was affirming and agreeing with God’s will in the conclusion of his own life’s and giving a testimony of God’s goodness to him and his agreement and his surrender to his earthly departure to be eternally present with the Lord Jesus. 

Amen... Amen… and  Amen!

 

My Daddy’s  prayer before every meal, always offered with all gravity, reverence and always heard in the unique sound of his deep Bass prayer voice:

“Accept our thanks for these and all other blessings, we humbly ask in Thy name, Amen.”

vis. Textus Receptus [The Traditional Greek Text] (From the overwhelming majority of extant New Testament Greek manuscripts)

The Incomplete and unsealed codices of Sinaiticus and Vaticanus are not majority texts, [Original Masoretic Hebrew and the Greek Textus Receptus]. Sinaiticus and Vaticanus present variant, ambiguous and erroneous readings rather than that of the well-established and settled texts. They disagree often with one another as well as with the settled majority texts. Thus, an attempt to create a pretext that will continue to justify a never-ending demand for additional editions and interpretations. These unsettled differences and bias in certain sectarian doctrine [dogma] have led to the production of multiple “modern” editions with ambiguities, many variant readings and confusion from the explosion of unending, new editions.

Profit-driven publishers have embraced such an economic windfall to sell a continual flow of “new and better” English edition of The Bible. They give too little attention to the fidelity and accuracy already settled [in heaven] in majority manuscripts of the Masoretic Hebrew and the  Greek Textus Receptus.

 

Psalm 119:89-90

ל Lamed

89 Forever, O LORD, thy word is settled in heaven.

90 Thy faithfulness is unto all generations:

thou hast established the earth, and it abideth [abides].

God, Himself, providentially protects and preserves His Word. His Word is the God-breathed, self-authenticating, immutable [unchanging and unchangeable], eternal, inerrant, infallible, infinite and all-powerful Word, settled in heaven. He is not the author of confusion.

1 Corinthians 14:33

MISSION STATEMENT:

… Fear God, and keep his commandments: for this is the whole duty of man. Ecclesiastes 12:13

Our solemn aim is to trust and obey the Lord Jesus in everything. We must rely upon God entirely to achieve His purposes in us and through us.

Loving and worshiping God with all our heart, soul, mind and strength in Spirit and in truth is a labor of love and duty of every believer. Desire will grow stronger as we give ourselves to prayer, reading and meditating on God’s Word, gathering ourselves together to hear Gospel preaching, the singing of Psalms, sacred hymns and spiritual songs.

We purpose, with God’s help, to reach the lost, comfort, strengthen and encourage believers, and rightly divide God’s Word to proclaim the Gospel (Good News) of Jesus Christ to every creature.

The Holy Bible is God’s eternal, inerrant, infallible, immutable revealed and divinely preserved Word. It is His completed scripture of all revealed truth. He brings guidance and the knowledge of His will to us personally and to each local body of Christian believers through His Word. With God’s help and empowerment, we will read, study, meditate-on, trust-in and obey God’s Holy Bible and encourage others to do the same. We hold it to be the supreme authority and the preeminent and divinely established precedent [Stare Decisis Latin: to stand by that which is decided, the legal doctrine of precedence, literally "to stand by decided matters"] in all things.

Therefore, the purpose of The John Mark Publishing Company is to publish the Gospel of Jesus Christ to every creature. And, to serve all, in love, especially those in the household of faith. We are compelled by this purpose to follow, and rightly apply and proclaim, God’s Holy Word, the Bible, as God’s divinely preserved truth; being the essential authority and goal of this ministry.

The Metropolitan Tabernacle: Home church of Charles H. Spurgeon

The preaching, teaching, soul winning and writings of Charles Haddon Spurgeon are firmly fixed on the bedrock of Holy Scripture. His entire ministry was established, empowered and inspired solely by God’s Holy Word imparted to him by the Holy Spirit. His written works continue to bless, guide, challenge and benefit today’s readers through the publication of his authentic Gospel sermons and other inspired writing His ministry continues to thrive and flourish today through the Metropolitan Tabernacle a church begun in 1650 The present building was constructed in 1861 and was rebuilt after the destruction caused during the second world war. This church has been steadfast in it’s adherence to Reformed Baptist theology that Spurgeon said was just a nickname for Biblical Christianity. They have resisted and continue to reject worldly winds of false doctrine, including pragmatism and self-centered “Christian hedonism”. Biblical Christianity will always show itself as a personal relationship with the Lord Jesus Christ, never just a philosophy or religion.

Mission Aim: Spurgeon's sermons and devotional messages have edified the church body and have been a great benefit, to all readers for many years. We pray they will be useful to strengthen personal discipleship in each and every believer and will be a useful instrument in the spreading of the Gospel [Good news] of Jesus Christ, the Messiah to all nations.

MISSION PURPOSE:

Our aim is to trust and obey the Lord Jesus Christ in everything. We rely wholly upon the Holy Spirit to impart God’s divine revelation to us from His Word, the Holy Bible. With God’s help, we will follow Jesus. We expect that lost souls will be saved, believers, comforted, strengthened and encouraged. To God be all the glory.

The Bible is God’s divinely inspired [God breathed] revealed, infinite, eternal, inerrant, infallible, immutable Word to all mankind. This divine, supernatural Word brings all revealed truth to the world. We purpose, therefore, to follow God’s Holy Word, Personal guidance and guidance to the local church comes by His Word.

Hence, we resolve, God helping us, to read, study, meditate-on, trust-in and obey God’s revealed and divinely preserved Word, holding it to be the supreme authority and the only divinely established Stare Decisis [Latin: to stand by that which is decided] in all things.

Therefore, the purpose of The John Mark Publishing Company is to publish and proclaim the Gospel of Jesus Christ to every creature, ministering God’s love to all, especially those in the household of faith. The Bible is God’s everlasting, inspired, (God breathed) inerrant, infallible, unchangeable, divinely protected and preserved Word of love and salvation to the entire world. It is also the essential foundation of this ministry.

History: The inspired preaching, teaching and writing of Charles Haddon Spurgeon is all empowered by God’s revealed Word the Bible. His written publications continue to benefit readers through authentic Gospel preaching and sound biblical teaching. This ministry continues to flourish through The Metropolitan Tabernacle in London

 

Presented here are Spurgeon's writings for the edification of the church as well as for the benefit, blessing and gospel challenge to all readers. Our desire is that the written Word of God will become the Living Word in the person of the Lord Jesus Christ to each and every reader.

To this end, this website is offered to encourage and provide opportunity to hear Gospel preaching, and to engage in daily devotional meditation, Bible study and prayer. Careful adherence to Spurgeon’s calendar and original, unabridged text is given herein.

Prayer: Dear Lord, empower your ministry to win many souls, and serve those in need, especially those in the household of faith, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, Amen.

Disclaimer: The John Mark Publishing Company does not solicit praise of Charles H. Spurgeon or his writing or preaching. He didn’t need or want it then and wouldn’t desire it now. Our aim is to lift up and glorify the Lord Jesus Christ and to preach Christ Jesus only and him crucified.

Precaution: These Messages and prayers will not substitute for continual fellowship with the Lord Jesus or for gathering in in-person worship. Neither will they replace personal reading, meditation, prayer and fasting over God's divinely preserved and eternal Word imparted by the Holy Spirit.

 

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 Text [The 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 God, and always give a greater glory to God when compared to any other  variant reading. The established majority manuscripts avoid doctrinal error, inaccuracies in text or translation, present in uninspired editorial notations, variant or ambiguous readings found in the Codices Vaticanus, or Sinaiticus.

 

The Authorized King James version is distinguished also 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 should 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 seek a season of fervent, authentic two-way, heart-to-heart fellowship and prayer with GOD the Father, The only begotten Son and the Holy Ghost. Authentic revelations from God during prayer are always consistent with His revealed Word, the Holy 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.

A SINNER’S PRAYER: … 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.

Philippians Chapter 4:
 

1Therefore, my brethren dearly beloved and longed for, my joy and crown, so stand fast in the Lord, my dearly beloved.

2 I beseech Euodias, and beseech Syntyche, that they be of the same mind in the Lord.

3 And I intreat thee also, true yokefellow, help those women which labored with me in the gospel, with Clement also, and with other my fellow laborers, whose names are in the book of life.

4 Rejoice in the Lord always: and again I say, Rejoice. (sing-along)

5 Let your moderation be known unto all men. The Lord is at hand.

6 Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.

7 And the peace of God, which passeth [passes] all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.

8 Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things.

9 Those things, which ye have both learned, and received, and heard, and seen in me, do: and the God of peace shall be with you.

10 But I rejoiced in the Lord greatly, that now at the last your care of me hath flourished again; wherein ye were also careful, but ye lacked opportunity.

11 Not that I speak in respect of want: for I have learned, in whatsoever state I am, therewith to be content.

12 I know both how to be abased, and I know how to abound: everywhere and in all things I am instructed both to be full and to be hungry, both to abound and to suffer need.

13 I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth [strengthens] me.

14 Notwithstanding ye have well done, that ye did communicate with my affliction.

15 Now ye Philippians know also, that in the beginning of the gospel, when I departed from Macedonia, no church communicated with me as concerning giving and receiving, but ye only.

16 For even in Thessalonica ye sent once and again unto my necessity.

17 Not because I desire a gift: but I desire fruit that may abound to your account.

18 But I have all, and abound: I am full, having received of Epaphroditus the things which were sent from you, an odor of a sweet smell, a sacrifice acceptable, well pleasing to God.

19 But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus.

20 Now unto God and our Father be glory for ever and ever. Amen.

21 Salute every saint in Christ Jesus. The brethren which are with me greet you.

22 All the saints salute you, chiefly they that are of Cesar’s household.

23 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen.

WHO IS THE GOD OF THE BIBLE? 
by David Hocking

WHAT ARE HIS NAMES?

 

(1 One)   His Name is INCOMPREHENSIBLE!

Exodus 3:13-15 “13 And Moses said unto God, Behold, when I come unto the children of Israel, and shall say unto them, The God of your fathers hath sent me unto you; and they shall say to me, What is his name? what shall I say unto them? 14 And God said unto Moses, I AM THAT I AM: and he said, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, I AM hath sent me unto you. 15 And God said moreover unto Moses, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, The Lord God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, hath sent me unto you: this is my name for ever, and this is my memorial unto all generations.”


Isaiah 9:6  For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given:
and the government shall be upon his shoulder:
and his name shall be called Wonderful,
Counsellor, The Mighty God, The Everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.


Psalm 139:6

Authorized (King James) Version

6 Such knowledge is too wonderful for me;
it is high, I cannot attain unto it.”

 

 

(2 Two)  His Name is INFINITE!

Psalm 145:1-3
1 I will extol thee, my God, O king;
and I will bless thy name for ever and ever.
2 Every day will I bless thee;
and I will praise thy name for ever and ever.

3 Great is the Lord, and greatly to be praised;
and his greatness is unsearchable.

Romans 11:33
33 O the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and knowledge of God! how unsearchable are his judgments, and his ways past finding out!
 

(3 Three)   His Name is INCORRUPTABLE!

              (two issues:  holy  and eternal)

Psalm 72:17
“His name shall be continued as long as the sun: and men shall be blessed in Him: all nations shall call Him blessed.”

Psalm 99:3
“Let them praise Thy great and terrible name; for it is Holy.”

Psalm 111:9
“Holy and reverend is His name.”
Psalm 135:13
Thy Name, O LORD  endureth for ever; and Thy memorial,  O LORD, throughout all generations.”
Psalm 145:21
“Let all flesh bless His holy Name for ever and ever.”

 

(4 Four)  His name is IMMUTABLE! [Unchanged and unchangeable]

Malachi 3:6
“For I am the LORD, I change not.”

Hebrews 6:18
That by two immutable things, in which it was impossible for God to lie, we might have (1) a strong consolation, who have fled for refuge to lay hold upon (2) the hope set before us.”

 

(5 Five)  His name is INCOMPARABLE! [Without Equal]

Deuteronomy 4:35
“Unto thee it was shewed, that thou mightiest know that the LORD He is God;  there is none else beside Him.”

Deuteronomy 4:39
Know therefore this day, and consider it in thine heart, that the Lord he is God in heaven above, and upon the earth beneath: there is none else.

 

 (6 Six)   His Name is INDESCRIBABLE! [No description adequately describes HIM] 
 
El, Eloah, Elyon, Elohim, Adon, Adonai, - Yah, Yahveh
(The Names for GOD used 10,952 times in the Bible!)
____________________________________

To Abraham – His Name is El Shaddai [God Almighty, Abundant Provider,  Provider of More than Enough]
 

Genesis17:1   ,
And when Abram was ninety and nine (99) years old,  the Lord appeared to Abram, and said unto him, I Am, the Almighty God; walk before me, and be thou perfect.

Why Cults, False Teachers and Heretics have tried to delete 1 John 5:7
from the Bible.    

 By Dr. Phil Stringer

 

In Defense of I John 5:7

By Dr. Phil Stringer


1 John 5:7 Is The Great Trinitarian Proof Text of The Bible. (For The immutable Doctrine of the Trinity.)

 

Daniel Webster [Author of the Famous Webster Dictionary] was once asked. “Does it not bother you [Mr. Webster] to believe in the Trinity since you cannot explain it?

 

His answer was,  “What would bother me would be to have a God so small that I could fully explain HIM.”

Why The Traditional  Greek Text Also Known As The Received Text [Latin: Textus Receptus] TR is Inspired, Inerrant and Immutable.

By Dr. David Sorenson
 

In addition to overwhelming evidence of authenticity from the 5,321 Majority Text Greek manuscripts, this link gives Translational Evidence that proves the age of the Textus Receptus to be older than both the  Codices Sinaiticus and Vaticanus, Primary Greek sources used in all Critical Text translations.

This includes Westcott and Hort, Nestle and Aland and the Codices Sinaiticus and *Vaticanus.

*The unique and final Greek Text so deemed, authorized and sanctioned by the Catholic Church and The Vatican.

The Lord Jesus *Christ
[*Anointed Messiah]

was supernaturally Fathered by the Holy Ghost,  and born of a teen-aged virgin girl named  Mary 2026 years ago in Bethlehem of Judea.

He was crucified, and His lifeless body was placed in a tomb. After three days, GOD  brought Him back to life again, and raised HIM from the dead victorious over sin, death and the grave.

He is GOD’S Incarnate WORD and Everlasting SACRIFICE, The LAMB of GOD, [THE WORD of GOD made flesh.]  The CHURCH is the BODY of *Christ,
*[The MESSIAH.]

[The CHURCH] is HIS espoused [Legally Bound] Bride, for whom HE will come again to consummate their Marriage in the Marriag                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  and Protected Words of GOD.
These WORDS are God-Breathed, [Spoken] Eternal WORDS spoken by Almighty GOD. The same GOD who calls Himself “I AM”, is Omni-Lingual, Omnipotent, Omniscient, Immutable, All-Wise, Omnipresent, Eternally and Supremely Holy. He is the One-and-Only Triune, Three-in-One GOD.


“I and my Father are one”.  John 10:30

________________________________
 

1 John 5:7  Is the fundamental scriptural  basis for the doctrine and essential tenet of the Trinity. [The Triune, [Three-in-One] GOD in-Three Persons   (This verse has been omitted or Changed to diminish the authority and the Person of the Lord Jesus Christ or has been Removed entirely from all Critical Text translations by apostates that hold to the untenable goal of False Doctrine that gives rise to all manner of Cults, False Teaching, Heresies, false Prophets, Agnostics, Gnostics, Atheists and  Pagans.


Therefore, The incarnate WORD of GOD, [Jesus *Christ
(*The Anointed MESSIAH) and His Father are ONE.]  John 10:30

7 For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, [Jesus Christ] and the Holy Ghost: and
THESE THREE ARE ONE. John 10:30


8 And there are three that bear witness in earth, the Spirit, [Holy Ghost] and the Water [Life of the Father], and the Blood; [The Sacrificial Blood of Jesus Christ]: and these three AGREE IN ONE. 9 If we receive the witness of men, the witness of God is greater: for this is the witness of God which he hath testified of his Son,  [The LORD Jesus *Christ
*(The Anointed Messiah)].

 

GOD calls Himself “I AM” and Jesus Christ is The WORD made Flesh, GOD’s WORD is infinite and will endure FOREVER, from Eternity Past through the never-ending Eternal Future.

The Traditional Text: It's History & Manifestation

 

By Dr. David Sorenson

In addition to evidence of authenticity from the 5,321 Majority Text manuscripts, this link presents Translational Evidence that the Traditional Text is Inerrant, Infallible and is the Inspired [Word-by-Word, GOD-Breathed Greek Text that moved the Prophets and Apostles to write precisely the Greek and Hebrew words they were told to write by the Holy Ghost]

The Traditional Text.  Length: (33:56 minutes)

The Traditional Greek Text was printed, not written by Desiderius Erasmus and was used  in the FIRST Christian Church at Antioch. It was later called The Received Text [vis. Latin: The Textus Receptus TR]. 

Over Five Billion King James Bibles, the 1769 Edition [NOT the NEW King James Bibles based on the inferior Critical Greek Text] account for more sales world-wide than any other version or edition of the Holy Bible.

This is more than all other Bible Versions and Editions Combined.
______________________________________

 The Critical Text vs. The Traditional Text

(Also Known As The Received Text , The Textus Receptus  TR , and The Authorised Version AV and AKJV)

By Dr. David Sorenson

 

So, Dr. Sorenson, “I hear You are King James Only.”
 
No, I’m Traditional Text only. But if you come to the view and the conviction of being Traditional Text only, you will be Only King James.

The issue is not translational.


Marketing ploys by publishing companies with little basis in reality would have us to believe that the new versions  are:
 

  • Easier to read.

  • More modern.

  • More accurate (Not  true)
     

The truth is that the KJV remains The most popular. (is still the most popularly read Bible in America). Over five billion copies of the King James (1769) is greater than all the other versions and editions combined.


The issue comes down to the textual issue. By That, I refer to the underlying Greek text. I guess we could say texts, plural but particularly that of the New Testament. On the one hand is the Traditional Text from which the only major English translation is the King James Version of the Bible. The Traditional Text.

On the other hand, is the Critical Text sometimes called the eclectic text from whence all the other translations come. And some will say well there really is no difference between them. The difference you could amount to is just the footnotes in the bottom of a page. (This is Not true) He was not dishonest but just repeating what someone had told him.

We’re Grateful.

 

Thank you, Lord, for DailySpurgeon.com  a website to encourage and support personal devotions to the Lord Jesus. This ministry started with sending e-mails of Faith’s Checkbook by Charles H. Spurgeon to Jon Edward Riley and others he would include.. 

Jon was called home by his loving Father in Heaven on January 16, 2021.

His  memory is honored here, giving honor to whom honor is due. We pray that through this and all other instrumentalities that God may effect, many will be born again, challenged, encouraged, and supported to grow in personal devotion to the Lord Jesus Christ while being conformed to His image; that they might be the firstborn among many brethren.. Romans 13:7   Romans 8:28-29

 

A PRAYER OF GRATITUDE:  by Jon Edward Riley, 

(February 12, 1971- January16, 2021)

From an Indigenous, Irish, well beloved All-American son giving a prayer of gratitude to the Lord for  in: “The heart of Freedom”

INDIAN SCOUT POST NO 1 Burial grounds at White Shield, North Dakota.

… a compassionate prayer of gratitude, thanking the Lord for the Military Service of Native-American Scouts serving the United States of America. …the land of the free and the home of the Brave.

________________________________________

Jon loved to say, “I’m a blood bought, born-again child of God!” to anyone he happened to meet.

… Jon’s testimony is 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 present with the LORD in glory forever. One with whom we’ll one day 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 and loving heart.

SACRED LITERATURE: The Pilgrim’s Progress by John Bunyan

 

Note: Spurgeon was taught to read at a very early age and read The Pilgrim’s Progress for the first time when he was six years old. He would return to re-read it over 100 times.  He made many references to it in his sermons as Pastor of  The Metropolitan Tabernacle in London.

Excerpt from Sermon:  II. § 5 THE SWEETNESS OF THIS MYSTERY, 

WHICH IS  CHRIST IN YOU

         

"Christ in us is Christ reigning." reminds me [Spurgeon] of Mr. Bunyan’s picture in The Pilgrim’s Progress. of [the town of] Mansoul, …when the Prince Immanuel laid siege to it, and Diabolus from within the city strove to keep him out. It was a, hard time for Mansoul then; but when at last the battering rams [ancient weapons of war] had broken down the gates, and the silver trumpets sounded, and the prince’s captains entered the breach, then on a day the prince himself did ride down the city’s streets, while liberated citizens welcomed him with all their hearts, hung out all their streamers, and made the church towers rock again as the bells rang out merry peals [melodies], for the king himself was come. Up to the castle of the heart [main castle] he rode in triumph, and took his royal throne to be henceforth the sole lord and king of the city.

Christ in you is a right royal word. Christ swaying his scepter from the center of your being over every power and faculty, desire and resolve, bringing every thought into captivity to himself, oh, this is glory begun, and the sure pledge of heaven. Oh for more of the imperial sovereignty of Jesus; it is our liberty to be absolutely under his sway.

 

Spurgeon’s Full Sermon:  Christ in You, May 13, 1883 Scripture: Colossians 1:27 From: Metropolitan Tabernacle Pulpit, Volume 29 (cit. II. The Mystery of this is Christ In You, the hope of glory.

A Spurgeon sermon of COMFORT, CONDOLENCE and COMPASSION 

No Tears in Heaven  Revelation 7:17 A message of Comfort (Christian Sermons and Audio books SFX) Delivered  August 6th 1865, recorded by Charles Koelsch. (ca. 2018)
