BRIDGE TO BABYLON,  The 1881 Textual Criticism Controversy

(2 hrs. 49 mins.)

This video brings evidence of the explosion of over 1,000 published  English versions  of the Bible; all of which are based on the Critical Text. This modern Greek Text has been created from two Codices, Sinaiticus and Vaticanus from which variant readings have been rendered or invented by Westcott & Hort and/or  Nestle & Aland in an attempt to change, add or take away from the 1769 [1611] King James Version of the Holy Bible. This Critical Text has not prevailed because GOD Himself has, and always will, preserve and protect His inerrant, immutable  and infallible Revealed Holy Scripture from heresy, blasphemy, confusion and error.

 

______________________________________________

 

Note:

All Versions and editions of The Bible other than The King James Version, Edition of 1769, are based on the Critical Text, NOT  the Traditional Text that became known as the Textus Receptus [Received Text] after it was used first by believers in the First Pauline Church at Antioch.   Instead, ALL Critical Text Bibles follow New Greek Text created  by Westcott & Hort and Nestle & Aland sometimes based on the variant corrupted readings of the Codices Vaticanus and Sinaiticus. [Books of the Vatican and the Sinai] deemed inferior to the trustworthy Textus Receptus and the resulting 1769 Edition of The King James Version. KJV.

This video presents historical evidence explaining the explosion of over 100 published  English versions  of the Bible. This continuing attempt to replace, add or take away from the 1769 King James Version of the Holy Bible do not  prevail because GOD Himself preserves and protects His Holy Scripture from all heresy, blasphemy, confusion and error.

Note: The New King James Version does NOT follow the Greek text  of the Textus Receptus, but a Greek Text fabricated by Westcott and Hort and is therefore inferior to the  trustworthy 1769 [1611] King James Version, KJV!

JESUS CHRIST, THE MESSIAH, IS RISEN  INDEED! HE IS ALIVE FOREVERMORE!Resurrection Romans 6:3-5

3  Know ye not, that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into his death?
4 Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life.
5 For if we have been planted together in the likeness of his death, we shall be also in the likeness of his resurrection:

EASTER [Resurrection Sunday] IS NEVER OVER BECAUSE…

Jesus said:

John 11:25 -26
“I am the resurrection and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live:26 And whosoever liveth and believeth in me, shall never die. Believest  thou this?”  

2 Timothy 2:8-26
8 Remember that Jesus Christ of the seed of David was raised from the dead according to my [The apostle Paul’s] gospel.

9 Wherein I suffer trouble, as an evil doer, even unto bonds; but the word of God is not bound.

10 Therefore I endure all things for the elect's sakes, that they may also obtain the salvation which is in Christ Jesus with eternal glory.

11 It is a faithful saying: For if we be dead with him, we shall also live with him:

12 If we suffer, we shall also reign with him: if we deny him, he also will deny us:

13 If we believe not, yet he abideth [abides] faithful: he cannot deny himself.

14 Of these things put them in remembrance, charging them before the Lord that they strive not about words to no profit, but to the subverting of the hearers.

15 Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth [needs] not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.

16 But shun profane and vain babblings: for they will increase unto more ungodliness.

17 And their word will eat as doth a canker: of whom is Hymenaeus and Philetus;

18 Who concerning the truth have erred, saying that the resurrection is past already; and overthrow the faith of some.

19 Nevertheless the foundation of God standeth sure, having this seal, The Lord knoweth them that are his. And, let everyone that nameth the name of Christ depart from iniquity [sin] .

20 But in a great house there are not only vessels of gold and of silver, but also of wood and of earth [pottery] ; and some to honor, and some to dishonor.

21 If a man therefore purge himself from these, he shall be a vessel unto honor, sanctified, and meet [perfectly matched] for the master's use, and prepared unto every good work.

22 Flee also youthful lusts: but follow righteousness, faith, charity, peace, with them that call on the Lord out of a pure heart.

23 But foolish and unlearned questions avoid, knowing that they do gender strife.

24 And the servant of the Lord must not strive; but be gentle unto all men, apt to teach, patient,

25 In meekness instructing those that oppose themselves; if God peradventure [perhaps] will give them repentance to the acknowledging of the truth;

26 And that they may recover themselves out of the snare of the devil, who are taken captive by him at his will.

Jesus Christ [Messiah] (Anointed King)] the LORD GOD was born of a virgin 2026 years ago,    was crucified, then rose from the dead, victorious over sin, death and the grave and is here in the flesh from GOD, as His Church, The Body of Christ, and will live forever, time without end and   He, Himself, is coming again.

DAILY SPURGEON and DEVOTION written on and calendared for the exact date of  *A.D. June 9th.

 

 * “A.D.”  Does not mean “after death”  but is the Latin  abbreviation Anno Domini [the year of our Lord].

The Lord Jesus Christ has always existed since before eternity past as the WORD of God. He was born of a virgin 2026  years ago in Bethlehem of Judea, is alive today,  and is coming soon to receive and consummate the marriage to his betrothed bride; the Body of all redeemed believers.

 PRAYER 22, June 9th Part 2 of 10  THE PRESENCE OF GOD

       
We thank Thee, Lord, for every leaf [page] of the Book [The Holy Bible], not only for its promises which are inexpressibly sweet, but for its precepts [teachings] in which our soul delights, and especially for the revelation of Thy Son, our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.

 

O God, we thank Thee for the manifestation of Him even in the types and shadows of the Old Testament. These are inexpressibly glorious to us, full of wondrous value, inexpressibly dear because in them and through them we see the Lord. But we bless Thee much more for the clear light of the New Testament, for giving us the key to all the secrets of the Old Testament, for now, reading the scriptures of the new covenant, [New Testament] we understand the language of the old covenant and are made to joy and to rejoice therein.

 

[We praise and thank You for every jot and tittle of Your eternal Word  Matthew 5:18; Inspired (God-breathed), self-authenticating, providentially preserved and protected Holy Scripture, for ever settled in Heaven  Psalm 119:89  as Thy infinite, eternal, immutable, inerrant and infallible Written Word.

ANECDOTE 313:   TELLING EVERYTHING TO JESUS.


I remember when once my young heart ached in boyhood, when I first loved the Savior. I was far away from father and mother, and all I loved, and I thought my soul would burst; for I was an usher [teacher’s aide] in a school, in a place where I could meet with no sympathy or help.

 

Well, I went to my chamber, [bedroom] and told my little griefs into the ears of Jesus. They were great griefs to me then, *though they are nothing now. When I just whispered them on my knees into the ear of him who had loved me with an everlasting love, oh! it was so sweet, none can tell.

 

If I had told them to somebody else, they would have told them again; but he, my blessed confidant, he knows my secrets, and he never tells them. Oh! what can you do [you] that have got no Jesus to tell your troubles to?
 

*English (USA) spelling

FAITH’S CHECKBOOK  June 9th   A TRUSTWORTHY NAME
by C.H. Spurgeon 1834 – 1892
 

-I will also leave in the midst of thee an afflicted and poor  people, and they shall trust in the name of the Lord-   Zephaniah 3:12
 

-Y dejare en medio de ti un pueblo humilde y pobre, los cuales esperaran en el nombre de Jehova-  Sofonias 3:12 

When true religion is ready to die out among the wealthy it finds a home among the poor of this world, [who are] rich in faith. The Lord has even now his faithful remnant. Am I one of them? 

Perhaps it is because men are afflicted and poor that they learn to trust in the name of the Lord. He that hath no money must try what he can do on trust. He whose own name is good for nothing in his own esteem, acts wisely to rest in another name, even that best of names, the name of Jehovah.

God will always have a trusting people, and these will be an afflicted [crippled] and poor people.

Little as the world thinks of them, their being left in the midst of a nation is the channel of untold blessings to it [the world] .

 

Here we have the conserving salt which keeps in check the corruption which is in the world through lust [covetousness and greed].  Again, the question comes home to each one of us, Am I one of them? Am I afflicted [crippled, compromised] by the sin within me and around me? Am I poor in spirit, poor spiritually in my own judgment? Do I trust in the Lord?

That is the main business.

 

Jesus reveals the name, the character, and the person of God; am I trusting in Him? If so, I am left in this world for a purpose. Lord, help me to fulfill it.
 

Prayer:  Lord, thank you for Your promise. I do trust in your name, Lord Jesus knowing that in Your name I will be blessed and kept free from sin. Please use me as salt of the earth to stand against corruption, to be your reflection  of integrity and to faithfully trust in and follow You.  I’m  asking, in faith knowing that You always keep Your word. Thank You in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ.  Amen.


MORNING  June 9th "THE LORD HATH DONE GREAT THINGS FOR US, WHEREOF WE ARE GLAD. " —Psalm 126:3
 

 —Grandes cosas ha hecho Jehová con nosotros; Estaremos alegres. — Salmos 126:3  
 

SOME Christians are sadly prone to look on the dark side of everything, and to dwell more on what they have gone through than on what God has done for them. Ask for their impression of the Christian life, and they will describe their continual conflicts, their deep afflictions, their sad adversities, and the sinfulness of their hearts, yet with scarcely any allusion to the mercy and help which God has given them. But a Christian whose soul is in a healthy state will come forward joyously and say, "I will speak, not about myself, but to the honor of my God. He has brought me up out of a horrible pit, and out of the miry clay, and set my feet on a rock, and established my goings: and He has put a new song in my mouth, even praise to our God. The Lord has done great things for me, whereof I am glad." Such an abstract of experience as this is the very best that any  child of God can present. It is true that we endure trials, but it is just as true that we are delivered out of them. It is true that we have our corruptions, and mournfully do we know this, but it is quite as true that we have an all-sufficient Savior, who overcomes these corruptions, and delivers us from their dominion. In looking back, it would be wrong to deny that we have been in the Slough of Despond, [The “Swamp of Despondency” described in Bunyan’s Pilgrim’s Progress] and have crept along the Valley of Humiliation [op. cit], but it would be equally wicked to forget that we have been through them safely and profitably; we have not remained in them, thanks to our Almighty Helper and Leader who has brought us "out into a wealthy place."
The deeper our troubles, the louder our thanks to God, who has led us through all, and preserved us until now. Our griefs cannot mar [deface or vandalize] the melody of our praise; we reckon [rely-on , consider]  them to be the bass [lower supporting voice] part of our life's song, "He has done great things for us, whereof we are glad."

 

EVENING  June 9th    "SEARCH THE SCRIPTURES. " —John 5:39
 

—Escudriñad las Escrituras—Juan 5:39 

THE Greek word here rendered search signifies a strict, close, diligent, curious search, such as men make when they are seeking gold, or hunters when they are in earnest after game [hunting for food]. We must not rest content with superficially reading a chapter or two, but with the candle of the Spirit we must deliberately seek out the hidden meaning of the word. Holy Scripture requires searching—much of it can only be learned by careful study. There is milk for babes, but also meat for strong men. The rabbis wisely say that a mountain of matter hangs on every word, yes, on every tittle [crossing each “t”] of  Scripture. 
Tertullian [AD 160—230, The Carthaginian theologian] exclaims, "I adore the fullness of the Scriptures."  No man who merely skims the book of God can profit thereby; we must dig and mine until we obtain the hidden treasure. The door of the word only opens to the key of diligence. The Scriptures claim [merit and require]  searching. They are the writings of God, bearing the divine stamp and imprimatur—who shall dare to treat them with levity [light heartedly, seeking amusement and entertainment]?    He who despises them despises the God who wrote them. God forbid that any of us should allow our Bibles to become swift witnesses against us in the great day of account.

 

The word of God will repay searching. God does not bid us sift a mountain of chaff with here and there a grain of wheat in it, but the Bible is winnowed corn  [pure grain with no chaff]—we have but to open the granary [silo]  door and find it. Scripture grows on the student. It is full of surprises.


Under the teaching of the Holy Spirit, to the searching eye it glows with splendor of revelation, like a vast temple paved with wrought gold, and roofed with rubies, emeralds, and all manner of gems. No merchandise [is] like the merchandise of Scripture truth.

 

Lastly, the Scriptures reveal Jesus: "They [the Scriptures] are they which testify of Me."  No more powerful motive can be urged  [recommended earnestly and persistently]   on Bible readers than this: he who finds Jesus finds life, heaven, all things. Happy [is]  he who, searching his Bible, discovers his Savior.  

A SINNER’S  PRAYER 

 

Whosoever shall call on the name of the lord shall be saved. Acts 2:21

Pray, calling on the name of the Lord Jesus, like this. Won’t you? 

“Lord Jesus, I’m a sinner. I’m lost and hopeless to save myself. Without you and your blood that was shed for me and Your death on the cross  I would spend eternity in Hell’s fire.

Thank you Lord Jesus that You love me and died for me before I was born and that You have always loved me and will never reject or turn your back on me. I know You are the Way, the Truth and the Life and that no one can come to the Father but by You.  

Thank you, Father that You have caused for me to see myself as I am; a lost sinner.  But,  because of Your love and goodness, You have made a way and given me the desire to come to You, to turn away from my sin and to trust in You, Lord Jesus.  You took my place on the cross and provided the way for  me to be forgiven. Thank You.
Thank You that You prompted a desire in me to believe in You, the only begotten  Son of God who died on the cross to be the sacrifice that would  atone for my sins.

Thank You, Father for Your love that allowed Jesus to suffer and die in my place. Thank You that You raised Jesus from the dead. He is RISEN and is ALIVE and in Him we are victorious over sin, death and the grave and in Christ Jesus I am free. You raised Jesus from the dead, gave Him a Glorified body and after he was seen by many witnesses on earth You took Him up to reign with You  in heaven.  Thank you, Father,  for saving me in the name, of Your only begotten Son, the Lord Jesus Christ. Amen.

Romans 6:11  Thank you, Holy Spirit, that you always give witness to and exalt the Lord Jesus Christ. 
John 16:8-11With all my heart, thank you Lord for saving me.
Live Your life in me,  Lord Jesus, in Your name I pray, Amen.

­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­Please allow us to share in the  joy of your having received  the new birth with you and the heavenly angels in Heaven as they rejoices over each redeemed sinner. Luke 15:7

1 John 4:1- Can 3

Beloved ones, don’t be believing every spirit [everything you hear] but be testing the spirit whether it is of God: because many false prophets have come out in the world. Here’s how you know the Spirit of God: Every spirit [voice] that confesseth  [confesses] that Jesus Christ is come [is here] in the flesh, having come out of God, is of God: and every spirit [voice] 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 ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world.

 Therefore:     I confess [declare and avow] that “Jesus Christ is come [is here] in the flesh.”

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

In Defense of I John 5:7

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.”

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.

Therefore, The incarnate WORD of GOD, [Jesus *Christ

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.

Why Cults, False Teachers, Heretics and Critical Text adherents  have tried to take   1 John 5:7   out of the Holy Bible.     

 

By Dr. Phil Stringer

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

 

Daniel Webster [Writer of the Webster’s Dictionary] was once asked. “Does it not bother you 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.”

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 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.

PRAYER 21, June  1st   Part 2 of 8   BOLDNESS AT THE THRONE OF GRACE

 

Now, Lord, we confess our guilt before Thee with tenderness of heart, and we pray Thee seal home [bring home] to every believer here that full and free, that perfect and irreversible charter of forgiveness which Thou gavest [You gave] to all them that put their trust in Jesus Christ.

Lord! Thou hast [You have] said it:

 

“If we confess our sins, Thou art merciful and just to forgive us our sins and to save us from all unrighteousness.”

 

There is the sin confessed: there is the ransom accepted: we therefore know we have peace with God, and we bless that glorious one who hath come “to finish transgression, to make an end of sin,”to bring in everlasting righteousness, which righteousness by faith we take unto ourselves and Thou dost impute [reckon through substitutionary atonement] unto us.

 

Now, Lord, wilt Thou be pleased to cause all Thy children’s hearts to dance within them for joy? Oh! help Thy people to come to Jesus again today. May we be looking unto Him today as we did at the first. May we never take off our eyes from His Divine person, from His infinite merit, from His finished work, from His living power, or from the expectancy of His speedy coming to “judge the world in righteousness and the people with His truth.” 

 

[We praise You for the remarkable gift of salvation and forgiveness in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, Amen.]

ANECDOTE 299. June  1st   EXALTATION IN PRAYER.

 

I was much struck the other evening at a prayer meeting, by the prayer of one of our brethren, which came home to [touched] my heart. When he prayed, he said, “Lord, give me Mary’s place, Oh! that I might, with Mary sit For ever at my Master’s feet, And learn of him.”

 

He prayed that he might have her part, and always sit at the feet of Jesus. But, by and by, the good man kindled [fired] up in his prayer, and said,

“No, my Master, I have not asked enough of thee. Mary’s place is too low for me, if I may have a better.

 

Lift me up higher, Lord; give me John’s place.

Oh ! that I might, with favored John, Forever lean my head upon The bosom of my Lord.” Then again he pleaded for that higher degree of communion between the soul and Christ.

 

“Surely,” thought I, “now you have asked enough.” But, suddenly rising up to another flight on the wings of communion, like the eagle taking its last soar into the skies, he said,

 

“No, Lord, John’s place doth not suffice me. Thou hast lifted me from thy feet to thy bosom now from thy bosom to thy lips.” Then, quoting the words of the spouse,

 

“Let him kiss me with the kisses of his mouth, for thy love is better than wine” he sweetly paraphrased it thus,

 

“Let the lip of my petitioning meet the lip of thy benediction ; let the lip of my praise met the lip of thy acceptance; so shall the kiss be consummated and my joy be complete.”

 

Aye, and when we are favored to go through these stages of fellowship; to go from the foot to the bosom, from the bosom to the lip; to go from the mere learner and to be a friend and companion ; and then to go higher still to be lifted up and to feel our fellow ship with Christ, by standing as high as he does, and being on his lip; it is there the child of God, insensibly almost, [just barely felt] receives strength, and, 

like Elijah smitten by the angel, he rises up and finds his meat baked upon the coals, and eats thereof, and lives upon it for forty days to come.

 

Precious mode of feeding this!

FAITH’S CHECKBOOK June 1st GOD’S PROMISE KEEPS [Never Ends]

  by C.H. Spurgeon 1834 –1892

-CAST THY BREAD UPON THE WATERS: FOR THOU SHALT [SHALL] FIND IT AFTER MANY DAYS-   Ecclesiastes 11:1

 

-ECHA tu pan sobre las aguas; que despues de muchos dias lo hallarás- Eclesiastes 11:1

 

We must not expect to see an immediate reward for all the good we do; nor must we always confine our efforts to places and persons which seem likely to yield us a recompense for our labors.

The Egyptian casts [throws] his seed upon the waters of the Nile, where it might seem a sheer waste of corn. But in due time the flood subsides, the rice or other grain sinks into the fertile mud, and rapidly a harvest is produced.

 

Let us today do good to the unthankful and the evil. Let us teach the careless and the obstinate. Unlikely [unexpectedly] waters may cover hopeful soil.

 

Nowhere shall our labor be in vain in the Lord.

 

It is ours to cast [throw]  our bread upon the waters [to broadcast the good news of Jesus] ; it remains with God to fulfill the promise,

 

 -Thou shalt [you shall] find it- 

 

 He will not let His promise fail. His good word which we have spoken shall live, shall be found, shall be found by us. Perhaps not just yet, but some day

 

we shall reap what we have sown.

 

We must exercise our patience; for perhaps the Lord may exercise it. 

 

 -After many days-, says the Scripture, and in many instances those days run into months and years, and yet 

 

the Word stands true.

 

God’s promise will keep; let us mind [pay attention] that we keep the precept [teaching], and keep [obey] it this day [today].

 

Prayer: Thank you, Lord Jesus, that God is always faithful to His word, and He helps us to plant seeds of faith everywhere, so that in due time we may find the blessed increase. I claim this promise in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ for His sake, Amen.

MORNING June 1st   "THE EVENING AND THE MORNING WERE THE FIRST DAY."
Genesis 1:5

 

–Y fue la tarde [noche] y la mañana un [el primer] día —Génesis 1:5

 

WAS it so even in the beginning? Did light and darkness divide the realm of time in the first day?

Then little wonder if I also have changes in my circumstances 

 

from the sunshine of prosperity to the midnight of adversity.

 

It will not always be the blaze of noon in concerns of my soul ; I must expect at seasons to mourn the absence of my former joys, and 

 

seek my Beloved in the night.

 

Nor am I alone in this, for all the Lord's beloved ones have had to sing the mingled song of judgment and of mercy, of trial and deliverance, of mourning and of delight.

 

It is one of the arrangements of Divine providence that day and night will not cease either in the spiritual or natural creation until we reach the land of which it is written,

 

"there is no night [darkness] there."

 

What our heavenly Father ordains is wise and good.

 

What, then, my soul, is it best for you to do? Learn first to be content with this divine order, and

be willing, with Job, to receive evil from the hand of the Lord as well as good.

 

Study next, to make the outgoings of the morning and the evening to rejoice. Praise the Lord for the sun of joy when it rises, and for the gloom of evening as it falls.

There is beauty both in sunrise and sunset, sing of it, and glorify the Lord.

 

Like the nightingale, pour forth your notes [Sing] at all hours.

 

Believe that the night is as useful as the day. The dews of grace fall heavily in the night of sorrow. The stars of promise shine forth gloriously amid the darkness of grief.

 

Continue your service under all changes. If in the day your watchword be labor, at night exchange it for watch. Every hour has its duty, so continue in your calling as the Lord's servant until He suddenly appears in His glory.

My soul, your evening of old age and death is drawing near, dread it not, for it is part of the day; and the Lord has said,

 

"I will cover him all the day long."

EVENING June 1st  "HE WILL MAKE HER WILDERNESS LIKE EDEN. " —Isaiah 51:3

 

—Tornará su desierto como paraíso —Isaías 51:3

 

ENVISION with me a howling wilderness, a great and terrible desert, like to the Sahara. I perceive nothing in it to relieve the eye, all around I am wearied with a vision of hot and arid sand, strewn with ten thousand bleaching skeletons of wretched men who have expired in anguish, having lost their way in the pitiless waste. What an appalling sight! How horrible! A sea of sand without a bound, and without an oasis, a cheerless graveyard for a race forlorn [abandoned]!

 

But behold and wonder! Upon a sudden, up springing from the scorching sand I see a plant of renown, and as it grows it buds, the bud expands—it is a rose, and at its side a lily bows its modest head. Miracle of miracles, as the fragrance of those flowers is diffused, the wilderness is transformed into a fruitful field, and all around it blossoms exceedingly.

 

The glory of Lebanon is given unto it: the excellency of Carmel and Sharon. 


Call it not Sahara, call it Paradise.

 

Speak not of it any longer as the valley of the shadow of death, for where the skeletons lay bleaching in the sun, behold a resurrection is proclaimed, and up spring the dead, a mighty army, full of life immortal.

 

Jesus is that plant of renown, and His presence makes all things new. Nor is the wonder less in each individual's salvation.

 

Yonder [over there] I behold you, dear reader, cast out, an infant, un-swathed [with no blanket], unwashed, defiled with your own blood, left to be food for beasts of prey. 

 

But a jewel [a compassionate heart of flesh] has been thrown into your bosom by a divine hand, and for its sake you have been pitied and tended [taken care of] by divine providence; you are washed and cleansed from your defilement; you are adopted into heaven's family; the fair seal of love is on your forehead, and the ring of faithfulness is on your hand

 

—you are now a prince unto God, though once an orphan, cast away.

 

Exceedingly prize [esteem] the matchless power and grace that changes deserts into gardens, and makes the barren heart to sing for joy.

vis. Textus Receptus [The Received 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 Textus Receptus [received text] manuscripts of the New Testament and the Hebrew Masoretic Text of the Old Testament (The Jewish Tanakh)  These manuscripts are providentially protected of God, and always give a greater glory to God when compared to 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 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 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: … 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: every where 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.
