The Christian Life
Christian Conduct - Exposition of Romans 12 by Martin Lloyd-Jones
We have seen that in the Christian life, everything must be considered in the light of our new position. I am so concerned about this because to me it is one of the most glorious aspects of the Christian faith and is certainly the key to successful Christian living.
Christian Effort by James Henley Thornwell
The life of the Christian is not a life of inactivity and ease. He becomes the servant of God by receiving the Lord Jesus Christ, and is sent into his Master's vineyard for the purpose of working for his Master's glory.
My Whole Life is a Continual Conversion by Alexander Whyte
My old and honored friend Dr. Elder Cumming of Glasgow, in his admirable appreciation of Fraser expresses his regret that Fraser so often uses the word "conversion" concerning his whole Christian life. But after giving the fullest consideration to what that deeply experienced and deservedly eminent evangelical preacher says concerning Fraser's frequent use of the word "conversion," I cannot share with him in that criticism and complaint of his.
Religious Conversation by Samuel Miller
To be able to introduce the great subject of religion, in an easy, seasonable, and acceptable manner, in the daily intercourse of society, is a most precious talent, the uses of which are more various, more rich, more numerous, and more important, than almost any that can be mentioned.
The Believer's Inability on Account of Remaining Sin by John Newton
I have been sitting perhaps a quarter of an hour with my pen in my hand, and my finger upon my upper lip, contriving how I should begin my letter.-A detail of the confused incoherent thoughts which have successively passed through my mind, would have more than filled the sheet..,
The Christian & the World by I. C. Herendeen
The Christian is plagued by three great, powerful and subtle enemies-”the world, the flesh and the devil.” They are terrible foes which must be overcome if we are to be saved.
The Christian Race by J. C. Andrews
"Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us. Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God." - Heb. 12:1-2
The Christian's Warfare by Robert Murray M'Cheyne
A believer is to be known not only by his peace and joy, but by his warfare and distress. His peace is peculiar: it flows from Christ, it is heavenly, it is holy peace. His warfare is as peculiar: it is deep-seated, agonizing, and ceases not till death.
The Nature and Necessity of a Public Profession of Religion by Charles Hodge
Although religion is thus retiring in its character, and although it consists, in a great measure, in the secret intercourse of the soul with God, it nevertheless has its social and public relations, which render it impossible that a true Christian should desire to keep the fact of his being a Christian a secret from the world.
The Practical Influences of Faith by John Newton
The use and importance of faith, as it respects a sinner's justification before God, has been largely insisted on; but it is likewise of great use and importance in the daily concerns of life. It gives evidence and subsistence to things not seen, and realizes the great truths of the Gospel, so as that they become abiding and living principles of support and direction while we are passing through this wilderness.
The Sphere and Object of the Christian Life by St. George's Fellowship
The life of a regenerated soul finds expression in a desire to love the Lord his God with all his heart, soul, strength and mind and his neighbour as him self. To fulfil this desire, to know the way in which he should humbly walk, the Christian searches the Scriptures and seeks to obey the commandments revealed in it..
The Bible Doctrine of the Separated Life: Part I by Johannes G. Vos
The question of the separated life is a very important one, not only because it is a practical question which must be faced by every thoughtful Christian, but also because of the doctrinal ramifications that it has.
The Bible Doctrine of the Separated Life: Part II by Johannes G. Vos
Scripture recognizes a classification of things or actions which are commonly called adiaphora, or "things indifferent." This term must not be misunderstood.
The Bible Doctrine of the Separated Life: Part III by Johannes G. Vos
The principle of the sufficiency of Scripture as the standard of faith and conduct is involved in the problem of the separated life. Separation is sometimes demanded from things which Scripture does not declare or imply to be sinful.
The Bible Doctrine of the Separated Life: Part IV by Johannes G. Vos
Those who wish to add to what God has spoken in Scripture certain man-made regulations concerning things indifferent often take this position because they believe these rules necessary in order to prevent various evils.
Discerning Providential Guidance - Part I by Samuel Pike
How may a person, who is desirous of following the dictates of providence, in every respect, know the mind and will of God in any particular circumstance, whether temporal or spiritual?
Discerning Providential Guidance - Part II by Samuel Pike
We are not to be guided by any unaccountable impulses and impressions. There are many who frequently feel such impressions upon their minds, and are inclined to pay a very strict regard unto them.
Duties & Discouragements by Richard Sibbs
[It will not be difficult] to resolve that question which some require help in, namely, whether we ought to perform duties when our hearts are altogether averse to them. To be satisfied on this point, we must take account of certain things.
Earnest Heed to the Message by Robert Murray M'Cheyne
Could we look into the secret history of believers, what woeful declensions might be pointed out. How many, who began the conflict well, have fallen under the blows of Apollyon. How many are there of whom God complains: "What iniquity have ye found in me that ye are gone far from me" (Jeremiah 2:5).
