Reader, What do you think of these words? They are short words, and soon spoken; but they contain great things. These three words are the essence and substance of Christianity. If your heart can really go along with them, it is well with your soul: if not, you may be sure you have yet much to learn. Let me try to set before you in what sense “Christ is all;” and let me ask you, as you read, to judge yourself honestly, that you may not make shipwreck in the judgment of the last day.

IN the good Providence of God, we are permitted once again to keep watch during the hours of Good Friday around the Cross of Christ. We look, by faith, to the time when we shall see the sign of the Son of Man in heaven, and shall behold Him whom they pierced on His return to judge the earth and the world by fire. Until that day the servants can do no more than to heed and follow His command: "What I say unto you I say unto all, Watch." And therefore are we here to watch, with fear, with hope, with love, with searchings of heart, where our Lord was crucified. Here is that Holy Cross on which...

But will God so “bring every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ,” that no wandering thought will find a place in the mind, even while we remain in the body? So some have vehemently maintained; yea, have affirmed that none are perfected in love unless they are so far perfected in understanding, that all wandering thoughts are done away; unless not only every affection and temper be holy and just and good, but every individual thought which arises in the mind be wise and regular. This is a question of no small importance. For how many of those who fear God, yea, and love ...

Jesus of Galilee taught through stories, which even today contain the power to startle us out of our prejudices and preconceptions. Now Father Andrew M. Greeley, one of America's most beloved storytellers, examines the parables told by Jesus in search of a fuller understanding of the man and his message.

Examine yourselves to see if you are holding to your faith. Test yourselves! Do you not realize that Jesus Christ is in you? Now, faith is not complete until through experiment it becomes experience! When you test the Christ in you and prove from experience that it works, then you have the faith. But first you must find who Christ is, where he is, and what he is. You are not called upon to test a tradition of man as something on the outside, but Jesus Christ who is in you!

BRILLIANTS ¬ Selected from the Writings of C. H. SPURGEON *** ¬ The truest lengthening of life is to live while we live, wasting no time, but using every hour for the highest ends. *** So sweet are the comforts of the Lord, that not only the saints themselves may sing of them, but even the heavens and the earth may take up the song. It Cakes something to make a mountain sing; and yet the prophet summons quite a choir of them. Lebanon, and Sirion, and the high hills of Bashan and Moab, he would set them all singing because of Jehovah's grace to His own Zion. May we not also make mountains ...

A descriptive commentary on the Seven Last Words spoken by Christ as he was dying on the cross.

There are lone hearth-fires today, so many! And those who sit beside them, with the empty chair, cannot restrain the tears that will come. Yes, here's the Bible close by. But there's a heavy mood on that affects one's eyes so. One sits alone so much. There is some One unseen, just here, within reach. But somehow we don't realize His presence; it does not seem real. If we would quietly put a foot on the next step up, and then rise up to that foot, we can recognize His presence: it is real. Realizing is blessed, but... rare. It belongs to the mood; to the feelings. It is dependent on weather ...

Here are fascinating answers to a deep and wide variety of life-related questions that were asked of a spirit being known only as the Guide, and spoken by Eva Pierrakos. For many years, people have been reading the Pathwork lectures online at www.pathwork.org. Between monthly lectures, Eva also held Q&A sessions during which participants could ask questions related to the most recent lecture, personal problems, or understanding life in general. Until now, these have not been widely read. Jill Loree, Pathwork Helper and founder of Phoenesse, created this collection of her favorite Pathwork Q...

WHAT is Peace? We read much of it in the Bible, and we see something of it the varied picture of human life. It is the calm and settled happiness, which has its abiding-place deep down in the Christian's heart. It is the quiet repose of the soul which has found relief and satisfaction in Christ, and exists even amidst the trials and worries of this turbulent world. We sometimes see the mighty ocean lashed by storms, and tossed to and fro. But if we could look beneath the surface, we should find a calmness and rest ever reigning there, uninfluenced by the upper currents, and unruffled by the...
