Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Pacific Expositor, 1861, Vol. 2 It is by free, sovereign grace we are saved. There was no Medi ator to be found, but God's dear Son. He only was fitted to stand between God and sinners, and make them to be at one. And it so pleased the Father to give his Son - he did not spare his own Son, but freely gave him to die for us - and gave him with all fulness dwelling in him, that he might make peace through his cross, and reconcile all things unto himself. The great work of God's Son, was to lay the foundation of our peace with God. Accordingly he Offered himself apropiatory sacrifice for our sins. He who knew no sin, was made sin for us, that we might be made the righteousness Of God in him. On the cross we see the expiatory victim, the meritorious ground of peace. God is just, and yet the justifier of them that believe in Jesus, by whom peace is preached, and pardon is offered. God in Christ is reconciling the world unto himself, and hath given unto us the word of reconciliation. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Though when the first lonely exile was here carried to his grave, this quiet spot seemed full far secluded from the haunts of the living, the tide of population from this growing city is sweeping beyond it and surging up around its peaceful retreats. The city authorities have given orders for the removal of the dead and for converting this into a public square. For a burial place so recent, it is already populous with dead. Six years ago, nearly five thousand were resting there in peace. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Expositor, 1878, Vol. 8 It is this new and larger conviction which gives form and colour to the thoughts recorded in the Chapter before us. True, he does not once utter that assured hope of a life beyond the grave which found such splendid expression in the closing Verses of Chapter xix. But, as I have just said, that hope was based on the conviction that the present life is not strictly and adequately retributive; and it is t/zz's conviction, still new and strange to his mind, on which his thoughts now work, seeking to define and formulate it. So that if, for the present, he says nothing more of the great hope which had brought light into his darkness, if he seems to sink to a lower level of meditation, lze sinks on{y to 1113 level on w/zz'c/z l'zz's Izapa rests is at work on t/ze basis on w/zz'c/z it stands, making it more solid and strong. If, therefore, we would do him justice, we must not conceive of him as lapsing from his hope into his old mood of scepticism and despair, but.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Expositor, Vol. 22 There is grace as well as truth in these creative words which has not always been observed. For it was a delicate situation which one less gracious and refined would almost certainly have spoiled. But both by gesture and by judg ment all His own He bore it up into a region in which the natural bonds of home and kindred were transcended but not destroyed, and in which everything was made to rest upon the spiritual principle of the practice of the will of God. Where that Obtained, there was the basis as there were the bonds of a holy family in truth, potentially as vast as the human family itself. So without a hint of censure or even of impatience towards His too obtrusive friends He simply re-affirmed His principle in relation to the family, His own and every other, making it consist of those, the old and young alike, who chose to do the Father's will and who in conse quence were bound to Him by ties as dear as those of mother, sister brother. These were His next of kin in fact and fully, who, m the words of thefourth Evangelist, were born not of blood, nor of the will of the ﬂesh, nor of the will of man, but of God. It was no doubt upon the same occasion that a certain woman catching sight of Jesus' mother lifted up her voice and broke into fervent praises of her blessedness. And once again, without disclaiming aught of the truth extolled, Jesus took and changed it into a form in keeping with his master-thought.

Unfortunately, the Professor and his Critic are still at issue on various points of more or less interest, and especially on the main question, What was the locality of the Churches of Galatia '2 This being a matter of the greatest importance to a right understanding Of the personal history and work of the great Apostle, and to the determination of the order, date, and true interpretation of his earlier epistles, I have been encouraged by the known wishes of several learned friends to try to clear up some Of the points now left in dispute, and to ascertain, as far as I may be able, which of the rival theories is the better entitled to our acceptance.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Expositor, 1884, Vol. 7 The line of thought we are about to call in question is worked out mainly in the first and second chapters of his work, which are headed respectively by the words Biogenesis and Degeneration. In the first Mr. Drummond takes up the dictum of Science, that life can only spring from life, and shews that this law holds good in the spiritual no less than in the natural world. Time was when men of science, and even eminent men of science, held the theory of spontaneous generation - held, that life is capable of springing into being of itself, of being educed or evolved from that which is without life. And this theory was very welcome to the fanatical believers in Evolution, who reject the very thought of miracle, of supernatural intervention, of the presence, activity, nay, of the very existence of God. It is to the credit of this scientific school, therefore, that they have themselves conducted the experiments which disproved the theory of spontaneous generation; and that such men as Virchow, Huxley, Tyndall, have been foremost in pro claiming that life cannot be evolved from things without life, that it can only spring from a pre-existent life.

Faith, as the Oxford of to-day knows full well, is thejewel Of the soul alike to the critic and to the Simple-minded Christian, and so, too, it was to the eminent teacher of whom I have spoken. Nor need any Biblical critic quarrel with this un attering Mentor for the trenchant words which I have quoted. He surely meant that literary and textual criticism ought by this time to have led to something better than an exegesis which appeals pre dominantly to philological Specialists. He longed for a turn in the road, but he knew that a more satisfying exegesis could not possibly arise till the old Christian principle of a revelation of divine wisdom, not limited to a single race, had been more fully accepted by modern theology.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Expositor, 1893, Vol. 8 Prof. Mommsen fixes no exact date when the Roman government and populace began to distinguish clearly between Jews and Christians it was probably under the second dynasty, as Nero's measures Show it fully developed. From non-christian authorities alone no more than this can be inferred; and it is'specially impor tant that Prof. Mommsen has based his opinion solely on that evidence. But when we take into account Acts xviii. 15 as a trustworthy contemporary authority (as I have tried from archaeological facts, and Spitta from critical theory, to prove that it is), we can reach a more precise conclusion. As late as a.d. 53 - 4, the imperial officials regarded questions affecting Christians as a mere matter of Jewish law, and not coming under the imperial cognizance. In the decade that followed, the imperial view had grown clearer. May we not infer, as in the highest degree prob able, that it was the trial of the Roman citizen, Paul, that led to more thorough investigation - into the whole subject? He was the first Roman sent for trial on this charge before the central authority. As a Roman citizen he had a claim to a full investigation, such as would not in any circum stances have been granted to a mere provincial. He was treated with distinction, kept not under constraint but in custodia libera, ' and two years elapsed before his trial was completed.
