Meditations- John 1:22-23 “Who art thou?”

GuidetohisWord

“And they asked him, What then? Art thou Elias? And he saith, I am not. Art thou that prophet? And he answered, No./ Then said they unto him, Who art thou? that we may give an answer to them that sent us. What sayest thou of thyself?”

When we speak of being foreknown it is the absolute certainty of Truth that settles the matter. It was certainly puzzling for the Psalmist. “My substance was not hid from thee!” he declares awed by the power of the Lord God,”and in thy book all my members were written, which in continuance were fashioned, when as yet there was none of them(Psalm 139:15-16). Flesh evidently cannot settle the matter since our memory prepares only for a short span which is blip in the eternal time. Our corruptible body is dissolved and all our glory like that of grass shall no longer knows…

Meditations- Pr.6:20-35 “Caul vs.Heart”

GuidetohisWord

“Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life.(4:23).” Heart is the highway you establish by faith so we are in the presence of God and we are not merely asking to satisfy our lusts but according to His purpose. With all our heart and mind we seek Him.

For whosoever keeps the heart and follows the way of life, troubles that come from adversary are like smoke. “God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble./ Therefore will not we fear, though the earth be removed, and though…

Meditations-Pr.6:20-23 “The way of life”

GuidetohisWord

“For the commandment is a lamp; and the law is light; and reproofs of instruction are the way of life:(v.23)”

Here we have a verse to give us an idea of how exceeding broad the way of life it is. What is life? St James compares it to vapor. “Whereas ye know not what shall be on the morrow. For what is your life? It is even a vapour, that appeareth for a little time, and then vanisheth away(Jas.4:14).” This being the case life of man is hardly fit to measure it. St John points the life of Jesus and says,’ In him was life; and the life was the light of men.” So the only measure is Jesus Christ who is the true Light,’which lighteth every man that cometh into the world.(John1:9). Jesus Christ the same (He.13:8).

The Law which the everlasting covenant covers ages, people that…
