DAILY, WEEKEND, AND HOLIDAY INTERNET EVANGELIZE TO THE WORLD MINISTRY

  Morning, November 30 Go To Evening Reading "And Amaziah said to the man of God, But what shall we do for the hundred talents which I have given to the army of Israel? And the man of God answered The Lord can give thee much more than this." —2 Chronicles 25:9 A fundamental question this was to the king of Judah, and it is of even more weight with the tried and tempted O Christian. To lose money is never pleasant, and when principle involves it, the flesh is not always ready to make the sacrifice. "Why lose that which may be so usefully employed? May not the truth itself be bought too dear? What shall we do without it? Remember the children and our small income!" All these things and a thousand more would tempt the Christian to put forth his hand to unrighteous gain or keep himself from carrying out his conscientious convictions when they involve profound loss. All men cannot view these matters in the light of faith, and even with the followers of Jesus, the ...

  Morning, November 29   Go To Evening Reading "Thou shalt not go up and down as a talebearer among thy people … Thou shalt in any wise rebuke thy neighbor, and not suffer sin upon him." —Leviticus 19:16 ,  17 Tale-bearing emits a threefold poison, injuring the teller, the hearer, and the person concerning whom the tale is told. Whether the report is true or false, we are forbidden to spread it by this precept of God's Word. The reputations of the Lord's people should be very precious in our sight, and we should count it a shame to help the devil to dishonor the Church and the name of the Lord. Some tongues need a bridle rather than a spur. Many glory in pulling down their brethren as if thereby they raised themselves. Noah's wise sons cast a mantle over their father, and he who exposed him earned a fearful curse. We may ourselves one of these dark days need forbearance and silence from our brethren, let us render it cheerfully to those who require it now. Be this...

  Morning, November 28 Go To Evening Reading "For I rejoiced greatly when the brethren came and testified of the truth in thee, even as thou walkest in the truth." —3 John 3 The truth was in Gaius, and Gaius walked in the truth. If the first had not been the case, the second could never have occurred, and if the second could not be said of him, the first would have been a mere pretense. Truth must enter the soul, penetrate and saturate it, or else it is useless. Doctrines held as a matter of creed are like bread in hand, which ministers no nourishment to the frame, but doctrine accepted by the heart is as food digested, which, by assimilation, sustains and builds up the body. In us, truth must be a living force, an active energy, an indwelling reality, and a part of the woof and warp of our being. If it be in us , we cannot henceforth part with it. A man may lose his garments or his limbs, but his inward parts are vital and cannot be torn away without absolute loss of ...

  Morning, November 27 Go To Evening Reading “Joshua, the high priest, standing before the angel of the Lord.” —Zechariah 3:1 In Joshua the High Priest, we see a picture of every child of God, who has been made nigh by the blood of Christ and has been taught to minister in holy things and enter into that which is within the veil. Jesus has made us priests and kings unto God, and even here upon earth, we exercise the priesthood of consecrated living and hallowed service. But this high priest is said to be “ standing before the angel of the Lord,” that is, standing to minister. This should be the perpetual position of every true believer. Every place is now God’s temple, and his people can genuinely serve him in their daily employments as they do in his house. They are to be constantly “ministering,” offering the spiritual sacrifice of prayer and praise, and presenting themselves as a “living sacrifice.” But notice where Joshua stands to minister; it is before the angel of ...
