Nail pierced, Name Inscribed

15 “Can a woman forget her nursing child And have no compassion on the son of her womb? Even these may forget, but I will not forget you. 16“Behold, I have inscribed you on the palms of My hands; Your walls are continually before Me.

John: 17:3 – Knowing God Is Eternal Life

“This is eternal life, that they may know You, the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom You have sent.” John 17:3 This form of knowledge includes experience. I can not think of a verse I like more. Since knowing is experiencing and the prayer is to know God and Jesus Christ the verse 1097 […]

Chapter 5 – The Holy Ghost in the Gospel of John

The Holy Spirit A B Simpson Chapter 5 – The Holy Ghost in the Gospel of John And then finally, above all else, go forward and use the gift of His love. "Draw out, and bear to the governor of the feast."

He knows how to suggest the promise in the time of depression. He knows how to say, "It is written," and put into our hand the sword of the Spirit, when the adversary's wiles are trying and perplexing us.

Chapter 6 – The Comforter “And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you forever.” John 14: 16. These three chapters contain Christ’s deepest teachings concerning the Holy Ghost. I. THE NAME, THE COMFORTER. This is not a very happy translation. The Greek word is […]
