Entire Sanctification

By Rev. James M. Gray, D.D.

This article has a history. Some time ago a western correspondent sent us an earnest letter urging his view of holiness, and putting certain questions to us to be answered. The letter was so frank and cordial as well as earnest that we fully intended to reply to it at length, and took it with us on a journey to prepare an answer. But somehow it became mislaid or was left behind on the train, and the circumstance dropped out of mind. Later the notes we had prepared in reply came to light, and we believe their publication will interest …

Fundamental Or Instrumental?

By Rev. Paul Rader

Where the ordinary man speaks of “the end of the world,” the Bible knows no such phrase. There never will be an end of the world as far as the Scriptures are concerned. God divides time up into ages, periods where He is testing men out under a certain kind of revealed truth. We are not tested today by what Moses said to the Jews, but we are tested by what Christ Jesus has spoken. The Holy Ghost in our age is convincing the world of sin “Because they believe not on Him.” We are judged, in this our day, …

A Farewell Message

By Rev. Paul Rader

“As they ministered to the Lord, and fasted, the Holy Ghost said, Separate me, Barnabas and Saul, for the work whereunto I have called them.” —Acts 13:2

I come this morning, I am sure, with a surprise, in a sense, to this audience.

For some little time before I left on my trip around the world, there was a discussion as to what my future relationship to The Moody Church should be. At that time I handed in my resignation and then left for the trip.

Since I have returned, I have been much in prayer, as has the Committee, …

Reformation And Regeneration

By Rev. Paul Rader

Helpful for the Sunday school lesson for September 19, 1920.

All reformation is after the pattern of Matthew 12:43, “When the unclean spirit is gone out of a man, he walketh through dry places, seeking rest, and findeth none.” When one form of amusement is cut off from the wicked-doer, he immediately sets about to find another set; when one mudhole is denied the pig, he immediately proceeds to find another. By law men have tried to make men keep Sunday. Their first purpose was that men might go to church, but, though we have more Sunday enforcement than the …

The Eschatology Of The Apocalypse

By W. Leon Tucker

The last book of the Bible is not a riddle, it is a revelation. The last book of the Bible is not a puzzle-picture, it is a prophecy. The last book of the Bible is not a confounding, it is an unveiling. Whatever begins in the first book of the Bible, whatever commences in Genesis, continues through the rest of the Bible, and comes to a conclusion in the last book of the Bible. All the way from the “In” of Genesis to the “Amen” of Revelation we have an unfolding of God’s purpose. The last book of the Bible …

What Prayer Will Accomplish

By Rev. Paul Rader

The 34th Psalm is quite a catalogue of things that prayer will accomplish. It starts off concerning praise. Now, praise is the highest form of worship. Prayer is something like water; it refreshes, it cleanses, it greatly aids growth; but remember it is steam—powerful steam—when it is heated. So hot prayer, believing prayer, turns to praise (v. 1).

The fighting attitudes of man and beast are interesting and stimulating, but prayer brings the soul to a fighting attitude very different from any flesh feeling. The psalmist speaks of his attitude caused by prayer as “boast in the Lord” (v. 2). …

In The Inward Part

By Rev. Paul Rader

“Glorify God in your body.” Through the five senses of the body we become conscious of the outside world,—we can say that we know the world in which we live, for this world has made its way to us through these senses, and our great consciousness within cries out, “I know.”

Within this body is a soul. The soul has senses also,—I do not know how many; but with these senses it reaches out and knows its kind. For those the soul loves it would sacrifice and sometimes die. The consciousness within the soul rises up and says of the …

The Menace Of Evolution

By A.C. Dixon, D.D.

(An address given at the Second World Conference on Christian Fundamentals, May 20, 1920. Not revised by author).

“God said.” —Genesis 1:3

“Yea, hath God said?” —Genesis 3:1

“In the midst of the throne...stood a Lamb as it had been slain.” —Revelation 5:6

The first verse of Genesis reads like a perfect order, “In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.” There is no nebulosity about that. The heaven and the earth were clearly understood, and God made both of them perfect. The earth became without form and void.

Dr. Anstey, in his fascinating book, “The Romance of …

Jesus, The Prophet

By Dr. R.A. Torrey

(An address given at the Second World Conference on Christian Fundamentals at The Moody Church Tabernacle, May 20, 1920. Not revised by author).

“Jehovah thy God will raise up unto thee a prophet from the midst of thee, of thy brethren, like unto me; unto him ye shall hearken.

“And Jehovah said unto me, They have well said that which they have spoken.

“I will raise them up a prophet from among their brethren, like unto thee; and I will put my words in his mouth, and he shall speak unto them all that I shall command him.

“And it …

The World Movements Of Today In The Light Of The Bible

By A.C. Dixon, D.D.

Address at the Second World Conference on Christian Fundamentals, Chicago, May 20, 1920.

“And I saw three unclean spirits like frogs come out of the mouth of the dragon, and out of the mouth of the beast, and out of the mouth of the false prophet. For they are the spirits of devils, working miracles, which go forth unto the kings of the earth and of the whole world, to gather them to the battle of that great day of God Almighty.” —Revelation 16:13–14

“But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye …
