The Old Paths versus New Divinity

… men as Sydney Houghton, Sidney Norton and Iain Murray, to clean up those paths and lead the way to world-wide revival.

     At that time, the name of William Huntington was often on the lips of the conference delegates. This man of poor origins and little education was mightily used of God in the saving of souls and his numerous works were read avidly by all social classes both at home and abroad. From a preacher in the fields and dock-yards, Huntington became pastor of an ever growing …

Putting an End to Sin

… as a reaction to a New Focus article by Jonathan Bayes under the title ‘Propitiation for the World: Some Thoughts on 1 John 2:2b.’

     In this article, the author does his best to explain away the meaning of ‘whole world’, and also the propitiation the world from sin. Indeed, he relates propitiation of sin merely to ‘ours only’ in the text and not to ‘world’s.’ The original is so long that I cannot possibly reproduce it but a number of you have the NF and might be …

Missionary McCoy

… We believe also that we are as desirous for Indian reforme &c. as any other part of the world and we think that there is not one Minister in our Association but what would use all the influince he has for the benifit of youre establishment.”

     Though sharing McCoy’s evangelistic aims, the Association rejected his Church’s application because of its Baptist Board connections. They argued that the Board had not support McCoy’s work as promised and showed a despotic …

John Paul II

… the lodges are mere pale reflections. It arose amongst the ranks of those who wished to force a world-wide, man-made, occult system onto the masses. Theirs is an absolute, tyrannical plan to enslave all men’s bodies, souls and spirits and make them willing but servile pawns in the hands of a hierarchy of self-styled Eunuchs.

     These worldly separatists bow to their doting Pontifex Maximus and proclaiming themselves the very Body of Christ, the offspring of the Queen of Heaven. As …

Be Sure Your Sins Will Find You Out

… 5:18). The significance of the words “when all is fulfilled,” is taken to mean that after this world is no more and the Day of Judgement has passed there will be no more law. Here we must distinguish between God’s eternal standards and the law that reveals them to us. Romans 3 and 7 show the function of the law. It holds up before us a mirror of our own sinful state so that “every mouth may be stopped, and all the world may become guilty before God.” (3:19). The law is not there as …

Contra Amyraldianism

… and comprehensive. Peter’s particular fish are not to be nosed-turned-up at and are to be found world-wide and in every sea and every true mariner loves them and searches them out. However, the report from the bluff that Petty-Admiral Amyraldus docks in Dordrecht’s Kalkhaven is merely a waft of Scotch mist. Does not the Second Head of Dordrecht Doctrine in our Maritime Law Book, Article 8, not only give full licence to Governor Stone’s method but lays down the rule that it is the only …

Letter on Scientology

… avoid defeat. Remember, we are talking about an extremely rich and powerful organisation which has world conquest as its aim. Scientology is a warring movement. If Germany failed in its go-it-alone attempt to outlaw Scientology, this science-fiction-orientated army would grow by leaps and bounds. In order to rid Germany of the movement, which is looked on here as a commercial and political enterprise rather than a religion, the government will have to do its homework and plan the campaign …

The Development of German Pietism

… was on exegetical, evangelical preaching. Missionaries were sent from this area to the New World and such as Theodor Freylinghausen, called by Joel Beeke the ‘Forerunner of the Great Awakening’ provided George Whitefield with his pattern of preaching and evangelism. India was supplied with missionaries from these churches long before Carey’s outreach. The Reformed pietistic revival which lasted for over a century, caused Neander, Spener, Franke, Gerhardt and Bengel to model their …

Joseph Bellamy and True Religion Delineated

… Baptist thinking so radically that it became an evangelistic force second to none in the world. As Andrew Fuller claimed indebtedness to Bellamy for his ideas underlining his work The Gospel Worthy of All Acceptation, and as this book has been labelled the “health-restoring purgative to the sluggishness of our age” and “the shot heard around the world in this spiritual offensive,”  we ought to examine the sources which Fuller used. Indeed, by rights, if pre-eminence is …

Come and Welcome Letter

… without distinction” but the real Bunyan denies this, arguing that “no rational man in the world will conclude” that John 6 refers to all and not some. Bunyan explains that a conditional call would entail God saying “I will if you will” but here God is saying “I will and you shall”. Thus Bunyan stresses the discriminating work of the gospel, writing, “The gift intended in the text must be restrained to some, to a gift that is given by way of speciality by the Father to the …
