Think what an injury and injustice would be inflicted upon all the honest men in London if the thieves were never punished for their roguery. It would be making the innocent suffer if you allowed the guilty to escape. God, therefore, not out of arbitrary choice, but from necessity of rightness, must…

God recently allowed me to see Jesus through the eyes of someone seeing Him for the first time. Having the advantage of knowing how the story ends, we can easily forget the cost of our redemption and the love of

We are sometimes apt to think that a charge that is unfounded is very cruel to us. I have heard people say sometimes, and I have laughed when I have heard them say it, “Mr. So-and-so has charged me with such-and-such a thing, but I am quite innocent. I should not have minded if I had been guilty.” I…

If you send a kite or a buzzard flying over a tract of country, what will it see? Why, it will be looking out for all the dead carcasses, and it will be sure to be able to tell you how much carrion there is about. But if you send a dove over that same space, it won’t have an eye for it, for it has no…

An officer in India had tamed a leopard. From the time when it was quite a kitten he had brought it up, until it went about the house like a cat, and everybody played with it. But he was sitting in his chair one day asleep, and the leopard licked his hand—licked it in all innocence. But as he licked,…

I would have you do what John is said to have done with Cerinthus, who denied the deity of Christ. John was in a bath to which the unbeliever came. It is said that John hurried out directly for fear that he should be contaminated by contact with Cerinthus, or lest the bath should fall on them both. Something…

New evidence is sometimes brought into court that completely changes the aspect of the case. If you have been on a jury, you would not like to tell your fellow jurors how many times you have changed your mind while you have heard the evidence. If you have listened attentively, I expect you have had half…

When a farmer comes to thrash out his wheat and get it ready for the market, there are two things that he desires—that there may be plenty of it of the right sort, and that when he takes it to market he may be able to carry a clean sample there. He does not look on the quantity alone, for what is the…

Many years ago a certain prince visited the Spanish galleys, where a large number of convicts were confined, chained to their oars to toil on without relief—I think nearly all of them condemned to a life sentence. Being a great prince, the King of Spain told him that he might in honor of his visit set…

By the Holy Spirit’s application of our Lord’s merits believers are completely cleansed, and there remains neither spot nor wrinkle on their acceptance with Him. But though a man may be perfectly clean who leaves his bath, yet his feet may be soiled as he goes to his room and he needs again to wash them.…

Where does a man begin cleansing and reforming? Why, in his own house, of course. He might perhaps feel that he must have some filth in the farmyard, but not in his own sitting room. There may be much evil abroad that he cannot remove, yet he can begin cleaning up at home. If we want to do any good in…

To the unclean and unbelieving, holy things will always be impure. You might as well forbid the sun to shine because, when its beams fall upon a dunghill, it brings forth unwholesome reeking. Yes, but that same sun, when it falls upon the flowers, makes them shed their aromatic perfume on every hand.…

If you had walked through some of the shady glens around the city of Jerusalem, you might have heard in the distance the cry, “Unclean! Unclean! Unclean!”—a bitter wail that sounded like the sighing of despair, as if it came from some poor ghost that had been commanded to walk this earth with restless…

When people make sarcastic remarks, they say one thing, that if taken at face value has the exact opposite meaning that they wish to convey. For instance, they may say, “nice going” when someone makes a blunder. Many times, it is a light-hearted way to take the edge off a criticism that encourages everyone…
