Put Ye On the Lord Jesus

April 11th, 2009 @ Chip Brogden

“But put ye on the Lord Jesus, and make no provision for the flesh, to fulfill its lusts (Romans 13:14).”
We have discussed the difference between receiving the Life of the Lord and receiving the Lord as our Life. The two sound very similar, but in actual practice they are not exactly the same. We [...]

One Thing Is Needed

April 11th, 2009 @ Chip Brogden

“And Jesus answered and said unto her, Martha, Martha, thou art careful and troubled about many things: But one thing is needful: and Mary hath chosen that good part, which shall not be taken away from her (Luke 10:41,42).”
We often sacrifice God’s one thing in favor of many things. There is something more significant [...]

The Law of Life

April 11th, 2009 @ Chip Brogden

“For the Law of the Spirit of Life in Christ Jesus has made me free from the Law of Sin and Death (Romans 8:2).”
Two laws are mentioned in this passage of Scripture: the Law of Life, and the Law of Sin and Death. We who are in Christ Jesus have been delivered from the [...]

It's A Wonderful Life!

April 11th, 2009 @ Chip Brogden

God is Love, Light, and Life. These are the most profound words in the Scriptures. The writings of John are the writings of a man who is spiritually mature. He has found a way to express the inexpressible, a method of summing up all that God is. You will never [...]

I Know Whom I Have Believed

April 11th, 2009 @ Chip Brogden

The Scriptures exhort us to “grow in grace, and in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.” Our spiritual growth may be generally discussed as occurring in three seasons of development. Please do not use this teaching to examine where others are, but use it to examine yourself and see if you are [...]

The Hidden Christ

April 11th, 2009 @ Chip Brogden

Jesus, the Christ of God, did not reveal Himself to the world at large, but to a handful of disciples. We ought to ask why He did not appear upon a mountain in blinding light, or descend in a cloud, but was born into the world as a baby in a stable. A few shepherds [...]

He Must Increase

April 11th, 2009 @ Chip Brogden

“He must increase, but I must decrease (John 3:30).”
These seven words found in John 3:30 contain the entire mystery of God’s dealings with man from ages past to eternity future. “He [Christ] must increase.” All of God’s works are towards this end of increasing Christ. In other words, everything God has done, is doing, and [...]

He Could Not Be Hidden

April 11th, 2009 @ Chip Brogden

“And [Jesus] entered a house and wanted no one to know it, but He could not be hidden” (Mark 7:24b).
The ultimate purpose and intention of God is to increase Christ and decrease everything else so that Christ may be ALL IN ALL. John the Baptist stated this quite succinctly when he summed up God’s Eternal [...]

The Gift of Christ

April 11th, 2009 @ Chip Brogden

As the fullness of God – all that He is and all that He has – dwells in Christ, so the fullness of Christ – all that He is and all that He has – dwells in you (Colossians 2:9,10a).”
We have mentioned the need to recognize and appreciate the value, worth, and preciousness of [...]

Feet of Brass

April 11th, 2009 @ Chip Brogden

“And has put all things under His feet, and gave Him to be the Head over all things to the Church” (Ephesians 1:22).
“And His feet were like fine brass, as if they had burned in a furnace… and when I saw him, I fell at his feet like a dead man…” (Revelation 1:15-17ff).
When John [...]
