The Unsearchable Riches of Christ
By E.W. Bullinger An excerpt from Things to Come Vol. VIII, No. 6 – December 1901 These words are usually taken, like so many others, apart from their context; and thus, are diverted from their true interpretation, which is determined by the context in which we find them (Ephesians 3:8). They are usually taken as applying to the inexhaustible riches which are treasured up in Christ the “Head,” for all the members of His body; and not dispensationally. That there are these riches thus treasured up is most blessedly true. But the...

By E.W. Bullinger An excerpt from Things to Come Vol. VI, No. 4 – October 1899 Man is by his fallen nature selfish; and therefore is necessarily prone to be occupied with himself. And even Christians, who possess a New nature, are not free from this ever present temptation. This is bad enough in itself and in its results; but, when it is substituted for occupation with Christ, then a double evil result follows: the true way is forsaken, and peace is lost; the false way is taken, and...

by E. W. Bullinger An excerpt from Things to Come Vol. VII, No. 2 – August 1900 “Behold, what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called the sons of God” (I John 3:1). Notice in these wondrous words: THE DIVINE COMMAND “Behold!” It is not mere interjection, but a verb; an imperative command. Look! See! Observe! Notice! This word “Behold” seems to be specially associated with the Holy Spirit; for it is He who thus calls our attention to what He is about to write and...

Food For the Inner Man Excerpt for Autobiography of George Mueller (1805-1898) While I was staying at Nailsworth, it pleased the Lord to teach me a truth, irrespective of human instrumentality, as far as I know, the benefit of which I have not lost, though now…more than forty years have since passed away. The point is this: I saw more clearly than ever, that the first great and primary business to which I ought to attend every day, to have MY SOUL HAPPY IN THE LORD. The first thing to...

Read moreMoo Moo Lips & Thanksgiving
By Bob Lindfelt While preparing for a teaching on Thanksgiving, I discovered a most unusual, yet fascinating Scripture. To appreciate this verse and subsequently apply it in your life, it requires a little background on Old Testament ways of expressing thankfulness to God. As a result of the fall of man with Adam, man required a perfect, once and for all, sacrifice of the son of God - the lord Jesus Christ. Until this occurred man's righteous relationship with God was based on sacrifices by God's people....

The "Treasure," the "Vessel," and the "Power" by E. W. Bullinger “We have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellency of the power may be of God, and not of us” (2 Corinthians 4:7). The one object of the Epistles to the Corinthians is to turn away the mind and the thoughts from the agents whom God condescends to use, and to direct the attention to Him who uses them, and sends the message. While the Apostle magnifies his office, he yet speaks of himself as nothing. “We preach not ourselves” is the burden of the...

PRAISES IN THE PSALMS by Jan Magiera The Psalms is called the book of praises, sepher tehillim. Tehillim is defined as “all that is worthy of praise and celebration.” What is worthy of praise? The answer is the pervading theme of the Psalms - the works and ways of the Lord (Jehovah). Psalm 1 sets the pattern of emphasis throughout the whole…
Prayer
excerpt from THINGS TO COME No. 115 JANUARY 1904. Vol. X. No. 7. by E. W. Bullinger PRAYER Prayer is the breath of the New Nature; as the Word of God is its food. In the natural world of physiology, we do not concern ourselves with the phenomena of digestion, but with the obtaining and partaking of our food. It is a sign of…
All in All
by E. W. Bullinger An excerpt from Things to Come Vol. V, No. 8 - February 1899 The expression “all in all” is elliptical. The figure of speech here used is fully explained and exemplified, as used throughout Scripture, in “Figures of Speech,” a new work by Dr. Bullinger, now in course of publication. In supplying the words omitted in the “ellipsis” the…
Shepherd and Sheepfold
EVERYDAY LIFE IN THE HOLY LAND by James Neil Chapter 4 There are no pastures in Palestine as we understand them. Throughout the East grass is never sown or cultivated, and is never made into hay. Where we use hay, they feed with teben, “crushed straw,” and give barley to horses instead of oats. It was just the same in Bible times, for…
Practical Power of Our Hope
by E. W. Bullinger An excerpt from Things to Come Vol. II. No. 2 – November 1894 The return of our Lord from heaven and the hope we have in Him is the most practical subject in the Word of God. We know that those who hold this hope are looked upon, by those who are strangers to it, as being fanatics…
The Fig the Olive and the Vine
by E. W. Bullinger An excerpt from Things to Come Vol. II, No. 2 - August 1895 The symbolic, typical, and figurative teaching of God’s Word is an inexhaustible source of delight to those who meditate on it day and night, and who ponder over the infinite beauties and varieties of the written thoughts and wisdom of Him whose words are full of…
Languages of the Bible
by Jan Magiera The Bible is an eastern book and was written by eastern people. “The prophecy came not in old time by the will of man: but holy men of God spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost” (II Peter 1:21). These “holy men” spoke three main languages, which are Hebrew, Aramaic and Greek. If we want to…
The Walk of Our Life
The Word of God sets forth very clearly what our walk should be like and how to walk. The word “walk” is a Hebrew idiom, meaning our life, or to live. To walk means “to regulate one’s life, to conduct oneself.” So if the Bible shows what our walk should be like, it shows how we should regulate our lives…
Peeps into Palestine - The Sais
by James Neil The Sais, or Fore-Runner. His is an extremely picturesque and evidently ancient calling. He may now be seen to the best advantage in the large towns of Egypt. When rich people drive or ride abroad, a servant attends them, called, a sais, or groom, whose duty it is to run on foot at some distance in front of…
