In this thought-provoking essay, St. Jerome engages in a robust defense against Helvidius, who argued that the mention of Christs “sisters” and “brethren” in the gospels implies that the Virgin Mary had other children with her husband, Joseph.

Practical Sermons

Discover the profound possibility of prayer made accessible to us through Jesus. In this exploration, we delve into how we can pray with power by embracing the truths that unlock this divine communication. Prayer encompasses not only the arrival of Gods Kingdom but also the fulfillment of every need of His people. It is an essential journey in the practice of prayer, where we engage with the revealed Father through the mediating Son and the inspiring Spirit.

Furthermore, it thrives within the framework established by the pattern of prayer. (G. Campbell Morgan)

In this thought-provoking exploration, we delve into the two foundational means of grace the Word of God and Prayer. Its crucial to strike the right balance between these two.

These addresses are intended not as a comprehensive study but as thoughtful reflections. This timeless topic has inspired Prophets, Apostles, and countless devoted individuals throughout history. My hope is to motivate God’s children to pursue prayer fervently, igniting the power that changes the world. (D. L. Moody)

Psychology of Religion

William Booth, co-founder of The Salvation Army alongside his wife Catherine in 1865, penned several influential works on the theme of holiness. Among these, Purity of Heart, first published in 1902, stands out for its clarity and passion. This book is a compilation of letters Booth originally wrote as open correspondence to be shared within The Salvation Army, designed to be read aloud over a ten-week sermon series on the vital subject of purity. In the opening letter, Booth articulates his understanding of purity of heart, and the following messages build upon this foundational idea. Each letter delves into different facets of holiness, addressing the desirability of a pure heart, the pathway to holiness, and inspiring examples of those who have achieved it. True to their initial intent, the letters reflect the structure typical of Salvationist preaching, often summarizing previous messages, weaving in hymn lyrics, and concluding with heartfelt altar calls. While collectively they outline what could be seen as a Salvationist theology of holiness, Booths work is far more than a theological discourse; it is an impassioned appeal from a fervent preacher eager to help his audience overcome any barriers—be they misunderstandings, false beliefs, rational objections, or a lack of desire—in their pursuit of holiness. - Summary by David Purdy

Purity of Heart

As the heart longs for the refreshing waters, so my soul yearns for You, O God. A.W. Tozer boldly asserts that this deep thirst for an intimate relationship with God is not just for a chosen few; it should be the reality for every believer in Christ. Yet, he laments, such fervor is regrettably scarce, as many have settled into the comfortable mediocrity shaped by tradition, while the church grapples with formalism and worldly distractions. Through poignant examples from Scripture and the lives of those who truly thirsted for God, Tozer illuminates the pathway to a deeper, more fulfilling walk with the Divine. (Summary by D. Leeson)

Pursuit of God

Quiet Talks on Prayer

In his profound work, Thomas K. Cheyne outlines a visionary goal to foster universal peace and promote a deeper understanding of the worlds religions, which are, at their core, manifestations of a singular truth. He argues that the unity of religions must precede the unity of races, which remains tragically incomplete. Cheyne emphasizes studying different races and religions from their most admirable perspectives, rather than being confined to any single tradition. He reflects on the Baháí communitys preferred name for each other—Friends—as a testament to their shared spiritual journey. Cheyne sought to embody a human-catholic religion, embracing simultaneous membership in various spiritual brotherhoods. His aim is to demonstrate that these diverse expressions of faith, when explored deeply, reveal an underlying oneness, leading to racial and global unity. Thomas Kelly Cheyne, D.Litt. D.D., was a notable English theologian and biblical critic whose journey led him to the Baháí Faith, while maintaining his Christian ministerial role. This work, written in 1914, delves into Bábí and Baháí history and serves as a bridge to understanding the interconnectedness of all spiritual paths.

The letters of John Knox provide a unique glimpse into his character and temperament, often more revealing than his formal writings. To fully appreciate the rich allusions within, one must consider his domestic life during his time in England. While residing in Berwick, Knox developed a close relationship with Mrs. Bowes, and a deep bond blossomed with her daughter, Marjory, with the mother’s enthusiastic approval for their union. However, this match faced fierce opposition from Marjorys relatives, particularly Sir Thomas Bowes, a notable diplomat who believed that an alliance with an obscure Scot would tarnish the family’s reputation. Knox’s responses to this unkind treatment were marked by a blend of dignity, self-respect, and Christian humility. Though their marriage was delayed, he continued to affectionately address Mrs. Bowes as mother in his letters. Eventually, when it became clear that her family would not relent, the couple married, just before Knox’s flight to the continent following Mary’s accession. His devoted wife shared in his trials in both Switzerland and Scotland, tragically passing away in Scotland at the close of 1560. - Summary by Thomas Thomson
