IN the good Providence of God, we are permitted once again to keep watch during the hours of Good Friday around the Cross of Christ. We look, by faith, to the time when we shall see the sign of the Son of Man in heaven, and shall behold Him whom they pierced on His return to judge the earth and the world by fire. Until that day the servants can do no more than to heed and follow His command: "What I say unto you I say unto all, Watch." And therefore are we here to watch, with fear, with hope, with love, with searchings of heart, where our Lord was crucified. Here is that Holy Cross on which...

Here are fascinating answers to a deep and wide variety of life-related questions that were asked of a spirit being known only as the Guide, and spoken by Eva Pierrakos. For many years, people have been reading the Pathwork lectures online at www.pathwork.org. Between monthly lectures, Eva also held Q&A sessions during which participants could ask questions related to the most recent lecture, personal problems, or understanding life in general. Until now, these have not been widely read. Jill Loree, Pathwork Helper and founder of Phoenesse, created this collection of her favorite Pathwork Q...

“It is Finished.” (John 19:30) Meditations on the Sixth Word from the Cross by Archbishop Fulton J. Sheen For years, Archbishop Sheen gave a series of powerful presentations on Christ’s Passion and His seven last words from the Cross. As a Scripture scholar, Archbishop Sheen knew full well the power contained in preaching Christ crucified. With St. Paul, he could say, “For I decided to know nothing among you except Jesus Christ and him crucified” (1 Cor. 2:2). During his last recorded Good Friday address in 1979, Archbishop Sheen spoke of having given this type of reflection on ...

Following the success of Buddhist Mandalas: Explore Parallel Realities with Sacred Geometry, book two continues the dharma teachings.

Come.

In this book you'll encounter fifty-two brief readings, ideal for weekly sabbath reflection or daily devotional use. They point to the path of peace in the midst of life's turmoil, to hope in the midst of brokenness.

In the midst of his suffering in prison, St. Paul gives us a true glimpse into his faith and hope. Despite his circumstances, he describes his life as a joyful journey, because it is under the leadership of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Incarnated Word of God. During his time in prison, St. Paul neither expresses care for being deprived of his preaching the Gospel, or for his lack of freedom to meet his Beloved. Yet, in the midst of his pain and suffering, his soul did not cease to rejoice in the victorious life of faith in Jesus Christ – in every minute of every day. He did not view faith ...

BELOVED FRIENDS AND BRETHREN, I cannot reach your hearts, I know well. It is not in me,—it needs the finger of God. But I can set before you my earnest wishes for every class among you, and I will do it, the Lord being my helper. Bear with me if I say things that sound sharp and hard. Set it down to my anxiety for your salvation;—I mean it all for your good. I write none other things but what I have gathered from the Bible, and as such I commend them to your consciences. Consider what I say, and the Lord give you understanding in all things. I grant you may be quick and clever about the...

There are lone hearth-fires today, so many! And those who sit beside them, with the empty chair, cannot restrain the tears that will come. Yes, here's the Bible close by. But there's a heavy mood on that affects one's eyes so. One sits alone so much. There is some One unseen, just here, within reach. But somehow we don't realize His presence; it does not seem real. If we would quietly put a foot on the next step up, and then rise up to that foot, we can recognize His presence: it is real. Realizing is blessed, but... rare. It belongs to the mood; to the feelings. It is dependent on weather ...

A Cornerstone Book In Our Rich Christian Literary Heritage. Thomas à Kempis leads the honest seeker as deeply into the inward life with Christ as it is possible for a human being to go, allowing the reader to draw away from the noise and clamor of the everyday world to personally experience Jesus’ promise: “Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you” (John 14:27). It took Thomas à Kempis seven years to write this book by hand over five centuries ago. Since then, The Imitation of Christ has been translated into more languages than any other book except the Bible, and is ...

As we start upon our spiritual navigation from the great mountains and forests of the wild life of nature, we must be content to take the lowest and humblest steps that belong to beginners. The lowest class of vessels that go by water are those of the tow-boat rank, such as are used on canals, and barges for hauling slow and heavy freight. There are two classes of boats that we must utilize in our journey before we come to the sail boat, which, in a proper sense, represents the life of a regenerated believer; of one who has the assurance of the Spirit that he is a child of God. In like ...

OUR Lord had been persecuted, and therefore he put forth many proofs of his power. When opposition attends the gospel it will be the more triumphant ; the warnings of the devil prognosticate the success of the word. When our Lord Jesus had done much, he was under a sacred necessity to do more; for every one who was healed busied himself in spreading abroad the fame of the beloved Physician, and others labouring under similar infirmities hastened at once to receive the like cure. The more we do for Christ the more we may do, and I think usually the more we must do. If we hold back from ...

WHAT is Peace? We read much of it in the Bible, and we see something of it the varied picture of human life. It is the calm and settled happiness, which has its abiding-place deep down in the Christian's heart. It is the quiet repose of the soul which has found relief and satisfaction in Christ, and exists even amidst the trials and worries of this turbulent world. We sometimes see the mighty ocean lashed by storms, and tossed to and fro. But if we could look beneath the surface, we should find a calmness and rest ever reigning there, uninfluenced by the upper currents, and unruffled by the...

A DEEP concern for the welfare of my fellow-mortals, and an earnest desire that they may be made partakers of the joy and glory of that salvation which comes by Christ, has induced me to present to them in this form, the following Sermon, written by John Venn, late rector of Clapham — a valued and experienced Christian; as it contains hints well calculated to produce serious reflection, to lead into humble watchfulness of spirit, and the endeavour to walk so closely with God, that whatsoever is done may be done to his glory. I am best satisfied to add, that my own observation and ...

There is an ancient book called Job which takes its name from the man whose story it tells. He lived in the land of Uz. He was a man of up-right life and godly character. He had a large family and was very prosperous. The home life of his family was particularly happy. His children feasted together daily and their father took pains with their religious life. The disinterestedness of Job's piety was questioned in the heavenly councils by Satan. God asked him, "Hast thou considered my servant Job? For there is none like him in the earth, a perfect and an upright man, one that feareth God, and...
