He Preached Christ

We read that "when Philip was come down unto Samaria, he preached Christ unto them." He did not preach politics, social reform, community uplift, theories or doctrinal differences, but he preached CHRIST. -- Not a different Christ than He who walked the shores of Galilee, forgiving sin and healing the sick. Not a limited Christ whose power had waned, nor a far-off Christ who could not hear, but the Christ whose power was just the same -- a Christ who had said: "Lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world."

Blessing and Protection

The Lord did not promise His blessing and protection to the sinner and the scornful but promised His blessing to "the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful. His delight is in the laws of the Lord; and in His law doth he meditate day and night."




To those who walk closely to Him and meditate in His law (that is, read His Word, the Bible, and think upon it earnestly), He promises, "and he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water that bringeth forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper."
