The truth of God is learned through the conscience; this is why the most brilliant men can read the Bible through over and over and never hear the voice of God in it at all. It has been said that "what is one man's meat is another man's poison." The very Word of God may become poison to an unspiritual man if he reads it without being in subjection to God-reads it to find difficulties-and arises from its perusal more confirmed in his unbelief than he was when he sat down to consider it. The results are different when the same book is put into the hands of a spiritually-minded person-one who has bowed in God's presence, acknowledged his lost condition, trusted the Lord Jesus Christ as his Savior, and who is now seeking to live in obedience to God and His Word. That man sits down to the same book and finds it to be food for his soul, building him up in his faith.

"Who is the Giver?" You remember when addressing the poor woman at the well, our Lord Jesus Christ said, "If thou knewest the gift of God, and who it is that saith to thee, give me to drink; thou wouldst have asked of Him, and He would have given thee living water" (John 4. 10). God is the Giver. I wish we could get that clearly in our minds. A great many people think of God as a merchantman; they think that He has something to sell; that He is going about offering His salvation to people if they are rich enough to purchase it. Thank God, He is too rich to sell His salvation. But if He were to put it up for sale; if He were to set a price on it in any sense commensurate with its value, neither you nor I could ever purchase it.

As a new believer, one of the first thing that you should do is to learn a new vocabulary. In your former life you amassed quite a few words; some nice, some not so nice. Now as a believer, you have a brand new life - so it only stands to reason that you should have some new words to go along with that new life. Many Christians today struggle with security after they are saved. They struggle because they do not understand what they are, what they have in CHRIST. Believer, I can assure you that once you understand these basic building blocks - you will have the tools to not only grow in grace and the knowledge of our Lord JESUS CHRIST, but you will also have firm ground from which to stare Satan in the face and command him to "Get thee behind me "

In this little volume the word religion is used in its popular, not its distinctively Biblical sense. In the Scriptures it is but seldom found, and where used it refers, undoubtedly, to outward observances. Paul "profited in the Jews' religion." He gave himself up to the carrying out of all its legal enactments. James contrasts with this the "pure religion and undefiled," which is, not Christianity itself, but the outcome of it. Alas, how many stumble right here - designating a system of philanthropy and correct living as Christianity itself; mistaking the result for the cause from which it springs; denying the truth of God-unwittingly though it may be.
