Together, they will labor to build a new Switzerland, in a faraway place. The family will learn, over and over again, that God is the all-merciful Provider of everything that we enjoy. God is the bountiful Creator who has made the things of this earth for the benefit of His creatures.The Life of Henry MartynOriginally published in 1832 by the American Sunday School Union, this short biography of one the greatest missionaries of the 19th century was written to encourage young people to dedicate their lives to the sacred work of serving the Lord Jesus Christ. Henry Martyn willingly gave up his life for the cause of Christ's gospel in faraway lands. He spent years in India and Persia, laboring to translate the Scriptures so that the peoples of those lands would come to know the saving gospel of Jesus Christ.

Book excerpt: My book, Adventures in the Christian Life, is an autobiography of how our Lord directed our lives. The pictures are from some of the places the Lord sent us to.

The adventure begins in the late 1950's when my bride and I leave from San Francisco, California for our first of three experiences in the Philippines. From the jungles of the Philippines, to the inspiration of the student center in Berkley, California, Gospel Center in the Manila, and mobilizing the movement to cross the bamboo curtain of China. The excitement, risk, and uncertainty of the next forty years of travel with my wife and three children living in the Philippines, Taiwan, and California were fruitful, honorable, and pretentious.

Download or read book The Expulsive Power of a New Affection written by Thomas Chalmers and published by Gideon House Books. This book was released on 2015-06-17 with total page 25 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him.” — 1 John 2:15 Those who struggle with habitual sin are keenly aware of the despair and fatigue that comes from trying harder and harder to control the desire to do what is wrong in the eyes of God. For this person, there be times of limited success in overcoming sin, but eventually he/she falls back again into unhealthy patterns. In "The Expulsive Power of a New Affection", Thomas Chalmers argues that no matter how hard we may try, we’ll never overcome habitual sin in our lives unless we switch our affections from the world to Jesus Christ. Thankfully Christ loved us first and is more than willing to set us free if we’d only realize the true Gospel power that we can all have in our lives today.
