She returneth with what she had gotten to her mother in law, and telleth her what had happened. Ruth 2 Preface - Paul is conducted in a ship toward Rome: he foretelleth the danger of the voyage, but is not credited: the ship setting sail against his advice is tossed with a tempest: Paul comforteth his fellow travellers with assurances of having their lives saved, but foretelleth a shipwreck: all which is verified by the event. Acts 27 Daily Light - Morning Thou art all fair, my love; there is no spot in thee. The whole head is sick, and the whole heart faint. From the sole of the foot even unto the head there is no soundness in it; but wounds, and bruises, and putrifying sores: they have not been closed, neither bound up, neither mollified with ointment. - We are all as an unclean thing, and all our righteousnesses are as filthy rags. - I know that in me (that is, in my flesh,) dwelleth no good thing. Ye are washed....ye are sanctified....ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God. - The king's daughter is all glorious within. - Perfect through my comeliness, which I had put upon thee, saith the Lord GOD. Let the beauty of the LORD our God be upon us. These are thy which....have washed their robes, and made them white in the blood of the Lamb. - A glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; but....holy and without blemish. - Ye are complete in him. Song 4.7; Isa. 1.5-6; Isa. 64.6; Ro. 7.18 1 Co. 6.11; Ps. 45.13; Ezek. 16.14 Ps. 90.17 Rev. 7.14; Eph. 5.27; Col. 2.10 Daily Light - Evening Broken cisterns, that can hold no water. Eve....bare Cain, and said, I have gotten a man from the LORD. Go to, let us build us a city and a tower, whose top may reach unto heaven.... The LORD scattered them. - lot chose him all the plain of Jordan. - It was well watered everywhere....even as the garden of the LORD.... But the men of Sodom were wicked and sinners before the LORD exceedingly. I gave my heart ot know wisdom, and to know madness and folly: I perceived that this also is vexation of spirit. For in much wisdom is much grief: and he that increaseth knowledge increaseth sorrow. - I made me great works; I builded me houses; I planted me vineyards....I gathered me also silver and gold.... Then I looked on all that my hands had wrought....and, behold, all was vanity and vexation of spirit. If any man thirst, let him come unto me, and drink. - He satisfieth the longing soul, and filleth the hungry sould with goodness. Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth. Jer. 2.13; Ge. 4.1 Ge. 11.4,8; Ge. 13.11; Ge. 13.10,13 Ec. 1.17-18; Ec. 2.4,8,11 Jn. 7.37; Ps. 107.9 Col. 3.2 A Puritans Catechism Q 18 - What is the misery of that state whereinto man fell? A. - All mankind by their fall, lost communion with God, are under his wrath and curse, and so made liable to all the miseries in this life, to death itself, and to the pains of hell forever. The 1689 Baptist Confession of Faith Of the Holy Scriptures Chapter 1 PARAGRAPH 9 The infallible rule of interpretation of Scripture is the Scripture itself; and therefore when there is a question about the true and full sense of any Scripture (which are not many, but one), it must be searched by other places that speak more clearly. 20 20 2 Pet. 1:20–21; Acts 15:15–16 Robert Murray M'Cheyne - God Makes A Path - Daily Devotional Readings The divine Saviour He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not. John 1 v 10 He was the Creator of all worlds: 'Without him was not anything made.' He was the Preserver of all worlds: 'By him all things consist', and hang together. All worlds, therefore, were His domain - He was Lord of all. He could say: 'Every beast of the forest is mine, and the cattle upon a thousand hills. I know all the fowls of the mountains: and the wild beasts of the field are mine. If I were hungry, I would not tell thee: for the world is mine, and the fullness thereof' (Psalm 50 vs 10-12). All lands sang aloud to Him. the sea roared His praise, the cedars bowed before Him in lowly adoration. Nay, He could say: 'All things that the Father hath are mine' (John 16 v 15); and He could speak to His Father of the glory which He had with Him before the world was. Whatever of power, glory, riches, blessedness, the Father had, dwelt with equal fullness in the Son; for He was in the form of God, and though it no robbery to be equal with God. This was the riches of the Lord Jesus. Oh, brethren! can you trust your salvation to such an one? You heard it was He that undertook to be the surety of sinners, and died for them. Can you trust your soul in the hands of such an one. Ah! surely if so rich and glorious a being undertake for us, He will not fail nor be discouraged, 'till he have set judgement in the earth; and the isles shall wait for his law.'
