  • “NO” TO THE “NEAT GOSPEL” by John Sinclair

  • Letters of J. N. Darby

  • Evangelization — A word to the Evangelist.

    Letter 4. Prayer By C. H. Mackintosh It seems to me that we are far too mechanical, if I may so express myself, in the work. There is too much of what I may call going through a service. I greatly fear that some of us are more on our…

    (Extracted from Scripture Truth Vol. 32, 1940, page 139.)
