Lecture 9, The Adoption Of Sons, Galatians 4:1-7
By H A Ironside Now I say, that the heir, as long as he is a child, differeth nothing from a servant, though he be lord of all; but is under tutors and governors until the time appointed of the father. Even so we, when we were children, were in bondage under…

Lecture 8, The Law As Child-Leader Until Christ, Galatians 3:19-29
By H A Ironside Wherefore then serveth the law? It was added because of transgressions, till the seed should come to whom the promise was made; and it was ordained by angels in the hand of a mediator. Now a mediator is not a mediator of one, but God is one.…

Lecture 7, Redeemed From The Curse Of The Law, Galatians 3:10-18
By H A Ironside For as many as are of the works of the law are under the curse: for it is written, Cursed is every one that continueth not in all things which are written in the book of the law to do them. But that no man is justified…

Lecture 6, “Who Hath Bewitched You?” Galatians 3:1-9
By H A Ironside O foolish Galatians, who hath bewitched you, that ye should not obey the truth, before whose eyes Jesus Christ hath been evidently set forth, crucified among you? This only would I learn of you, Received ye the Spirit by the works of the law, or by the…

Lecture 5, Peter’s Defection At Antioch, Galatians 2:11-21

Lecture 4, The Gospel As Ministered To Jew And Gentile, Galatians 2:1-10
By H A Ironside Then fourteen years after I went up again to Jerusalem with Barnabas, and took Titus with me also. And I went up by revelation, and communicated unto them that gospel which I preach among the Gentiles, but privately to them which were of reputation, lest by any…

Lecture 3, Paul’s Conversion, And Apostleship, Galatians 1:10-24
By H A Ironside For do I now persuade men, or God? or do I seek to please men? for if I yet pleased men, I should not be the servant of Christ. But I certify you, brethren, that the gospel which was preached of me is not after man. For…

Lecture 2, No Other Gospel, Galatians 1:6-9
By H A Ironside I marvel that ye are so soon removed from him that called you into the grace of Christ unto another gospel: which is not another; but there be some that trouble you, and would pervert the gospel of Christ. But though we, or an angel from heaven,…

Lecture 1, Introduction, Galatians 1:1-5
By H A Ironside Paul, an apostle, (not of men, neither by man, but by Jesus Christ, and God the Father, who raised him from the dead;) and all the brethren which are with me, unto the churches of Galatia: grace be to you and peace from God the Father, and…

Romans, Lecture 11
The Will Of God As To The Believer’s Relation To Government And To Society, And The Closing SectionsRomans 13—16 The position of the Christian in this world is necessarily, under the present order of things, a peculiarly difficult and almost anomalous one. He is a citizen of another world, passing…

Romans, Lecture 9
God’s Future Dealings with Israel in Fulfilment of the Prophetic Scriptures Chapter 11 This eleventh chapter is most illuminating in regard to God’s dispensational plan.

Romans, Lecture 8
God’s Present Dealings with Israel in Governmental Discipline Romans 10 Having, as we have seen, vindicated in a masterly way the righteousness of God in setting aside Israel nationally because of unbelief, and taking up the Gentiles during the present dispensation of grace, the apostle now goes on to show…

Romans, Lecture 7
God’s Past Dealings with Israel in Electing Grace. Romans 9 Having carried us all the way from the distance and bondage and condemnation of chapters 1, 2, and 3 to the glorious freedom and justification and eternal union with Christ of chapter 8, the apostle now turns to consider another…

Romans, Lecture 6
The Triumph Of GraceRomans 8 It has always seemed to me a great pity that in editing our Bibles and dividing the text into chapters and verses the break was permitted to come where it does between chapters seven and eight. I am persuaded that many souls have failed to…

Romans, Lecture 5
The Gospel In Relation To Indwelling SinRomans 5:12—7:25 It will be necessary to take up this third part of the great doctrinal division in two lectures because of the wide scope of Romans 5:12 to the end of chapter 8. We shall look first therefore at that portion which ends with chapter…

Romans, Lecture 3
The Need Of The GospelRomans 1:18—3:20 We have seen that the gospel reveals the righteousness of God. The apostle now proceeds to show the need of such a revelation and piles proof upon proof, evidence upon evidence, and Scripture upon Scripture to demonstrate the solemn fact that man has no…

Romans, Lecture 2
Salutation And IntroductionRomans 1:1-17 As we come to a verse-by-verse examination of this epistle, we may well remind ourselves once more of the precious truth that “all scripture is God-breathed and profitable” (2 Timothy 3:16). God has spoken through His Word, and this letter contains some of the most important…

Romans, Lecture 1
The Theme And Analysis The epistle to the Romans is undoubtedly the most scientific statement of the divine plan for the redemption of mankind that God has been pleased to give us. Apart altogether from the question of inspiration, we may think of it as a treatise of transcendent, intellectual…
