Excerpt from Pentecost, or the Work of God in Philadelphia, A. D. 1858 The works Of the Lord are great, sought out of all them that have pleasure therein. (ps. Cxi. We are commanded to consider them, to talk Of them, to declare them to others, as well as to rejoice in them ourselves. When Paul and Bar nabas returned to Antioch, we are told that they gathered the Church together, and rehearsed all that God had done with them, and how he had Opened the door of faith unto the Gentiles. The words of the beloved Physician are very suggestive. When doors are Opened that before were closed, it is surely a matter of great rejoicing. The object Of these pages is twofold, - viz., to recognise the present work OF god in our city, and to extend the knowledge of it here and elsewhere.

Excerpt from The Full Blessing of Pentecost, the One Thing Needful My attention has lately again been directed by a brother to the Epistle to the Hebrews, and to the way it speaks of Christ in His heavenly glory and power as the object of our faith. In my book, The Holiest of All, I have tried to point out (see chaps. Lxv. - lxx., and elsewhere) how the Holy Spirit reveals the way into the Holiest as opened by the blood of Christ, and invites us by faith in Christ to have our life there. It is as we yield our hearts to the leading of the Spirit to know Christ and look at Him, and believe in what is revealed, that the Spirit can take possession of us. The Spirit is given to reveal Christ, and every revelation of Christ fully accepted gives the Spirit room to dwell and work within us. This is the sure way in which the promise will be fulfilled: He that believeth on Me, rivers of living water shall ow out of him. May God lead us to this simple and full faith in Christ, our great High Priest and King in the heavens, and so into a life in the fulness of the Spirit.

This is a book - a first of its kind - to help kids understand and celebrate the birthday of the Church. The Day When God Made the Church is the story of Pentecost and how the Holy Spirit shaped, and continues to shape, who we are as God's Church.

Excerpt from The Transfigured Church And when the day of Pentecost was come, they were all together in one place. And Suddenly there came from heaven a sound as of the rushing Of a mighty wind, and it filled all the house where they were sitting. And there appeared unto them tongues parting asunder, like as of fire: and it sat upon each one of them. And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit, and began to Speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance. And when this sound was heard, the multitude came together! - acts ii. 14, 6.
