Preachers of the truth! God has always had them down through the
centuries. Did you ever wish you could hear some of these great servants preaching from
the Word of God? We cannot hear them, but some of their messages have been preserved.
Let?s go way back to the early centuries of Christianity and look at three brief
messages concerning the Lord Jesus Christ.

Reassembling The Assembly

Steve Hulshizer

The question is often asked, “Do assembly principles apply to
meetings held outside the assembly?” The answers vary greatly depending on who you
ask. The real problem is that Scripture does not address such gatherings, and, as such, in
the eyes of many we are left to our own thinking.

Jesus In the Midst

Mark Kolchin

Before they entered land of Canaan, Israel was promised a future leader
by Moses when he said: “The LORD thy God will raise up unto thee a Prophet from the
midst of thee, of thy brethren, like unto me; unto him ye shall hearken…” (Deut.
18:15) From then on, Israel looked for this great Prophet that God would raise up?the
Messiah?someone similar to Moses who was appointed by God to lead the nation.

ANNA ?Meditations – Luke 2:25-38

By Barry Kirk

And there was one Anna, a prophetess, the daughter of Phanuel, of the tribe of Aser. she
was of a great age, and had lived with an husband seven years from her virginity;
And she was a widow of about fourscore and four years, which departed not from the temple,
but served God with fastings and prayers night and day.
And she coming in that instant gave thanks likewise unto the Lord, and spake of him to all
them that looked for redemption in Jerusalem
. Lk. 2:36-38

Singing With Purpose

By Jim Upton

The Scripture tells us that fellowship with the saints is good; it should be encouraged.
It’s one of the pleasant things that’s made even better with a little coffee and banana
bread-or whatever-that the ladies serve before the Family Bible Hour. Sometimes
conversations that get started at these times need” just a few more minutes.
“We’ve got another 10 minutes before the preaching begins; they’re only singing now.
The singing will be better without my monotone, anyhow.”
