The Sun Of Righteousness Has Risen
Some of the points covered in this sermon: • Providing a historic context for the book of Malachi • Highlighting three great events predicted by Malachi in the fourth chapter—the destruction of Jerusalem, the advent of Christ and the ministry of John the Baptist • Underscoring the twofold description of Christ—the Sun of righteousness shall arise, with healing in His wings • Pointing out the threefold description of God’s elect people—they fear the name of the Lord, they shall go forth and they shall grow up as calves in the stall

The Burdened Soul Sustained
A Sermon Preached By John Kershaw At East Street Chapel, Walworth, On April 25th, 1848. "Cast thy burden upon the Lord, and he shall sustain thee; he will never suffer the righteous to be moved.”—Ps 55:22 Beloved, without taking up any time by way of introductory observations, we will come immediately to the words of our text. And with the help of the Lord, we will, first, notice the exhortation and the promise connected with it. We are exhorted to "cast our burden upon the Lord"; and the promise stands for our encouragement, "he shall sustain us." In the second place, we have a solemn declaration made, "He will never suffer the righteous to be moved." I. In the first place, let us notice the…

The Blessedness Of An Everlasting Covenant
My dear Friends in the Lord Jesus Christ,—I received yours. The moment I read it I felt for you, and said, “How true it is that in the world we must have tribulation; but how indescribably blessed it is that in Christ we have peace!”—bless his precious name, peace with God, peace of conscience by faith in his blood and love.

God With Us
The First Sermon Preached By John E. Hazelton In Streatley Hall, March 28th, 1909 "Certainly I will be with thee.”—Exodus 3:12 Very various is the discipline, the schooling, the training through which each one of God's people may pass.

The wonder-working hand of God in Providence is seen at the very outset of his career, when from the reedy river Moses was drawn out, and brought to…

Only Gone Before
My dear Friends in the glorious Head of the Church,—Your kind letter came to hand, with the tidings of the death of our dear brother Martin. Well; all his storms are over, ours cannot last long, and each one leaves the number less. Our blessed Lord will not let us have one trouble too many; no, nor let them be too boisterous or last too long; and he will see to it that all shall work together for good. Our dear covenant God cannot make any mistakes, nor suffer anything to do his blood-bought family any real harm. From self and self-dependence he will deliver us, although flesh and blood will often sigh and groan, yea, and kick and rebel, too, under and at the…
