Patience is....A calm and unruffled frame of mind with which the Christian hears about the evils of life. Patience is submission to God's sovereign providence, to submit because it is the will of God, to be silent because the sovereignty of God orders it, this a patience of a right sort. To the person who is of a patient frame of mind sickness may, without a miracle, be a means of great enjoyment. It enables a Christian to put his integrity to the test. The severer the sickness in such cases, the richer the blessings that may follow. Probably the happiest person in a large city among many people, is some child of God, whose bodily health makes him a stranger to sleep and even to the house of God. There is still living a man who says he has seen four happy days, one was the day of his conversion; another the day of his marriage; the other two were days spent in a sick-bed far from home. A man who as a student, writer, preacher, professor was full of life and energy; yet he said he had learned more of God in ten days sickness than in fifty years study. "But the fruit of the Spirit is...patience" (Galatians 5:22).

The Fallibility of Ministers
by J.C. Ryle
Great, even the best of ministers make mistakes, sometimes great mistakes. And sometimes mistaken ministers need to be told they are mistaken, it is more important to keep the truth in the church than the peace. Mr. Ryle also shows us here that there is no doctrine over which we should be so jealous as that of justification by faith alone, apart from works

Mark's Gospel
(Revised Edition)
Daily food for your soul!
You were given the Bible to teach us how to be reconciled to God and to live unto him. To become more Christ-like in our daily living. That we might find deep satisfaction and enjoyment in God, knowing his grace flowing towards us, encouraging, strengthening and giving us the victory by the power of his Holy Spirit.
As you use these devotional tools, written by James R Hamilton himself, you will begin to experience growth, and inner strength emanating from the word God. The strength is in the seed. God wants you to have that strength, to know his power and grace working in you, transforming your inner life, filled with joy unspeakable and full of glory

Calvin & the Law
This is a thirty page booklet explaining the Reformer John Calvin's teaching on the subject of biblical Law. A needed antidote against the rising tide of so-called new covenant teaching abroad today. The Law for Calvin had a three fold purpose, pedagogical, political and very much a purpose for the believers life today and every generation.
