Taken from a gospel tract published by Bible Truth Publishers in the USA. One evening, many years ago, before the days of radio, Captain Oldrey and the crew of his ship, the Hyacinth, were sailing toward Barbados, a tropical island on the eastern edge of the Caribbean Sea.

Gain or Loss
This meditation is taken from the Good Seed daily Bible calendar, published by GBV in Germany. What things were gain to me, these I have counted loss for Christ. Yes indeed I also count all things loss for the excellence of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord. Philippians 3:7.8
Wisdom
Taken from the Good Seed daily calendar, published by GBV in Germany. Oh, that they were wise, that they understand this, that they would consider their latter end! Deuteronomy 32:29. The lack of wisdom among the people of Israel at that time makes us think of the dreadful ignorance that is widespread in the worldContinue reading “Wisdom”
The Deserter
This story is taken from a book called “Come Home”, based on gospel stories compiled and published by Christian Book Room in Kowloon, Hong Kong. I just thought to share this touching and true story with you in the hope that you will put your trust and faith in Christ as your Saviour, and, ifContinue reading “The Deserter”
The Gospel in the book of Esther
There are two books in the Bible that bear the names of women. One is Esther, and the other book is Ruth.

Ruth was a Moabitess (a gentile woman) who had faith to goContinue reading “The Gospel in the book of Esther”

The gospel in Isaiah
Adapted from revised noted of meetings in New Zealand, from a family meeting in Masterton on 5 November 2008 by Greg Quail. I included some extra information that was not in the notes. The central message is also the heart of the Word of God, the Bible. How many books are there in the Bible?Continue reading “The gospel in Isaiah”
The ‘I AM’s in the Gospel of John
The gospel of John is a very peculiar gospel in the fact that John does not copy from the three Synoptic Gospels of Matthew, Mark and Luke. The other striking thing is that John makes no mention of his own name as one of the disciples of Jesus Christ. His aim is to have theContinue reading “The ‘I AM’s in the Gospel of John”
Some Patterns in John’s Writings
Have you ever wondered about the similar patterns and phrases that exist in the Gospel and Epistles of John? No matter how many times we may have read John’s inspired writings, there is always refreshment and there are new things to learn. To make it very simple, John wrote about 600 different words in hisContinue reading “Some Patterns in John’s Writings”
