God is currently preparing His assembly, the church, His bride, to be ready for Christ’s return. Jesus Christ assumed human nature in order to bring Himself into reality with His covenant people, both elect Jews and elect non-Jews. The current age is a time of preparation for God’s people.

The hope of the kingdom has its foundation in the covenants of eternity and time. This study presents the genealogy of Jesus Christ in Matthew 1 in the context of God’s covenants.

Life Brought To Light

By: by W. E. Best

This is a study of II Timothy 1:8-10. This text shows God’s order of salvation and the purpose of the gospel. The design of the gospel was not that it should be the means of giving the principle of life but that it should bring the gift that was given by the sovereign Spirit to light. Regeneration is the gift of new life. Saving faith is the fruit of that new spiritual life which responds to God’s call, and the transformed heart is called to a holy life by sanctification...

The Most Neglected Chapter In The Bible : Romans 9: Romans 9

By: by W. E. Best

This is a study of Romans 9, and it is a companion book to God’s Longsuffering is Salvation (which is a study of 2 Peter 3:9). Both are primarily a discussion of God’s election of some to salvation, “vessels of mercy,” and His passing by others, “vessels of wrath.”

God's Longsuffering Is Salvation

By: by W. E. Best

This is a study of 2 Peter 3:9, and a companion book to The Most Neglected Chapter In The Bible (Romans 9). Both are primarily a discussion of God’s election of some to salvation and His passing by others. “The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.”

Justification Before God (Not By Faith)

By: by W. E. Best

The average professing Christian says the word “justify” means to make one righteous before God. If that is true, does a person’s faith or his works make him righteous before God? This study shows what saving faith is not, what saving faith is, and that justification before God is by Christ’s righteousness imputed to Christians. Neither faith nor works make a person righteous before God. Although God, faith, and works all declare the elect to be righteous, the declaratio...

Woman - Man's Completion

By: by W. E. Best

With the degeneration of God’s first institution, the home, society in general degenerates accordingly. The greatest contributor to a deteriorating society is the departure from God’s teaching concerning the home. This study takes us through the opening chapters of Genesis and traces the role of men and women in the home through the Bible. God’s original teaching on any subject must never be ignored. Therefore, man and woman in the institution of marriage for life was and is God’s standard.

Eternity and Time

By: by W. E. Best

Since time presently coexists with eternity, man who is a creature of time has difficulty differentiating between them. Man’s short time on earth bears a never ending relationship to eternity. Time, as we know it, will end someday, but God will usher in a New Heaven and New Earth, and believers will have resurrected, immortal bodies. There, we will worship and serve God forever, enjoying an “eternal weight of glory.”

Diminishing Spirituality in Local Churches : Studies in Revelation...

By: by W. E. Best

The seven churches represent local churches of every age. God commanded, condemned, warned, rebuked, and gave promises to the seven churches. The call to each of the seven churches is to hear. Seven lessons should be learned from the seven churches. Overcomers in each of the churches are comforted by the triune God because of their position in Christ.

God is Love

By: by W. E. Best

The most tragic theological error of our day is the belief that love is the chief attribute of God and led to the error of “love is God.” God who is love is maligned in this century by representing Him as loving without any regard for righteousness. God’s love is never separated from His law or His judgment. In fact, the love of God shines most brightly when we realize how much our sins deserve His righteous wrath.

Christ Could Not Be Tempted

By: by W. E. Best

Since Christ did not have a sin nature, solicitation to do something contrary to God’s will could not be entertained in His holy thought. The New Testament Greek verb for tempt can also mean to test or to try; and the Greek noun for temptation can also mean a test or a trial This study will show there is no justification for translating these words as “temptation” or “to tempt” when they are used in reference to Jesus Christ. The perfect Son of God didn’t have a sin natu...

Christ Emptied Himself

By: by W. E. Best

The Lord Jesus Christ is one Person with two Sonships. He is both the Son of God and the Son of Man. The Son of God in the bosom of the Father was pleased to condescend to become the Son of Man. He willingly assumed human nature in order to reveal the Father, redeem the elect, and communicate the knowledge of God to His people. Christ, during the days of His humiliation, did not consider His future honor of equality with God before men something to be seized. He was will...

The Church - Her Authority and Mission

By: by W. E. Best

Christian distinctives are clearly demonstrated in ecclesiology – the science of the church. Some have emphasized the local aspect of the church to the exclusion of the universal aspect, and others have stressed the universal aspect to the minimizing of the local. Spiritual authority in the local aspect of the church has been committed to elders. Physical authority in the local aspect of the church has been assigned to deacons. The mission of the church is to proclaim th...

The Saviour's Definite Redemption : Studies in Isaiah 53: Studies ...

By: by W. E. Best

Many professing Christians are horrified by the phrases “particular redemption,” “limited atonement,” and “limited redemption.” However, all professing Christians limit redemption; it is limited either in its extent (the elect) or in its quality. Those who say Christ died for every one without exception limit its quality since the Bible states that many have and will die in their sins. The extent is limited (to the elect who are actually saved) by those who have a Biblical view of redemption.

Free Grace Versus Free Will

By: by W. E. Best

The same God who has ordained all events has ordained the free agency of man in the midst of the course of events He foreordained. The gospel is not forced on the elect against their wills (Ps. 110:3). Man has no ability to respond to God unless our wills are changed through regeneration by the Holy Spirit. God gives Christians faith to believe and obey. This change makes us willing to accept the gospel. Since salvation is entirely God’s sovereign and gracious act, it do...

God Forgives Sinners

By: by W. E. Best

The “cleansing” flood of God’s forgiveness can be experienced only to the extent a person is utterly overwhelmed with sin and the need to be forgiven. The subject of forgiveness cannot be properly approached apart from the Biblical concept of sin, its origins, and its consequences. A person cannot fully appreciate forgiveness unless he knows who has forgiven him and of what he has been forgiven. We have no hope apart from God’s everlasting forgiveness through grace.

Studies in the Person and Work of Jesus Christ

By: by W. E. Best

Holiness is far more than the absence of sin; it is positive virtue. The advocates of peccability say, “Christ could have sinned, but He did not.” To say that He could have sinned is to deny positive holiness. To deny positive holiness, therefore, is to deny the holy character of God. Holiness is positive virtue which has neither room for nor interest in sin. The Lord Jesus could not sin because the days of His flesh meant only addition of experience, not variation of ch...

Regeneration and Conversion

By: by W. E. Best

Regeneration is an immediate act of God that imparts the principle of life without any participation by men. Conversion is the beginning of a holy life, and is the first of many conversion experiences throughout the Christian's earthly pilgrimage. God doesn’t make bad people into good people; instead, He makes dead people alive, grants faith to believe the gospel, and transforms hearts so that we then want to obey Him.
