helps. There are word studies and books of sermons and all
kinds of aids but there is only one principle that is
indispensable. You can’t live without it. That is total reliance
of God’s Holy Spirit. It’s God’s book. Only God can reveal
God. I can’t reveal God. Only God can reveal God. This Bible
is like the Lord Jesus. There is a human side and a divine side.
Some people only get the human side. Only God can give the
divine side. He promises that if we would come as little children
He would reveal Christ to us. Gal. 1:15&16, “But when He
who had set me apart even from my mother’s womb, and called
me through His grace, was pleased to reveal His Son in me, that
I might preach Him among the Gentiles, I did not immediately
consult with flesh and blood…” What was true of Paul is true
of each one of us. He set you aside when you were born. In His
grace He called you. Now He wants to reveal His Son in you
and then He’ll send you out.
I am Ed Miller and I’m a redeemed sinner and a lover of the
Lord Jesus. I’ve set my heart to know the Lord in every way
possible that a redeemed sinner can know the Lord on this side
of heaven. I seek Him and I pray that you are also seeking the
Lord. I wish my Lillian could have joined me. She has an
illness and is unable to travel but she promised that she will be
praying for us during these days. I’m following the suggestions
of our Brother Frederic to share fundamental truths. It’s
limiting but it’s so important to have the foundations. There are
so many foundations, it was not easy to choose which to speak
on.
So, as I waited upon the Lord, I thought I would share the
foundations that have most helped me. Nothing will be new.
I’m sure you have heard all of this before. I pray that it will be
alive and fresh. The thing that is going to make it alive and
fresh is that we’ll be talking about a Person. His name is Jesus.
That’s why we’ve gathered. I pray that you’ve come to see the
Lord.
