In order to kindle the Spirit’s joy, we offer you the latest edition of the Free Grace Broadcaster: "Joy." Wilhelmus à Brakel introduces us to this great subject by defining joy and exploring its nature, then contrasts joy with sorrow and its counterfeit. Thomas Reade shows us that the gospel is truly glad tidings of boundless joy. Robert Asty declares that Christ should be the believer’s joy in all cases and conditions. Arthur Pink teaches us how to profit from Scripture and its revelation of joy. Great Awakening preacher Samuel Davies describes Christ’s joy in suffering for the great salvation of His people. The joy of the world is not like the joy of the Spirit: à Brakel, then, persuades believers to seek spiritual joy. That is followed by Asty’s seven directions for rejoicing in everything we face as Christ’s people. We must learn to maintain our joy, while at the same time balancing it with the reality of sorrow, warns Pink. And Charles Spurgeon concludes this digest of articles by emphasizing that joy is the God-commanded duty of all believers! May this issue of the FGB fill you with the earnest desire to rejoice in the Lord always! |
