The New Life by Andrew

Words of God for Young Disciples of Christ. The New Life aids Christians in their examination of the scripture and offers valuable information to believers who want to overcome sin and live the Christian life. While Murray's book is specifically designed for young converts, the text is useful to all Christians. Murray's chapters cover a variety of different topics that Christians, particularly those new to the faith, will find remarkably helpful. Murray discusses how Christians should approach the tasks of missionary work, prayer, confession, and baptism. The text also provides practical guidance regarding money, self-denial, discretion, and the temptations of worldly evil. New Life is a personal devotional, but it is also a resourceful tool for large congregations, small groups, and prayer meetings. The text is simply and easy to understand, and while each individual entry is rather short, Murray supplies substantial scriptural reference for further exploration.

the council: but whosoever shall say, Thou fool, shall be in danger of hell fire.<br />

Mt 5:26 Verily I say unto thee, Thou shalt <strong>by</strong> no means come out thence, till thou hast paid the<br />

uttermost farthing.<br />

Mt 5:27 Ye have heard that it was said <strong>by</strong> them of old time, Thou shalt not commit adultery:<br />

1Co 1:10 Now I beseech you, brethren, <strong>by</strong> the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that ye all speak<br />

the same thing, and that there be no divisions among you; but that ye be perfectly joined<br />

together in the same mind and in the same judgment.<br />

1Co 1:11 For it hath been declared unto me of you, my brethren, <strong>by</strong> them which are of the<br />

house of Chloe, that there are contentions among you.<br />

1Co 3:3 For ye are yet carnal: for whereas there is among you envying, and strife, and<br />

divisions, are ye not carnal, and walk as men?<br />

1Co 13:1 Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have not charity, I am<br />

become as sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal.<br />

1Co 13:3 And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be<br />

burned, and have not charity, it profiteth me nothing.<br />

Ga 5:5 For we through the Spirit wait for the hope of righteousness <strong>by</strong> faith.<br />

Ga 5:21 Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you<br />

before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the<br />

kingdom of God.<br />

Ga 5:26 Let us not be desirous of vain glory, provoking one another, envying one another.<br />

Col 3:8 But now ye also put off all these; anger, wrath, malice, blasphemy, filthy<br />

communication out of your mouth.<br />

Col 3:12 Put on therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, bowels of mercies, kindness,<br />

humbleness of mind, meekness, longsuffering;<br />

1Th 5:15 See that none render evil for evil unto any man; but ever follow that which is good,<br />

both among yourselves, and to all men.<br />

Jas 3:14 But if ye have bitter envying and strife in your hearts, glory not, and lie not against the<br />

truth.<br />

Christian, let all passionateness <strong>by</strong> put away from you: this follows on the command not to grieve the<br />

Spirit. Believe that the Holy Spirit, the great power of God, is in you. Surrender yourself every day to<br />

His indwelling, in faith that Jesus can keep you <strong>by</strong> Him: He will make and keep you gentle. Yea,<br />

believe, I pray you, in the power of God, and of Jesus and of the Holy Spirit to overcome temper.<br />

(Matt. 11:29; 1 Cor. 6:19,20; Gal. 6:1; Eph. 2:16,17; Col. 1:8; 2 Tim. 1:12)<br />

Mt 11:29 Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye<br />

shall find rest unto your souls.<br />

1Co 6:19 What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you,<br />
