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.

<strong>Andrew</strong> Murray on <strong>The</strong> <strong>New</strong> <strong>Life</strong>: Words of God for Young Disciples Text<br />

Ac 14:28 And there they abode long time with the disciples.<br />

Ac 15:4 And when they were come to Jerusalem, they were received of the church, and of the<br />

apostles and elders, and they declared all things that God had done with them.<br />

Ac 15:5 But there rose up certain of the sect of the Pharisees which believed, saying, That it<br />

was needful to circumcise them, and to command them to keep the law of Moses.<br />

Ro 11:25 For I would not, brethren, that ye should be ignorant of this mystery, lest ye should be<br />

wise in your own conceits; that blindness in part is happened to Israel, until the fulness of the<br />

Gentiles be come in.<br />

Ro 11:33 O the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and knowledge of God! how<br />

unsearchable are his judgments, and his ways past finding out!<br />

Ro 15:10 And again he saith, Rejoice, ye Gentiles, with his people.<br />

Eph 3:5 Which in other ages was not made known unto the sons of men, as it is now revealed<br />

unto his holy apostles and prophets <strong>by</strong> the Spirit;<br />

Eph 3:8 Unto me, who am less than the least of all saints, is this grace given, that I should<br />

preach among the Gentiles the unsearchable riches of Christ;<br />

Eph 3:10 To the intent that now unto the principalities and powers in heavenly places might be<br />

known <strong>by</strong> the church the manifold wisdom of God<br />

5. What a blessing it is for the world. What would we have been, had not missionaries come to our<br />

heathen forefathers in Europe? What a glorious blessing has onto missionary work already won in<br />

some lands? What help is there for the hundred millions of heathen, if not in missions? (Isa.<br />

49:6,12,18,22; 54:1,2)<br />

Isa 49:6 And he said, It is a light thing that thou shouldest be my servant to raise up the tribes of<br />

Jacob, and to restore the preserved of Israel: I will also give thee for a light to the Gentiles, that<br />

thou mayest be my salvation unto the end of the earth.<br />

Isa 49:12 Behold, these shall come from far: and, lo, these from the north and from the west;<br />

and these from the land of Sinim.<br />

Isa 49:18 Lift up thine eyes round about, and behold: all these gather themselves together, and<br />

come to thee. As I live, saith the LORD, thou shalt surely clothe thee with them all, as with an<br />

ornament, and bind them on thee, as a bride doeth.<br />

Isa 49:22 Thus saith the Lord GOD, Behold, I will lift up mine hand to the Gentiles, and set up<br />

my standard to the people: and they shall bring thy sons in their arms, and thy daughters shall<br />

be carried upon their shoulders.<br />

Isa 54:1 Sing, O barren, thou that didst not bear; break forth into singing, and cry aloud, thou<br />

that didst not travail with child: for more are the children of the desolate than the children of the<br />

married wife, saith the LORD.<br />

Isa 54:2 Enlarge the place of thy tent, and let them stretch forth the curtains of thine habitations:<br />

spare not, lengthen thy cords, and strengthen thy stakes<br />
