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 />
And how come I then to the full enjoyment of this blessed life? 'I live in faith, the faith which is in the<br />
Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself up for me.' (John 6:29,35; 7:38; 10:10,38; Gal. 2:20)<br />
Joh 6:29 Jesus answered and said unto them, This is the work of God, that ye believe on him<br />
whom he hath sent.<br />
Joh 6:35 And Jesus said unto them, I am the bread of life: he that cometh to me shall never<br />
hunger; and he that believeth on me shall never thirst.<br />
Joh 7:38 He that believeth on me, as the scripture hath said, out of his belly shall flow rivers of<br />
living water.<br />
Joh 10:10 <strong>The</strong> thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they<br />
might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.<br />
Joh 10:38 But if I do, though ye believe not me, believe the works: that ye may know, and<br />
believe, that the Father is in me, and I in him.<br />
Ga 2:20 I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the<br />
life which I now live in the flesh I live <strong>by</strong> the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave<br />
himself for me.<br />
Through faith I reflect upon and contemplate His surrender to me as sure and glorious. Through faith I<br />
appropriate it. Through faith I trust in Jesus to confirm this surrender, to communicate Himself to me<br />
and reveal Himself within me. Through faith I await with certainty the full experience of salvation<br />
which arises from having Jesus as mine, to do all, all for me. Through faith, I live in this Jesus who<br />
loved me and gave Himself for me. and I say, 'No longer do I live, but Christ liveth in me.' Christian,<br />
pray believe it with your whole heart: Jesus gives Himself for you: He is wholly yours: He will do all<br />
for you. (Matt. 8:10; 9:2,22; Mark 11:24; Luke 7:50; 8:48; 17:19; 18:42; Rom. 4:16,21; 5:2; 11:20;<br />
Gal. 3:25,26; Eph. 1:19; 3:17)<br />
Mt 8:10 When Jesus heard it, he marvelled, and said to them that followed, Verily I say unto<br />
you, I have not found so great faith, no, not in Israel.<br />
Mt 9:2 And, behold, they brought to him a man sick of the palsy, lying on a bed: and Jesus<br />
seeing their faith said unto the sick of the palsy; Son, be of good cheer; thy sins be forgiven<br />
thee.<br />
Mt 9:22 But Jesus turned him about, and when he saw her, he said, Daughter, be of good<br />
comfort; thy faith hath made thee whole. And the woman was made whole from that hour.<br />
Mr 11:24 <strong>The</strong>refore I say unto you, What things soever ye desire, when ye pray, believe that ye<br />
receive them, and ye shall have them.<br />
Lu 7:50 And he said to the woman, Thy faith hath saved thee; go in peace.<br />
Lu 8:48 And he said unto her, Daughter, be of good comfort: thy faith hath made thee whole; go<br />
in peace.<br />
