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 />

Heb 11:18 Of whom it was said, That in Isaac shall thy seed be called<br />

Let your faith especially be strengthened in what God is able to do for you. (Rom. 4:21; 14:4; 2 Cor.<br />

9:8; 2 Tim. 1:12)<br />

Ro 4:21 And being fully persuaded that, what he had promised, he was able also to perform.<br />

Ro 14:4 Who art thou that judgest another man's servant? to his own master he standeth or<br />

falleth. Yea, he shall be holden up: for God is able to make him stand.<br />

2Co 9:8 And God is able to make all grace abound toward you; that ye, always having all<br />

sufficiency in all things, may abound to every good work:<br />

2Ti 1:12 For the which cause I also suffer these things: nevertheless I am not ashamed: for I<br />

know whom I have believed, and am persuaded that he is able to keep that which I have<br />

committed unto him against that day.<br />

Expect with certainty from Him that He will do for you great and glorious things, entirely above your<br />

own strength. See in the Holy Scriptures how constantly the power of God was the ground of the trust<br />

of His people. Take these words and hide them in your heart. Let the power of Jesus fill your soul.<br />

Ask only: 'What is my Jesus able to do?' What you really trust Him with, He is able to keep. (John<br />

13:1; 1 Cor. 1:8,9)<br />

Joh 13:1 Now before the feast of the passover, when Jesus knew that his hour was come that he<br />

should depart out of this world unto the Father, having loved his own which were in the world,<br />

he loved them unto the end.<br />

1Co 1:8 Who shall also confirm you unto the end, that ye may be blameless in the day of our<br />

Lord Jesus Christ.<br />

1Co 1:9 God is faithful, <strong>by</strong> whom ye were called unto the fellowship of his Son Jesus Christ our<br />

Lord.<br />

And learn also from Paul where he obtained the assurance that this power would keep his pledge: it<br />

was in his knowledge of Jesus. 'I know Him whom I have believed:' therefore I am assured. (John<br />

10:14,28; Gal. 2:20; 2 Tim. 4:18; 1 John 2:13,14)<br />

Joh 10:14 I am the good shepherd, and know my sheep, and am known of mine.<br />

Joh 10:28 And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man<br />

pluck them out of my hand.<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 />

2Ti 4:18 And the Lord shall deliver me from every evil work, and will preserve me unto his<br />
