    Of the Second Part of Christ's Kingly Office - TFOL #17

    This morning's devotional is from "The Fountain of Life" by John Flavel as we look at the 17th sermon based on Eph. 1:22: "And he has put all things under His feet, and gave Him to be the head over all things to the church". Last sermon we looked at Christ's kingdom of grace in the hearts of his people, and here Flavel shows us the kingdom of providence over all creation. Jesus isn't just the King of Zion, he is also the King of kings, and Lord of lords. He rules all things by his sovereign dominion and wisdom. Flavel shows us what this means, and applies it to our hearts that we might bow the knee, and not grumble over our circumstances—for they are all working for our good, and for God's glory. This is the sweetness of knowing the High King of Heaven. Enjoy!

    Of the First Part of Christ's Kingly Office - TFOL #16

    This morning's devotional is from "The Fountain of Life" by John Flavel as we look at the 16th sermon based on 2 Cor. 10:5: "Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ". Here Flavels opens up the first part of Christ's Kingly office in its spiritual reality in the hearts of God's people. He conquers the hearts of His elect with Gospel power and He rules them by His Word and Spirit as we submit to His Royal Law. He then closes the sermon with applications to the people of Christ's Kingdom. Behold the King in all His beauty!

    Of the Second Fruit of Christ's Priesthood - TFOL #15

    This morning's devotional is from "The Fountain of Life" by John Flavel as we look at the 15th sermon based on Gal. 4:4-5: "But when the fullness of time had come, God sent forth his Son born of a woman, born under the law, to redeem those who were under the law, that we might receive adoption as sons". As Flavel closes his sermons on the Priesthood of Christ he spends this shorter message meditating on the blessing of adoption into God's family, and the eternal inheritance of God's people. Let this warm your heart with the eternal hope of the Gospel.

    Of the First Fruit of Christ's Priesthood - TFOL #14

    This morning's devotional is from "The Fountain of Life" by John Flavel as we look at the 14th sermon based on Gal. 3:13: "Christ has redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us". This was a glorious meditation on the Cross of Calvary and all that Jesus has done in saving his precious people by grace alone. Flavel then applies the text to our minds and hearts, to take refuge in the blood, and to be sanctified by the blood.

    Of the Second Part of Christ's Priestly Office - TFOL #13

    This morning's devotional is from "The Fountain of Life" by John Flavel as we look at the 13th sermon based on Hebrews 7:25: "Wherefore He is able also to save them to the uttermost that come unto God by Him, seeing He ever liveth to make intercession for them". Flavel warmly meditates on what it is for Christ to pray and plead for us as our Advocate, and how we can grow into the assurance of faith on this basis, with some concluding applications for our Christian lives. Oh to know with deeper love that our names are graven on Christ's hands and heart. Be blessed!

    Of the First Part of Christ's Priestly Office - TFOL #12

    This morning's devotional is from "The Fountain of Life" by John Flavel as we look at the 12th sermon based on Hebrews 10:14: "For by one offering he has perfected forever them that are sanctified". Flavel gazes upon the offering of Christ as our Lamb and Priest in this sermon. He shows us what it means for Christ to be our sin-offering, who Christ was offered unto, whom he died for, and then applies the text in pleading with men to find their interest, salvation, and hope in Christ alone. May your heart be warmed at Calvary's Cross.

    The Nature & Necessity of the Priesthood of Christ - TFOL #11

    This morning's devotional is from "The Fountain of Life" by John Flavel as we look at the 11th sermon based on Hebrews 9:23: "It was therefore necessary that the patterns of these things in the heavens should be purified with these; but the heavenly things themselves with better sacrifices than these". Here Flavel uses the necessity of OT sacrifices which pointed forward to the necessity of the blood of Jesus Christ for the true forgiveness of our sins. He opens up the general nature of Christ's Priesthood, and why He is the only one who can bring salvation to those who believe. May your heart be warmed in our Precious Lamb.
