Unchanging Christ [PDF ebook] 
And Other Sermons

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. Christ in them, is something more than belongs to manhood, and requires for its foundation the assumption of His deity. He is the unchanging Jesus because He is the Divine Son. The text resumes, at the end of the Epistle, the solemn words of the first chapter, which referred the declaration of the Psalmist to the Son Thou art the same, and thy years shall not fail. That Son, changeless and eternal by Divine immutability, is Jesus Christ, the incarnate Re deemer. This text may well be taken as our motto in looking forward, as I suppose we are all of us more or less doing, and trying to forecast the dim outlines of the coming events of this New Year. Whatever may happen, let us hold fast by that confidence, Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, and to-day, and for ever.
