  • Unveiled Hope
    UNVEILED HOPE By Scotty Smith (This content is used with permission of Scotty Smith) UNVEILED HOPE INTRODUCTION: The Fulfillment of Our Great Hope As I write these words I am sitting at the foot of the Swiss Alps in the little fishing village of Iseltwald, just outside of Interlaken. All of my God given senses are engaged and heightened with an exhilarating intensity. Never have I seen bluer skies with a richness of hue that betrays description. I can feel the fiery warmth of the fall colors in the trees along the ridge of the Alps. And, I can taste the pure vanilla of the fresh white morning snow. Is there something that can be called too beautiful? Am I close to sensory overload? Before me is Lake Brienz whose blue-green waters seem so vast, so inviting, so absolutely calming. No tempest, just a tapestry of peacefulness that resonates with something deep in the core of my soul. It is so good to be here, right now, drinking in this astonishing vision..... for it has been a hard year, really, a hard season of life. So many changes, so many demands ..... I don't know when spiritual warfare has seemed as intense. Good friends are overwhelmed. Family members are facing loss and the adjustments forced with the advancing years. Maybe that's why this setting is just drawing me in. I feel like I am inhaling something much more vital than oxygen. The quiet of this place is so pronounced, so obvious, so centering. All I can hear is the rolling movement of a passenger train on the other side of the lake making its way to the wood carving village of Brienz.

This project brings to life joy that isn’t based on circumstances but identify in Christ alone. The first single “Battle Belongs” has already garnered success on radio and CCLI charts. It is evidence that Phil has cemented himself as on of the hymn creators of our generation. ‘House Of The Lord’ Song Track Listing: 01. Battle Belongs 07. His Name Is Jesus 02.

In order to give his work the greatest richness and variety he has laid under contribution more than three hundred widely-known authors on both sides of the Atlantic. In the main, his selections seem to have been made with excellent taste ; the ruling motive being to choose those things which would be the most practical and the most profitable. Many of them are already familiar to us all — but that very fact proves their value. There are other readers coming on the stage of life who need to know these " house hold words," and one object of this volume is to carry these coined thoughts of standard value into a wide and permanent circulation. My friend who originated and compiled this work has chosen three grand themes.

O Jesus, thou hast promised to all who follow thee, that where thou art in glory there shall thy servant be; and, Jesus, I have promised to serve thee to the end; O give me grace to follow, my Master and my Friend. O let me feel thee near me! The world is ever near; I see the sights that dazzle, the tempting sounds I hear; my foes are ever near me, around me and within; but Jesus, draw thou nearer, and shield my soul from sin. O let me hear thee speaking in accents clear and still, above the storms of passion, the murmurs of self-will. O speak to reassure me, to hasten or control; O speak and make me listen, thou guardian of my soul. Texts used with permission granted through CCLI 578579.

Confession of Faith Westminster Larger Catechism #72 Question: What is justifying faith? Ans: Justifying faith is a saving grace, wrought in the heart of a sinner by the Spirit and Word of God, whereby he, being convinced of his sin and misery, and of the disability in himself and all other creatures, to recover him out of his lost condition, not only assents to the truth of the promise of the gospel, but receives and rests upon Christ and his righteousness, therein held forth, for pardon of sin, and for the accepting and accounting of his person, righteous in the sight of God for salvation.
