I listened to this purely by accident. I had a Christian video on whilst preparing dinner and was on auto play so this ended up getting played. I recall after about 20 mins in, just thinking how eloquent the writing was and even more the way it was so beautifully making me yearn to go deeper within Gods word…40mins in and I realise the author did not sound like a lot of these modern preachers, whom, some of which, I must confess make me me a little weary in spirit. However, this audio reading was so refreshing to my spirit, I looked to the internet for the author and stumbled across an old photograph of him and read a brief biographical account of his life. Truly, a life lived for God, the love of Christ abounding in him and through his published works as well as his tireless evangelism that led him to different parts of the world - winning souls for God, a man who has gone on to glory to be with our Lord and Saviour, great is his reward in heaven! I am so overjoyed to find that this channel has many audio books on solid preachers of a bygone era. Although I do believe this generation needs some of the modern preachers that are about I just feel so compelled and encouraged to read my actual physical bible more rather than just google bible versus on any old device - when I listen or read preachings from preachers from the past. Thank you 🙏 God bless this channel. Subscribed!
I think it is spiritually apropos that this work re-emerged at this point in our collective and final days of history. As we urgently prepare for the return of Jesus the Christ, material like this helps soften the hearts and prepares room for the Spirit
Beautiful story. Ever heard of J. Vernon McGee? He’s been gone a while but there are plenty of his sermons here on YT. He used to be on the radio. Thru the Bible, J. Vernon McGee. Adrian Rogers is also a pastor who now resides with the Lord who’s wonderful sermons can still be heard. Take care, God bless.
I fell asleep with another video on and then this came on. I had a dream I was at college and the professor was going into why the bible is real. I thought, man this isn't what most college classes are like nowadays lol.

Urgent prayer request. It seems my airway is collapsing. Trying to get an appointment ASAP with a lung specialist. I’ve been going from doctor to doctor for almost two years to get a diagnosis. Meanwhile I’m worsening by the day. Please pray I get help in time. I live at least one hour from the nearest ER.
This is the third time I have listened to this Glorious work. It gets better each time I hear it and helps to strengthen my faith in my Lord Jesus Christ.

@@martinkent333myths are real in every language where they originated. History is the record of events. The resurrection is a history with evidence beyond reasonable doubts.
@martinkent333 Christianity is not a cult- maybe Catholicism, but that's not Christianity. It may contain some elements of Christianity but it is the Gospel & from which we derive Christianity.

Pray for me, this fear of being double minded has been scary, and the fear of being unredeemable has continually been a far worse fear... But I reckon the fear of being hated as was Essau... That to me would be unbearable. To think of Eternity without Christ is horrific. Pray for my Wife and family as well, for it seems when I draw nigh unto Jesus, is when it seems the folks I love most are used against me in a stronger way. As though got from every angle. Pray that The LORD send us a messenger of Truth. Even an Angel. May The Lord God keep you and your family safe warm and fed in Jesus Name Amen. I hope this makes sense to someone...I know it may sound complicated... And it is. Even more so unto me, I suppose. They're seems to be much more but anyways, please take time out and pray for us, as I will you, or a loved one of yours, if you need... Sorry for the novella . Love in The Lord -G.
You are not alone, friend. The Lord promises to be with us. All you need to worry about is being true to Him. What others do, even family, matters less than it does to stay close to Christ. He will see you through, of that I am sure.
@@jeremiahzeiset Thank you for the reply. God bless you brother. Take care and stay safe. I believe it's about to get a bit rough the way things are looking.
Love Torrey’s books. This truth he teaches here is essential for the Christian to have a successful prayer life for how can we believe God will hear us if we don’t believe His Words, His truths and especially, His promises?
Thank you so very much for putting this on line..FREE! Torrey’s writings has blessed me with a better understanding of the scriptures. If it weren’t for the audios and your amazing narration, I’d probably not have known of Torrey.
Martinkent: 1st Cor 1:18 KJV - "For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the Power of God." I beg you to reconsider your stance- the Bible is not myths. Consider that there is a way that seems right but leads to destruction. Jesus said many times- "Do not be deceived."
I have never got into the habit of reading, I regret to say and so these beautiful readings are an absolute Godsend to me. Thank you for your faithfulness.

Thank God for the Way, the Truth and the Life! Without naming names, hundreds of years after the Crucifixion and the Resurrection of our LORD Christ Jesus, the evil one formed a religious and a political organisation which masquerades as an Abrahamic religion in order to deny the Crucifixion. By so doing he has managed to mislead billions of precious souls to unwittingly worship him straight into hell. O LORD, deal with their pride and extreme anger and save them.
The Bible is the Word of God. The New Testament written in AD time fulfills what were written in the Old Testament written in BC time confirmed that the Bible is God's Word.
5:16"It us sometimes said that the Bible nowhere claims to be the Word of God" 16 All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: 17 That the man of God may be perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good works. 2 Timothy 3.

Martin, Myths are hardly what is of value to a true Christian. Perhaps to secular man there is subjective value of mans creative imaginación. The Bible is literally, infinitely beneficial to the remnant chosen by God. Few are those privileged to realize that God's plan of salvation thru His self authored ,supernatural book of life....cannot be fustrated. Many have tried,none have succeeded to change the original 66 books chosen divinely by our creator. Secular man is angry towards God,their emotions kindle In vain.....He is infinitesimal in every fathomonal way..."HE Laughs".....You & I will both declare He is the "I AM"..He is Go,.along with all humankind, before partíng to perpetual horror of agony,or everlasting Joy with God. By the way geopolitical/ethnic Israel was used parabolically & metafórically,thru Biblical history, by God, for His perfect gospel to His elect. Best wishes, D. Santos
This is my first listen to this book. It helped me in my faith in Christ by making it very clear that I need to honor the cross and be careful with what I consume. Praise Christ-

Mark Twain "Properly read, the Bible is the most potent force for atheism ever conceived." Isaac Asimov "It is not a God, just and good, but a devil, under the name of God, that the Bible describes." Thomas Paine "The Bible, a collection of honorable, but still purely primitive, legends which are nevertheless pretty childish." Albert Einstein
@@AtamMardes Btw, the first quote you shared isn't actually conformably spoken by Mark Twain. The second Nark Twain quote apparently is: "It ain't the parts of the Bible that I can't understand that bother me, it is the parts that I do understand." And I agree - the parts of the Bible that are very clear should bother someone, especially if they are refusing Christ. It should be deeply concerning.
@@jeremiahzeiset The sin-sacrifice-resurrection story implies a superstitious God who values blood-sacrifice. The superstitious early folks, who valued blood sacrifice, created the God of the Bible in their own superstitious image.

To Aneko Press: Hello. This excellent book about the God-breathed scripture, penned by R.A. Torrey is outstandingly good! Thanks for making You Tube a better place. I have copied the Y.T. internet address and sent it to some people I know. So many people do NOT read. Hopefully they will listen to this audiobook and others especially titles by J.C. Ryle. I just sent you a few dollars so you can keep doing what you are doing. {Would send more, but I'm retired and not wealthy.} Isaiah 40: 8
Thank you for your support and encouragement, friend. And thank you for sharing the videos with others - that is appreciated. And all praises go to the Lord. He is great, and greatly to be praised! (Ps. 48:1)

I just wanted to thank you. I am a Christian, I do believe in Christ and in the bible. I have had questions though in regard to mans understanding and interpretation of it. I still do; however, you have a gift for explaining things and have helped me in my walk with Jesus. God Bless you.
I am truly enjoying this reading. Can someone answer a question for me? Why does the author say that Christ went into the grave Wednesday evening and not Friday evening?
This man is sorely mistaken about the apostles gathering on Sunday for the weekly Sabbath. The only day they met on Sunday for a Sabbath service was Pentecost. Previously known as the feast of weeks or first fruits. The very day the NT church was started. For an in depth study on who changed the day. Read the Catholics confession in their article Romes challenge to Protestants why keep thou the Sunday. And read revelation 14:12. No man can make a day holy only God can do that. And no man can change God's word read revelation 22:18-19 to see the consequences of thinking they can. And finally read Daniel 7:25. Which clearly tells you deceived people will think they can do it
I am so thankful I found this video especially this time that my faith is being tested and questioned in a city I lived in which is inside of Saudi Arabia. I have been a lazy Christian ever since I accepted Jesus Christ but I think the time has come for me to seek the truth. I pray that God directs my path unto Him thru Jesus Christ, with the power and guidance of the Holy Spirit. This I pray in Jesus name. Amen.
Phil 4:6 Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; 7 and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.
Rev.1:14 And God said, Let there be lights in the firmament of the heaven to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days, and years: 15 And let them be for lights in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth: and it was so. 16 And God made two great lights; the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night: he made the stars also. 17 And God set them in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth, 18 And to rule over the day and over the night, and to divide the light from the darkness: and God saw that it was good.

It’s always been strange to me that there are people who will put what they believe some early church members believed over what the word of God, the Holy Scriptures, clearly say. Look at the horrible, and even heretical (Galatians)beliefs that Churches were teaching while the Apostles were still living..and you are willing to trust in what churches or individuals Christians taught after they were dead? The wise Christians, like those in Berea, wouldn’t even believe Paul without comparing his words against scripture daily! Weigh everything you believe against the God-Breathed scriptures. Never against the claims and beliefs of men. If the mistakes that Paul points out in his letters to the churches aren’t enough to prove to you that you should trust scripture over individual church teachings, then look at Christ’s letters to the 7 churches in Revelation. Stop trusting the authority of men and start believing the sovereign word of God. Your very soul depends on it.
Claims of divinely revealed knowledge are always such a stretch. If God wants us to know of its existence and message for humanity it has failed miserably. No one is on the same page.
Are you sure that no one is on the same page? Even though there are some fakes, I think you would be surprised at how many genuine, unified believers in the word of God there are. The thing is, the Bible never changes. It's the same, consistent, and true.
@jeremiahzeiset which version as there are many? And the number of denominations (many in conflict over the essentials) doesn't speak well of this supposed unified message.
@@williamcharles2117 Look, if anything is truly valuable, there will be imitations (think of all the jewelry knockoffs, for example). No one imitates worthless things, only valuable things. With so many false denominations, and there are some, that only highlights the fact that there is a genuine that is being imitated. But within the genuine, there is wonderful love and unity in the truth. I wish you could experience it.
First understand that the English version of the new testament is inaccurate to the original Greek language and that the Old testament original Hebrew cannot be translated into English .Hello?
I have never heard of a language that can't be translated into other languages. What is your basis for saying that Hebrew can't be translated into English? I understand that there are nuances to a language that can be hard to translate, but still, generally there is some equivalent words or phrases that bring out the same meaning into any language.
It's not authentic. The problem, as I am always stating to my own subs, is the apologists largely give an opinion based on the Gospels which we have no idea who wrote them. And they were written well after Yeshua's death. That negates all the Lee Strobel interviewees, the Craigs, the McDowells and everyone else who keeps debating proof that isn't there. You can't use the bible to prove the bible. That basic premise is a fallacy that any grad student would know but these doctrorates in the apologist world simply ignore. You take away this fallacy and the apologist has nothing to stand on. Cheers, DCF
You're forgetting that the Bible is not one book. It's actually 66 separate documents from over 1,400 years. Those documents have been compiled into one book, but it's really a comparison of documents. Look at all 66 documents and see if they cross reference. Look at other sources as well if you wish, but you have to look at the sources which includes these documents. To disregard these documents in your search for the truth would be to ignore the evidence.
DCF, i wonder What do you believe happens when you die? And how did the amazing things around us come to be? Consider the irredicible complexities of life in general- no way an organism can reproduce without everything working at the cellular level, plus you need a male & female at the exact same development- no way that happems by accident. Either the Bible is true or not and we all are free to choose what we believe, even if many are wrong.
Saturday Sabbath has nothing to do with the Jews. It was a day given by God right from creation in Genesis chapter 2. It is part of the 10 commandments.. if the Sabbath day is changed by any person, this person is anti Christ and should change all the 10 commandments. Actually Christ honoured and rested on the Sabbath even in His death.
@@maryojodeh4391 Remember the works the Jesus Christ did on the Shabbat (Sabbath). Remember what is written in Matthew 12:1-8. Jesus Christ is the fulfillment of the law. The cross of Jesus Christ is connected to the 10 commandments, and the two greatest commandments that Jesus Christ speaks of in Mark 12:29-31. The greatest commandment and the first half of the 10 commandments deal with the vertical, love the LORD your God with all your heart, with all you soul, with all your mind, and with all your strength, this is the vertical command between us and our Heavenly Father, this is where we learn what love is in all it's fulness objectively, the second half of the 10 commandments are connected to the second great commandment, love your neighbor as yourself. This is the horizontal command that we take the love we learn from the first command (the vertical) and share it with our neighbors (the horizontal). The keeping of these two commandments (Mark 12:29-31) leads us to the ultimate love of our Heavenly Father which is found in the cross of Jesus Christ and the price He alone paid for the sins of the world. I pray this message may be received with as much humility and grace as it is delivered through the guidance of the Holy Spirit in truth love life and light. In Jesus Christ name I pray, Amen. שבת שלום Shabbat Shalom

Acts 3:12-15 (KJV) 12 And when Peter saw [it], he answered unto the people, Ye men of Israel, why marvel ye at this? or why look ye so earnestly on us, as though by our own power or holiness we had made this man to walk? 13 The God of Abraham, and of Isaac, and of Jacob, the God of our fathers, hath glorified his Son Jesus; whom ye delivered up, and denied him in the presence of Pilate, when he was determined to let [him] go. 14 But ye denied the Holy One and the Just, and desired a murderer to be granted unto you; 15 And killed the Prince of life, whom God hath raised from the dead; whereof we are witnesses. It wasn’t Rome who killed Christ and continue to blaspheme Him in the Talmud to this day. Those people in Israel will not allow the Gospel to be preached in their midst & call us goyim, to be used by them for profit. They are not chosen, they are imposters. Matthew 13:24-30 (KJV) 24 Another parable put he forth unto them, saying, The kingdom of heaven is likened unto a man which sowed good seed in his field: 25 But while men slept, his enemy came and sowed tares among the wheat, and went his way. 26 But when the blade was sprung up, and brought forth fruit, then appeared the tares also. 27 So the servants of the householder came and said unto him, Sir, didst not thou sow good seed in thy field? from whence then hath it tares? 28 He said unto them, An enemy hath done this. The servants said unto him, Wilt thou then that we go and gather them up? 29 But he said, Nay; lest while ye gather up the tares, ye root up also the wheat with them. 30 Let both grow together until the harvest: and in the time of harvest I will say to the reapers, Gather ye together first the tares, and bind them in bundles to burn them: but gather the wheat into my barn. Matthew 13:35-40 (KJV) 35 That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, saying, I will open my mouth in parables; I will utter things which have been kept secret from the foundation of the world. 36 Then Jesus sent the multitude away, and went into the house: and his disciples came unto him, saying, Declare unto us the parable of the tares of the field. 37 He answered and said unto them, He that soweth the good seed is the Son of man; 38 The field is the world; the good seed are the children of the kingdom; but the tares are the children of the wicked [one]; 39 The enemy that sowed them is the devil; the harvest is the end of the world; and the reapers are the angels. 40 As therefore the tares are gathered and burned in the fire; so shall it be in the end of this world. Far from chosen, they are the tares until they repent & accept Jesus Christ.

Actually, the Bible is not one book, but a compilation of 66 historical documents and letters, written over a period of about 1500 years. But those 66 documents are not the only ones that exist confirming the truth. And if you don't trust historical documents, what do you trust?
@@jeremiahzeiset @Jeremiah Zeiset Bible is not a historical document. What are you talking about? Most of todays scholars agree that the entire bible is corrupted, forged, contradictory, full of errors, genocide and other evil stuff and we do not even know who wrote it except a few books from the NT. How do historians know that the bible is not written by whom the church claims to be? Well today they have reliable equipment to tell you exactly when something has been written. If someone today reads Shakespeare he will know it is not from the last century for sure. There are archeological findings. Everybody knows except the people who gather in church that Paul wrote only 6 of his 13 letters. The evidence is overwhelming. After all who can trust a book that says kill all the infants on more than one occasion or having a prophet call upon god who sent two bears that killed 42 small children and that's just the beginning. There are deal-breaking unfulfilled prophesies and contradictions that is against all logic. I dont think you ever even read the whole bible
Stephen was made a deacon after Jesus ascended, and the apostle Paul did not yet believe at that point. It wasn't until after that time that Paul heard the voice from heaven on the road to Damascus, but nowhere does scripture say that Paul saw Jesus after the resurrection.

Absolute falsehood because the bible has been altered to over 3000 different CHANGED VERSIONS of the biblical the biblical texts 🤔... So what does that tell you?
You have made a grave error. Jesus was crucified Friday. Died about 3 O'clock was laid to rest that Friday. His disciples did not prepare His body because Sabbath was soon starting. Sabbath is FROM SUNSET FRIDAY NIGHT TO SATURDAY SUNSET)1A They, went and kept the sabbath (the 7th day of the week) when sabbath ended on the 1st day of the week (sunday) they returned to finish preparing His body but, it was gone. Sabbath is , was and always will be on the 7th day of the week. We will be keeping sabbath with our God, Jesus Himself will be leading sabbath services.
Son of God The Son of God is not the second person in the blessed Trinity as Christendom contends, but the ONE GOD (who was only Spirit) assuming “human flesh” for the work of redemption. If we seek the truth from the Word of God, the Old Testament is truly “monotheistic” in its entirety. Moses, the author of the Pentateuch is said by scholars to be founder of monotheism in Israel. The idea of the Trinity always must be read back into the Old Testament. The prophets who predicted the coming of a Saviour and a redeemer, always declared that it would be God who would make His appearance for His redemptive work (Psa. 50:3; Isa. 35:4; 59:16; 52:10; Micah 5:2). It is the Prophet Isaiah that goes further and predicts that when God did make His appearance in the flesh, it would be in a miraculous fashion by a “virgin birth” (Isa. 7:14) and that “her child born, her son given, would be called Wonderful, Counselor, the Mighty God, the Everlasting Father, the Prince of Peace” (Isa. 9:6). We believe that the New Testament writers, being first Israelites and then Spirit-filled, concurred fully with the message of the prophets (Eph. 2:20). Therefore, St. John did not introduce the second person in his prologue to his Gospel account. However, St. John lets us know that the Word in the beginning was “God” (St. John 1:1), and that Word (God-Spirit) was made flesh (St. John 1:14) and tabernacled with men. He writes in his epistle that “the Word which was from the beginning had taken on corporeality and had “been seen, heard and handle” (I John 1:1-2). The prophets showed that the impossibility of the Almighty in finding a suitable Redeemer (Isa. 59:16-20; 63:5) caused Him to take on the role Himself. Because those in need of redemption were children of “flesh and blood” God assumed “part of the same” for the work of redemption (Heb. 2:14-17). The Redeemer had to be a “kinsman”, so our God became one with mankind through the incarnation; and since redemption’s price was that of the “precious blood”, He had to partake of flesh and blood. The Virgin birth made it possible for our God to assume human flesh and a blood stream not contaminated by “Adam depravity”, thereby making it capable and suitable for redemption (Heb. 9:12-14; 10:19; Acts 20:28). All scriptures are from the KJV Bible
He, the narrator, started out good, being respectful, but at 14:40 he starts the messing up, making just a dumb claim, one that a 10 year old can easily refute, violating the first and second Commandments, hence proving this narrative to be untruth, and I stopped listening.
First time listening.. .chapter 7 is incorrect, the Apostles never changed the Holy Day....they would meet to break bread but that does not make it a Holy Day.... in Chapter 6 he mentioned Christ in the tomb on Wednesday night to Saturday... again, another error, he was on the cross and died on the cross on a Friday - PREPARATION day as the Sabbath (Saturday) drew near and so the women could not embalm his body until after, that is when Mary went to the tomb searching for him and found he was risen and told the others and they came running. 25 years of studying and we miss these important factors???
God Did It! The sun of righteousness! Jesus was the son of man on his mother’s side, but the son of God on his father’s side. Jesus was the seed of David on his mother’s side, but the root of David on his father’s side. He was a preacher on his mother’s side, but the creator on his father’s side. He was finite on his mother’s side; infinite on his father’s side. Natural on his mother’s side; supernatural on his father’s side. Physical on his mother’s side, spiritual on his father’s side. Temporal on his mother’s side; eternal on his father’s side. Six feet tall on his mother’s side, fill all space on his father’s side. Jesus got hungry on his mother’s side, but he fed 5,000 on his father’s side. He walked by the sea on his mother’s side, walked on the sea on his father’s side. He preached the word on his mother side; he was the word on his father’s side. Jesus prayed in the garden on his mother’s side, but answers our prayers on his father’s side. He was tempted by the devil on his mother’s side, but he strengthens you when you get tempted on his father’s side. 33 years old on his mother’s side, he is the ancient of days on his father’s side. He died on a cross on his mother’s side; he rose from the dead on his father’s side. He got his body from his mother’s side; blood from his father’s side and he took that blood to the cross. And with that blood He purchased the Church of the living God with His OWN blood. Acts 20:28; I Peter 2:9-10 KJV Acts 2:36-38; 4:10-12; Ephesians 4:5; Colossians 3:17 KJV
