In His Footsteps: Studies for Edification from the Life of Christ by Richard C. H. Lenski
In His Footsteps: Studies for Edification from the Life of Christ by Richard C. H. Lenski

“In the footsteps of Christ, the Firstborn, we, His brethren, are to follow… The life of Christ is a record of invincible courage and supreme fearlessness… the courage of Christ is of such a nature as to be repeated and wrought in us also, even in the most timid and fearful of human hearts… the fearlessness of Christ alone can implant itself in the hearts of the most timid and shrinking, and give them a boldness as far above mere natural courage as the spiritual is above the fleshly. — From Chapter 22.”

New Gospel Sermons by Richard C. H. Lenski
New Gospel Sermons by Richard C. H. Lenski

“Christ our Savior and all his apostles preached justification by faith, even as did the prophets of the Old Testament. Justification is the central doctrine of all the Scriptures, the heart and soul of the entire Christian religion. All believers are justified, all the saints in heaven now have been made what they are by justification, and at the last day the righteous at Christ’s right hand will be there because they have continued in justification to the end.” — R.C.H. Lenski

Kings and Priests by Richard Lenski
Kings and Priests by Richard Lenski

“The more we meditate on the titles thus bestowed upon us, the more we find that we must think more highly of ourselves in our connection with the Savior. We are spiritually of royal descent. Actually we are nothing less than kings. It is true, in one sense we are slaves, “bondmen” as the Greek has it, owned in soul and body by our Lord, so that we belong wholly to him as our King, his word and will supreme for us, to be obeyed in all things without question. Yet in another sense we are kings. There is no one above us save Christ and God. Joined to our Lord and made one with him, we do indeed rule and reign with him. And while as yet we are uncrowned, there are heavenly crowns laid up for us and for all that love his appearing. 2 Tim. 4:8.” — Richard Lenski
