Eternity Weighed in the Balance

Eternity Weighed in the Balance

C Matthew McMahon

Puritan Publications
2025
pokkari
Where will you spend eternity? It is not a question to be taken lightly. Life is fleeting, death is certain, and what comes after is unchangeable. Eternity Weighed in the Balance does not deal in sentimental notions or half-truths. It is a book that confronts the soul with the reality of heaven and hell, salvation and damnation, and the only hope found in Jesus Christ. The Bible speaks plainly about what awaits beyond the grave. Heaven is not a mere comfort of the imagination, nor is hell a relic of medieval superstition. This book lays out what Scripture actually teaches-what heaven is, where it is, who will be there, and what the redeemed will experience for all eternity. But it does not shy away from the darker truth. Hell is real. It is a place of eternal torment, unrelenting sorrow, and unquenchable fire. Christ Himself spoke of it in the most sobering terms, warning of its horrors and the dreadful reality of everlasting punishment. But this book is not meant to leave the reader in terror-it is meant to drive him to the only refuge: Jesus Christ, the Savior of sinners. What must a man do to be saved? Is faith alone enough? What does true conversion look like? Can a person know, beyond doubt, that he is right with God? These are not academic questions; they are matters of life and death, heaven and hell. For the indifferent sinner, this book is a wake-up call. For the false professor, it is a warning. For the earnest seeker, it is a guide. And for the true believer, it is a reminder of the glory to come and the terror from which he has been delivered. "Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat: because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it" (Matthew 7:13-14). The weight of eternity is pressing upon your soul. Do not leave it to chance. Read, consider, and weigh your soul in the balance-before it is too late.
A Heart for Reformation

A Heart for Reformation

C Matthew McMahon

Lulu.com
2007
pokkari
This book follows the historical context of Josiah and his reformation in Israel to aid the Christian in examining the kind of heart that they have. What kind of heart do you have? The Bible requires a Christian's heart to beat after God's Word and God's will. It is not a book solely about "Reformed Theology", but rather, it teaches what it means to be a "reforming, covenanted Christian amidst God's people and world." It asks the question "What is true, biblical reformation?" And it answers it in dealing with each compartment of the Christian life - church, home, work and the like. Personal Reformation is the beginning of church Reformation and then consequently, world Reformation ushering in the Kingdom of Christ. C. Matthew McMahon. Ph.D., Th.D., is an American Calvinist Reformed theologian and adjunct professor at Whitefield Theological Seminary. He is the founder and chairman of A Puritan's Mind and the founder of Puritan Publications which publishes Reformed and Puritan works from the 17th century.
John Calvin's View of God's Love and the Doctrine of Reprobation
This new work explains the relationship between God's love and the reprobation of the wicked, aiding the reader to understand more simply the view of the Reformation's brightest Reformer, John Calvin (1509-1564). In this analysis of Calvin's view, McMahon explores Calvin's thoughts concerning reconciling God's love and the damnation of the reprobate. He explains Calvin's doctrine of accommodation, centering on understanding the difference between the will of God's decree and the precepts of God's word. Also analyzed is Calvin's view of God's province as Supreme Ruler over creation, Calvin's view of hardening the reprobate's heart, and his view of the Gospel call when the reprobate are called to repent and believe the Gospel. McMahon is an American Calvinist Reformed theologian and adjunct professor at Whitefield Theological Seminary. He is the founder of A Puritan's Mind and Puritan Publications which publishes Reformed and Puritan works from the 17th century.

This is the 3rd volume in the Reformed Apprentice workbook series, teaching Reformed Theology in a simple but interactive manner. It covers the Doctrine of God and the biblical teaching of the Trinity. Its main purpose is to come into a deeper relationship with the Lord Jesus Christ as he has revealed himself to the church in his Word and by his Spirit through the centuries in Reformed Theology.

It covers God's divine attributes, the Trinity, the divinity of the Son, the divinity of the Holy Spirit and the decrees of God. There is nothing like this series of interactive workbooks anywhere in the Reformed community.

Little children ought to learn all of Christ's teachings. 1/6th of everything Jesus taught about was on judgment and hell. That is a huge amount of teaching on the subject But how do we teach our children such a hard biblical idea appropriately? In this tastefully illustrated work that is completely in rhyme, the Bible's teaching about hell is outlined in a very easy to understand manner. It concerns a young boy who we find is trapped in a cage called "Big Sin" and can't escape on his own. The cage is suspended by a chain that is rusting and could break at any moment. What will our young friend do? He sees others in cages as well, some who don't escape, and some who jump to safety as their prisons doors are opened by a mysterious key. Will our young friend get out? How will he escape THE CAGE? C.

The Kingdom of Heaven is Upon You

The Kingdom of Heaven is Upon You

C Matthew McMahon

pokkari
Jesus preached, "Repent: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand," (Matthew 4:17). This is the Gospel. But what did Jesus mean by preaching in this way? Is Christ's gospel the gospel we know and love as Paul preached, and many ministers preach today, "For I determined not to know any thing among you, save Jesus Christ, and him crucified," (1 Cor. 2:2)? Is this what Jesus preached or even meant in his heralding of the good news or the kingdom of heaven? What did Jesus consider the good news, and is it the same as what Paul considered good news? Is the message of the gospel different for the Apostles than it was of Jesus?This work will cover ideas such as what does it mean that the kingdom is upon you, or for that matter, that you must repent in light of it? What did Jesus expect his listeners to do in hearing him preach this way? How is this kingdom important in light of who Christ is, and what he commissioned his ministers and preachers to preach about him? What didn't Jesus tell his disciples to preach about him going to the cross, or rising from the dead, or ascending into heaven in his exaltation? Or did he? McMahon unfolds Christ's kingdom proclamation, and how it relates to who he is as King, what he does as King, what his kingdom is like, what he considered "God's kingdom" from the Old Testament, what he taught about the kingdom in the Gospels, and what the response should be to his kingdom as a result of his preaching. Christ spoke extensively in both didactic teaching and preaching, as well as illustratively in his parables about the "kingdom of heaven" and "kingdom of God." This is not a peripheral topic of study. Christ specifically and emphatically required people to repent in light of the coming of the kingdom. Much, if not most, of his teaching in the Gospels surround kingdom proclamation. To King Jesus, the kingdom is a very important topic. It should be an important topic to all believers. Christians ought to know whether the kingdom is "within them" or not, whether they have repented in light of it, and what it means that there is such a kingdom at all.
I Am for You

I Am for You

pokkari
This volume is a spiritual journey through five important Scriptures: Jeremiah 3:1, Mark 5:25-34, Luke 16:4, 1 Samuel 17:34-35, and Ezekiel 36:9. It demonstrates the cultivation of true assurance that Christians can sincerely have as believing Christians, if they trust in the work of Jesus Christ. In these pages, the Christian will find a spiritual feast in God's love to the soul (that God is for you if you are a believer), and the soul reciprocates this to him, in service before Christ, to love him back, even into eternity. This coming of Christ to be near to his redeemed people is, in its highest and transcendent nature, seen in the incarnation of the Son of God. In this drawing near to them, he shows, by action, that he is God with us. And, he testifies that he is God for us, as Ezekiel, 36:9 says, "For, behold, I am for you, and I will turn unto you, and ye shall be tilled and sown." God draws near to his people in Christ, to turn to them, to be for them, to till them and sow into them the glorious Kingdom of God. "What shall we say then to these things?" In the Father's ordination of the work of redemption through Christ, even from before the foundation of the world, we find that the saint's infirmities cannot wholly remove Christ's love for them in their present weaknesses and fallen state, if they are truly redeemed. He does this as the great Shepherd of the sheep, the Shepherd of his people, whom he loved before the foundation of the world. Christ is the Spiritual David who was planned before the beginning of time to work and merit salvation in rescuing his lambs from the mouth of the lion and the paw of the bear. Sinners find that drawing near is to believe in him by faith, to draw great virtue from him in the Spirit. They come to understand that the way to receive the virtue of Jesus Christ is by touching him in faith, and in this they are resolved to follow Christ the King without reservation casting themselves on his infinite mercy in everything.
A Watchman Over Christ's Church

A Watchman Over Christ's Church

pokkari
The watchman's life is a life of consecration; a life on the wall dividing the world and church, to watch and take heed, to sound the alarm, and bring God's message to his people boldly, faithfully and plainly. The watchman acts in the name of another, that is, of God, who has called him to the task of watching which includes praying (power) and preaching (guidance and direction). He is commissioned by God with supernatural gifts (given by the effectual work of the Spirit on behalf of Christ) which allows him to discern, speak and work in the ministry by the word God has given him to preach. He officiates in that office as one commissioned of God on behalf of God's people. He is not sent of his own accord, but sent of God to minister the words of Christ to his beloved church. In this work on the watchman of Ezekiel 33, McMahon explains the nature of the watchman, the work of the watchman, the watched of the watchman and the faithful exercise of his duty on behalf of Jesus Christ, who has commissioned him to serve his sheep as a faithful steward of the glory of Gospel.
Save Me

Save Me

If you have ever doubted your salvation as a Christian, this psalm is for you. Collectively, the psalms are like a little bible in and of themselves. Independently, Psalm 119 is like a little bible in and of itself. It contains in it a thesis that God's word is to be preeminent in the believer's life, and it houses in it everything that a growing Christian would need to draw closer to Jesus Christ if they would but take time to consider it, to meditate on it, even in the midst of the worst afflictions. I have chosen the section of verses 89-96 because they house the verse, "I am thine, save me; for I have sought thy precepts." (Psa. 119:94). This little phrase, "save me," was the springboard in which this study began; to understand how being saved occurs, and what the psalmist meant by it. This psalm was pivotal in the great reformer's life, Martin Luther, where he relied heavily on this little phrase "save me" during his initial ministry. As with Luther, so with us, my hope is that you will be encouraged to pray along the same lines as the psalmist did, in desiring God to save you. You may think, "I'm already saved. I'm a blood bought believer in Jesus Christ " That's excellent But know, Scripture provides saved and transformed believers with the biblical truth that 1) they were saved, that 2) they are being saved, and that 3) one day they will be saved. "Savedness" has a past connotation, a present reality, and a future hope, which all work together for the good of the believer; and all this on account of the work and merit of Jesus Christ. In this, there is great comfort to be mined out of these verses for the believer to understand how God accomplishes this "saving" through Jesus Christ, and in light of this section and teaching of Psalm 119. It houses in it comfort, hope, help, and importantly, the need to have a true assurance in one's eternal position before God.

God delights in the infinite purity of his holiness. Consequently, he desires his people to delight in those things which he delights in. A holy disposition relishes and delights in holiness. God, being infinite in his delight, has an infinite desire and will to experience infinite happiness and joy and he does so by delighting in his own holiness. His people, in this, are to love what he loves. God supplies his people with word-pictures that are often used in similitude or type. Jesus Christ is typified by things like the ark, the temple, the mercy seat, etc. One of the most disregarded types found in Scripture is set in the greatest song of all time, inspired by the Spirit, which speaks directly to the sweetness, delight and sustenance of that which Christ ministers in his covenant to the believing soul - the picture of an Apple Tree among the trees of the forest (Song 2:3). God desires them to find special delight and singular pleasure in this tree of trees; to have a love and liking to it in such a way that it is not only pleasant to their sight, but pleasing to their taste. In this tree they are to find comfort, sustenance and refreshment. Song 2:3 supplies God's people with a grand picture of Jesus Christ to be seen as an Apple Tree among the trees of the woods. What? Is this word-picture not so grand in your eyes? Have you not thought about the nature of the Apple Tree for your comfort, sustenance and refreshment in furthering your walk in holiness? Have you not considered him as an Apple Tree, sweet to the taste, comforting from the scorching sun of wickedness, an ever present help to the starving soul for that which is pleasant? Well, then, this study is for you.

"Practical Observations on the Lord's Supper" offers an in-depth exploration into the significant spiritual act of participating in the Lord's Supper, going beyond mere ritual to reveal a deep, spiritual communion with Christ. This book does not engage in theological debates or critique differing perspectives; instead, it focuses on the experiential aspects of the Supper, emphasizing the personal and communal relationship with Christ that is nurtured through this sacred practice. McMahon explores the essence of the Lord's Supper, presenting it as more than just a ceremonial partaking of bread and wine; more than a memorial. It is depicted as an intimate dialogue with Christ, a moment of joyful and comforting communion that has the potential to elevate the believer's spiritual life. McMahon explains the Apostle Paul's concept of "worthy participation," drawing from 1 Corinthians 11, to highlight how such engagement with the Supper can lead to a spiritual exchange of divine grace and blessings. Through participation in the Lord's Supper, believers are invited to a deeper understanding and connection with Christ. It is an occasion for Christ to impart His spiritual grace, fostering the believer's sanctification and growth in faith. The Supper is portrayed as a pivotal expression of fellowship with Christ, allowing believers to partake in His benefits and merits and by faith, grow in their walk before him. This work encourages readers to reflect on their personal approach to the Lord's Supper, urging them to seek a more meaningful and enriching experience that strengthens their bond with Christ. It is a call to recognize the Supper as a vital expression of spiritual fellowship, a sacred sign of unity with Christ that demands reverence and thoughtful engagement. "Practical Observations on the Lord's Supper" is an essential read for anyone seeking to deepen their understanding of this central Christian sacrament and to enhance their spiritual journey through a more purposeful and fulfilling participation in the Lord's Supper.
