 click for details | | RILLS FROM THE FOUNTAIN OF LIFE: Good Words from God's Word for the Young Richard Newton This was the very first book written by the man who went on to become known as "The Prince of Preachers to Children." Newton explains the origin of the book in the Preface: "The following sermons have been published at the request of the teachers of the Sunday-schools of St. Peter's Church in Philadelphia. For the last two years, there has been a service for the children of this congregation, on the afternoon of the first Sunday of the month. On these occasions, the children occupy the body of the church. The usual service is performed, and a sermon preached, designed especially for the benefit of the children. It is called, 'THE CHILDREN'S CHURCH.'" For more than 30 years Newton conducted CHILDREN'S CHURCH each month in which he preached a full length sermon prepared for the young lambs of his flock. Thousands upon thousands heard these masterful addresses, and the Lord used these messages mightily and raised up an army of faithful servants who went into pastoral ministry, the mission field, and numerous other places where the name of Christ is honored. THESE MESSAGES ARE BOTH TIMELESS AND TIMELY. The subjects include: THE PLEASANT WAY: on Proverbs 3:7 THE SPIDER'S EXAMPLE: on Proverbs 30:28 THE MARKS OF A BEN-ONI: on Genesis 35:18 THE CROOKED THINGS STRAIGHTENED: on Ecclesiastes 1:15 THE GREAT MAN IN GOD'S SIGHT: on Luke 1:15 THE LILY'S LESSONS: on Matthew 6:28 THE GIFT FOR GOD: on Proverbs 23:26 THE WONDERFUL LAMP: on Psalm 119:105 THE CHILD'S FORTUNE TOLD: on Proverbs 20:11 THE MILLENNIAL MENAGERIE: on Isaiah 11:6 THE BEST MERCHANDISE: on Proverbs 3:14 THE LESSONS JESUS TEACHES: on Matthew 11:29 "Every page is adapted to rivet attention, both by freshness of its matter, and the simple, yet graphic character of the illustrative anecdotes.

 click for details | | THE GIANTS AND HOW TO FIGHT THEM: Lessons for Children of All Ages Richard Newton "There are giants in the earth in these days; and God expects us all to engage in the work of trying to fight them. When I speak of giants now, I do not mean physical giants, but moral giants. I do not mean men with huge bodies, four or five times larger than common-sized men; but I mean great sins of different kinds, which may well be called giants. I want now to speak about five giants that we should all unite trying to fight against. One of these is a good way off from us; but the rest are very near us. Listen to me while I tell you who these giants are, and the way in which we must try to fight them." I. The first giant I am to speak of is the GIANT HEATHENISM. This giant doesn't live here. He is found in countries where the Gospel is not known. His castles may be seen in Africa, and in India, in China, and in the islands of the sea. He is a huge giant. This giant is very strong, and very cruel. Well, what are we to do to this giant? Why, we must fight him, as David did Goliath. The Bible is the brook to which we must go. The truths which it contains are the stones that we must use. II. The second giant I would speak of is the GIANT SELFISHNESS. The giant selfishness never sees, or hears, or does anything for anyone but himself if you find that you are getting to think more of yourself than of others, then be sure the giant is after you. We must fight this giant by self-denial. III. The third giant I want to speak about is the GIANT COVETOUSNESS. This giant is very large in size, and very strong in limb; but he has the tiniest tittle bit of a heart you ever saw, might put it in a nutshell. The only wonder is how so huge a frame can be supported by so little a heart. But this is not all, for little as his heart is, it is hard as stone. He is ashamed of his name, and won't answer to it. He pretends that his right name is — frugality. But this is a great story. Frugality is a very different person. He is a good, true, honest fellow If you ask, How are you to fight him? I answer, by learning to give. IV. The fourth giant of which I will speak is the GIANT ILL-TEMPER. But how are we to fight against, this giant? I answer, By trying to be like Jesus. We always think of Him as — the "gentle Jesus, meek and mild." Do you suppose that this giant ever got a single link of his chain on Jesus? No. V. The last giant I wish to speak about is the GIANT INTEMPERANCE. He is a very ugly-looking fellow When he is in a good humor, and feels jolly, he puts on a silly face, and looks very foolish. But when he gets in a passion he is awful looking, and it makes one shudder to see him. In addition to these Five Giants Dr. Newton also has Five addresses on the following: THE GOOD SOLDIERS: on 2 Timothy 2:3 THE CONQUEROR'S JEWEL: on Exodus 28:19 THE WONDERFUL EYES: on Proverbs 15:3 ACKNOWLEDGING GOD: on Proverbs 3:6 THE CURE FOR CARE: on Genesis 22:14 rn3 c50 dtdm ovt 10l BRAND NEW TITLE - Nearly 50% Off SGCB Price: $9.95 (list price $18.00)Order with RILLS FROM THE FOUNTAIN OF LIFE & THE KING IN HIS BEAUTY SGCB Price: $29.00 (list price $60.00)OVER 50% OFF THIS NEW TRILOGY OF NEWTON TITLES ORDER ALL 18 RICHARD NEWTON TITLES SGCB Price: $198.00 (list price $420.00)SAVE OVER $200 WHEN ORDERING OUR COMPLETE SET |

NOW AVAILABLE. "We sometimes see a bright jewel which has many smooth polished sides or surfaces. It is pleasant to take up such a jewel; turn it carefully over; look at its many surfaces, one after another, and notice the different views they present of the beauty shining out from that precious stone. Now, the character and work of the Lord Jesus Christ, our Blessed Savior, may well be compared to such a jewel. There are many sides to this jewel. And there is a wonderful variety in the rays of light and loveliness, that shine out from these different sides. No two of them are exactly alike. It is an interesting and profitable study to examine this jewel carefully, and see the amazing brightness and beauty that are hid in it, and are all the time shining out from it. The aim of the present volume is to assist the young in doing this. Their attention is here called to a few of the shining surfaces of this great Jewel. Jesus, in the riches of His grace and the wonders of His love, is the one theme of these sermons. If the reading of them shall help any of His young friends, in their efforts to know Jesus more, to love and serve Him better, and, in so doing, to be happier and more useful, the writer will feel abundantly rewarded for his labor." - from the Author's Preface 1.

 click for details | | HEROES OF THE REFORMATION: Life-Changing Lessons for the Young Richard Newton William G. Blaikie wrote the following words about the author of this book on Heroes of the Reformation, "In preaching to the young, Dr. Newton has attained the first rank in this department of work. The American mind has such a proclivity to sharp, terse forms of expression, clever analogies and illustrations, keen analysis of feelings, vivid description and warm coloring, that we do not wonder tghat it should excel in addresses to which such qualities contribute so largely." C.H. Spurgeon said of this volume: "The records of the Reformation translated into fascinating language for young people, by one who knows how to enthrall youthful ears and hearts. A book which should be read by every boy and girl throughout the empire." This volume includes brief but very informative sketches on the likes of Wycliffe, Huss, Savonarola, Luther, Melancthon, Tyndale, Edward the Sixth, John Fox, Latimer and Ridley, Cranmer, Knox, Zwingli, Calvin, Farel, Alasco, Gustaus Adolphus and several others. In the words of the author, "There is nothing more helpful to us, in seeking to serve God, than to try and learn the practical lessons which we find illustrated in the lives of the good and holy men, who have been a blessing to the church and to the world through their faithful labors. The 'Heroes of the Reformation' belong to this class, and these sketches of their noble lives are sent forth in the earnest hope that through God's blessing they may prove useful to the young who are trying to serve him."

 click for details | | BIBLE MODELS: The Shining Lights of Scripture Applied to Children Richard Newton "Our dear Father in heaven has filled His blessed book - the Bible - with interesting histories of the lives and characters of great and good men who have been His servants and followers from the beginning of the world; so that we, who live in these later times, may learn of their thoughts and actions and be made better by them. The Apostle James shows us the use God intends we shall make of these histories, when he says: 'Take, my brethren, the prophets for an example.' This means we should study the lives of the holy men of whom we read in the Bible, until we get the model points of their character impressed upon our minds; and then by the grace of God we may be able to bring these virtues forth again in our own hearts and lives. "The author of this book has endeavored to place before young readers, in a clear and forcible manner, the admirable traits of character possessed by some of the great men of the Bible. The advantages to be gained by following these BIBLE MODELS are plainly shown by many interesting stories drawn from actual life. It is hoped that not only young, but older persons also will find pleasure as well as profit in the pages of this volume; and that, perhaps, as they become familiar with the lofty examples held up to their gaze, their hearts will go out in earnest prayer that 'God may give them grace to follow His blessed saints in all virtuous and godly living, so they may come to the unspeakable joys which he has prepared for those who unfeignedly love Him.'" - from the Author's Preface ABEL, THE MODEL SPEAKER - Hebrews 11:4 ENOCH, THE MODEL WALKER - Genesis 5:22 NOAH, THE MODEL WORKER - Genesis 6:22 JOB, THE MODEL OF PIETY - Job 1:1 ABRAHAM, THE MODEL OF FAITH - Romans 4:3 JOSEPH, THE MODEL REALIZER OF GOD'S PRESENCE - Genesis 39:9 MOSES, THE MODEL OF FAITHFULNESS - Hebrews 3:2 SAMUEL, THE MODEL OF EARLY PIETY - 1 Samuel 3:10 DAVID, THE MODEL OF PRAISE - Psalm 119:164 DAVID, THE MODEL USER OF GOD'S WORD - Psalm 119:97 JONATHAN, THE MODEL FRIEND - 2 Samuel 1:26 ELIJAH, THE MODEL REFORMER - 1 Kings 17:1 ELISHA, THE MODEL HELPER - 2 Kings 13:14 EBED-MELECH, THE MODEL OF KINDNESS - Jeremiah 38:8 NEHEMIAH, THE MODEL MAN OF BUSINESS - Nehemiah 6:3 DANIEL, THE MODEL OF DECISION - Daniel 10:11 GOD, THE MODEL GIVER - Acts 17:25 JOHN THE BAPTIST, THE MODEL OF GREATNESS - Luke 1:15 THE APOSTLE PAUL, THE MODEL OF EARNESTNESS - Philippians 3:14 JESUS, THE MODEL OF PERFECTION - Hebrews 5:9 "This book, having been written by such a distinguished author, containing his best thoughts and most interesting experiences, could hardly fail to be a valuable and meritorious work." -This beautiful volume is enhanced by the Author's Preface being in the very handwrioting of the beloved Dr. Newton.

 click for details | | LEAVES FROM THE TREE OF LIFE: Sermons for Children on the Truths about Jesus that Heal the Soul Richard Newton "This book has much to say about healing. And to souls diseased by sin, as ours are, this is a matter of the greatest importance. We see its importance when we remember that one of the sweet names by which our blessed Savior is spoken of in the Old Testament is JEHOVAH-ROPHI, or 'The Lord who healeth.' The chief means that He makes use of in healing souls is the truth about Jesus, of which the Bible tells us. 'He sent His word, and healed them,' says David. It is more than 20 years ago since the writer of this book first engaged in the work of preaching to children, and making books of sermons. He was first led to do this by thinking on the words of Jesus to Peter, 'Lovest Thou me? Feed my lambs.' This is the twelfth volume he has been permitted to publish. This new volume is now sent forth as an expression of the writer's cordial love to the lambs of Jesus everywhere." - from the Author's Preface Subjects covered are as follows: THE BIBLE COMPARED TO A TREE OF LIFE - Revelation 22:2 THE LESSON OF OBEDIENCE - Luke 2:51 THE LEAF FOR CURING LYING - Psalm 120:2 THE LEAF FOR CURING COVETOUSNESS - Proverbs 3:9,10 THE LESSON OF PATIENCE - James 1:4 THE LEAF FOR HEALING IDLENESS - Ecclesiastes 9:10 THE LEAF FOR CURING PRIDE - James 4:6 THE LEAF FOR HEALING THE EVIL CONSCIENCE - Hebrews 10:22 THE LEAF FOR CURING QUARRELS - Matthew 5:9 THE LESSON OF FAITHFULNESS - Revelation 2:10 PEBBLES & LEAVES ONE DOZEN LATEST SGCB BEST SELLER SALE c50 NOW AVAILABLE - Nearly 50% Off SGCB Price: $9.95 (list price $18.00)Order with PEBBLES FROM THE BROOK SGCB Price: $21.50 (list price $43.00)50% DISCOUNT WHEN ORDERED TOGETHER Order COMPLETE EIGHTEEN Newton Titles SGCB Price: $198.00 (list price $420.00)NEARLY 55% DISCOUNT - SAVE MORE THAN $200.00 |
