H.J. Vine ( - )

Read freely text sermons and articles by the speaker H.J. Vine in text and pdf format. H.J. Vine was involved in the early Plymouth Brethren movement. The Plymouth Brethren are a conservative, low church, nonconformist, Evangelical Christian movement whose history can be traced to Dublin, Ireland in the late 1820s, originating from Anglicanism.

Among other beliefs, the group emphasizes sola scriptura, the belief that the Bible is the supreme authority for church doctrine and practice over and above "the [mere] tradition of men" (Mark 7:8). Brethren generally see themselves, not as a denomination, but as a network (or even as a collection of overlapping networks) of like-minded independent churches.

Tell My Brethren
      John 20:15, 17 “She supposing Him to be the gardener.” It was the mistake of one who loved the Lord with an ardent affection. There was no doubt that Mary was deeply attached to Jesus, and coming at early morn to the tomb in which He had lain and f ... read more

Tell Out the Saviour’s Fame!
       Tell out the Saviour’s fame! Spread wide His wondrous Name! Let every creature hear the Word: That all, who now believe, Eternal life receive Through Jesus Christ, the risen Lord. Come, all ye sinners, hear! Cast off your guilt ... read more

That Worthy Name

      Ephesians 3:10 A Study as to the teaching of the precious stones mentioned in the Scriptures, Exodus 28; Ezekiel 28 and Revelation 21. That God should call such as we are, and save us by His grace, is a cause for eternal thanksgiving and praise! We ... read more

      Luke 9:20; John 1:41; Ephesians 1:15-23, 3:17; Romans 9:4 You will have gathered from the Scriptures I have read that our subject is to be “The Christ of God.” We must distinguish His title as “The Christ” from other titles, such as “Lord.” ... read more

The Ear
      God is very jealous as to how we use our ears. Satan gained entrance to the citadel of man’s soul through the ear of Eve. We all know the man-degrading and God-dishonouring results of that. Those who are saved by grace and sealed by the Spirit, ar ... read more

The Eternal Love of God
      “Can you fix the time when God began to love you?” “No. I do not see how anyone could do that, for His love is eternal.” “Can you fix the time when the love wherewith God loves you will end?” “No. It will never cease. It cannot have ... read more

The Faithful Witness
      His Words (John), Walk (Luke), Works (Mark), And Ways (Matthew) There have been, and there are, many faithful witnesses, but only one could be designated without qualification “The faithful Witness”. In Revelation 1:5 our Lord Jesus Christ is thus ... read more

The Father’s Name
      Descending in a cloud the Lord proclaimed to Moses the name of JEHOVAH; and somewhat of the wealth of that name is found in Exodus 4:5-7; also the value of it in the experience of others in a multitude of Scriptures which follow (Ps. 86:15; Jon. 4:2, etc. ... read more

The Father’s Name for Preservation

The Father’s Name in Manifestation
      The Father’s Name has been manifested by His Son in the world—manifested in pure and sovereign grace. Of old He was revealed as the Creator, as the Almighty, or as the All-sufficient One, and as Jehovah; but by the Son the ineffable Name of Father has ... read more

The Fight of Faith
      Some time ago a strange-looking preacher was seen and heard in a city market place. He stood on the Spot where the glad Gospel of God’s Son had won many a triumph, and taken many a trophy from the slavery of sin and Satan—trophies that still tell by l ... read more

The Five Unfoldings
      The Holy Spirit gives us in the Gospels a complete fourfold picture of our Lord Jesus Christ; but He adds, through Luke, a further disclosure of Him, giving us a most necessary and wonderful complement to what is termed “The former treatise” (Acts 1:1 ... read more

The Gift of the Spirit
      Answer to Correspondence—Why was the gift of the Holy Spirit made so prominent in the early preaching? The question raised is an important one. Prominence was necessarily given to the gift of the Spirit at the beginning, for that had been the subject ... read more

The Head of the Body, the Assembly” (1)
      Colossians 1:18 There is much laudation of the church and its activities in Christendom, but where is heard the praise of its Head? Many voices and pens proclaim the worth and works of the churches, but where is to be discovered the Holy Spirit’s gra ... read more

The Head of the Body, the Assembly” (2)
      What can be more important today, for those who truly belong to the church—to the assembly which is Christ’s body, than the right understanding of their relationship to the One who is Head of that assembly? For this, the place that our Lord Jesus Chri ... read more

The Highway for the Saints of God
      “As ye have therefore received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk ye in Him” (Colossians 2:6). Prayer and the Word of God go together; we cannot dispense with either if we are to grow in the truth. As we read the Word prayerfully, the Spirit of God wil ... read more

The Holy Spirit’s Witness and God’s Children
      We have previously seen that the right to take the place of the children of God has been given to us by THE SON. To those who are born of God and have believed on His Name, He has given this right. THE HOLY SPIRIT too bears witness that this same relation ... read more

The Kingdom and the Returning King
      Notes of an address in Edinburgh on Daniel 7:13-14; Matthew 13:36-52; 16:28; 17:1-8 It may be well to commence with taking a wide view of the truths that belong to the faith of our Lord Jesus Christ and particularly of the kingdom as presented in Matth ... read more

The Liberty of Grace
      “No longer I . . . but sin” (Romans 7:17-20). What a great relief it is, and what a lift it gives us when we realize that we are the subjects of the grace of God, that we are “justified freely by His grace”—saved by it—and freed consequentl ... read more

The Lord’s Supper
      The supper of remembrance was instituted by the Lord, that His own might have a very definite way of remembering Himself together during the time of His rejection, and of announcing His death until He returns. The special instruction in regard to it, g ... read more

The Mighty Men of David
      David was the anointed of God, and the throne of Israel was his; but it was during the time of his rejection that the sterling qualities of his mighty men were tested and proven in hardship and warfare. So it is today; our Lord Jesus Christ, the Anointed ... read more

The Mystery of God’s Will

The One Foundation
      Notes of an address given in Edinburgh in April, 1921 It was by the apostle to the Gentiles the Spirit of God said, “Other Foundation can no man lay than that is laid, which is Jesus Christ.” In these days, therefore, when every fundamental truth i ... read more

The One whom God Delights to Honour

The Overcomer’s Riches, Reward and Rest
      Earnest religionists, in their endeavours to flee from the flagrant corruptions of the world, have often fallen into worse forms of lust and pride by entering monasteries and nunneries. The true believer in the Son of God, on the other hand, is to be “i ... read more

The Prophet Jeremiah - Part 2
