Today’s thought comes from Charles Bridges fantastic devotional exposition of Psalm 119. The word translated as “walk” in so many New Testament passages (especially in the letters of Paul) is the Greek word “peripateo”. It implies walking with a purpose, and the word it represents from the Hebrew connotes not just “to walk”, but [...] August 31st, 2010
“Entertainment is the devil’s substitute for Joy, the less joy of the Lord you have the more entertainment you need.” –Leonard Ravenhill I thought that was a good quote to lead in to Dr. Russell Moore’s response to the Glenn Beck “faith rally” that took place in Washington D.C. over the weekend. I will withhold my personal [...] August 30th, 2010
The following sermon excerpt is taken from the Jonathan Edwards sermon, “Men Naturally Are God’s Enemies” Romans 5:10, “For if, when we were enemies, we were reconciled to God by the death of his Son.” … In what respects natural men are God’s enemies. 1. THEIR enmity appears in their judgments, their natural relish, their wills, affections, and practice. [...] August 26th, 2010
I AM YELLING IN ALL CAPS IN CASE YOU DIDN’T HEAR ME LAST WEEK WHEN I ANNOUNCED THIS THE FIRST TIME. We got to hear David’s first message this evening. He preached from Hosea Chapter 2 on the topic of restraining grace. An absolutely wonderful message… although if there are any “Robert’s Rules of Order” people out [...] August 26th, 2010
To love someone the way they are when you do not love the way they are. To love and pray for those who persecute you. To not return reviling with reviling, but to bless those that curse you. Those who sow in tears shall reap with shouts of joy! August 20th, 2010
I really enjoyed this book. Written almost 20 years ago, it is just as applicable to our situation today. The first half of the book runs through a brief history of our western culture to lay the groundwork and give us our bearings, and then a brief history of the church in our western culture. This [...] August 20th, 2010

I borrowed this from Ray Ortlund’s blog over at the Gospel Coalition web site. “The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge; fools despise wisdom and instruction.” Proverbs 1:7 Why the fear of the Lord? Because he is not safe, but he is good. Therefore, we long to be “fully pleasing to him” (Colossians [...] June 28th, 2010
This is a portion of a sermon delivered by John Calvin on the individual believer’s call to witness… to proclaim the gospel. People in the “reformed” or “Calvinist” camp often (and often deservedly so) take a lot of flack for their lack of evangelistic effort, although thankfully I think the tides are beginning to turn. The [...] June 26th, 2010
While I do not necessarily agree with all of Doug Wilson’s theological persuasions, I thought he made a good point here: A common rallying cry for conservative activists, including Christians, is that we need “to take America back.” Okay, sign me up. Take America back where? Generally the point is that we need to take America [...] |
