Witnesses—Old and New
We must testify of that which we have heard, seen, looked upon, and touched with our hands.
We can’t bear witness to his birth, or his life, or his death and resurrection. We weren’t there when he turned water into wine or when he raised the dead back to life. But if we have been saved by his work, then we must go and tell it on the mountains. We must tell... Continue Reading
Reading Scripture
What is needed to be a Christian is to be hearers of Jesus.
Two or three words sum this up – certainty, immediacy, and energy. For Calvin it is as if the reader takes in the air of Scripture, of prophets and apostles, and especially of the incarnate Son of God, by the energy of the Holy Spirit, by which the truth of scripture is known with certainty. This engagement involves not... Continue Reading
Saved by Grace?
Stand and march, equipped by and clothed in Christ, as prayer warriors of the Lord, who seek opportunities to preach.
By the mercies of God, and the infinite spring of crucified love, let me stir you up to sing, shout, speak as you delight in humbling grace – you owe nothing to yourself but owe everything to your Lord. Don’t boast against brother. Submit to your Savior. Be good, well-connected, properly-functioning, members of His body,... Continue Reading
3 Simple Reasons We Believe Misinformation
The digital world is secondary to the physical world.
As I have worked to live a more offline life, the most effective tool for me has been setting time limits for my favorite apps and limiting the times of day I can engage with these apps. When I restrict the duration and times of day I engage with content on the internet, I spend... Continue Reading
Live Out Your Calling Today
Don’t try to figure out God’s will for your whole life. Live faithful today.
If God explained to you every single plan He had for your life, do you really think your life would be better? I think God is merciful to allow us to take one day at a time. Your calling is to die to self daily and subject each day’s tasks to the Lordship of Christ. That is... Continue Reading
The Pandemic of Despair: Young Adult Deaths Highlight the Need for Hope
Who else can address this culture-wide pandemic of despair but the Church?
The real culprit here is a worldview described by the prophet Isaiah centuries ago, one which urges us to spend money on that which is not bread and to work for what cannot satisfy. Today, we are urged to spend our resources and seek fulfilment in stuff, sex, state, and self. The countless Americans turning to anesthetics to... Continue Reading
What Happened To You? The Radicalization of the American Elite Against Liberalism
What happened to me? You know what I want to know: What on earth has happened to you?
Take a big step back. Observe what has happened in our discourse since around 2015. Forget CRT for a moment and ask yourself: is nothing going on here but Republican propaganda and guile? Can you not see that the Republicans may be acting, but they are also reacting — reacting against something that is right... Continue Reading
Open Letter to Same-Sex Attraction Side B Christians: Resist Pride. Resist Aloneness
Isn’t it time to let go of the proclivity and propensity to be sexually attracted to others of the same sex as an identity when Christ has delivered you from that temptation and sin?
Being same-sex attracted is not akin to being racially different or gender different. Those are visible physical identities that will never change. They are also amoral identities that are morally neither good nor evil. Identifying oneself as “gay” is essentially an announcement of celebration and pride. It’s a hallmark of the LBGTQ agenda. It’s a... Continue Reading
We’re Always in Gospel School
The gospel is for believers as well. We need it everyday.
As a Christian, you should desire to become more like the one who died for you. You should not take your eyes off the gospel any day of the week. Wake up to the gospel. Talk about the gospel. Think about and read the gospel. Go to sleep pondering the gospel. Ultimately, that is the... Continue Reading
The Eschatological Household
When Christ returns, we will worship as a universal assembly of God’s elect, at the consummate Mount Zion on an eternal Sabbath.
When Christ returns, His church will be entirely purified and cleansed from all iniquity. He will make us suitable for everlasting fellowship with the triune God. When we see our Savior returning on the clouds, we will be like Him (1 Thess. 4:16–17; 1 John 3:2), being raised from the dead unto spiritual bodies (1 Cor. 15:42–49) to enjoy... Continue Reading
