Before time, God determined to save a people. The Son agreed that he would come, that he would take on flesh, that he would bear the sins of his people, that he would give his body to be tortured and crucified for them. The gift of the kingdom of heaven is free for the recipients, but... Continue Reading

We are often far too shortsighted when it comes to doing battle against the issues we see in our children. Typically, parents try everything in their own power to address the behaviors they see. This might look like wanting to talk sense into their child, giving them articles or books to read, rebuking or disciplining them, and... Continue Reading

My single point is that we need to distinguish law. Since obeying the law of God without distinction can mean walking out of step with the truth of Gospel (Gal 2:14). So to say “obey the law of God” without distinguishing law might make us like Cephas before Paul. Everyone should obey the law of God!... Continue Reading

Already we refuse God’s right to make a man a man, and not a woman, or his right to lay down any moral imperative for people to unite themselves to someone of the opposite gender. We refuse to distinguish between a human child growing in the womb and a cancer growing in the brain. How... Continue Reading

It is good to pray against all sin, but crucial to labor in prayer against that specific sin. It is wise to tell our friends about our weaknesses, but wiser still to confide in... Continue Reading

All that to say, if the Son’s generation is eternal, so also it must be immutable. Where there is a succession of moments (time), change will follow; indeed, it must. But in eternity, there is no successiveness and therefore no mutation in God. The Father begets His Son not as a new moment in time... Continue Reading

Particularly interesting is Ferguson’s analysis of how information is suppressed, especially with regard to how Taiwan confronted both the pandemic and the infodemic. When bombarded by Chinese propaganda, the Taiwanese produced their own viral content ruthlessly mocking it. They managed to avoid lockdowns by contact tracing, rapid testing, and empowering the public to gather and... Continue Reading

God works through a remnant. There are innumerable professing Christians in the world, but the tares are rampant within that body. However, there is the wheat within. This remnant is of priceless value to God’s purposes. We must ask ourselves if we are part of this remnant who lives for God’s glory alone in all... Continue Reading

When we say, “In Jesus’ name,” we pray in the name of the one who has been exalted to the highest place, the one who has had bestowed upon him the name that is above every name, the one before whom all of heaven and earth should bow and someday will bow. He is the... Continue Reading

Maybe the next time you sit down to a rich juicy steak, or feel the sharp tang of a crunchy red pepper burst on your tongue, or the salty enticement of fresh oysters plucked from the rocks, you might offer a quiet prayer for my little girl. But more importantly, remember again the invitation of... Continue Reading
