Spiritus Sanctus O Holy Spirit, As the sun is full of light, the ocean full of water, Heaven full of glory, so may my heart be full of thee. Vain are all divine purposes of love and the redemption wrought by Jesus except thou work within, regenerating by thy power, giving my eyes to see [ READ MORE ]
Why should we consider predestination? The teaching of Philip Melanchthon answers this very devoutly and faithfully: it is solely in order that you may be more certain of your salvation and may cleave more firmly to the promises of God. The first demand God makes of us is to believe that he is God, that [ READ MORE ]

Thanks to Peter for posting this great quote from the Doc: Possibly one of the most devastating things that can happen to us as Christians is that we cease to expect anything to happen. I am not sure but that this is not one of our greatest troubles today. We come to our services and [ READ MORE ]
There are three primary books(Pray With Your Eyes Open, Pratt Jr, E.M. Bounds on Prayer, and The Valley of Vision)that have changed the way I pray and listen to prayers, but none has affected me more than “The Valley of Vision.” Valley of Vision is a collection of classic puritian prayers that demonstrate a deep [ READ MORE ]

It did… sugar does that to me… So, it was my birthday this last Friday, and my wife surprised me with the most amazing cake I have ever seen. I thought this cake was timely considering we are celebrating Calvin’s 500th birthday this year (and it was in Latin, even better)[ READ MORE ]

I’ve been in the book of Hebrews lately working through what people call the “warning passages.” Commentators vary a little on how many there are, but the main ones are: 2:1-4; 3:6, [ READ MORE ]
This is a great resource for all. JT writes: Andy Naselli, Ben Peays, and Ryan James have performed a tremendous service to the church: they have uploaded to The Gospel Coalition website 443 MP3s of D. A. Carson’s teaching. Many of these were previously available only for a price; others have never been available online. [ READ MORE ]
Anyone who reads this blog knows that we take a hollistic approach to Youth Ministry at the church that I work at, but many don’t know why. Well, obviously we do so because we find it to be biblical, but it is good to step back and take a look at the different approaches to [ READ MORE ]
Danny has some great thoughs on Calvin’s Institutes (I.ii.2): This [pious] mind restrains itself from sinning, not out of dread of punishment alone; but, because it loves and reveres God as Father, it worships and adores him as Lord. Even if there were no hell, it would still shudder at offending him alone (Institutes I.ii.2) [ READ MORE ]
