The Need for Humility When Defending the Faith (Groothuis)

2+ week, 1+ day ago   (635+ words) There are different times in our Christian life when we need to give a reason for the hope we have in Christ (1 Pet. 3:15). This is sometimes called apologetics – defending the Christian faith. We should defend the faith with gentleness and…...

The Cross and Love (Kuyper)

1+ mon, 1+ week ago   (388+ words) It’s not a secret that the greatest act of love in history happened on the cross. Out of love, Christ gave up his life to save his enemies from eternal punishment for their crimes (1 John 3:16, 4:9-10, etc.). Christians confess with Paul…...

The True Logic of Religion: Micah 7:18-20

1+ mon, 3+ week ago   (238+ words) After studying Micah 7:18-20 for the past week, it has become one of my favorite texts in Scripture. Here it is: Who is a God like you, who pardons sin and forgives the transgression of the remnant of his inheritance? You…...

God’s Kind Disposition: His “Benevolent and Beneficent Propensity toward His Creatures”

1+ mon, 3+ week ago   (421+ words) Some people think of God as an angry being in the sky. They believe he is full of wrath and prone to anger and rage. There are Christians today who constantly emphasize God’s wrath against sin and how he will…...

Common Grace and Reformed Theology

1+ mon, 4+ week ago   (237+ words) You may have heard the term “common grace.” This term has been used positively in the history of Reformed theology. It means that God shows undeserved kindness even to unbelievers. He is good to all; he makes the sun shine…...

What Does it Mean to “Wait on the Lord” – A Helpful Biblical Answer

2+ mon, 2+ week ago   (877+ words) I’ve always appreciated the Dictionary of Biblical Imagery. I use it nearly every week in my Bible studies and sermon preparation. I highly recommend it! This week I’m studying the biblical theme of “waiting on the Lord” (e.g., Ps....

2+ mon, 2+ week ago   (377+ words) In Abraham Kuyper’s meditation on Psalm 22:1-8, you will find some wonderful comments on the suffering of Christ. Kuyper notes that Jesus’ suffering was clearly prophesied in the Old Testament long before Jesus suffered and died on the cross. In fact,…...

A Brief Note on God’s Mercy and Justice (Turretin)

3+ mon, 2+ day ago   (267+ words) God’s mercy and justice are not opposed to one another. He is merciful and just. His justice does not negate his mercy, nor does his mercy contradict his justice. God is both good and fair (Ps. 25:8). But, as Francis Turretin…...

“Affliction Is A Treasure”

3+ mon, 4+ day ago   (425+ words) The Bible teaches that suffering is inevitable for the Christian. As we follow Christ, we face various trials, heartaches, and afflictions. This present age will never be anything even close to a utopia. Jesus told his followers that they would…...
