  1. Guillame Bucanus, French-Swiss Calvinist, considers relation between faith and chairty.

    Faith is an act of receiving, while Charity is an act of giving and bestowing. Faith makes us the sons of God. Charity “tries” us, as to whether we be the sons of God.

    In contrast, John Piper is saying that Jesus will ask how much bible reading you’ve done.

    How can you demonstrate that you are a son of God?

  4. Elijah Porter Barrows, Presbyterian minister, discusses slavery. One does not have to prove that every slaver was driven by individual animosity all day long. Revolting cruelty is the natural product of the system.

    I had FB friends who were calling it a literacy program. Some call it a jobs program. Revolting?

    How can you take pains to notice cruelty?

  7. @queerjungfrau In vielen Bibelübersetzungen wurde der ursprüngliche griechische Begriff #Ekklesia falsch als Kirche übersetzt.
    Ekklesia bedeutet ursprünglich die Herausgerufene und bezieht sich auf eine Versammlung von Gläubigen. Der Begriff Gemeinde ist da wohl eher zutreffend.
    Deshalb sage ich auch:
    Geh nicht zur Gemeinde, sondern sei die Gemeinde.
  8. Samuel Willard, a Boston Puritan who opposed the Salem Witch Trials, speaks to Christian nationalism: to honor those who’ve gone before, imitate their meekness and respect of the poor.

    Today, some say their bad rep is their suffering for Christ’s sake, and blame the devil for their inability to convert the world.

    How can you practice these virtues?

  14. A dozen house-church quotes from a book called ONE

    God’s eternal purpose is for humankind to enjoy such a wonderful and mysterious ONEness together, in Him, as the uniting bond of peace.

  15. 236. The Hallmark of the New

    Mike Parsons with Jeremy Westcott What is the ‘new wine’? In this series of posts we are looking at new wine and new wineskins. Last time we saw how the new wineskin is each one of us, both individually and coming together as a new order ekklesia, but what is this new wine? What does it represent? Here is some of what I have seen (and if you will engage with God for yourself, I am sure you will see some of this and more besides): New governmental mandates and new government […]
