It’s finally a weekend, praise the Lord. Life should never be taken for granted, for death comes for us all, the question is always when. Only God knows.
My Favorite Read…today:
Real Calvinists Pray
The tagline in the email I received from 9Marks with this article read, “Prayerless Calvinists are functional hyper-Calvinists.” You know what? They aren’t wrong. Calvinists pray!
The Stages of Spiritual Maturity: Spiritual Children
“We all begin the Christian life as spiritual children, as John notes in verses 12 and 13. Spiritual children are typically those who are newly converted. This phrase has no reference to your physical age. If you were converted at 5 or 50 years old, then you were a spiritual child at that point.”
Katie McCoy talks about Gender Dysphoria
Disclaimer: I don’t know much (enough) about gender dysphoria, nor have I heard of Katie McCoy before reading this article. I learned some from reading this article, and I count that as a win. Check it out and let me know what you think.
What Is Conversion?
“Conversion is a U-turn in a person’s life. It is turning with one’s whole person away from sin and to Christ for salvation. From idol worship to God worship. From self-justification to Christ’s justification. From self-rule to God’s rule.”
The Inadequacy of Man
“With all the training in the world, without the LORD our work will be inadequate, fruitless, and in vain. BUT praise be to God that His indwelling Spirit is within each one of us, as we have trusted in Him. Praise God that no matter what corner of the world we find ourselves in the God who made the heavens and the earth is personally within us.”
