Psalm 34:6-7 – A Truthful Optimism

Throughout this series I have been demonstrating that the first third of this Psalm is about simple truths David is clinging to in his time of trouble. We’ve also been learning that David is using the literary device of couplets to write this section, speaking first about himself and then about his audience. Last week […]

God’s Unmatchable Holiness – Part 3

How to Cut Up Your Bible

It was cold and blustery as the sun was setting. Ice had begun to form along the empty streets outside and Jehudi’s teeth chattered as he scurried back to the house having completed his official government business. The contraband he had been dispatched to obtain was tucked safely under his left arm as he opened the […]

What To Do When The Bible Becomes Tiresome

A Pastor by the name of Tom Patton recently told a story about a time he was in seminary and the school president preached a message on the importance of God’s Word from Psalm 19. During the message he spoke about a very large, sixteenth century Bible that he had seen and held. When he […]

How to Use a “For” Clause: 1 Timothy 2:12 and Egalitarianism

Did Paul mean in 1 Timothy 2:12 that he is really prohibiting women from teaching or exercising authority over men on a permanent basis? Let’s do some grammar work. 12 I do not allow a woman to teach or to have authority over a man; instead, she is to remain quiet. 13 For Adam was […]

Pastors, Plagues, and Playing Games

In my GBTS class on ecclesiology the other night, Dr. Jeffrey Johnson told us the story of John Calvin’s pastoral ministry in Geneva during the plague of 1542. I was able to check out Harry Reeder’s work in John Calvin: A Heart for Devotion Doctrine & Theology (edited by Burk Parsons) to learn a little more. […]
