Beauty

Psalm 96:6-9 The Beauty of Christ

August 8, 2020 by Michael Coughlin

Splendor and Majesty The word splendor conjures the idea of beauty and of grandeur. Our God isn’t only comely; He is altogether lovely (Song of Solomon 5:16).

Before The Throne Book Review: Exalting God’s Holiness

June 26, 2019 by George Alvarado

I’m happy and blessed to have read Allen Nelson’s book, Before the Throne. There aren’t many books about God’s holiness that accurately convey the wondrous truths of God’s manifold holiness in 12 readable, bite-sized, yet satisfying, chapters. It was a breath of fresh air which humbled me before my God, and brought worshipful reminders to […]

This series of posts (see part 1 here) fleshes out some thoughts on Enoch’s walk with […]

In verse 48, notice the repetition of the psalmist’s love for God’s commandments with is a little detail added. For what we find our delight in we will soon find ourselves giving our lives to. Is it not so with you, dear saint, that you dedicate the most time, effort, and energy toward that which you love the most? You want to know what a man loves?

Book Review — Passionate About The Passion Week (Part 2: The Odd)

If you have not read Part 1 of this review concerning The Good, please do so first. While there is much to be praised about this work historically, there are some oddities in some sections.
