It’s been one year since I had the joy of releasing ten of my tunes on the “All Things to Me” album. The appreciation and gratitude I have for those who supported that project is immense, and your encouragement and cheerful reception of these songs has been beyond belief. I have a few new tunes up my sleeve, and am trying to put some time aside this summer to share those new tunes with you all. But for now…my thank you is to offer the digital download of my album for $5 for the month of May! What a deal right?! So, if you’ve put it off for the last year, now’s your chance to mend the error of your ways!
cross of our Lord Jesus. He has spent the whole book arguing for justification by faith alone, and that our works of righteousness will not and can never justify us before a holy God. This is how Paul chooses to close this great epistle: glorying in the cross of Christ.
Such chapters are easy to skip. Yet we do ourselves no favors by treating them as “lesser-thanâ€; these chapters require us to do the hard spade work of mining what principle, truth, or instruction is to be found. So, let’s “spelunk” right into the deep caverns of the typological gem I think is being shown to us here.
life, is a great reason for gratitude but much more when we are called to undergo extreme trials, which of themselves would crush our being. Blessed be God, who, having put our souls into possession of life, has been pleased to preserve that heaven given life from the destroying power of the enemy. And suffereth not our feet to be moved. This is another and precious boon. If God has enabled us not only to keep our life, but our position, we are bound to give him double praise. Living and standing is the saint’s condition through divine grace. Immortal and immoveable are those whom God preserves. Satan is put to shame, for instead of being able to slay the saints, as he hoped, he is not even able to trip them up. God is able to make the weakest to stand fast, and he will do so.
revolutionary fervor throughout history. When discontented and hasty fools band together in sufficient numbers, a revolt against the status quo is almost inevitable. The likelihood of achieving their intended end is questionable, because they didn’t think that far ahead, and probably have a thousand different definitions of what the intended end is.
