Yea, but I was there, @FrankieMcLister. I saw these people scream in the faces of innocent worshipers, shut down our service, and terrorize children. William Kelly was one of the worst. A fair ruling is actually what I want. youtube.com/watch?v=P8leeqmP…

“He who did not spare his own Son but gave him up for us all, how will he not also with him graciously give us all things?” – Romans 8:32 Really enjoyed this conversation about prayer on the @NewChurches podcast with @drmedders and @Adam_Muhtaseb.

“O God, who has taught us to seek first your kingdom and its righteousness — teach me to say, ‘Your will be done,’ before I say, ‘Give me my daily bread.’ Teach me to accept your will as the foundation of my happiness, and other things as only its superstructure. Convince me that it would not profit a man to gain the whole world and lose his own soul. Impress me with the truth that nothing can give me joy if I myself am not already joyful. Inspire me with the knowledge that the issues of life are not from without but from within. Guide me into the discovery that the pleasures at your right hand are the only things that are ‘pleasures forevermore.’ Amen.” – George Matheson (1842–1906)

Vote to advance as much righteousness as possible, trust in the supremacy of Christ above all earthly powers, and remember that “history in its entirety and in its parts corresponds to the counsel of God and exhibits the glory of that counsel.” — Herman Bavinck

Only a God outside of time, space, and matter could create something like this
NASA's released view of Mars' night sky (4K resolution)
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
This video was not released by NASA. NASA and JPL have stated that viral videos claiming to show Mars' night sky are not real, but are composite images combining daytime rover surface photos with Earth star fields. x.com/NASAMars/statu… x.com/NASAJPL/status…

Thomas Brooks called this heaven on earth. It’s the experience of assurance, and Christians should seek it — Ephesians 3:14–19.
On the latest Everyday Pastor episode, @LigonDuncan asked @JoelBeeke what we can learn from the Puritan Thomas Goodwin. Don’t miss Dr. Beeke’s answer. One of the most special moments we’ve ever had on the show.

“Take, Lord, receive all my liberty, my memory, my understanding, my whole will, all that I have and all that I possess. You gave it all to me, Lord; I give it all back to you. Do with it as you will, according to your good pleasure. Give me your love and your grace; for with this I have all I need.” – Ignatius of Loyola (1491–1556)

So much wonder culminates in the moment of John 18:40 ... “Not this man, but Barabbas!”
