📣Ministry Update This week my family and I will be transitioning to the DFW area where I will be serving as the Director of Discipleship and Theologian in Residence for GRIT Ministries. We will also be joining the Trails Church in Celina, TX. I accepted this role several…

"What happens after the Nicene dogma is settled in Constantinople helps us to understand that creeds, no matter how ancient or prevalent, will always need reformation and reclarification." ~@i_am_bijan christoverall.com/article/concis…

Greg Welty: "'Reformed Baptist' [is] not a contradiction of terms, but a qualification of terms, a subjecting of the traditionally Reformed version of covenant theology to a more careful biblical scrutiny."

Part of my answer to @CT_Lenard's question: "Does the Noahic Covenant reaffirm the Dominion and/or Cultural Mandate? 👇

The Noahic covenant is far more robust than the word count it is given in the Bible may suggest—when it is weighed properly with the rest of Scripture. Here I try to explain how redemptive grace fuels common grace, such that God's preservation of creation is for His elect.⬇️

It was a joy to join @CT_Lenard for this series on the biblical covenants, and in particular, to discuss the Noahic covenant and its implications both within the biblical storyline and for us today!

The Noahic covenant is often under appreciated in comparison to the other biblical covenants. In this convo @MichaelCarlino and I unpack the beauty and significance of this covenant in the biblical storyline and its implications for the world and the church today.

The Old Testament is filled with types of Christ. They exist because the purpose of the Old Testament is to prepare the way for the Lord. As shadows on the ground are cast by sunlight, Old Testament types are shadows cast by Sonlight.

I’m looking forward to preaching from Matthew 5:8 tomorrow on “Moral Integrity” Outline 👇🏽 I. The Problem - Compromise & Conformity - Our Impurity II. The Provision - Foundation: Christ’s Purity - Means: Christ’s Transforming Word - Goal: Seeing Christ

“Not one single ethnic Jew who believes in Jesus Christ as the Messiah has been "replaced" or lost his/her inheritance in the blessings of the covenant. Rather, every single ethnic Gentile who believes in Jesus Christ as the Messiah has been "included" in the commonwealth of…

“Christ is the true Israel, and as true Israel, he represents the church as the continuation of true Israel from the OT. Christ came to do what Israel should have done but failed to do. Those who identify by faith with Christ, whether Jew or gentile, become identified with him…

“The calling out of Gentiles from among every tribe, tongue, people, and nation is the prophesied restoration of Israel, for the Church is the continuation and maturation of Israel's believing remnant.” — Sam Storms, Kingdom Come, 200.

This is great! No matter where you land on the issue, you should check it out. Much to consider.

I was reminded this morning that most Big Eva “worship” is entirely captured by Pentecostal Lyrics and Hyper-Feminine Emotions. Is it any wonder that young men are leaving evangelical churches to go to Rome and Eastern Orthodox Churches. And worse, many think this kind of…

“For this I rejoice, praise, and thank you, O God. Without cost and out of pure grace you have given me this boundless blessing in your dear Son. Through him you take sin, death, and hell from me, and do grant me all that belongs to him. Amen.” — Martin Luther

Sam Waldron on “replacement” theology: “As the butterfly surpasses the caterpillar from which it emerges, so the Church as the New Israel surpasses the Old Israel. The butterfly does not exactly replace the caterpillar. It is the caterpillar in a new phase of existence. In the…
