The core of the Gospel - Paul Washer - Quote

"The core of the Gospel is absent from too many pulpits:
God's justice, man's depravity, the atonement,
true conversion, and assurance."
- Paul Washer

The Love of God

"Could we with ink the ocean fill,
And were the skies of parchment made,
Were every stalk on earth a quill,
And every man a scribe by trade,
To write the love of God above,
Would drain the ocean dry.
Nor could the scroll contain the whole,
Though stretched from sky to sky."
~ From the hymn The Love of God by Frederick M. Lehman

Psalms 47:1-9 - "King of all the earth!"

 (1) To the choirmaster. A Psalm of the Sons of Korah. Clap your hands, all peoples! Shout to God with loud songs of joy!  (2)  For the LORD, the Most High, is to be feared, a great king over all the earth.  (3)  He subdued peoples under us, and nations under our feet.  (4)  He chose our heritage for us, the pride of Jacob whom he loves. Selah  (5)  God has gone up with a shout, the LORD with the sound of a trumpet.  (6)  Sing praises to God, sing praises! Sing praises to our King, sing praises!  (7)  For God is the King of all the earth; sing praises with a psalm!  (8)  God reigns over the nations; God sits on his holy throne.  (9)  The princes of the peoples gather as the people of the God of Abraham. For the shields of the earth belong to God; he is highly exalted!

Poem - George Herbert

Thou hast but two rare cabinets full of treasure,
The Trinity, and Incarnation:
    Thou hast unlocked them both,
And made them jewels to betroth
    The work of thy creation
Unto thyself in everlasting pleasure.

~ George Herbert: Ungratefulness

Being Transformed

Romans 3:19-26 - "justified by his grace as a gift"

(19)  Now we know that whatever the law says it speaks to those who are under the law, so that every mouth may be stopped, and the whole world may be held accountable to God.  (20)  For by works of the law no human being will be justified in his sight, since through the law comes knowledge of sin.  (21)  But now the righteousness of God has been manifested apart from the law, although the Law and the Prophets bear witness to it--  (22)  the righteousness of God through faith in Jesus Christ for all who believe. For there is no distinction:  (23)  for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God,  (24)  and are justified by his grace as a gift, through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus,  (25)  whom God put forward as a propitiation by his blood, to be received by faith. This was to show God's righteousness, because in his divine forbearance he had passed over former sins.  (26)  It was to show his righteousness at the present time, so that he might be just and the justifier of the one who has faith in Jesus.

Psalm 46:1-11 - "Be still, and know that I am God"

(1) To the choirmaster. Of the Sons of Korah. According to Alamoth. A Song. God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.  (2)  Therefore we will not fear though the earth gives way, though the mountains be moved into the heart of the sea,  (3)  though its waters roar and foam, though the mountains tremble at its swelling. Selah  (4)  There is a river whose streams make glad the city of God, the holy habitation of the Most High.  (5)  God is in the midst of her; she shall not be moved; God will help her when morning dawns.  (6)  The nations rage, the kingdoms totter; he utters his voice, the earth melts.  (7)  The LORD of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our fortress. Selah  (8)  Come, behold the works of the LORD, how he has brought desolations on the earth.  (9)  He makes wars cease to the end of the earth; he breaks the bow and shatters the spear; he burns the chariots with fire.  (10)  "Be still, and know that I am God. I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth!"  (11)  The LORD of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our fortress. Selah






Be still and know he is God!
