It’s not our eloquence or persuasive rhetoric that changes hearts, but the Word of God that pierces through the hardened shells of unbelief and breathes life into the dead bones of sinners.
-
This is an excerpt from chapter 9 of “What Can Really Know?: The Strengths and Limits of Human Understanding” by David Andersen (1517 Publishing, 2023).
-
No matter how far away they wander, God always hears the prayers of his children.
-
Prayer is not just about asking for things. It's about receiving what has already been given to us in Christ.
-
Tim wanted everyone to know to the deepest part of their being that they were justified by Christ alone.
-
God wants his word of promise to be the only thing we bank on, the only thing we have confidence in.
-
Walther’s living legacy is his enduring teaching on how to distinguish the law and the gospel in the Church’s proclamation.
-
The drama of Scripture is about God renaming us by bringing us into his image-bearing family once again. And it would take “a name above all names” to accomplish it.
-
This is the prelude of Easter. Is a dead Jesus still resting in the tomb? No!
-
What is undoubtedly true, however, is that St. Peter wasn’t left outside. He wasn’t left weeping. He was restored, as am I, as are you.
-
The hardest thing you and I will ever be called to do is to believe that it is done already, that it really and truly is finished.
