David finally found the truth that it was not his seed of kingship but the promise made to Abraham that made him holy. From that, David refused to be moved and wrote this Psalm by the necessity of the Spirit as the assurance of faith. The law never made a man holy, not even one as robust as David; yet faith did this great thing without lifting a finger.

How should we read Paul, ya’ll? Why reading the Bible like a Southerner makes sense of confusing passages.
04/25/18
In Martin Luther's Small Catechism he borrows a line from St. Augustine about what defines a "god."

I’ve always been more at home in the Old Testament than in the New Testament.

From the untouchable living on the streets of India to the millionaire in Manhattan; from the farmer in Germany to the escort in Vegas; from the missionary in Argentina to the bartender in Ireland—they are all in the love zone of the Lord. Every. Single. One.

Whenever preachers get up to speak about the topic of love, they very often go to passages like 1 Corinthians 13, and they are very apt to do so — for there, under the Spirit’s design and influence, the apostle Paul gives, perhaps, the most complete view of love we’ve ever been given.
03/29/18
The disciples and Christ have just finished their last meal together. The disciples, of course, didn't know this, but Jesus did.

There is something about high art forms that touches the soul.

03/10/18
In God’s eyes, we cannot be too fat or ugly, mean or selfish, shamed or abused, corrupted or inadequate for him not to love us.
03/05/18
We are no longer controlled by sin as He moves our lips to speak love and forgiveness. We are passive as He acts out His words and His salvation for us.
