If there is a God, then all reality apart from Him is subordinate to Him. Nothing exists nor happens by chance. —@AlexSarran https://t.co/0bEqIDfmMk

The marvel of biblical Christianity is that God, in His mercy, also took on a human nature in the person of Jesus Christ, and experienced human frailty, except for sin. —@AlexSarran https://t.co/0bEqIDfmMk

The study of God’s attributes through His works and His Word can be one of the best practices in the face of suffering. —@AlexSarran https://t.co/0bEqIDfmMk

The vile replies to this video are further evidence as to why many godly women remain single today—a dearth of godly and NORMAL young men. Sorry, but I wouldn’t want my daughters to marry whiney cowards who have nothing better to do than wait around on Twitter all day for the next dunk.
Her point was clearly that God can and does use women for his glory in their singleness. A woman need not be married to glorify God and enjoy him forever.

Loved this episode. I have great respect for both these officers and thought this was a very uplifting conversation on an important topic. Thank you ⁦@GeorgeSayour⁩ & ⁦@presbycast⁩ https://t.co/WA4Q9UdlQo

False teachers are notable in casting dirt, scorn, and reproach upon the persons, names, and credits of Christ's most faithful ambassadors.

@brothernelson That is "if he believes that he is not safe in a space with me..." That is not an issue. It violates Roberts. I had the opportunity to speak with TE Brindle afterward in an elevator. I don't think he was guilty of something malicious. He just needed to modify to meet the rules

[Ryan🇺🇬 (like Brian, but without the "B") Biese @RFBWCF]

In the PCA we have rules about debate. These rules may seem strange to folks accustomed to broad evangelicalism and confederations of churches created to protect one otherwise unordainable personality. @RevKevDeYoung did fine work as #PCAGA Moderator.

The Assembly heard the minority report on Overture 12, “Amend BCO 58-5 to Specify Only Officers May Distribute the Lord’s Supper,” and voted with the minority report to answer the overture in the negative. The vote was 1080-922. #PCAGA

L’Assemblée a adopté le maintien du délit d’entrave, doublant au passage les peines encourues. Le délit d’incitation, lui, a été rejeté. Le gouvernement, par la voix de la ministre de la Santé Catherine Vautrin, a choisi de s’en remettre à la « sagesse » de l’Assemblée.

Cette décision interroge profondément sur la place reconnue aux soignants dans notre société : comment exercer notre mission avec engagement et humanité, quand notre volonté d’aider à vivre est juridiquement répréhensible ?

[Alexandre Sarran @alexsarran]

@presbycast Neither do I. Where would you point to in the BCO that would show this?

[Ligonier Ministries @Ligonier]

Christ died the worst of deaths for the worst of people, yet He did it voluntarily. How could we not be moved if we are the recipients of such a costly sacrifice? This is how the love of Christ compels us. —@AlexSarran https://t.co/B6fe5SygNG

[Ligonier Ministries @Ligonier]

How does Christ’s love “compel” us?

“Christ gave Himself up as a substitute for many. In that sense, Christ is the hero of the Christian faith, and such heroism is supposed to move us.”

Mr. President, Ukraine did not “start” this war. Russia launched an unprovoked and brutal invasion claiming hundreds of thousands of lives. The Road to Peace must be built on the Truth.🇺🇸🇺🇦

[Alastair Roberts @zugzwanged]

ISTM the choice to speak of the 'sin of empathy' is responsible for so much of the problem here. This is frustrating as there are important points that need to be communicated here and such rhetorical choices appear to sacrifice so much light for publicity-producing heat.

Comme quoi, il y a du boulot…

3/ Troisième enseignement, comme on le savait (mais on a là une énième confirmation forte), les #évangéliques français sont très loin de leurs homologues US puisque, par exemple, ils sont 57 % à approuver la constitutionnalisation de l'#IVG ( 🧵4/5)

This is anecdotal, not empirical. But I think I see several factors generally present when Christian leaders disqualify themselves in sin.

Let me know if you see these things or others:
