When the Bible repeats itself, pay attention.

Did not know that the Congregationalists had their own version of the WCF/2LBCF: the Savoy Declaration (1658) drafted by John Owen and Thomas Goodwin. (p. 51)

Think I might jot down some interesting ideas I’m finding in Haykin’s, Chute’s, and Finn’s THE BAPTIST STORY:

[Caleb Stallings @CalebStallings_]

10 or less of the 1st Baptists, led now by Thomas Helwys, returned back to northern London, establishing the 1st General Baptist church by 1612.

Fortunately, they were up to 150 by 1626. (pp.17-20)

The Gospel of John as a journey through the “tabernacle” (Jn 1:14).

[Caleb Stallings @CalebStallings_]

Therefore, do we pray Thee, Lord:
Help Thy servants whom, redeeming
By Thy precious blood out-poured,
Thou hast saved from Satan’s scheming.
Give to them eternal rest
In the glory of the blessed!

[Caleb Stallings @CalebStallings_]

From Thy high celestial home,
Judge of all, again returning,
We believe that Thou shalt come
In the dreaded doomsday morning;
When Thy voice shall shake the earth,
And the startled dead come forth.

[Caleb Stallings @CalebStallings_]

Thou art King of glory, Christ:
Son of God, yet born of Mary;
For us sinners sacrificed,
And to death a tributary:
First to break the bars of death,
Thou has opened Heaven to faith!

[Caleb Stallings @CalebStallings_]

Holy Father, Holy Son,
Holy Spirit, Three we name Thee;
While in essence only One,
Undivided God we claim Thee;
And adoring bend the knee,
While we own the mystery!

[Caleb Stallings @CalebStallings_]

Lo! The apostolic train
Join, the Sacred Name to hallow;
Prophets swell the loud refrain,
And the white-robed martyrs follow;
And from morn to set of sun,
Through the church, the song goes on!

[Caleb Stallings @CalebStallings_]

Hark! the loud celestial hymn
Angel choirs above are raising,
Cherubim and Seraphim,
In unceasing chorus praising;
Fill the heavens with sweet accord:
Holy, holy, holy LORD!

[Caleb Stallings @CalebStallings_]

Holy God, we praise Thy Name;
Lord of all, we bow before Thee!
All on earth Thy scepter claim,
All in Heaven above adore Thee;
Infinite Thy vast domain,
Everlasting is Thy reign!

[Caleb Stallings @CalebStallings_]

"Hasten that glorious time, when the knowledge of the gospel of Jesus Christ shall cover the earth, as the waters cover the sea.”

“O God of all nations of the earth, we thank you, that you are no respecter of persons, and that you have made of one blood all people. Rend the heavens, O Lord, and come down upon the earth.

[Tom Schreiner @DrTomSchreiner]

In tumultuous times politically

Do not call everything a conspiracy
that these people say is a conspiracy.
Do not fear what they fear;
do not be terrified.
You are to regard only the Lord of Armies as holy.
Only he should be feared;
only he should be held in awe.

Isa 8.12-13
