[Graham Nicholls @gpnicholls]

This week @cchhtweets agreed move to Christian Standard Bible as default for preaching. This is not a vote against the NIV or other good versions but that on balance CSB is a better balance of readability with accuracy and preservation or idioms

[Marcus Honeysett @marcushoneysett]

"followers of the way who call on the name of the Lord" was a remarkably dynamic way of describing the first believers. It spoke about a people on the move with Jesus

Very different to "church-goers in a building"

See the harvest, be filled with compassion, pray and get into the harvest - it really is plentiful

[David Skull🏴‍☠️ @DavidJSkull]

If we don’t preach a full on Biblical gospel into the vacuum in our society at the moment it could be filled by a grace-less version of Christianity from the extreme right just as we have had to suffer a repentance-less version of Christianity from the extreme left

Good one to read and (hopefully) sign ✍️ ❤️

If this petition for a "heartbeat bill" gets to 100,000 signatures it will be debated in parliament.

What are @robertstrivens' hopes for his new book, The 1689 Handbook, and what impact should readers and local churches expect on their lives as they read it?
In this video, Robert shares his heart about these things.

The 1689 Handbook is available at special pre-order price, in anticipation of its release on Wednesday 24th September. A free ebook is included in the price: https://t.co/Rlq352qBeC

What is the purpose of the Christian life? Here is Richard Sibbes' response “to grow in nearer communion with God by his Spirit, to have more knowledge and affection, more love and joy and delight in the best things daily.”- A Breathing After God

[Ben Virgo @RememberLondon]

@theweeflea writes about the 'absolute evil' that is the UK Parliament's vote for decriminalisation of Abortion up to brith.

And, the 'Quiet Judgement on the UK' in light of the Abortion and AD votes.

Both are linked below. 👇👇

[Grace Publications Trust @gracepubbooks]

This forthcoming title from @robertstrivens will be of tremendous benefit to individual Christians and local churches as they seek to grow in their understanding and application of the gospel.

[Dave Brennan (Brephos) @BrephosUK]

The 1967 Abortion Act was the fruit of the Church's silence - and worse.

Here we are nearly 60 years later.

A week or two after one of our leading theologians completely fluffed it on abortion, it is decriminalised up till birth.

As is the Church within her, so is the nation.

[Marcus Honeysett @marcushoneysett]

Perhaps a major attraction to Christianity in Britain in years to come will be that we don’t kill our infants & old people

Belief - even residual - that we are all made in the image of God is what leads us to protect the most vulnerable rather than dispatch them as inconvenient

Stephen Charnock on God's special presence in the church. This is why we gather for *worship* on Sunday, not just for fellowship.

🧵How did such a recent Bible translation EXPLODE in popularity with pastors, theologians, and everyday readers alike?

Here’s the origin story and impact of the Christian Standard Bible.

[Grace Publications Trust @gracepubbooks]

We are proud to publish 'Good Bad No Dad?' by @JohnDavidWoods1, and are grateful to Dan Strange for his positive review in this month's @EvangelicalsNow.

We believe that this is a vital read for everyone who wants to understand the impact of fatherlessness on our world, and its effect on our own hearts.

[London Seminary @LondonSeminary]

On Saturday, our Principal @billjames1689 attended the launch of 'Good News for London', a @gracepubbooks & @LondonCM initiative to distribute copies of Mark's Gospel which are designed with Londoners in mind. Both organisations have history and friendships with the Seminary.

[London City Mission @LondonCM]

The good news - too good not to share!

We’ve worked with @gracepubbooks and @CSBible to produce contemporary ‘zine style copies of Mark’s gospel.

Designed for mass distribution to share with a stranger or neighbour.
