Mark Dever recently suffered a serious cardiac event. The Lord graciously spared his life, and Mark is recovering well.

In God’s providence, listen to what he said on his most recent appearance on @9Marks’ 𝘗𝘢𝘴𝘵𝘰𝘳𝘴 𝘛𝘢𝘭𝘬.

Praying for this dear brother.

Many prayer meetings are more focused on keeping saved people out of Heaven a little longer, rather than keeping lost people out of Hell for eternity.

[Josh Pilgrim @JoshPilgrim]

People who have true "sympathy" generally do not say, "I know how you feel." Because since they know how you feel, they also know how unhelpful it is to hear someone say, "I know how you feel."

Challenging word from the Valley of Vision:

"Help me to be in reality before Thee as in appearance I am before men."

Richard Baxter- "Never doth sin so reign in a church or state, as when it hath gained reputation, or at least, is no disgrace to the sinner."

The greatest victory for sin is not its private practice but its public acceptance. When sin loses social stigma, it dominates a culture.

[Josh Pilgrim @JoshPilgrim]

Why do we live in a fallen world? Why did God decree that the world would be broken by sin? Why the problem of evil?

Because a Suffering Savior requires a world of suffering in which to save.

It’s all about Jesus.

[Robert Bortins @TheRobertBshow]

You get 18 summers. Then they're visiting.
You get 940 weekends. Then they have their own.
You get 6,570 bedtimes. Then silence.
Time is the only real currency of parenthood. Spend it wisely.
You can't earn more.

@cmichaelshuman @johnmacarthur Well said!

To preach is simply to direct the rage of the world against oneself.

-- Luther

[Josh Pilgrim @JoshPilgrim]

Praise of God is not the result of a problem-free life... it's the mark of a God-saturated heart.

Psalm 34:1 "I will bless the Lord at all times. His praise shall continually be in my mouth."

[Josh Pilgrim @JoshPilgrim]

Prayer honors Providence, and Providence honors prayer.

-- John Flavel

[Josh Pilgrim @JoshPilgrim]

"This may be the reason why some ministers of lesser gifts are more successful than some that are far above them in abilities; not because they preach better, so much as because they pray more. Many good sermons are lost for lack of much prayer in study."
-- Robert Traill

[Josh Pilgrim @JoshPilgrim]

The strength of a church is not measured by the number of names on a roll, but by the actual participation of its members in the work.

[Josh Pilgrim @JoshPilgrim]

"False doctrine is like yeast: it enters secretly, it grows quickly, and permeates completely."
