@aaron_renn > The PCA is unable to operate by even basic professional standards.

The examples you provide reduce to discourtesy. Perhaps a better "professional standard" may be measuring outcomes?

For example, quality of education and pastors, church plants world-wide, children catechized?

@heygurisingh Plato said the same thing about the written word.

[Adriel Sanchez @AdrielTweets]

Keep your eyes peeled for this. In recent days there has been a renewed need for solid Protestant apologetics. I think Mike, Gavin, and Jordan have done a great job individually addressing these issues and can't wait to hear them together.

@rickbrennanjr That's right. Also, let this sink in. We will at that moment already have been glorified. Our bodies will be like Christ's. Our hearts will be perfected. We will stand before him, on his right, being "further clothed". Those on his left will be as though naked before him.

@AdrielTweets Great looking pot for the Lords Day dinner! Can you share a recipe? What is this

[Maxwell Kendall @MNK5490]

We were richly blessed by the ministry of the Word this past Lord's Day. Christ can never be heard nor preached enough. Truly he alone is worthy of our deepest trust and devotion. Soli Deo Gloria!

We had a blessed Lord’s Day yesterday. I preached twice at Christ Church Presbyterian in Charleston, South Carolina for my good friend, Dr. Jon Payne—once on “Union with Christ and Justification” (Rom. 3) and later on “The Only Way to Live and Die” (Phil. 1:21).

@thisisfoster There have been faithful men fighting for the pca for a long time. Planting churches, praying, doing the work of churchmen. The GRN is a prime example.

@MattWalshBlog What a compelling argument: the teaching of the Roman "catholic" church is novel and out of accord with antiquity and Scripture. It could never be since the church has "always taught" xyz and you could never understand the bible without the lords of conscience in Rome.

@DanielRHyde @PresbyInn So good!

In loving memory of Charlie Kirk, a fearless patriot & man of unwavering faith who dedicated his life to America.

"It's bigger than you, I want you to remember that... It's bigger than me - you are here to make somebody else's life better, the pursuit of liberty & freedom."❤️

[The Presbytery Inn @PresbyInn]

Charlie believed in America and what it stands for.

So will I.

[Maxwell Kendall @MNK5490]

his meekness and patience, and great charity. And grant that this our land may be freed from the vengeance of his righteous blood, and thy mercy glorified in the forgiveness of our sins, and all for Jesus Christ’s sake, our only mediator and advocate. Amen.

[Maxwell Kendall @MNK5490]

indignities, and at last resisting unto blood; and even then, according to the same pattern, praying for his murderers. Let his memory, O Lord, be ever blessed among us, that we may follow the example of his courage and constancy,

[Maxwell Kendall @MNK5490]

Blessed Lord,

In whose sight the death of thy saints is precious: we magnify thy Name for the abundant grace bestowed upon Charlie Kirk, by which he was enabled so cheerfully to follow the steps of his blessed Master and Savior, in a constant meek suffering of all barbarous

[Justin Hart @justin_hart]

“Charlie Kirk, how do you want to be remembered?”
@charliekirk11 :”By my faith…”

[Charlie Kirk @charliekirk11]

Jesus died for us

Was tortured for us

He is a gift to broken humans

He is a teacher for the lost

He suffered so we can be forgiven

Jesus is love

Jesus is LORD

Charlie Kirk would have been president. His friends knew it. His admirers knew it. And his enemies knew it.

This universal confidence in Charlie’s future began with his countless political accomplishments. At 18, he founded Turning Point USA, which went on to become the most important cultural organization on the American Right. By 22, he was addressing the Republican National Convention. Three years later, he founded Turning Point Action, which led the get-out-the-vote efforts that delivered the first Republican popular vote victory in twenty years. In his spare time, Charlie published five books, hosted a national talk show, married a lovely wife, and fathered two beautiful children. All of that by 31.

Charlie’s appearance inspired as much confidence as his accomplishments. At a towering six-foot-five slouching, he joked that he had descended from the Nephilim—the giant “fallen ones” of the Old Testament. He might have been born with such a nature, as are we all, but he was not content to remain so. Charlie loved his Savior. The zeal with which he debated politics paled in comparison to the excitement with which he discussed religion. And his religious life bore fruit.

Turning Point launched a Faith division to focus specifically on his followers’ souls. There too, Charlie’s enthusiasm for open debate set the tone, as he invited atheists and even Catholics to take part. But he didn’t need a specific religious conference to convey his faith. Charlie Kirk’s religion bore fruit in everything he did.

Discerning observers believed in Charlie Kirk, not chiefly for his accolades or his appearance, but for his manifest virtue. Charlie’s prudence, the principal virtue in politics, built a generational coalition that helped to transform the American government. His temperance distinguished him as one of the few on the Right to eschew whisky, cigars, and every other delight that might have distracted him from his purpose, for which he had so little time. His sense of justice produced clarity in moral vision and grace for his opponents. His fortitude impelled him to enter the public square without a hint of servile fear.

Charlie’s only fear was the holy sort—awe and wonder, the beginning of wisdom—and his clearest virtues were theological: faith, hope, and charity. We mourn his death, we take up his cause, and we entrust him, as he confidently entrusted himself, to God’s care.

[The Presbytery Inn @PresbyInn]

O LORD God, to whom vengeance belongeth; O God, to whom vengeance belongeth, shew thyself.

Lift up thyself, thou judge of the earth: Render a reward to the proud.

LORD, how long shall the wicked, How long shall the wicked triumph?

How long shall they utter and speak hard things? And all the workers of iniquity boast themselves?

They break in pieces thy people, O LORD, And afflict thine heritage.

They slay the widow and the stranger, And murder the fatherless.

Yet they say, The LORD shall not see, Neither shall the God of Jacob regard it.

Understand, ye brutish among the people: And ye fools, when will ye be wise?

He that planted the ear, shall he not hear? He that formed the eye, shall he not see?

He that chastiseth the heathen, shall not he correct? He that teacheth man knowledge, shall not he know?

The LORD knoweth the thoughts of man, That they are vanity.

Blessed is the man whom thou chastenest, O LORD, And teachest him out of thy law;

That thou mayest give him rest from the days of adversity, Until the pit be digged for the wicked.

For the LORD will not cast off his people, Neither will he forsake his inheritance.

But judgment shall return unto righteousness: And all the upright in heart shall follow it.

Who will rise up for me against the evildoers? Or who will stand up for me against the workers of iniquity?

Unless the LORD had been my help, My soul had almost dwelt in silence.

When I said, My foot slippeth; Thy mercy, O LORD, held me up.

In the multitude of my thoughts within me Thy comforts delight my soul.

Shall the throne of iniquity have fellowship with thee, Which frameth mischief by a law?

They gather themselves together against the soul of the righteous, And condemn the innocent blood.

But the LORD is my defence; And my God is the rock of my refuge.

And he shall bring upon them their own iniquity, and shall cut them off in their own wickedness; Yea, the LORD our God shall cut them off.

Psalm 94
