@DBryanRhodes I've been stung several times, and I'm allergic, so I might be Waspman too ๐คฃ I even keep a can of wasp/bee/hornet killer on standby on our patio.
I built a site with 200+ works of Reformed theology, Latin works translated into English for the first time, and a personal library you can search with AI.
You shouldn't need a PhD and a research library to read Zanchi. The sources belong to the church.
Here's what it does ๐งต
@DBryanRhodes I'll never forget the time an Australian family visited our little church plant in Venice because they were staying nearby and we were the only Reformed church in the area. Their example changed my thinking in this area for sure.
Now available to pre-order: The Baptist Standards - Our Catechisms, Confessions, and Creeds.
------
The Baptist Standards brings together the primary confessions and catechisms of the early Reformed Baptist tradition, illustrating how early Baptists understood that they stood firmly within the reformed Christian tradition while still maintaining their doctrinal distinctives.
At the center of the collection are the First London Baptist Confession of Faith (1646), the Second London Baptist Confession of Faith (1677/1689), The Orthodox Catechism (1680), and The Baptist Catechism (1695) complete with their Scripture proofs.
Also included are the great ecumenical creeds of the faithโthe Apostlesโ, Nicene, and Athanasian creeds and the Symbol of Chalcedon. A series of appendices further enrich the volume by presenting key historical documents, tracking the development of Baptist theology within the broader Reformed tradition. Each included document is accompanied by a historical introduction from Dr. Thomas J. Nettles, providing necessary context and tracing its theological significance.
This collection serves both as a reliable doctrinal reference and a practical teaching tool, preserving the confessional heritage of the Reformed Baptist tradition.

This week marks 6 years since I got to peach my first sermon.
I haven't gone back to look, but it might also mark 3 years since my last sermon.
I miss it.
Elvish technology in Tolkien produced the three elven rings,
it reflects purposes intrinsic to Middle Earth and develops them.
In our world a similar outlook gave us the cathedrals of Europe and technology existing in harmony with human nature.
The technology of our time resembles that of Sauron or Saruman.
It rejects natural law and thinks of the natural world as an accident and a mechanism to be hacked.
It's given us the architecture of modernity, and the desecration of the human form through bioengineering and transhumanism.

Thanks to Pastors Jeff and Bryan for coming to the studio and talking this through today. Was a fun episode. Keep fighting, men. We're building something great!

I'm still disappointed Jeff's original video was controversial for some Christians. This article helps explain why, plus some helpful advice at the end!
