👉🏻 Of the many pictures of the relationship between God and His people, the vine and branch picture emphasizes complete dependence and the need for constant connection. The branch depends on the vine even more than the sheep depends on the shepherd or the child depends on the father. As Jesus was about to depart from His disciples, this was important encouragement. He would remain united to them and they to Him as truly as branches are connected to the main vine.

@SavagelyAvg I love the looks on their faces.
[Smiling] "Oh, let's talk while we're dancing."
[Thinking] "Why does this careless woman want to talk while's we're dancing? This is very concerning and does not appeal to me at all."

@philipnation That’s hard to hear! The struggle is real.

@dominicptaranto @CovenantReform2 Which covenant?

[David Guzik @davidguzik]

@SavagelyAvg There were even worse options

The command is to respect the seventh day (Saturday) as a day of rest (you shall do no work). This rest was for all of Israel – for the son and the servant and the stranger – even including cattle.

@BanjoAtheist @TGrogan268173 Being an atheist doesn’t make it hard enough to sing that song?

Clearly, the act itself is condemned. God allows no justification for the ways that many often seek to justify extra-marital sex. It is not to be done, and when it is done it is sin and it damages.

👉🏻When Solomon’s temple was built, the stones were prepared at a place far from the temple building site. It was said that you couldn’t hear the sound of a hammer or axe or other iron tools at the site (1 Kings 6:7). In the same way, God prepares us first, and then He fits us into His building.

@LostMyHats @mitchellvii Interesting choice of words….

[David Guzik @davidguzik]

Paul is compelled to add here that this is the work of God’s grace, in no way involving man’s merit. Our salvation – our rescue – from spiritual death is God’s work done for the undeserving.

@oneofmanymikes Mike, you're very welcome!

💭Instead of promoting one command over another, Jesus defined the law in its core principles: love the LORD with everything you have and love your neighbor as yourself.

👉🏻Because we know the danger of the times and we anticipate the soon return of Jesus, we should be all the more energetic and committed to a right walk with God instead of a sleep-walk with God.

@YourCalvinist Welcome to California! Too bad you’re not coming south to Santa Barbara

@JeffVanderstelt Seems like Jesus did a lot of this: “And Jesus went about all Galilee, teaching in their synagogues, preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing all kinds of sickness and all kinds of disease among the people.”
