“Augustine once asked what makes the heart of a Christian heavy. His answer was not simply sorrow, pain, loss, or disappointment. The Christian heart is heavy because the Christian is a pilgrim who longs for his country.” –@ehenes@RScottClark@heidelcast@heidelbergrefo1

You probably can’t keep up with @ehenes…pastoring, moderating the OPC GA, lifting heavy things…but you can read his exposition of Psalm 123 on the HB:

@redeemed_zoomer Gloating? Nah. Thankful we’re not watching our kids exposed to apostate preachers and abandon the faith just so we can maintain “muh buildings”? Definitely.
@redeemed_zoomer Josiah is one my favorite ones too. He reminds us of what the Confession says, regarding some churches being too far gone. Josiah did all that, and judgment came. The Lord tore down the institution (Temple). Not once, but ultimately twice.
@redeemed_zoomer@IndianaBrunner@redeemed_zoomer It’s not that tough: “it is the duty of Christians to marry only in the Lord. And therefore such as profess the true reformed religion should not marry with infidels, papists, or other idolaters (WFC 24.3).
@redeemed_zoomer “Protestant views” were excommunicated? Views cannot be excommunicated. People are. Views don’t commune, people do. @grok was John Knox, founder of Presbyterianism in Scotland, excommunicated by the Roman Catholic Church?
@redeemed_zoomer The only Presbyterians who have written study Bibles in the last hundred years are the ones you mock and disdain as retreatists. Because they’re the ones who actually believe the Bible is the inspired word of God.
