I have it on very good authority that the next episode of @NoLastingCity_ podcast will be entitled, ‘Candid with NoCo’.

Real talk with @nocoradio.

Keep an eye out.

People of biblical integrity tend also to be people with unashamed boldness.

— John MacArthur

[Nathan White @NWhite_GA]

In 2nd Timothy 4 where Paul charges Timothy to "preach the word in season and out of season", he specifically includes "reproof" and "rebuke" in that exhortation. Yet, many today see preaching as only that which should always and only comfort and encourage.

Duties are ours, and events are God’s.

The Church cannot do collectively what it will not do individually.

- John MacArthur

[The Master's Seminary @MastersSeminary]

"If we're going to stand in the presence of God and not be incinerated by His holiness, we need a positive record of righteousness credited to our account. Which means we need a substitute who not only dies in our place but who also lives in our place." — Mike Riccardi #TMSChapel https://t.co/BnTVW4EAT7

[FoundersMin @FoundersMin]

It takes a church to raise a Christian, and believers who think they are sufficient in themselves to maintain spiritual health and growth without submitting to a church are dangerously naive.

“On the other hand, some people with the pretense of mildness and patience are content to hear God dishonored, His servants scorned, and religion disgraced.

“But cursed be the mildness that causes us to betray God’s glory and truth by holding our peace and winking at those who offend. …

“This mildness is the bastard child of pride, the mother of evil. It causes them to seek courtesy and the praise of men by betraying the glory of God.”

— John Downame

Cessationism does not deny miracles.

Cessationism is not a denial, or quenching, of the Holy Spirit.

[Matthew Johnston @iMatthewJ]

It is a sin to tell a lie.

It is also a sin to believe a lie.

[Matthew Johnston @iMatthewJ]

Unless Yahweh builds the house,
those who build it labor in vain. Unless Yahweh watches over the city, the watchman stays awake in vain. It is in vain that you rise up early and go late to rest, eating the bread of anxious toil; for He gives to His beloved sleep.

— Psalm 127:1-2
