Make no mistake: if he rose at all
It was as His body;
If the cells' dissolution did not reverse, the molecule reknit,
the amino acids rekindle,
the Church will fall.

John Updike, "Seven Stanzas at Easter"

This is biblical theology at its very best. C'mon!

Really, really excited about this. FREE video commentary as Roberts works through the entire Bible engaging with some of the best scholarship in each book. What a gift to the church! Well done!

[Alastair Roberts @zugzwanged]

Over the next while I will occasionally post videos of book-by-book biblical commentary on YouTube, with chapters easily searchable. The first—Genesis—is now uploaded here: https://t.co/cvQxXSWmL2.

Preaching on 1 Corinthians 7:17-24 this Sunday, and struck by this quote from Rankin Wilbourne's "Union with Christ":

"That's the freedom of the gospel you have through your union with Christ: there is nothing left to be, because you are already his."

Giddy at the possibility of a Nets-Sixers playoff matchup where Embiid is in Simmons' ear the entire time...

"We’ve exchanged catechism for community, theology for fading worldly theories. We’re lowering the bar. The future of discipleship is more Bible, not less." #misdiagnosis #EFCATheologyConference @jt_english

“If we forget about the demonstrations, and we forget about the convoy for just a second...This is a policy that now goes against the World Health Organization’s recommendation...for which no epidemiological studies and projections have been provided” 👀

@GregoryGHarris @BrettLandry I think on further consideration it is a win for Indiana. It is definitely not for Sac.

Something about deck chairs on the Titanic(s)...

"The milieu in which man lives is no longer his. He must adapt himself, as though the world were new, to a universe for which he was not created. He was made to go six kilometres an hour, and he goes a thousand."

From one of Paul's trips to heaven...

Talking to my boys about appropriate touch, setting boundaries, and "private parts" last night.

My six year old: "Well, Satan doesn't have private parts."

Me...I don't know what to do with that.

@ahc But are we looking for book jackets? Looking forward to this!

Listening to a faithful preacher on YouTube that is pure 🔥. The video has sixty views.

Beside it was a nutso video released the same day with over a thousand views.

You know this. I know this. But as I once heard @JawnO say, "ministry success is a terrible north star".

Canada pumping the US in men's soccer to qualify for the world cup and the @Sportsnet stream is hot garbage. C'mon!

[Jacob LeFave @jakelefave]

@_MatthewCrocker I'm not smart enough to figure out what old books are saying without someone else helping me along. So I definitely don't skip...

[Jacob LeFave @jakelefave]

I needed this reminder to pray for my brothers and sisters in these countries, maybe you do as well.

@_MatthewCrocker What sort of mad-man/woman does not read the introduction? It's the last few chapters that probably don't need to be read...
