For all the trouble in the SBC there is still a beautiful remnant, may it be said of me as it was said of JC Ryle: "With all her faults he loves the Church of England still, he loves the souls of men much more, and most of all the gospel of their salvation." ~ Charles Spurgeon

@StevenDHead The Christian Heroes: Now and Then version is great for kids, and it's definitely the most readable and the only one I've finished.

@JCRyle Then I saw that there was a way to hell, even from the gates of heaven. ~ John Bunyan

This song is just veiled Marxism... If you're blaming others for your oppression you'll forever be the victim. I'm troubled that just because it attacks the"right" people it has gone viral. If the Son sets you free you shall be free indeed.

This song is called "Rich Men North of Richmond." It has been viewed MILLIONS of times.

The artist's name is Oliver Anthony. I just got off the phone with him.

With his permission, I'd like to share the story he told me that moved the deepest parts of my soul...

A religion that costs nothing is worth nothing. A cheap Christianity, without a cross, will prove in the end a useless Christianity, without a crown. -@JCRyle

Amazing how many professing Christians, even self-designated "conservative" ones, are embarrassed by God's Word. Just quote some unpopular words of God & watch what happens. Many so-called Christians react the same way that unashamed unbelievers do. It's a commentary.

Tim Keller's legacy is effeminates, progressives, and unbelievers.

He has contributed, perhaps as much as anyone, to the decline of conservative evangelical convictions and influence in America and the West.

Most of his disciples are unconverted leftist political operatives.

Mark, this is not true and you know it is not true. Cessationists (I am one) have complete confidence in the very active, unceasing work of the Holy Spirit. This is intentional intellectual dishonesty on your part.

I believe the Holy Spirit is very active and very powerful. I do not, however, - and in contrast with you - believe the Holy Spirit puts these kind of images in people's minds because He is, well, Holy. https://t.co/Ou41iMXVLu

It is with cheerfulness that we dismiss our twelves, our twenties, our fifties, to form other churches. We encourage our members to leave us to found other churches, nay, we seek to persuade them to do it! ~ Charles Haddon Spurgeon

@ABereanOne @Pohlman is just North of the River at Oak Park, that's where I'd go if I was in Louisville!

You'll never have trouble if you prepare for it. ~ Theodore Roosevelt

All of my prep time is in the past; ten years of formal prep and many more of hobby prep has prepared for a plethora of impassioned speaking on any topic.

[Keith Foskey @YourCalvinist]

What could you give an impassioned speech about for at least 30 minutes without any prep time? I’ll go: (other than theology) The Superiority of 80s cinema :-)

@JCRyle I love this quote and Surgeon said similar:

[Canyon Shearer @Keruzate]

@NAMB_SBC I had lunch today with a seven year old girl who was baptized on Sunday. Her whole lunch table knew of her baptism and that Jesus died for her sins. Her former bully called her his best friend. We've been praying for him for months!

@tommy_alderman I've come back to John Gill's commentary on Jeremiah 17:9 many times, a powerful reminder that our worst enemy is not Satan who is external to us! https://t.co/zxoMqlSCGk

Say to them, As I live, declares the Lord GOD, I have no pleasure in the death of the wicked, but that the wicked turn from his way and live; turn back, turn back from your evil ways, for why will you die, O house of Israel? ~ Ezekiel 33:11

[Canyon Shearer @Keruzate]

Saddened to hear of the perishing of @timkellernyc...May his teaching and influence on the church perish with him.

With so many faithful Bible preachers & teachers, why do we latch on to such garbage?

Only one life,
'twill soon be past,
only what's done for Christ
shall last!
