Introducing Warren Westfall

I am finally getting around to doing some catch up on my reading and remembered that my good friend Warren had just started a blog and had posted an article on The role of the Christian Father. This is the first of what promises to be a very good series- if only Warren would get off his duff and finish it. So please take the time, go over and check out what Warren has got going on over there. But please be warned Warren is an unrepentant MAC user, other than that he OK.

It amazes me that most people would not think twice about having sex with more than one person but when it comes to drinking after someone it’s a different story.

With the Easter season upon us I thought that I would post a few of what I feel are the best messages that reflect the season.  This first on is Mark Driscoll preaching at Mars Hill Church in Seattle, WA.  This is by far the most beautifully graphic depictions of the Crucifixion that I’ve heard.  To think that it should be us on that cross.

Obedience

‘Take heed, and hearken, O Israel; this day thou art become the people of the Lord thy God. Thou shalt therefore obey the voice of the Lord thy God, and do his commandments.’ Deut 27: 9, 10.

What is the duty which God requireth of man?

Obedience to his revealed will.

It is not enough to hear God’s voice, but we must obey. Obedience is a part of the honour we owe to God. ‘If then I be a Father, where is my honour?’ Mal 1: 6. Obedience carries in it the life-blood of religion. ‘Obey the voice of the Lord God,’ and do his commandments. Obedience without knowledge is blind, and knowledge without obedience is lame. Rachel was fair to look upon, but, being barren, said, ‘Give me children, or I die;’ so, if knowledge does not bring forth the child of obedience, it will die. ‘To obey is better than sacrifice.’ 1 Sam 15: 22. Saul thought it was enough for him to offer sacrifices, though he disobeyed God’s command; but ‘to obey is better than sacrifice.’ God disclaims sacrifice, if obedience be wanting. ‘I spake not unto your fathers concerning burnt offerings, but this thing commanded I them, saying, Obey my voice.’ Jer 7: 22. Not but that God did enjoin those religious rites of worship; but the meaning is that he looked chiefly for obedience — without which, sacrifice was but devout folly. The end why God has given us his laws, is obedience. ‘Ye shall do my judgements, and keep mine ordinances.’ Lev 18: 4. Why does a king publish an edict, but that it may be observed?

What is the rule of obedience?

Want to try something new

In order to try to make this blog more than a empty spot on the WWW, I thought I’d start posting parts of Thomas Watson’s Ten Commandments and the try and spark a discussion in the comment section.
