Christians today need to know what they believe and declare their convictions to a world dominated by secularism and awash in relativism. Paul put it simply- -For with the heart one believes and is justified, and with the mouth one confesses and is saved- -Rom. 10-10-.--The first words of the Belgic Confession capture this urgent need of every age.…

To take the Bible seriously requires asking important questions about its authority. How do we know that the Scriptures accurately preserve what God intended to say about himself and his plan for the salvation of sinners-- How do we know that the Bible contains the right number of books-- Is the Bible worthy to regulate the beliefs and actions of p…

-All discipline seems painful rather than pleasant- -Heb. 12-11-. We can all agree with that statement- But there is something more painful-by failing to submit to proper discipline we invite the terrible consequences discipline was designed to prevent. The point of constructive discipline is this- God gives us measured pain to train us to walk wis…

In the reformed tradition parents bringing their children for baptism are asked three questions that are vital for godly parenting. They demand that parents know their children, believe the Christian faith, and raise their children in the way of the covenant. These questions are so foundational that they apply to all of us as we disciple the next g…

The fourth article of the Belgic Confession is basically a list of Bible books. That might not appear to be very edifying. But the list is important. It distinguishes the Protestant Bible from the augmented Bible of the Roman Catholic Church. It also distinguishes canonical books-or those that fit the rule of orthodoxy, and apostolic testimony-from…

What kind of book is the Bible-- Is it merely an ancient document written by men inventing a religion-- Is it like our Constitution, a useful guide developed by wise men, but one that can be amended when needed-- Is it special like other great writings that reveal the human condition and help us see divinity in the world-- Or is the Bible the very …

What kind of book is the Bible? Is it merely an ancient document written by men inventing a religion? Is it like our Constitution, a useful guide developed by wise men, but one that can be amended when needed?

The position may seem humble and c…

The church today faces a crisis that threatens our corporate witness and compromises the godly living of believers- We have borrowed from the world a too-low a view of our bodies. This may be a surprising claim given how much our world emphasizes bodily pleasure and appearance. But from issues like abortion, to transgenderism, to an out-of-control …
