Christ-like love imitates its originator. As we come back to Scougal’s sermon on loving our enemies, we now may savor the fruits of what that love looks like. I cannot think of a more humbling human fault than our inability to love others as our Savior has loved us. Even for those [...]

This woman deserves a raise! Make sure you’ve fully digested your last meal though.

Romans 14:1 Now accept the one who is weak in faith, but not for the purpose of passing judgment on his opinions.
Sometimes I tolerate theological inaccuracies (I promise). Usually, it happens when I’m in the midst of a “sharing time” with other believers. When someone opens up their spiritual life to me and wants me [...]

One of the most difficult things about being a Seattle Supersonics
(a professional basketball team) fan last year was that they seemed do their best in the 3rd quarter of the game, giving the appearance of confidence, only to completely lose control of the game in the 4th quarter. As a fan, you sit [...]

For those of you who don’t know me personally, or haven’t talked with me for more than 5 minutes, I’m a huge fan of John MacArthur. I don’t really have any knowledge about his family, though, since he rarely mentions anything about them. Although I appreciate his desire to put the focus on [...]

A few years ago, I watched Kill Bill, vol. 1 and 2, with my dad. There are few directors or writers (or director/writers) who have the ability to put a movie together with the skill and aesthetic sensibility that Quentin Tarrantino has. But as much as I appreciated many elements of the movies, [...]

I thought I’d mix it up a bit, just for today. Oh! By the way, I have a new niece! Her name is Autumn Christine Robinson. She was born this morning.
Now what you’ve been waiting for:
The Holiness of God in Whom?

The most succinct definition I can give for “holiness” is this: the quality of being uniquely possessed by God. For instance, the ground upon which Moses stood when he saw the burning bush is “holy ground” (Exodus 3:5). People who have a special relationship with God are known in the Bible [...]
The Holiness of God: Introduction

Ever since I attended a Ligonier conference in which R.C. Sproul preached on the holiness of God, I have felt it was a central, though often overlooked, theme of the Bible. I was in High School when I saw Dr. Sproul preach. Since I had developed a passion for theology and a [...]
