Hay un extraño fenómeno que ocurre cada octubre: las redes se llenan de frases en latín, imágenes de Lutero sosteniendo una Biblia, y coros virtuales de “Sola Scriptura” y “Soli Deo Gloria”. Es hermoso… pero también un poco trágico. Porque para muchos, la Reforma se ha convertido en eso: un evento estacional, un desfile teológico que pasa con las hojas del otoño.La Reforma Protestante no fue una campaña publicitaria de una iglesia queriendo ser visible en medios - fue un despertar espiritual - y si somos verdaderamente reformados— aquel "volver a la vida" debe seguir avivándonos todos los días del año.Ser reformado no es colgar una cita de Calvino, Lutero, Zwinglio, o tu reformador favorito el 31 de octubre, sino vivir de tal manera que el Soli Deo Gloria sea el himno de cada respiración. La Reforma auténtica comienza en el corazón cuando la Palabra de Dios, empuñada por el Espíritu, destruye nuestros ídolos más refinados y reconstruye nuestro pensamiento, nuestro carácter y nuestras prioridades sobre el fundamento de Cristo.El apóstol Pablo lo dijo sin metáforas: “Así que, hermanos, os ruego por las misericordias de Dios, que presentéis vuestros cuerpos en sacrificio vivo, santo, agradable a Dios, que es vuestro culto racional” (Romanos 12:1).Esa es la Reforma diaria: la mente renovada, la voluntad sometida, la vida ofrecida. Si nuestra teología no produce obediencia, humildad y adoración, entonces no es Reforma, es fariseísmo ilustrado.Martín Lutero no clavó sus tesis para que colgáramos posters, sino para proclamar que solo Cristo salva, por gracia. Juan Calvino no escribió su Institución para inspirar debates académicos, sino para formar creyentes que vivan “coram Deo”, conscientes de la presencia y dominio de Cristo en todos los ámbitos: en el estudio, el trabajo, el matrimonio, la enfermedad, la risa y el llanto.Ser reformado es, por tanto, un modo de existencia: es amar la verdad porque se ama al Dios de la verdad; es adorar con la mente y con el corazón; es obedecer en santidad y devoción. Es vivir reformando cada área de la vida bajo el señorío de Cristo.La Reforma no terminó en 1517. Sigue avanzando, porque el corazón humano sigue necesitando reformarse - “Toda la vida del cristiano es una continua conversión”.Ser reformado no es un eslogan; es un continuo volver a la Palabra cada día.¡Soli Deo Gloria! —Y no solo en octubre.

You were meant to live a life of ethical beauty. Jesus shows us how.How should I live? It's one of the most important questions in life. Every human being is a moral creature; the problem is that we don't all agree on morality. But what if there was an objective moral standard that's true in all times and places? That's exactly what Scripture gives us - and it's exactly what our conscience needs. In this sermon, we explore how faith in Jesus makes it possible to live a life of ethical beauty.Series Description: Jesus is the hero of all of Scripture, the center of the biblical story, and the most important figure in history. The Gospel of Matthew gives us a firsthand look at the life and teachings of Jesus. It stands as a “bridge” between the Old and New Testaments, grounding us in the rich story of Israel while revealing the in-breaking reality of the kingdom of heaven. Through this preaching series, we seek to help people encounter the gospel of the kingdom and embody it as flourishing disciples who live under the gracious rule of God.

Cultural history and folklore celebrate the tenacity and resilience of their heroes. These legacies are celebrated for their faithfulness. The critical analysis Solomon endorses in the book of Proverbs would ask: “faithfulness to what?”. No so-called ‘hero' will pass the true test of greatness if his efforts were dedicated in service of idols. Family, honor, patriotism, philanthropy, public service, courage, scientific genius, etc. are not virtues ends unto themselves but are sanctified only in the service of righteousness & the glory of God. Those who dedicate their lives in sacrificial faithfulness to anything less than this are not heroes in truth. Don't be deceived Solomon adjures the student of wisdom —the object of our devotion separates the wise from the fool, the righteous from the wicked, the good man from the sinner.

1 After these things was a festival day of the Jews, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.Post haec erat dies festus Judaeorum, et ascendit Jesus Jerosolymam. 2 Now there is at Jerusalem a pond, called Probatica, which in Hebrew is named Bethsaida, having five porches.Est autem Jerosolymis probatica piscina, quae cognominatur hebraice Bethsaida, quinque porticus habens. 3 In these lay a great multitude of sick, of blind, of lame, of withered; waiting for the moving of the water.In his jacebat multitudo magna languentium, caecorum, claudorum, aridorum, exspectantium aquae motum. 4 And an angel of the Lord descended at certain times into the pond; and the water was moved. And he that went down first into the pond after the motion of the water, was made whole, of whatsoever infirmity he lay under.Angelus autem Domini descendebat secundum tempus in piscinam, et movebatur aqua. Et qui prior descendisset in piscinam post motionem aquae, sanus fiebat a quacumque detinebatur infirmitate.Benedict XV extended to the Universal Church the Feast of the holy Archangel St Raphael, who is known to us from the inspired words of the book of Tobias as the angelical physician of soul and body.From the Book of Tobias, 12, 7-15 7 For it is good to hide the secret of a king: but honourable to reveal and confess the works of God.Etenim sacramentum regis abscondere bonum est : opera autem Dei revelare et confiteri honorificum est. 8 Prayer is good with fasting and alms more than to lay up treasures of gold:Bona est oratio cum jejunio, et eleemosyna magis quam thesauros auri recondere : 9 For alms delivereth from death, and the same is that which purgeth away sins, and maketh to find mercy and life everlasting.quoniam eleemosyna a morte liberat, et ipsa est, quae purgat peccata, et facit invenire misericordiam et viam aeternam. 10 But they that commit sin and iniquity, are enemies to their own soul.Qui autem faciunt peccatum, et iniquitatem, hostes sunt animae suae. 11 I discover then the truth unto you, and I will not hide the secret from you.Manifesto ergo vobis veritatem, et non abscondam a vobis occultum sermonem. 12 When thou didst pray with tears, and didst bury the dead, and didst leave thy dinner, and hide the dead by day in thy house, and bury them by night, I offered thy prayer to the Lord.Quando orabas cum lacrimis, et sepeliebas mortuos, et derelinquebas prandium tuum, et mortuos abscondebas per diem in domo tua, et nocte sepeliebas eos, ego obtuli orationem tuam Domino. 13 And because thou wast acceptable to God, it was necessary that temptation should prove thee.Et quia acceptus eras Deo, necesse fuit ut tentatio probaret te. 14 And now the Lord hath sent me to heal thee, and to deliver Sara thy son's wife from the devil.Et nunc misit me Dominus ut curarem te, et Saram uxorem filii tui a daemonio liberarem. 15 For I am the angel Raphael, one of the seven, who stand before the Lord.Ego enim sum Raphael angelus, unus ex septem, qui adstamus ante Dominum.Tobias 8.3Then the angel Raphael took the devil, and bound him in the desert of upper Egypt.Tunc Raphael angelus apprehendit daemonium, et religavit illud in deserto superioris Aegypti.

The good life is found on the narrow way. “All men seek happiness.” So said the French philosopher Blaise Pascal. Every human being has a longing for satisfaction, fulfillment, wholeness. What does Jesus have to say about happiness? In this sermon, we explore how Jesus's words in the Sermon on the Mount reveal the path to genuine happiness and flourishing.Series Description: Jesus is the hero of all of Scripture, the center of the biblical story, and the most important figure in history.

Note the list of metaphors Solomon weaves into his instruction in this section…each one a telling picture: Light/Lamp (9), Tree (12), & Fountain (14).   Each is a picture of source and effect.   A lamp filled with oil provides light by which the blindness of the dark is cured.   A tree firmly rooted in fertile and irrigated soil produces life sustaining fruit. (The olive tree was the classic example in ancient times highly valued for its multi-functional and nutritious fruit). Thirdly, a fountain fed by springs provides an ever-new supply of water to quench the thirst of land and creatures who rely on this basic natural resource.   For Solomon, this relationship between source and effect is mirrored in the spiritual realm of life as well.   According to Proverbs, the sovereignly revealed wisdom of God is the vital source of human flourishing for the soul.   The Word of God is the lamp, the tree, and the fountain for the wise.

While John Granger labors with the paid subscribers to chart each of Hallmarked Man's ten Parts and one Epilogue (in preparation for a charting of the whole book structure), there will be a break in the series of conversations they have had about Strike 8 in which they have focused on a single Shed tool per episode. They will be discussing instead during the charting period a series of Q&A discussions about topics that have come up on the moderator back-channels, email from paid subscribers, and news from Rowling World.They had fourteen questions for the recording above and only managed to get through five. Deo volente and trans Atlantic work schedules permitting, they'll record a second show this week to discuss the greater remnant of the original fourteen and questions that subscribers ask in the comment boxes below this post.

Because the kingdom of heaven is at hand, you should drop everything and follow Jesus.Every human being is a follower of someone or something. At the end of Matthew 4, Jesus announces that the kingdom of heaven is near and calls his first disciples to follow him. In this sermon, we examine what it means to drop everything and follow Jesus in light of the kingdom of heaven.Series Description: Jesus is the hero of all of Scripture, the center of the biblical story, and the most important figure in history.

The concept of a ‘new song' in the scriptures is usually with reference to extraordinary occasions worthy of thankful praise include celebration and commemoration of the grace & glory of God upon securing victory for His people despite existential threats and peril.  Think of the songs on the lips of those who were the first to receive immanent news of the incarnation… Many, Zechariah, Simeon wrote the first Christmas Carols as ‘new songs' praising God & welcoming their messiah.  Today's psalm is not one of these precisely, rather it contains a vow to write such a song upon answers to David's plea for the salvation of himself and his people.  Languishing under the threat of his enemies David longs for the day his deliverance will occasion further music.  In the meantime therefore, Psalm 144 is a new song song written in supplication for such a time.

26 And in the sixth month, the angel Gabriel was sent from God into a city of Galilee, called Nazareth,In mense autem sexto, missus est angelus Gabriel a Deo in civitatem Galilaeae, cui nomen Nazareth, 27 To a virgin espoused to a man whose name was Joseph, of the house of David; and the virgin's name was Mary.ad virginem desponsatam viro, cui nomen erat Joseph, de domo David : et nomen virginis Maria. 28 And the angel being come in, said unto her: Hail, full of grace, the Lord is with thee: blessed art thou among women.Et ingressus angelus ad eam dixit : Ave gratia plena : Dominus tecum : benedicta tu in mulieribus. 29 Who having heard, was troubled at his saying, and thought with herself what manner of salutation this should be.Quae cum audisset, turbata est in sermone ejus, et cogitabat qualis esset ista salutatio. 30 And the angel said to her: Fear not, Mary, for thou hast found grace with God.Et ait angelus ei : Ne timeas, Maria : invenisti enim gratiam apud Deum. 31 Behold thou shalt conceive in thy womb, and shalt bring forth a son; and thou shalt call his name Jesus.Ecce concipies in utero, et paries filium, et vocabis nomen ejus Jesum : 32 He shall be great, and shall be called the Son of the most High; and the Lord God shall give unto him the throne of David his father; and he shall reign in the house of Jacob for ever.hic erit magnus, et Filius Altissimi vocabitur, et dabit illi Dominus Deus sedem David patris ejus : et regnabit in domo Jacob in aeternum, 33 And of his kingdom there shall be no end.et regni ejus non erit finis. 34 And Mary said to the angel: How shall this be done, because I know not man?Dixit autem Maria ad angelum : Quomodo fiet istud, quoniam virum non cognosco? 35 And the angel answering, said to her: The Holy Ghost shall come upon thee, and the power of the most High shall overshadow thee. And therefore also the Holy which shall be born of thee shall be called the Son of God.Et respondens angelus dixit ei : Spiritus Sanctus superveniet in te, et virtus Altissimi obumbrabit tibi. Ideoque et quod nascetur ex te sanctum, vocabitur Filius Dei. 36 And behold thy cousin Elizabeth, she also hath conceived a son in her old age; and this is the sixth month with her that is called barren:Et ecce Elisabeth cognata tua, et ipsa concepit filium in senectute sua : et hic mensis sextus est illi, quae vocatur sterilis : 37 Because no word shall be impossible with God.quia non erit impossibile apud Deum omne verbum. 38 And Mary said: Behold the handmaid of the Lord; be it done to me according to thy word. And the angel departed from her.Dixit autem Maria : Ecce ancilla Domini : fiat mihi secundum verbum tuum. Et discessit ab illa angelus.In its present form the Rosary (according to the accepted tradition) is due to St Dominic, the founder of the Order of Friars Preachers, his objective being to stem the flood of the Albigensian heresy, then spreading far and wide throughout Europe. He propagated this prayer in obedience to a revelation received from the Blessed Virgin, to whom he had recourse for this purpose, about the war 1206, and to him we owe the spread of a devotion, in the Christian world. The decisive defeat of the Turks at the famous battle of Lepanto (A.D. 1571) and at Belgrade (A.D. 1716) gave occasion to the institution of this Feast and to its extension to the Universal Church.

Zora war krank im Bett und konnte deshalb nicht wie geplant ihre Küchenschlacht-Rezepte ausprobieren. Trotzdem gab's Grund zur Freude: Der Launch ihres Buches stand an! Witzigerweise sind Kind und Buch quasi parallel entstanden – die „Geburt“ des Buchs liegt nur wenige Wochen nach der des Babys. Auch bei Hanna läuft alles auf ihren eigenen Buchrelease zu. Sie steckt mitten in den Vorbereitungen fürs große Launchevent – inklusive kleiner „Snacky-Snacks“. Zora hatte ja in der letzten Folge Angst, das Kochen verlernt zu haben. Jetzt ist klar: Alles gut! Nach einem besonders gelungenen Gericht ist das Selbstvertrauen zurück. Weniger rund lief's dagegen bei Hanna: Sie war zu einem Event bei einem Italiener eingeladen … dachte sie zumindest. Zwei Stunden vor Beginn wurde sie von der PR-Agentur wieder ausgeladen. WHAT?! Im Service sprechen Hanna und Zora über die Rolling Pin.Convention – und darüber, warum Frauen dort immer noch unterrepräsentiert sind. Außerdem erntet Zora ihre letzte Wassermelone und verkostet sie direkt im Podcast – inklusive Schmatzgeräusche. Natürlich kommen auch die Fragen aus dem Cream-Team nicht zu kurz: Diesmal geht's um den besten Slowjuicer, und in der Rubrik „Probleme am Herd“ um die richtigen Backutensilien. Im Dreierlei verraten die beiden ihre liebsten herzhaften Gerichte mit süßen Zutaten. Und beim Feierabendbier erzählt Zora von ihrem bevorstehenden Auftritt bei der NDR Talkshow, während Hanna auf ihren Buchrelease und das JRE Genusslabor 2.0 in München blickt, wo sie kochen darf.

Because Jesus resisted temptation, you can too.Temptation isn't a religious thing; it's a human thing. Every human being recognizes that there are things they are tempted by. But what's the solution? In Matthew 4:1-11, Jesus himself is tempted, yet he fully resists. In this sermon, we explore the fact that because Jesus resisted temptation, you can too.Series Description: Jesus is the hero of all of Scripture, the center of the biblical story, and the most important figure in history.

Toward the aim of increasing reverence for the Lord's table and all that it entails, Paul emphasizes the necessity of discerning the body.  In I Corinthians 11:17-34, we see this applies in three senses. We must have a devotional understanding of the church, of the ordinance of communion, and of ourselves.  Having considered already the necessity of discerning the church body and the symbolic body, we now turn to Paul's instructions to examine ourselves (27-34). Today's sermon is an expanded analysis of the third application of Paul's instruction regarding the supper, taking the occasion of communion as opportunity to examine our personal relationship with the Lord.  As it relates to our souls, may a proper understanding of what the Lord's table commemorates and proclaims yield the fruit of conviction, reverence, humility, and obedience.

In previous eras, people fought and died for their views of baptism. But in our era, it's often seen as a religious ritual that has little practical significance. In Matthew 3, Jesus is baptized by John the Baptist, demonstrating that he has come to identify with sinful humanity. In this sermon, we explore the significance of Jesus' baptism and how, in Christian baptism, the Christian receives the gift of the Spirit, the intercession of the Son, and the loving voice of the Father.Series Description: Jesus is the hero of all of Scripture, the center of the biblical story, and the most important figure in history.

Much is made of generational characteristics these days.  We have identified and categorized ourselves by causes and effects of history that shape the identity of Americans born in different eras.  World War II defined the coming of age for those of my grandparent's generation for instance.  Rising to the occasion of their time earned them the title of: “The Greatest Generation”.  Those born in their looming shadow were largely overlooked & thus dubbed: “The Silent Generation” followed by the “Baby Boomers” known for their prolific numbers. This generation was followed by: “Generation X” exploring unconventional influences for their identity…and so on.  Modern scholars have proffered the theory that the cyclical nature of generational types is virtually inevitable as if we are slaves to the social influences defining an era.  Solomon disagrees.  He outlines a framework for multi-generational legacy building that takes action rather than surrender to the default settings of culture.  Parents and children heed these words.  Proverbs is a handbook for breaking generational curses and building generational righteousness

Two things are simultaneously true about every human being: we all long for something greater than ourselves to worship and serve, yet we fiercely resist any authority that threatens our control. This tension is represented in the magi and King Herod in Matthew 2. In this sermon, we explore the remarkable truth that Jesus is the fulfillment of Israel's hopes (and ours). In Jesus, the nations are gathered in, evil is defeated, and a new Exodus has begun.Series Description: Jesus is the hero of all of Scripture, the center of the biblical story, and the most important figure in history.

Psalm 143 is the last of the so called “Penitential” Psalms.  This song joins Psalms 6, 32, 38, 51, 102, & 130 in a set identified through church history by themes of soul searching repentance, unrestrained confession, and exclusive hope in the Lord of the Covenant. However, while it is one thing to have the self awareness and honesty to rightly understand your troubled situation…it's quite another to be rescued from the consequences of that condition.  David understands that deliverance is possible because of WHO God is… therefore he grounds his request & appeal on the faithfulness (1), righteousness (1,2,11), & steadfast love (8,12) of His Lord & Master. The occasion for this song certainly parallels Psalm 142.  Perhaps both songs were written from the cave in Adullam.

Names carry meaning. In his birth account, Matthew introduces two names that reveal who Jesus truly is. He is called Jesus, because he will save his people from their sins. He is called Immanuel, because he is God with us. n this sermon, we reflect on how these two names reveal the character and identity of Jesus: He is God incarnate who has come near to save sinners, and his presence never leaves us.Series Description: Jesus is the hero of all of Scripture, the center of the biblical story, and the most important figure in history.

Discernment in this context entails proper understanding bearing fruit of conviction, reverence, humility, and obedience. We can relate to, and learn from, the risks and rewards of frequent communion Paul addresses in this letter. As in all of life, we must approach the communion table walking in the Spirit, not the flesh. While we recognize that familiarity & mere repetition often foster a casual irreverence, it remains true that the very things we must remember in order to repent of our callous hearts are pictured and proclaimed at THE LORD'S TABLE. A good prayer to prepare for communion might be… Lord, may my often-weary soul ever cherish and never despise the living water and bread of heaven which sustains me unto glory… As we noted in Old Covenant parallels proclaimed in Chap 10 of this epistle last week, communion is New Covenant provision for the believer in the wilderness of life…. Let us therefore nurture an acquired taste for all the means of grace that we might drink deeply and be satisfied with water from our Rock Jesus Christ.

And therefore also the Holy which shall be born of thee shall be called the Son of God.Et respondens angelus dixit ei : Spiritus Sanctus superveniet in te, et virtus Altissimi obumbrabit tibi. Ideoque et quod nascetur ex te sanctum, vocabitur Filius Dei. 36 And behold thy cousin Elizabeth, she also hath conceived a son in her old age; and this is the sixth month with her that is called barren:Et ecce Elisabeth cognata tua, et ipsa concepit filium in senectute sua : et hic mensis sextus est illi, quae vocatur sterilis : 37 Because no word shall be impossible with God.quia non erit impossibile apud Deum omne verbum. 38 And Mary said: Behold the handmaid of the Lord; be it done to me according to thy word. And the angel departed from her.Dixit autem Maria : Ecce ancilla Domini : fiat mihi secundum verbum tuum. Et discessit ab illa angelusThe great victory, which John Sobieski, king of Poland, gained against the Turks under the walls of Vienna, caused the Pope Innocent XI to make this Feast obligatory throughout the whole Wester Church as a yearly act of thanksgiving for the deliverance of Christian Europe.

1 And when great multitudes stood about him, so that they trod one upon another, he began to say to his disciples: Beware ye of the leaven of the Pharisees, which is hypocrisy.Multis autem turbis circumstantibus, ita ut se invicem conculcarent, coepit dicere ad discipulos suos : Attendite a fermento pharisaeorum, quod est hypocrisis. 2 For there is nothing covered, that shall not be revealed: nor hidden, that shall not be known.Nihil autem opertum est, quod non reveletur : neque absconditum, quod non sciatur. 3 For whatsoever things you have spoken in darkness, shall be published in the light: and that which you have spoken in the ear in the chambers, shall be preached on the housetops.Quoniam quae in tenebris dixistis, in lumine dicentur : et quod in aurem locuti estis in cubiculis, praedicabitur in tectis. 4 And I say to you, my friends: Be not afraid of them who kill the body, and after that have no more that they can do.Dico autem vobis amicis meis : Ne terreamini ab his qui occidunt corpus, et post haec non habent amplius quid faciant. 5 But I will shew you whom you shall fear: fear ye him, who after he hath killed, hath power to cast into hell. Yea, I say to you, fear him.Ostendam autem vobis quem timeatis : timete eum qui, postquam occiderit, habet potestatem mittere in gehennam : ita dico vobis, hunc timete. 6 Are not five sparrows sold for two farthings, and not one of them is forgotten before God?Nonne quinque passeres veneunt dipondio, et unus ex illis non est in oblivione coram Deo? 7 Yea, the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Fear not therefore: you are of more value than many sparrows.sed et capilli capitis vestri omnes numerati sunt. Nolite ergo timere : multis passeribus pluris estis vos. 8 And I say to you, Whosoever shall confess me before men, him shall the Son of man also confess before the angels of God.Dico autem vobis : Omnis quicumque confessus fuerit me coram hominibus, et Filius hominis confitebitur illum coram angelis Dei These two brothers were scourged and beheaded at Rome in the persecution of Valerian and Gallian A.D. 262.

  What's drawing people to Hot Springs Village, Arkansas? After countless conversations with my audience, I've learned a few surprising lessons about the people considering/planning to retire here. In this episode of Hot Springs Village Inside Out, I share three big takeaways that caught me off guard:✅ Many of you are planning your move 2–4 years in advance ✅ Some of you move to different places to expand your retirement experience ✅ Golf, pickleball, and lake life are bigger motivators for some than the cost of living ✅ Quite a few of you think Hot Springs Village is more "touristy" than it really is✅ A surprising number of you have never even visited Arkansas before considering the Village If you're curious about life in Hot Springs Village—or just wondering why so many retirees are looking this way—this episode will give you an inside look at what's happening.

 39 And Mary rising up in those days, went into the hill country with haste into a city of Juda.Exsurgens autem Maria in diebus illis, abiit in montana cum festinatione, in civitatem Juda : 40 And she entered into the house of Zachary, and saluted Elizabeth.et intravit in domum Zachariae, et salutavit Elisabeth. 41 And it came to pass, that when Elizabeth heard the salutation of Mary, the infant leaped in her womb. And Elizabeth was filled with the Holy Ghost:Et factum est, ut audivit salutationem Mariae Elisabeth, exsultavit infans in utero ejus : et repleta est Spiritu Sancto Elisabeth : 42 And she cried out with a loud voice, and said: Blessed art thou among women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb.et exclamavit voce magna, et dixit : Benedicta tu inter mulieres, et benedictus fructus ventris tui. 43 And whence is this to me, that the mother of my Lord should come to me?Et unde hoc mihi, ut veniat mater Domini mei ad me? 44 For behold as soon as the voice of thy salutation sounded in my ears, the infant in my womb leaped for joy.Ecce enim ut facta est vox salutationis tuae in auribus meis, exsultavit in gaudio infans in utero meo. 45 And blessed art thou that hast believed, because those things shall be accomplished that were spoken to thee by the Lord.Et beata, quae credidisti, quoniam perficientur ea, quae dicta sunt tibi a Domino. 46 And Mary said: My soul doth magnify the Lord.Et ait Maria : Magnificat anima mea Dominum : 47 And my spirit hath rejoiced in God my Saviour.et exsultavit spiritus meus in Deo salutari meo.At the time of Mary's birth the whole world was plunged in darkness. The heathen nations were steeped in vice and pride. The Jews, beloved of God, had strayed from Him. Everywhere there was sin and gloom, no bright spot on the face of the earth. But when Mary was born a light arose amid the darkness; the dawn of the glorious day that was to usher in the Redeemer. So, too, the darkness of the sinner's soul is dispersed by Mary's holy influence. Where the love of her is born in the soul, all becomes full of light, and Jesus comes to make is habitation there. Mary, in the first hour of her life, brought more glory to God than all the Saints of the Old Testament. In her were made perfect obedience of Abraham, the chastity of Joseph, the patience of Job, the meekness of Moses, the prudence of Josue. It is because she is the model and pattern of these and all other virtues that she can communicate them to us.

The letter 'N' is the key to understanding the Bible. Rise, decline, anticipation – this is the story of the Old Testament, and the story of your life may follow a similar pattern. In the introduction to Matthew's Gospel, we learn that the arrival of Jesus is both a culmination and a new beginning. Jesus Christ is the focal point of history – and because he is, we should orient our lives around him.Series Description: Jesus is the hero of all of Scripture, the center of the biblical story, and the most important figure in history. The Gospel of Matthew gives us a firsthand look at the life and teachings of Jesus. It stands as a “bridge” between the Old and New Testaments, grounding us in the rich story of Israel while revealing the in-breaking reality of the kingdom of heaven. Through this preaching series, we seek to help people encounter the gospel of the kingdom and embody it as flourishing disciples who live under the gracious rule of God.

As in the Days of Moses, Baptism commemorates a miracle, seals a covenant, and identifies a people. Today we look at the symbols of baptism in the scriptures, their substance fulfilled in Christ, and the application of these truths for this service and these baptizees today… Paul reminds us in our primary text today of the exodus moment when Moses stretched his hand over the Red Sea. Baptism signifies that our Messiah has stretched out his hands upon the cross parting the seas of death for us.  Baptism testifies to the sovereign grace of God breathing eternal life into the believer just as He did over creation, into Adam, over the judgement waters of the great flood, and across the Red Sea thus saving His people! When the baptism waters are parted, they signify our cleansing and the drowning of our greatest enemies (sin & death). Through the waters of baptism we symbolically cross over unto promised land inheritance of glorious reconciliation with God Almighty by virtue of union with our Messiah and federal head, Jesus Christ. Through baptism the door of communion at the Lord's table is thrown open wide to welcome us as the people of God, the church of Jesus Christ!

And it came to pass, as he was going to Jerusalem, he passed through the midst of Samaria and Galilee.Et factum est, dum iret in Jerusalem, transibat per mediam Samariam et Galilaeam. 12 And as he entered into a certain town, there met him ten men that were lepers, who stood afar off;Et cum ingrederetur quoddam castellum, occurrerunt ei decem viri leprosi, qui steterunt a longe : 13 And lifted up their voice, saying: Jesus, master, have mercy on us.et levaverunt vocem, dicentes : Jesu praeceptor, miserere nostri. 14 Whom when he saw, he said: Go, shew yourselves to the priests. And it came to pass, as they went, they were made clean.Quos ut vidit, dixit : Ite, ostendite vos sacerdotibus. Et factum est, dum irent, mundati sunt. 15 And one of them, when he saw that he was made clean, went back, with a loud voice glorifying God.Unus autem ex illis, ut vidit quia mundatus est, regressus est, cum magna voce magnificans Deum, 16 And he fell on his face before his feet, giving thanks: and this was a Samaritan.et cecidit in faciem ante pedes ejus, gratias agens : et hic erat Samaritanus. 17 And Jesus answering, said, Were not ten made clean? and where are the nine?Respondens autem Jesus, dixit : Nonne decem mundati sunt? et novem ubi sunt? 18 There is no one found to return and give glory to God, but this stranger.Non est inventus qui rediret, et daret gloriam Deo, nisi hic alienigena. 19 And he said to him: Arise, go thy way; for thy faith hath made thee whole.Et ait illi : Surge, vade : quia fides tua te salvum fecit.Our divine Redeemer heals ten lepers, both Jews and Samaritans, who have recourse to Him. "Arise, they faith hath made thee whole." Through His Church our Lord gives back health to the souls, Jews and Gentiles, who have recourse to Him.

In this sermon, we explore the Bible's vision of intentional transformation, summarized powerfully in Romans 12:1-2. Every human being is being transformed. Change is not something only religious people seek; it's something every human being seeks. How do God's grace and our purposeful effort fit together in the pursuit of change? That's the question we seek to answer in this sermon.

Having considered the house of the righteous according to Solomon in proverbs 12 verses 1-7 and the dominion of the righteous in verses 8-15 we now turned to the witness of the righteous in versus 16-24. Consider the prayer of humble consecration offered by King David at the anointing ceremony of his son to rule the nation of Israel (Worship text: 1 Chronicles 29:11-14).  The anointing of Solomon as king signaled David's dynasty would continue on the throne of Israel for another generation. Most in his position would seize the opportunity of this moment for broadcasting the glories of his kingdom with great pomp & circumstance.  David did not share this impulse because of his faith in & worship of YAHWEH.  No doubt moments like this served as inspiration and instruction for his son who would go on to rule this prosperous nation and write this chapter of Proverbs identifying virtues worthy of the godly for the benefit of his own son's instruction and ours.

What happens when the traditional dental model can't reach the patients who need care most? That's the problem Dr. Kwane Watson set out to solve. In this episode, he shares how his pivot to mobile dentistry brought care to over 7,000 patients last year across Kentucky and Georgia. You'll hear how he turned a failed app into a thriving model, managed overwhelming demand with 31,000 calls in a year, and why convenience—not location—is shaping the future of dentistry.

Mag je iemand eigenlijk wijzen op een slechte adem? Is het een goed idee om parfum cadeau te geven? Welke geuren zouden eigenlijk verboden moeten worden? Denk aan taxi’s die ruiken naar te heftige aftershave, visagisten die met rook vingers aan je gezicht zitten, of situaties waarin iemand anders zonder te vragen jouw tandenborstel gebruikt! Zoals Noraly zegt: “What about wierook?” In deze aflevering gaat het over geuren in de breedste zin van het woord: parfum, lichaamsgeuren, herinneringen aan specifieke geuren, vakanties en nog veel meer. Zo komen we erachter dat Roos onpasselijk wordt van kokos, dat Eva haar parfum en douchegel bewaart voor speciale momenten, en dat Noraly vertelt dat je van bruine bonen last kunt krijgen van ‘puffen’. Haar tip? Op zo’n moment vooral niet samen in de auto stappen! In de 79e aflevering van Generatie Vrouw praten Noraly Beyer (79), Roos Schlikker (50) en Eva Breda (28) over geuren.Support the show: https://libelle.nl/generatievrouwSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

By God's grace, Coram Deo Church celebrates 20 years of gospel ministry this month. As we praise God for His faithfulness and look forward to what lies ahead, we welcome guest preacher Scotty Smith to preach about the transforming love of Jesus Christ.

A comprehensive analysis of any area of human life should prioritize the question: “what is the ordering principle of this domain?”. The answer to this question is key to assessing sanctity, durability, and fruitfulness. It gets to the heart of what something is and why it exists (essence & purpose).  The book of Proverbs is all about ordering principles.  Solomon teaches the student of wisdom to discern the present order of things as he engages in life. He proclaims what the ordering principles of life ought to be, for example: “The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom.” He equips disciples to take dominion in their respective callings according to God's Word.  Proverbs 12 makes application for family and vocation according to the ordering principle of righteousness.

Send us a textHere is episode "10", if anyone is actually keeping track of the pattern we're "following" around the Great Wheel. Here are Lorehaven Hearth, we discuss to rich, storied lore of Dungeons and Dragons - and occasionally Pathfinder. While we're are it, we examine it from a Christian perspective, and look for ways to redeem the TTRPG genre. Season 2 has afforded us some fantastic discussions so far, as we've traveled our way around the Great Wheel, two Planes of existence at a time. Mt. Celestia and Bytopia remind us of most of what the Bible describes the new Heaven we have to look forward to will look like, while every one of the Lower Planes have left us with their individual flavors of "ick". We're reaching the end of the Season, with just two other pairs, and a wrap up episode to go, after this one. We're in talks about what the theme for Season 3 will be, as well as discussing ways to expand the types of content we send your way. Please Subscribe and Follow, Rate, and leave a Review!

In this sermon, preached by one of Coram Deo's church planting partners, Dave Comeau, we explore what it means to follow examples who know where they are going and who also know where they belong.To be human is to seek to imitate and follow someone. Human beings are creatures who gravitate toward the examples of others, whether for good or for ill.

We are familiar with the designation of nobility or gentlemen classes, vs. lower or servant class distinctions in film or literature depictions of European monarch culture which developed over the centuries and lingered for quite some time in these societies. These dynamics seem foreign and wrong to us given our modern egalitarian sensibilities. Proverbs stands, indeed, as a correction of presumptions of social order from this time, but for different reasons than we might think.  An observation worthy of critique in this era was the arbitrary and often ironic nature of these class structures.  Whether or not one was truly a gentleman in character often had no bearing on whether or not he was a gentleman by social class.  Likewise a noble servant trustworthy and faithful may never attain the title of nobleman as far as society was concerned.  Proverbs teaches us that while there is to be rank order in areas of life & society, our classifications and incentive structures ought to be based on the criteria of Biblical wisdom, not the arbitrary whims of any given culture.  Verse one sets the tone of the chapter which is followed by knowledge that those who embrace discipline will appreciate.

41 And it came to pass, that when Elizabeth heard the salutation of Mary, the infant leaped in her womb. And Elizabeth was filled with the Holy Ghost:Et factum est, ut audivit salutationem Mariae Elisabeth, exsultavit infans in utero ejus : et repleta est Spiritu Sancto Elisabeth : 42 And she cried out with a loud voice, and said: Blessed art thou among women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb.et exclamavit voce magna, et dixit : Benedicta tu inter mulieres, et benedictus fructus ventris tui. 43 And whence is this to me, that the mother of my Lord should come to me?Et unde hoc mihi, ut veniat mater Domini mei ad me? 44 For behold as soon as the voice of thy salutation sounded in my ears, the infant in my womb leaped for joy.Ecce enim ut facta est vox salutationis tuae in auribus meis, exsultavit in gaudio infans in utero meo. 45 And blessed art thou that hast believed, because those things shall be accomplished that were spoken to thee by the Lord.Et beata, quae credidisti, quoniam perficientur ea, quae dicta sunt tibi a Domino. 46 And Mary said: My soul doth magnify the Lord.Et ait Maria : Magnificat anima mea Dominum : 47 And my spirit hath rejoiced in God my Saviour.et exsultavit spiritus meus in Deo salutari meo. 48 Because he hath regarded the humility of his handmaid; for behold from henceforth all generations shall call me blessed.Quia respexit humilitatem ancillae suae : ecce enim ex hoc beatam me dicent omnes generationes,49 Because he that is mighty, hath done great things to me; and holy is his name.quia fecit mihi magna qui potens est : et sanctum nomen ejus, 50 And his mercy is from generation unto generations, to them that fear him.et misericordia ejus a progenie in progenies timentibus eum.Mary was cared for by St John for twelve years after our Lord's Ressurection. Her life was spent in helping the Apostles and in praying for the conversion of the world. On the third day after Mary's death, when the Apostles gathered around her tomb, they found it empty. The sacred body had been carried up to the celestial paradise. Jesus Himself came to conduct here thither; the whole court of heaven came to welcome with songs of triumph the Mother of the Divine Word.

 1 And when great multitudes stood about him, so that they trod one upon another, he began to say to his disciples: Beware ye of the leaven of the Pharisees, which is hypocrisy.Multis autem turbis circumstantibus, ita ut se invicem conculcarent, coepit dicere ad discipulos suos : Attendite a fermento pharisaeorum, quod est hypocrisis. 2 For there is nothing covered, that shall not be revealed: nor hidden, that shall not be known.Nihil autem opertum est, quod non reveletur : neque absconditum, quod non sciatur. 3 For whatsoever things you have spoken in darkness, shall be published in the light: and that which you have spoken in the ear in the chambers, shall be preached on the housetops.Quoniam quae in tenebris dixistis, in lumine dicentur : et quod in aurem locuti estis in cubiculis, praedicabitur in tectis. 4 And I say to you, my friends: Be not afraid of them who kill the body, and after that have no more that they can do.Dico autem vobis amicis meis : Ne terreamini ab his qui occidunt corpus, et post haec non habent amplius quid faciant. 5 But I will shew you whom you shall fear: fear ye him, who after he hath killed, hath power to cast into hell. Yea, I say to you, fear him.Ostendam autem vobis quem timeatis : timete eum qui, postquam occiderit, habet potestatem mittere in gehennam : ita dico vobis, hunc timete. 6 Are not five sparrows sold for two farthings, and not one of them is forgotten before God?Nonne quinque passeres veneunt dipondio, et unus ex illis non est in oblivione coram Deo? 7 Yea, the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Fear not therefore: you are of more value than many sparrows.sed et capilli capitis vestri omnes numerati sunt. Nolite ergo timere : multis passeribus pluris estis vos. 8 And I say to you, Whosoever shall confess me before men, him shall the Son of man also confess before the angels of God.Dico autem vobis : Omnis quicumque confessus fuerit me coram hominibus, et Filius hominis confitebitur illum coram angelis Dei :Hyppolytus, guardian of St Laurence, was converted and baptised by the Saint. He was tied by the legs to wild horses. A.D. 260.St Cassian, a schoolmaster of Imola, was pierced to death by his pagan pupils, armed with styluses A.D. 320. He is the patron of stenographers.

In this sermon honoring Coram Deo's 20th birthday, Pastor Bob unpacks three aspects of a coram deo approach to gospel ministry.In 2 Corinthians 4, the Apostle Paul describes his conviction that gospel ministry is to be done "in the sight of God." This verse was one of the foundational texts behind the name of Coram Deo Church.

Again revealed in the title, Psalm 57 was also written in hiding during David's fugitive wanderings.  This occasion served to inspired David to seek the assurance of divine protection far greater than the refuge the cave in Adullam could ever provide him. I Sam 22:1-2 documents the first congregation to ever sing this song. There were gathered to him and his family in this hideout, a motley crew of those in distress, debt, and bitter of soul about 400 strong. We can imagine David singing softly with pen in hand accompanied by a waning candle, his voice and the flickering light reflecting off of ancient stone cavern walls.  Some distance away at the cave's entrance, several of his men stand guard with watchful eyes probing the distance for the dust of enemy horsemen. After repeating his new chorus several times, the cave begins to echo with hundreds of outcast voices singing: “…With my voice I cry out to the LORD; with my voice I plead for mercy to the LORD.

24 No man can serve two masters. For either he will hate the one, and love the other: or he will sustain the one, and despise the other. You cannot serve God and mammon.Nemo potest duobus dominis servire : aut enim unum odio habebit, et alterum diliget : aut unum sustinebit, et alterum contemnet. Non potestis Deo servire et mammonae. 25 Therefore I say to you, be not solicitous for your life, what you shall eat, nor for your body, what you shall put on. Is not the life more than the meat: and the body more than the raiment?Ideo dico vobis, ne solliciti sitis animae vestrae quid manducetis, neque corpori vestro quid induamini. Nonne anima plus est quam esca, et corpus plus quam vestimentum? 26 Behold the birds of the air, for they neither sow, nor do they reap, nor gather into barns: and your heavenly Father feedeth them. Are not you of much more value than they?Respicite volatilia caeli, quoniam non serunt, neque metunt, neque congregant in horrea : et Pater vester caelestis pascit illa. Nonne vos magis pluris estis illis? 27 And which of you by taking thought, can add to his stature by one cubit?Quis autem vestrum cogitans potest adjicere ad staturam suam cubitum unum? 28 And for raiment why are you solicitous? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow: they labour not, neither do they spin.Et de vestimento quid solliciti estis? Considerate lilia agri quomodo crescunt : non laborant, neque nent. 29 But I say to you, that not even Solomon in all his glory was arrayed as one of these.Dico autem vobis, quoniam nec Salomon in omni gloria sua coopertus est sicut unum ex istis. 30 And if the grass of the field, which is today, and tomorrow is cast into the oven, God doth so clothe: how much more you, O ye of little faith?Si autem foenum agri, quod hodie est, et cras in clibanum mittitur, Deus sic vestit, quanto magis vos modicae fidei? 31 Be not solicitous therefore, saying, What shall we eat: or what shall we drink, or wherewith shall we be clothed?Nolite ergo solliciti esse, dicentes : Quid manducabimus, aut quid bibemus, aut quo operiemur? 32 For after all these things do the heathens seek. For your Father knoweth that you have need of all these things.haec enim omnia gentes inquirunt. Scit enim Pater vester, quia his omnibus indigetis. 33 Seek ye therefore first the kingdom of God, and his justice, and all these things shall be added unto you.Quaerite ergo primum regnum Dei, et justitiam ejus : et haec omnia adjicientur vobis.St Cajetan founded the Order of Theatines, who endeavoured to imitate the Apostles in absolute poverty, trusting alone in the divine Providence. The "Hunter of souls" as he was called, died A.D. 1547, after a life of extraordinary austerity and mystical experiences.

This is the fifth lesson in Dr. Camden Bucey's Reformed Academy course, Defending Our Hope: An Introduction to Christian Apologetics. What does it mean to be human? This lesson explores the doctrine of man, centered on the profound reality of being created in God's image. We discover how this divine image manifests in official, formal, and ethical dimensions, shaping our knowledge, dignity, and purpose. Through the lens of covenant theology and Reformed thought, we investigate humanity's original condition, the impact of sin, and the enduring significance of bearing God's image. This foundational understanding strengthens apologetics by illuminating the connection between believers and nonbelievers, affirming that all people exist coram Deo—in the presence of God.  02:24 The Point of Contact: The Image of God 08:47 The Image of God and Sin 19:11 Narrow and Broad Senses of the Image of God 27:20 The Image of God and Human Knowledge 35:51 Summary and Conclusion  Register for this free on-demand course on our website to track your progress, download supplemental resources, and assess your understanding through quizzes for each lesson.
