PRAYING FOR MY BELOVED CRC MEMBERS & CALVIN COLLEGE et al to NOT ACQUIESCE TO FAR-LEFT LIBERALISM TO TRY TO BE ‘COOL’:

JESUS SAID: “I pray not that thou should take them out of the world, but that thou should keep them from the evil. They are not of the world, even as I am not of the world. Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth.

As thou hast sent me into the world, even so have I also sent them into the world.

And for their sakes ..."

i just found this video of PAUL SCHRADER talking at Fuller Sem re "First Reformed" (his latest movie) (for what it's worth)

(I usually take note of Schrader because he's from my same "tradition" ie the CRC, GR Christian High, Calvin College, et al, although i don't always find his films so edifying..sometimes he seems anti-Christian, and for a while seemed to suggest he had lost his faith..more recently I'm not so sure..from what I've heard about 1st Reformed it also is sort of cynical about church.. but I haven't seen it personally.. )

WHY R (some) CRC PASTORS SO INFATUATED w/ BEING MARRIED?

I grew up in @CRCNA & they r SO INFATUATED w/ being married. Y? I'm fine being single or married. #Doesn'tDefineMe #WasJesusMarried

"Political Pistachio: Early Thanksgiving "


"The concept of a Thanksgiving Feast is not uniquely American. The Spanish Colonies also had thanksgiving ceremonies and meals as well. The colonists in the New World, be they English, Dutch, French, Spanish, or of any other European origin, were a deeply religious people, and felt it necessary to give thanks to God for their survival, and prosperity, in their new land. The Pilgrims had plenty to be thankful for, and so theirs is the story that has been most publicized (perhaps with a little help from the 1861 push for a Thanksgiving Holiday). However, Turkey was not the dominant item on the menu, nor was many of our other traditional favorites..."

Proclamation of Thanksgiving 1863 – Abe Lincoln

"...recommend to them that while offering up the ascriptions justly due to Him for such singular deliverances and blessings, they do also, with humble penitence for our national perverseness and disobedience, commend to His tender care all those who have become widows, orphans, mourners or sufferers in the lamentable civil strife in which we are unavoidably engaged, and fervently implore the interposition of the Almighty Hand .."

BY FAITH

So people get what God promised by having faith. This happens so that the promise can be a free gift. And if the promise is a free gift, then all of Abraham's people will get that promise. The promise is not just for those who live under the Law of Moses. It is for all who live with faith as Abraham did. He is the father of us all. 17
