I finished this book, (A Scottish Christian heritage) by Murray yesterday. It was very good over all. Though as I also said, he seemed to use the good stuff...
This is just a FYI, as actually it seems to be a trend that at my puritan at heart site most of the subscribers are pastors, and men of God, but this is just...
I'm not sure if James may have posted this before; one can't recall for certain every single post at a group. But if its a repeat than sorry; but newer members...
I'm not talking about commentaries but application books I guess. Does anyone know of any work which deals specifically with the verse Romans' 12:2 And be not...
We seem to discuss books and reading material a fair bit at this group. I recently (after hearing Jerry exhort it so much) got hold of Thomas Chalmers, Sabbath...
I don't know what weather is like in certain American states generally; (nor Canada either). Except more than one person has told me that Seattle, WA, has...
... and government must be regulated by the Bible. Tim-Agreed. The difference between us is to what extent the bible does so. The Westminster Assembly produced...
Some theonomists I have come into contact with in the past, (away from this group) have insisted that Calvin did not hold to the RPW, along with many other...

... I thought it was pretty clear, but that doesn't mean I was. Basically, a libertarian holds that you have the right to do whatever you want as long as it...
... It may well have been to everyone else. That's not accounting for me and my brain tho!! [B-)] But thanks, this was interesting to read, and also...
As a footnote to this, John Calvin also wrote, and is obviously pointing to it being a Popish practice: Musical instruments in celebrating the praises of God...
Well, I voted to our current practice in our home. In our New Testament readings in the evening, we read a small portion of Scripture, and then something from...
Oh! I never expected to see you here! But yep, quite right. That's why I go on these missions to get my info out there at times!! [B-)] ~Deejay ... more ...
I used to post over on a postmodern group. I took to calling myself a pre-modern, just to try and stick it to them a bit. I found this quote by Lewis today,...
I may take up your current practice!! Cos as you k now, I dont do well with reading longer stuff, as far as reading with understanding or recall. So I may...
I feel very noticably under attack from the enemy, today. For reasons I won't go into, to respect their privacy, I am more alone than usual this weekend. And...
Speaking of Zwingle: He rose early. The hours of morning he spent in prayer and the study of the Scriptures. At eight o'clock he repaired to the cathedral to ...

And also, thanks to those of you who prayed after my prayer request for protection this Lord's Day, last night. As despite being more alone, despite the devil...
