Today’s devotional and study is from the Colson Center for Christian Worldview. I have used their materials often because I agree with their view most of the time. Today is no exception. While this article focuses on the importance of Creeds, I think it could be expanded to include Catechisms and Confessions as well. Why … More Devotion/Study – “THREE C’s” – 01/22/2026
COMMENT I have often written on the subjects of “Christians and Their Duty to Government” and “Government and Its Duty to the People.” The preface to today’s article states: Romans 13 isn’t a slogan or a scare tactic; it’s a doctrine. David Mitzenmacher offers a confessional response to recent misuse and misunderstanding of civil authority. … More Covenental Look at “Romans 13” – 01/20/2026
COMMENT The actual title of today’s devotion from the BCL Newsletter is Pietism vs. Piety — What’s the Difference? I must admit that, somewhere in my mind, tucked away in a place likely never to be recovered, I had heard of Pietism before, but this study opened my eyes to another facet of Christianity and … More Devotional – Experience vs. Holiness – 01/14/2026
I never thought, 20 or so years ago, when I first read some of Edwards’ works, that I would have much in common with him.

GENESIS 3 COMMENTS As 2025 comes to a close, I think it is a good reminder to reflect on our failures as men and women to do good consistently. This is not a condemnation, a judgment, but an observation that holds true for me as well as for the rest of mankind. To understand today’s … More Study -All Sin all the Time – 12/31/2025
We must be exceptionally careful in the matter of comparing Scripture with Scripture. The Bible never contradicts itself. We must never base our doctrine upon one statement only; or to put it in another way, our doctrine must never be so formulated as to be in conflict with any other statement of Scripture or to … More Friday Feature Quote – “Why Doctrine Matters” – 12/26/2025
PREFACE I seem to be reading a lot about God’s Law. In a previous post, “Death of the Law,” the focus was on those who deny that God’s law is relevant today. Today’s devotional will examine Romans 7:7-12, focusing on the Misuse of God’s Law. There are many ways one can misuse or abuse God’s … More Friday Feature Quote -“Misuse of God’s Law” – 12/12/2025
