God is unjust?!

So I was listening to Dr. Frank Turek’s podcast the other day, and he mentioned how so many atheists and skeptics complain about how God ordered the execution of every man, woman, and child in Canaan when the Israelites moved in to take their Promised Land. Frank gave a good explanation, and mentioned a book I’ve often recommended by Dr. Paul Copan titled, “Is God a Moral Monster?” He also mentioned another professor he’d had on his show before, a Dr. Clay Jones, who has a different view than Copan. So when I got home, I looked up Clay Jones and found a video teaching of his on YouTube, in which he gave his explanation why it wasn’t immoral of God to bring judgment on the Canaanites.

The Beautiful Garments of Salvation

Ps. 149:4 For the Lord takes pleasure in His people; He will beautify the humble with salvation. NKJV

Is. 61:10 I delight greatly in the Lord; my soul rejoices in my God. For he has clothed me with garments of salvation and arrayed me in a robe of righteousness, as a bridegroom adorns his head like a priest, and as a bride adorns herself with her jewels. (NIV)

Gotta put some thoughts down to share with anyone who cares to read 'em, or maybe just so I make sure I process and remember myself. I really read some great things this week about the Reformation...

It happened in a Mexican prison

Ok, some time back I wrote about some of my worst ministry experiences. Today as I was out for a bike ride, it occurred to me that I’d better also write about some of the best ones, just to balance things out. Let me share with you some great experiences I’ve had over the years. I want to share these things, not to glorify myself, but to thank and glorify God for the privilege of being used by Him, and experiencing His power working through me.
