Done with My Blog Consolidation Project

-

In consolidating my blogs, the two most difficult blogs to consolidate are To God be the Glory and Trinity Covenant Church.  Not only because of the number of articles or the many useful links I posted there, but as I review the articles, I could not remember that I wrote some of them. Take for instance The Book and The Preachers, the article I published in May 2013, I could not recall writing its content. As I review it, the ideas appear strange to me. 

I also find in To God Be The Glory some articles that are still very useful. In fact, the cause that triggered me to consolidate my blogs is due to frustration in finding an article that I wrote in the past. We were discussing that time a topic related to the law and then I was reminded of an article I wrote about the three uses of the law. After spending some time browsing all my blogs, still I could not find it. And the benefit in consolidating a blog is like setting your room in order and while doing it, unexpectedly you stumble with something worthwhile that you took for granted in the past. And that's exactly what happened when I am almost done with this consolidation thing. At last, I found that article I have been looking for, The Three Uses of the Law. It never crossed my mind that among my 29 blogs, it is here that I posted it. I am also glad to find that my Eschatology of Victory paper is also here and so is the article on the eight necessary qualifications to understand the continuing validity of God's law. 

Shifting to Trinity Covenant Church, I am happy to see articles that I think are still useful and I can incorporate them in my lectures in Theology and in Church and Society. Trinity, The Apostle's Creed and True Wisdom for instance can be included in Theology 1. A Reformed Christian Social Consciousness and Christianity's Response can be added into my course on Church and Society. Confusing Voices and articles on Happy Marriage are helpful too. Lastly, I think the most helpful are those articles I published about Greg Bahnsen's book, By This Standard. I posted a total of 13 articles based on my reading of that book from January to March 2014. It was just sad that I was not able to complete that project. Nevertheless, finishing this consolidation project of all my blogs that started last 30 May 2020, more or less three months, I now feel free at last.

Five Precepts of the Modern Mind

-
While doing my devotion this morning, I stumbled with an interesting section in the book  Thinking. Loving. Doing. A Call to Glorify God with Heart and Mind. I am now on the 2nd chapter. I am reading the article written by R. Albert Mohler Jr., The Way the World Thinks: Meeting the Natural Mind in the Mirror and in the Marketplace. I just want to share that interesting section on pages 61 to 62.   Here is its excerpt: In order to understand better the modern mind, consider these five precepts. First, the modern mind is characterized by postmodern anti-realism. There are people in American society who are not sure that what we are talking about is even real. They argue that the terms of morality—statements about what is right and wrong—are merely a language game. The second precept is moral relativism . Although most of the people we know do not actually hold to anti-realism, it has filtered down into the culture as moral relativism. Most unregenerate Americans today are...

The Special Duties of Husbands to their Wives

-
Fulfill your duties to your wife in order to avoid the following unhappy results: Failure of your wife to fulfill her duties towards you Such will cause you much affliction She will be bitter towards you in the end Summary of your Duties as Christian Husbands: You are responsible to undertake the government of your family including your wife. This ability consists: In holiness and spiritual wisdom. An ungodly, irreligious man is both a stranger and an enemy to the most important part of family-government. In due acquaintance with the works of your calling. He that is utterly unacquainted with the members of his family, will be very unfit to govern them. He must be acquainted both with the common temper and infirmities of mankind, that he may know how much is to be borne with, and also with the particular temper, and faults, and virtues of those whom he is to govern. And he must have prudence to give them direction in accomplishing their tasks; and justice to deal with every one as they...

No One is Above the Law

-
No one is above the law, and that includes even the government. If you see a government violating the moral law, what do you think will happen? Will the Supreme Lawgiver keep silent as His law is being trampled by human governments? One example of such violation is now being done by the government of Australia by moving hard left . The policymakers are either blinded by their ideology or they intentionally take for granted the long-term destructive consequences of such tax policy. They are not aware that by violating God’s law on private property, they are actually committing economic suicide. How many governments in the world are following the same course? May God forbid that the Philippine government will choose the same path!
