Honoring Parents

Posted on Wednesday, December 1, 2004Thursday, May 10, 2018 by Douglas Wilson

Although the message of the Fifth Commandment is clearly a message which is important for children to hear and heed, it is not a message just for children. Everyone who reads this has parents, and everyone who hears has a duty to honor them in the way the Bible describes. “Honor your father and your …

Trailer Committee

Posted on Tuesday, November 30, 2004Tuesday, June 25, 2013 by Douglas Wilson

A few days ago, I mentioned Guy Waters’ book on the New Perspective on Paul, and did not heap scorn upon it. Rather, I commended it, all but the last eight pages, which really were unfortunate. When I wrote that review, I did not know that Guy Waters was on the committee for Mississippi Valley …

Horton and Wilson

Posted on Tuesday, November 30, 2004Tuesday, June 25, 2013 by Douglas Wilson

Yesterday I had a very productive conversation with Michael Horton, arranged by the good folks at St. Anne’s Pub, an audio journal. The proceedings were of course taped, and will be available from them in a week or so. While you are there, please check out the other things being done by that most valuable …

Lift Up Your Heads/Psalm 24

Posted on Monday, November 29, 2004Monday, April 9, 2018 by Douglas Wilson

The psalter contains all of human experience. In Psalm 22 we saw faith in agony and conflict. In Psalm 23, we saw pastoral peace and trust. Here in the 24th Psalm, we see the majesty of triumph. “The earth is the LORD’S, and the fulness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein. For he …

Grace to God

Posted on Sunday, November 28, 2004Monday, April 9, 2018 by Douglas Wilson

God of our Fathers, we lift up grace, blessing, and praise to You. We know that we can offer nothing to You that is not being offered back to You, and yet You summon us to this, and delight in us as we offer as gifts to You that which we received as gifts from …

Calendar and Story

Posted on Sunday, November 28, 2004Monday, April 9, 2018 by Douglas Wilson

This is the first Lord’s Day of Advent, the beginning of the church calendar year. One of the most important things we can learn in our celebration of this is the foundational truth that calendars are not silent—calendars always tell a story. Now just because a calendar tells a different story from ours does not …

The Empty Chair

Posted on Sunday, November 28, 2004Wednesday, April 11, 2018 by Douglas Wilson

In their celebration of Passover, the Jews keep an empty chair for Elijah, the forerunner of the Messiah. As Christians, we confess that both Elijah and the Messiah have come, and we mark that coming in faith by our participation here, at this table. And so, in a very real sense, this table has no …

If the Federal Vision Were a Beer

Posted on Friday, November 26, 2004Tuesday, June 25, 2013 by Douglas Wilson

My friend Cal Beisner sent me a copy of a new P & R book, which I just finished reading this morning. The book was entitled Justification and the New Perspectives on Paul, so guess what it was about. Overall I would rate it as a very fine book, one that I highly recommend, but …

Thanks Be to God

Posted on Thursday, November 25, 2004Wednesday, April 11, 2018 by Douglas Wilson

Here it is, Thanksgiving 2004. We need to start taking this holiday as one that is fundamentally apologetic in nature. I am using “apologetic” in the sense of “defending and articulating the faith,” and not in the “so sorry” sense. In the first chapter of Romans, St. Paul argues that the heart of unbelief naturally …

Shadowlands

Posted on Sunday, November 21, 2004Wednesday, April 11, 2018 by Douglas Wilson

God of all deliverance and salvation, our lives are a mist and shadow, and then we pass away. All flesh is grass, and we wither and die. And yet, in Your great wisdom, according to Your Word, which does not wither and die, You have set eternity in our hearts. You have made us in …
