Not only the gospel, but also…

Posted on October 5, 2023October 6, 2023 by Norm

“We modern teachers from the West are by nature and by training persons of restless activity and boundless self-confidence. We tend to assume an attitude of superiority towards all Eastern peoples and point to our material progress as the justification of our attitude. “We are accustomed to doing things for ourselves, to finding our own…

John Calvin and the light of truth

Posted on September 28, 2023September 28, 2023 by Norm

“Whenever, therefore, we meet with heathen writers, let us learn from that light of truth which is admirably displayed in their works, that the human mind, fallen as it is, and corrupted from its integrity, is yet invested and adorned by God with excellent talents. If we believe that the Spirit of God is the…

“Sin has corrupted everything. Our relationships, our behaviors, our identities, and our understanding. We get things wrong, all the time. Maybe we’re especially prone to getting things wrong when we are most certain that we are getting things right.” (Kristin Du Mez)

Temptations to which I am not exposed!

Posted on July 13, 2021July 13, 2021 by Norm

“Ever since I served as an infantryman in the First World War I have had a great dislike of people who, themselves in ease and safety, issue exhortations to men in the front line. As a result I have a reluctance to say much about the temptations to which I am not exposed…. I did…

Backward Christian Soldiers?

Posted on May 23, 2021May 22, 2021 by Norm
