Growing in Grace- Links 10/20

Posted on October 20, 2018 by James Williams

From the blog this week: ‘The Ten Commandments’- A Book Review

How to Worship God in Vain

“You can say things. You can go to worship services. You can raise your hands, but you cannot hallow his name because your heart is in another place. ‘Where your treasure is, there your heart will be also’ (Matthew 6:21).”

The State of Theology

The latest survey of the state of theology in America. Some results are encouraging, while many are not. Just another reminder that our churches need to be teaching doctrine to the people.

5 Myths about Calvinism

Crossway is doing a “5 Myths” series that is very helpful and I’d encourage you to check it out. They’ve covered marriage, depression, evangelism, seminary, Luther, hospitality, friendship, science, and counseling.

Four Reasons You Should Be a Member of Your Church

“One person wonders, ‘Isn’t that just a formality? I mean, I’m here every week, I’m in a small group, I give…Why fill out an application, take a class, and meet with a pastor only to keep doing the things I’m already doing?'”

The Resurrection. Reality or Hoax? Part 1: Examining Objections From Skeptics

“Considering the array of information and evidence which exists, the best may still be the resurrection. It sounds like lunacy at first because people just do not arise from the dead do they? However, when the evidence is compiled and the proverbial dust settles there is great assurance the resurrection was not a hoax, hallucination, or a lie, but it was, in fact, a real historical event. This paper will seek to examine the best case for the resurrection as well as answer objections.” Also see Part 2.

Sports and the Christian Family

“Sports are a good gift from God. Like all good gifts, there is a danger to place the gift over the giver or to want the gift more than the giver. It happens with sports, with music, with academics, with vocation, with sex, and the Bible is clear that this is idolatry.”

Many well-meaning Bible reading plans have derailed in Leviticus. Why does Leviticus feels tedious to us?
