Quote of the Day

We are blessed to live in an age and a culture which has easy access to the Word of God.  And we are cursed to live in an age and culture which has easy access to the Word of God.  Our fathers had to internalize the Word of God.  They sang the Psalms so they would learn them...We have Bibles in every room in our homes and apps on our smart phones, but we don't hide it in our hearts.

R. C. Sproul Jr.

Quote of the Day

If you were to get up and hum a tune then you wouldn’t get anything if you had no theology. Now I can just hear a message in song, if I know the song and I know the words of it; I can get a blessing from it. But I’m not getting it from the music; I’m getting it primarily from the word that the music is seeking to proclaim. Now if music was intended to be put on the plane of the word of God, then the Lord Jesus would have come from heaven and whistled and hummed. 

S. Lewis Johnson

Quote of the Day

A mighty bulwark is our God

A doughty ward and weapon.

He helps us clear from every rod

By which we now are smitten.

Still our ancient foe

Girds him to strike a blow.

Might and guile his gear,

His armor striketh fear

 On earth is not his equal.

By our own strength is nothing won.

We court at once disaster.

There fights for us the Champion

 Whom God has named our Master.

Would you know his name?

Jesus Christ the same

Lord Sabaoth is he.

No other God can be.

The field is his to hold it.

And though the fiends on every hand

Were threatening to devour us,

We would not waver from our stand.

They cannot overpower us.

This world’s prince may rave.

However he behave,

He can do no ill.

God’s truth abideth still.

One little word shall fell him.

That word they never can dismay,

 However much they batter,

For God himself is in the fray

And nothing else can matter.

Then let them take our life,

Goods, honor, children, wife.

We will let all go.

They shall not conquer so,

 For God will win the battle

 

Martin Luther

Quote of the Day

My song shall bless the Lord of all,

My praise shall climb to His abode;

Thee, Savior, by that name I call,

The great Supreme, the mighty God.

Without beginning, or decline,

Object of faith, and not of sense;

Eternal ages saw Him shine,

He shines eternal ages hence.

As much, when in the manger laid,

Almighty Ruler of the sky;

As when the six days’ works He made,

Filled all the morning-stars with joy.

A cheerful confidence I feel,

My well-placed hopes with joy I see;

My bosom glows with heav’nly zeal

To worship Him Who died for me.

As man, He pities my complaint,

His pow’r and truth are all divine;

He will not fail, He cannot faint,

Salvation’s sure, and must be mine.

 

William Cowper

My song shall bless the Lord of all.
My praise shall climb to his abode ;
Thee, Saviour, by that name I call,
The great Supreme, the mighty God.

 Without beginning or decline,
Object of faith, and not of sense ;
Eternal ages saw him shine,
He shines eternal ages hence.

 As much, when in the manger laid,
Almighty ruler of the sky,
As when the six days' work he  made
Fill'd all the morning stars with joy.

 A cheerful confidence I feel,
My well-placed hopes with joy I see ;
My bosom glows with heavenly zeal,
To worship Him who died for me.

 As Man, he pities my complaint,
His power and truth are all divine ;
He will not fail, he cannot faint ;
Salvation's sure, and must be mine.
