Who is Good? (BC 1; Luke 19:17)

We finish studying Belgic Confession Article 1: The Nature of God. We are created good but we fall short of God's perfect goodness since we are sinners. Christ points out that only God is truly good, highlighting our need to live more in line with His kingdom.

The Peace of God’s Justice (Malachi 3:13-4:3)

At this point in our Malachi we might wonder if there are any faithful people. Has the Lord forgotten His people? Has the Lord failed to keep a remnant for himself? The Lord gives the assurance that the upside is that the Lord remembers His promise. So, what is the peace of knowing that God remembers His justice?

Our Unchangeable God (Malachi 3:6-12)

The Lord is the one who watches over His people, but his people have not returned the favor.  Their passion, their love, and their conviction have grown soft towards the Lord.  So, how is the Lord going to deal with this?  Will the Lord give his people what they deserve?

Sojourning Under the Sun: Sabbath Conforming: Self Examination (Matthew 7:13-29)

We conclude Christ’s sermon on the mount.  Christ is laying out an ethic that we are called to follow as a people set apart unto the Lord.  Do we just say that these laws are difficult so we can ignore them?  Do we more purposefully set out to obey these laws in our strength?  What are we to do with this challenging sermon that is set before us?
