Planned From All Eternity

"The ultimate fulfillment of God's mercy in Jesus is not something that is supplied in time to correct a default in the system, but is something that is planned from all of eternity."
-Alistair Begg

Read Through the Bible in 2010

The new year is just about upon us and many of us are making a renewed effort to read daily through the Bible in a systematic fashion. One of the most well known plans is the McCheyne Bible reading plan. The McCheyne Bible reading plan allows you to read through the Old Testament once and the New Testament and Psalms twice in a year. You can view and print it out here. 

You can also read from this plan online from the ESV Bible here. Simply pick the day's date and all of the passages for that day are gathered onto one page.

Speaking of the ESV, I have an exciting giveaway prepared for January. Mrs. Leiter has provided 3 compact  leather bound ESV Bibles that will go to 3 readers of this blog. Be on the lookout for that.

The Judge is the Savior

"The Gospel is the good news that God has made righteousness available to sinful men through Christ. But the Gospel is also the declaration of the fact that men will be judged by the One through Whom that grace has been made available. There we see the finality of the Gospel message. The Saviour is to be the judge. Let us put that in another way. The judge is the Savior.

He Whose eternal right it is to sit as judge of men has in His Son provided perfect redemption for men. By so doing He has not relinquished His right as judge, but has established it. If men refuse His salvation, the justice of His sentence against them cannot be called in question. All men must meet Him as judge, but before they do so He comes to meet them with a righteous and just way of saving them from their sins. If they refuse that salvation, the Gospel declares that by so doing they have not escaped Him as judge.

The Gospel never lowers the standards of Divine requirements. It makes them possible of realization. If it be refused, then the Saviour as judge condemns and punishes."

-G. Campbell Morgan

Calling Sinners

"Jesus does not speak mainly to create controversy. He speaks to call sinners to himself, and to humble the proud, and to glorify his Father. This is why he lived. This is why he died. This is why he rose again. Come to him. Be satisfied in him. Be humbled by him. Give glory to God because of him. Amen."

-John Piper, Skeptical Grumbling and Sovereign Grace
