Barnhouse on the Love of God

Posted on July 27, 2015 Written by Mark McIntyre 1 Comment

Barnhouse Romans Commentary

The Weight of Glory

What is that to you? – A lesson from C. S. Lewis

C. S. Lewis provides a question to help us to know our boundaries and learn when to rely on God to handle a difficult situation. That question is, “what is that to you?”

Amazed

Why are you amazed?

I can read about miracles in the Bible and not be amazed. The flannel graph presentations of my youth have made the stories so familiar that too often I do not connect with how radical the events actually were. This healing should amaze me but its familiarity masks how marvelous it really is.

On giving offense

Nowhere can you find Jesus indicating that ideas don’t matter and any belief is acceptable as long as it is firmly held. On every page of the gospel accounts, Jesus says something that is deemed intolerant by our society.

G. K. Chesterton

Chesterton on original sin

The LORD and the LORD alone is my shepherd

Human leaders will fail us, no matter how good their intentions. Psalm 23 reminds us that God alone is the shepherd that will care for us no matter what.
