John Knox's 'Ordinance of Grace', later today

I have this great quote from TFT on John Knox, and his ‘ordinance of grace’; and how Knox saw all of salvation history saturated by this ‘ordinance’. It is a beautiful quote, and highlights what Knox thought of God’s immutability; he clearly believed in it, but not in the typical Thomistic/medieval static terms that so many before him had conceived. I’ll share this tomorrow . . . too late now!

  1. Hey, he can’t do that πŸ˜‰ !

    I’ll have to do a post in response, not that many are reading πŸ™‚ anymore — that’s okay . . . I write for the Lord primarily πŸ˜‰ .

  2. Hey Bobby!

    Maybe you should apply for a trademark for “Evangelical Calvinist”. You’ve owned it as long as I’ve known you, which in human years is a short time, but in dog years….

    Oh, yeah! And if one’s spiritual life is measured in the long spans of time wherein little growth occurs, vis a vis times of growth spurts, these past 8 or 9 months have been epoch for me, compared to the last 10 years, and maybe for you as well. I think I said that right….

    Anyhow, trademark it!

    Yeah, this season is causing me and my family to grow in ways that I never thought possible; or at least in areas yet unexplored in my faith (as far as the pressure and fire this season has produced). I hope to come out of this season looking more like Christ; I’m sure that’s what the LORD is doing here (cf. I Pet. 1).

  4. And I’m very encouraged that you are experiencing a growth spurt too, Daune!
