How doth Christ execute the office of a king?
Christ executeth the office of a king, in subduing us to himself, in ruling and defending us, and in restraining and conquering all his and our enemies.
As a rule, I don’t talk deeper theological points with people unless they can tell me where they are members of a church. If you aren’t a member attending weekly worship there is no point in discussing the Nephilim with you. Go to church and sit under the word.
5YO - Dad
Dad - Yes
5YO - I’ve been to church so much it feels like home.
Dad - Praise the Lord, he is faithful.
Acts 2:39
For the promise is for you and for your children and for all who are far off, everyone whom the Lord our God calls to himself.”
Always carry a knife, today while driving in a rainstorm a vehicle hydroplaned, crashed and shot across 3 lanes of traffic. I braked heavily and avoided collision, stopped and checked in driver. Thankfully no injuries, however, my knife was used to remove side airbag for exit.
Pastor reads Isaiah 39. He completes the reading. My son’s first question is an immediate question, “Dad, what is a eunuch?”
A man who has been castrated. Remember how we turned the bulls into steers……

May the floorboards become warped under the font from the pouring out of the water of baptisms becoming a reminder of God’s covenant of grace to us and our children.
First time since February 11th we are all healthy and headed to church together.
Psalm 122:1
I was glad when they said unto me, Let us go into the house of the LORD.
Man my happy live tweeting event went scary on me. Thank you all for your prayers and kind comments. Isaac is doing great and now sleeping after eating. And Jamie is slowly recovering and resting. Praise the Lord from whom all blessings flow.
For about the last month this has been my 2YO preferred book before nap. Thanks
@BannerofTruth
for a wonderful children’s series of biographical picture books.
Parents as you leave for Lord’s Day worship and prepare for a quasi rodeo in the pew, rest in the supernatural work of the Holy Spirit. They are hearing, singing and seeing the Word of God. But yeah it is real tough.
WSC Q. 86. What is faith in Jesus Christ?
A. Faith in Jesus Christ is a saving grace, whereby we receive and rest upon him alone for salvation, as he is offered to us in the gospel.
So we sit on the back patio sipping whiskey, reading Henry, feeling the cool air, smelling the citronella candle and listening to birds sing while bugs get zapped.
Proud dad moment - when you hear that your 3YO was invited to a princess party and he went dressed as Hans from Frozen. You know the evil prince who tried to kill Elsa. Also he stayed in character and terrorized the young princesses.
My first child is upcoming where I will not just be presbycurious but staunchly Presbyterian and I’m excited about the covenant sign and seal to be placed upon our boy. Baptize you’re babies!
A Sunday afternoon spent with John Murray. “It is by faith and faith alone that we are justified in God’s sight. And everyone who has faith, however weak that faith may be, is just as effectively united to Christ and the righteousnesses of God…”
