Abraham Booth: For if you read and study chiefly that you may cut a respectable figure in the pulpit, or to obtain and increase popular applause, the motive is carnal, base, and unworthy a man of God. (Pastoral Cautions)

@dgh5391 I've enjoyed diving back into the subject in preparation for PBTS.

@CWJohnson01 Very nice. Fascinating subject matter. I love reading about it.

My PBTS paper is on Keach and his connection to the radical millenarians, the theme for this meeting is Chalcedonian Christology, I include the word Christology (one time) in a list, does that count towards the theme of the meeting?

@richbarcellos Same here.

@CWJohnson01 I am. Looking forward to meeting you.

Who is planning to attend the Particular Baptist Theological Society meeting this year?

Thrilled to turn in my next book manuscript today! Heaven and the Things Above: Understanding the Past, Present, and Future of the Intermediate State. Coming in 2027 from @ReadBakerBooks.

@orenrmartin @mike_reeves Amen to that!

Out of sheer and boundless love for his Bride, Christ took her sickness upon himself, with all the consequences of her sin. He took her ugliness that she might have his loveliness. @mike_reeves

@RScottClark But what about that spin move to steal the ball from Bird? That was impressive.

By the book.

@dgh5391 Not technical, but one of my favorites.

Immensely helpful commentary

Just finished To Gaze Upon God by Samuel Parkison. Highly recommend that you read this book!

all the fullness of God is pleased to dwell in him, so our increasing delight in God's essence is an increasing delight in the Son who is forever hypostatically united to human nature. (To Gaze Upon God)

Samuel Parkison: This vision [i.e., the beatific vision] never moves beyond the person of Christ, because the person of Christ never ceases to be Emmanuel; 1/2

(The Covenant and Baptism, PBHB) 4/4

I have already stated. that the children of believers enjoy very great advantages over others in the instruction they receive, and the example they witness, and we see many among them brought to the knowledge of the truth: but surely this is no reason for baptizing them... 3/4

James Haldane: If believers use proper means with their children, they have the same (I might say greater) encouragement than that given of old to Timothy to make him diligent, 1/4
