22. Did all mankind fall in that first transgression? The covenant being made with Adam, as a public person, not for himself only, but for his posterity; all mankind descending from him by ordinary generation, sinned in him, and fell with him in that first transgression.

Men, what scripture, songs, or books are you leading your family through this holy week?

21. Did man continue in that estate wherein God at first created him? Our first parents being left to the freedom of their own will, through the temptation of Satan, transgressed the commandment of God, in eating the forbidden fruit, and thereby fell from the estate of innocency wherein they were created.

@merelyjwright I think @DemarsSean had a TGC around this. I'm historically a UFC fan but felt some weirdness about it and his argument there resonated with me

A clip of this came through my feed & my stomach turned. I'm not sure anything signals the degeneracy of our culture moreso than televising women beating on each other. It is sick. Shockingly sick.

20. What was the providence of God toward man in the estate in which he was created? The providence of God toward man in the estate in which he was created, was the placing him in paradise, appointing him to dress it, giving him liberty to eat of the fruit of the earth; putting the creatures under his dominion, and ordaining marriage for his help; affording him communion with Himself; instituting the Sabbath; entering into a covenant of life with him, upon condition of personal, perfect, and perpetual obedience, of which the tree of life was a pledge; and forbidding to eat of the tree of knowledge of good and evil, upon the pain of death.

19. What is God’s providence toward the angels? God by his providence permitted some of the angels, willfully and irrecoverably, to fall into sin and damnation, limiting and ordering that, and all their sins, to his own glory; and established the rest in holiness and happiness; employing them all, at his pleasure, in the administrations of his power, mercy, and justice.

18. What are God’s works of providence? God’s works of providence are his most holy, wise, and powerful preserving, and governing all his creatures; ordering them, and all their actions, to his own glory.

17. How did God create man? After God had made all other creatures, he created man, male and female; formed the body of the man of the dust of the ground, and the woman of the rib of the man; endued them with living, reasonable, and immortal souls; made them after his own image, in knowledge, righteousness and holiness, having the law of God written in their hearts and power to fulfill it, with dominion over the creatures; yet subject to fall.

16. How did God create angels? God created all the angels spirits, immortal, holy, excelling in knowledge, mighty in power, to execute his commandments, and to praise his name, yet subject to change.

@RobbBrunansky A practical step toward "choose to remember, refuse to forget"

I started a detailed log of prayer requests and answers at the start of 2024. I am now up to 113 specific prayer requests that God has answered in just over two years. It comes out to about 1 answered prayer request per week. It's amazing to see how God hears and answers prayer!

@_MattBear @RHB_Books Beeke needs to release "How to Lead Your Bank Account" next

I’m adding @RHB_Books as a dependent on my taxes for all the money I give them

@its_The_Dr Look at that form though...

Do you think this was Realistic? 😂🤣

@banneroftruth I put my books into a closet... don't feel stressed about the ones I haven't read yet now. Ready to get some more at a conference this week!

Often what we need is not more books, but the will and strategy to read well the ones that we have. This week on the podcast we consider ℎ𝑜𝑤 𝑡𝑜 𝑝𝑟𝑒𝑝𝑎𝑟𝑒 𝑎𝑛 𝑎𝑠𝑠𝑎𝑢𝑙𝑡 𝑜𝑛 𝑜𝑢𝑟 𝑢𝑛𝑟𝑒𝑎𝑑 𝑏𝑜𝑜𝑘𝑠: 🎧: ow.ly/nMYO50YuQNA

@JohnGoldman I do love sardines... But this was my Chili Lime tuna haul this weekend. This is my favorite right now

I’m on my canned mackerel, sardines, salmon kick. The macros are insane. The nutrients are dense. And each can costs about the same as a processed protein bar. Anyone have brands they like?

@FinFreedom414 Even on my worst days with my family, option B 1,000%. You could even take away the $1M

Imagine you had to choose your life at age 40: Option A: Single. No kids. $10M net worth. Travel anywhere. Total freedom. Quiet house. Quiet holidays. Option B: Married. 3 kids. $1M net worth. Drive a Toyota. Chaos every morning. Loud house. Full dinner table. Be honest, which life are you choosing?
