Cure for the Modern Cynic: Psalm 103
http://cyniccure.blogspot.com/2015/07/psalm-103.html
Cure for the Modern Cynic. Sunday, July 26, 2015. The watch says I have five minutes. We were in Psalm 103 today in church—a rare appearance by the associate pastor in the pulpit. There is a lot. In the Psalm, one of my favorites. I can only concentrate in these limited moments on the uses of the law (how it pains me to pass by the first five verses! Ray Ortlund talks about four different applications. The lesson of the Old Testament is just this. The promise is hidden a bit in the eschatological command...

Cure for the Modern Cynic: April 2012
http://cyniccure.blogspot.com/2012_04_01_archive.html
Cure for the Modern Cynic. Thursday, April 19, 2012. My God is bigger than your god. And other gleanings from Numbers. Really, if we're honest, from the whole Old Testament. It seems foolish to us today, but the territorial dominance of deities was not an insignificant part of life in the days of Moses. The theme wends its way well past him, too. The Assyrians tell Hezekiah that Yahweh cannot save them from the power of their empire:. Where are the gods of Hamath and Arpad? 2Ki 18.33–35). The same sort o...

Cure for the Modern Cynic. Friday, November 30, 2012. Scientists have confirmed that Mercury is home to gobs and gobs of water ice. I found this interesting in the linked article:. The surprise that we received on making the first chemical measurements of Mercury was that none of the theories for how Mercury was assembled are correct. Again and again we need to be reminded that science begins with observation, and it's refined by improving our observations. Thursday, November 29, 2012. That metaphysical ...

I’ve been working on a post on Rev. 13:16-18 and in doing some commentary diving, was struck by Greg Beale’s commentary on Rev. 13:11.
