There's so much good writing on the Internet each week. Here's some I found:
Opposition is Bad, but Hell is Worse, HT to Challies. "In the early centuries of Christianity, the Church understood that a false understanding of salvation was more dangerous than persecution. Persecution can only kill the body, but a false gospel can kill the soul. Today, many live as if political evils are worse than hell."
How Do You Forgive the Unpardonable? Debbie covers several good aspects of this question.
Store Up Today for Tomorrow's Crisis, HT to Challies. "The real application of Jesus's saying lies further back. To take his words to heart, our focus should be not so much on what we should say as what we should store. To apply Jesus's insight, if we want to be the kind of person who speaks words of wisdom and grace, then we have to begin by storing up wisdom and grace."
The Funny Thing About Hope, HT to Challies. "Hope is a crazy thing. Without hope, life becomes very hard and difficult. With hope, people manage stress, pressures, and tough circumstances better. Yet, when in tough circumstances, one of the easiest things to lose is hope. When hope is lost, the circumstances only grow in magnitude. At this point, the tendency is downward. Light easily turns to darkness. Joy turns to sorrow. Stability turns to anxiety. Confidence turns to fear."
A Response to an Employer's Request for Pronouns, HT to Challies.
An Open Letter to My High School Self, HT to the Story Warren. I did something similar several years ago: Dear Me in 1973.
