Watson on God's Diocese

Conscience is God's diocese, where none has right to visit, but He who is the Bishop of our souls (1 Peter 2:25). We must not be like hot iron, which may be beaten into any form. A brave spirited Christian will rather suffer, than let his conscience be violated.
Thomas Watson, All Things For Good 8:3

Putting a Period to Alienation

The best way to produce peace between alienated minds is to bring them to the same Saviour. That will do more to silence contentions, and to heal alienations, than any or all other means. Bring people around the same cross; fill them with love to the same Redeemer, and give them the same hope of heaven, and you put a period to alienation and strife. The love of Christ is so absorbing, and the dependence in his blood so entire, that they will lay aside these alienations, and cease their contentions.
Albert Barnes on Eph 2:14

An Evening on Eschatology

On September 27, 2009, Desiring God and Bethlehem College & Seminary hosted “An Evening on Eschatology” at the Downtown Campus of Bethlehem Baptist Church in Minneapolis. It was attended by about 800 people who sat in the darkened sanctuary while six cameras were trained on the brightly lit roundtable where the four participants sat in a circle.

For two hours (John Piper) moderated, more or less, a discussion among Jim Hamilton for PRE-MIL (professor of New Testament at Southern Seminary in Louisville), Sam Storms for A-MIL (pastor of Bridgeway Church in Oklahoma City), and Doug Wilson for POST-MIL (pastor of Christ Church, Moscow, Idaho).
