God Never Forgets His Promises
from Derek Thomas Aug 08, 2018 Category: Articles
The entire life of Joseph is summarized in Genesis 50:20: “As for you, you meant evil against me, but God meant it for good.” The teenager we met at the beginning of the story is now over a hundred years old. His life has come full circle, and he is addressing his duplicitous brothers. Their actions, in selling him into slavery, had nothing but evil intent written all over it. Their malevolence can in no way be lessened by the knowledge that things did not turn out as they might have done. Truth is, God overruled their evil actions to accomplish a purpose that neither they nor Joseph could have fathomed. God brought good out of evil. In the words of the Westminster Confession, God in His providence “upholds, directs, disposes and governs all creatures, actions and things” to bring about a sovereignly pre-determined plan (5.1).

The gospel can never be a side issue in our lives, for it is the power of God unto salvation (Rom. 1:16–17). If we lose the gospel, we lose everything. What excites me about Ligonier Ministries is its passion for the gospel and for helping people know the gospel.

The Holy Spirit’s Ministry
from Sinclair Ferguson Aug 06, 2018 Category: Articles
The Reformers placed tremendous stress on the gifts of the Spirit to the whole body of Christ. John Calvin himself has rightly been described as “the theologian of the Holy Spirit” (B.B. Warfield). Yet Reformed Christians always have been given a “bad press” for their views on the gifts of the Holy Spirit.
