Conversations from Chancellor StreetLecture | New City, New Garden with Peter LeithartMany Christians today avoid the book of Revelation because they find it too confusing. At its heart, Revelation presents visions of a journey: the martyr exodus into heaven and the exodus from the old city to the new.

In Philippians 2:17-18, Paul teaches us that the Christian can be glad and rejoice even in the most toilsome work because their service is a joyful drink offering poured out to the Lord Jesus Christ, and we all share in drinking that wine with God at his table.

Em Suma: teologia em 7 minutos2. Por que a encarnação muda tudo, segundo AtanásioA encarnação não é aquela doutrina que você ganha de presente de Natal e faz a sua cabeça girar sem entender nada, nem ter nada a ver com a sua vida. Seguindo o principal pai da igreja que atuou para defendê-la, o egípcio Santo Atanásio de Alexandria (c. 328-373), vamos ver como a encarnação define como lemos a Bíblia, como somos salvos e como todo o cosmos se organiza. E tudo isso em 7 minutos.

The Garrett Ashley Mullet ShowSowing the Wind and Rebuking the WhirlwindSometimes God’s people suffer for the sake of righteousness. When that is the case, we are called to not be afraid of those who would punish righteousness from corrupt motives. Instead, we are to prioritize, and to make preparation for, answering accusers with gentleness and respect, and with a good conscience, so that those who hate our good behavior in Christ will be ashamed of themselves.
Other times, Martyn Lloyd Jones is right to call out those who claim persecution for righteousness when in actuality they have sown the wind, and are now reaping the whirlwind.

History for AtheistsConstantine and the BibleThe historical myths surrounding the emperor Constantine, his conversion to Christianity and the claim he created the Bible at the Council of Nicaea are persistent and continue to be propagated in popular culture, despite being total nonsense. Unfortunately, leading atheists also perpetuate these silly ideas, with everyone from Richard Dawkins to Joe Rogan insisting that Constantine was not really a Christian, that he pretended to convert for political reasons and that it was he who set the canon of the New Testament. It is a sad testament to the poverty of these atheists’ historical knowledge that their understanding is st...
