Study in the 1689 Second London Baptist Confession of Faith

In Malachi, what starts as a complaint about the slowness of God's justice turns into a glorious picture of John the Baptist preparing the way as Christ returns to the temple. The people only want God's justice because they think themselves to be innocent. We know that we are spared God's judgement not because we are innocent but because Christ has taken the blow for us. When Peter reminds us that...

The way we treat other people demonstrates the way we treat God. This is especially the case in our families, where the design of our marriage is to serve as a symbol of Christ and the church. Some of the men of Israel were heartless and faithless, breaking covenant with the wives God had given them. Others of the men were marrying outside of the faith. In both cases, the foundation for producing...

At the heart of priestly ministry is the goal to see the people flourishing and living under the blessing of the Lord. This means that faithful teaching, righteous living, and genuine worship need to be practiced. There is no blessing from the Lord, no "life and peace" where careless teaching and undisciplined sin is found, or where corporate worship is nothing more than going through the motions....

Here's the charge, brothers and sisters we have a great Priest who has gone before us and shown us what it looks like to give ourselves wholeheartedly to God. He has given Himself entirely so that we could be saved; let us look to His example and not forget that we serve a great God who is worthy of all of our praise.

We do not determine the time we were born nor the family we were born into. By nature we do not belong to the people of God; faith is not hereditary. Yet God's electing love overrules our heritage and our history. Through His sovereign grace, the Father draws people like us to be part of His church - the new Israel that He is creating through His Son. The Lord is indeed great beyond the borders of...

God is sovereign, we are not. Do not forsake His promises for the burden of fear and anxiety. Christ has overcome the world and for those who are in union with Him the can claim this position of victory. Therefore, cast your cares upon the Lord; find rest for two reasons. 1. Every act of wickedness done in rebellion to God will be accounted for on judgement day. 2. Every act of evil brought to God...

The first words in the book of Ruth take us to the days of the judges. In those days, there was no king in Israel; everyone did what was right in his own eyes (Judges 21:25). The last word in the book is "David", the one who after ten generations is positioned to fill this need and restore order to God's people. This whole story of Ruth teaches us more than just lessons of duty, loyalty, obedience...

Naomi's plan was intended to bring Ruth rest. Boaz is then restless until he procures that rest for her. The gospel is on display here. We are the barren and fruitless widow. The first husband could not bring about fruit, and now he is dead, utterly powerless. But from the fall in Eden until the Resurrection, God has set about to redeem His chosen people; His bride. The Lord was restless, as it we...

Study in the 1689 Second London Baptist Confession of Faith

Things which appear as "chance" to us have been meticulously ordained by God from the foundation of the world. Ruth's selection of which field to glean advances the story of redemption through its many reversals. Where the faithlessness of Lot's daughters creates apostate nations, the faithfulness of Ruth creates the true people of God. Where Elimelech led his family to ruin in the field of his en...

The story of Ruth is a story of exile and exodus, of paradise lost and paradise regained, of bitterness turned to sweetness. Naomi can only see the pain of what God has taken out of her hands but does not yet have eyes to see that He has already started to replace it with something better. Elimelech could only see by sight and was taken from her; Ruth can see by faith and becomes a loyal lifelong...

Study in the 1689 Second London Baptist Confession of Faith

The opening scene of Ruth is a sobering picture of life lived by sight rather than by faith. By choosing ease, Elimelech removes himself and his family from the blessing of God. In every generation, we too face a similar crossroads. It may seem as though we too live in an age of spiritual famine; an age where each one does right in his own eyes. Will we find our comfort in compromise or in God's p...

The story of Ruth and Naomi is a story of needy supplicants who come with nothing. These godly women come with empty hands, hearts of faith, and find redemption through the kindness of Boaz. Boaz and Ruth, as husband and wife are Christ and the church; the husband is free to take the outsider in and cover her with his love and righteousness. In Boaz we see what we also see in Christ Jesus; he is a...
