Leviticus 19:15-18: “You shall do no injustice in judgment…You shall not go about as a talebearer among your people; nor shall you take a stand against the life of your neighbor…You shall not take vengeance, nor bear any grudge, but you shall love your neighbor as yourself: I am the Lord.”
Galatians 6:10: “Therefore, as we have opportunity, let us do good to all, especially to those who are of the household of faith.”

Feb 20th, 2010 by Nathan Finn

Abraham Booth was a Particular Baptist pastor in London from 1769-1806 and a key evangelical leader in England.

Aug 17th, 2009 by Nathan Finn

From Stephen Holmes, a Baptist theologian on the divinity faculty at the University of St. Andrews in Scotland:

How to Weaken Pride and Cultivate Humility

Jul 15th, 2008 by Nathan Finn

One of the most convicting and encouraging books I have read in the last year is C. J. Mahaney’s Humility: True Greatness. At the conclusion of the book, Mahaney offers a list of activities to help believer’s weaken their pride and cultivate humility. Though I meditated on the list when I first read the book, I was reminded of it on a recent Sunday when one of our pastors referenced Mahaney’s list during a Sunday School … [Read More]
