Earnestly Contending

"I felt the necessity to write to you appealing that you contend earnestly for the faith which was once for all handed down to the saints". (Jude 1:3). Unashamedly working to fulfill the exhortation of Scripture to effectively witness to, and defend, the unshakable Truth of the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

Today's Bible Verse: Therefore He has mercy on whom He wills, and whom He wills He hardens. You will say to me then,
"Why does He still find fault? For who has resisted His will?" But indeed, O man, who are you to reply against God?
Will the thing formed say to him who formed it, "Why have you made me like this?" (Romans 9:18-20)

I echo the following words of C.H. Spurgeon as they pertain to my beliefs regarding Christ and His Gospel: "I am never ashamed to avow myself a Calvinist; I do not hesitate to take the name of Baptist; but if I am asked what is my creed, I reply, “It is Jesus Christ”...the body of divinity to which I would pin & bind myself forever, God helping me, is not...any...human treatise; but Jesus Christ, who is the sum & substance of the Gospel, who is in Himself all Theology, the incarnation of every precious Truth, the all-glorious personal embodiment of the Way, The Truth & the Life".

I am a happily married, 30 yr-old Canadian man with 3 wonderful children, a beautiful wife, and a love for God. I strongly believe in defending the fulness of the Biblical Gospel, the integrity of Scripture, purity of worship, the sovereignty of God, and the perfect righteousness of Jesus Christ. For the sake of the Biblical Gospel I subscribe to the scriptural truths identified in the 5 'solas' of the Reformation: we are saved by (1)Grace alone through (2)Faith alone in (3)Christ alone, as revealed in (4)Scripture alone to the (5)glory of God alone.
