When we say that there’s only one way of salvation, people say, “You’re very narrow minded.” But the truth is always narrow minded. 2 + 2 = 4. it’s not 3.9, it’s not 4.1.

Truth
January 1, 2013
I pray that the Lord might crown this year with His goodness and in the coming one give you a hallowed dare-devil spirit in lifting the biting sword of Truth consuming you with a passion…known to God as that saintly madness that led His Son through bloody sweat and hot tears to agony on a rude Cross–and Glory!

The canon-mind is the most honest, happy, holy, and healthy mind in the universe. It’s a mind controlled by the person of Jesus Christ, esteeming the things that He esteems, despising the things that He despises. It is a mind in tune with Heaven, discriminating between light and darkness with the deftness of God Himself. It is a mind radically loyal to the words of Scripture, unbending in opposition, unyielding to doubt and unwavering in its allegiance.

We must never allow the majority to overrule the clear teaching of the Word of God.

In the Western world the enemy has forsworn violence. He comes against us no more with sword and fagot; he now comes smiling, bearing gifts. He raises his eyes to heaven and swears that he too believes in the faith of our fathers, but his real purpose is to destroy that faith, or at least to modify it to such an extent that it is no longer the supernatural thing it once was. He comes in the name of philosophy or psychology or anthropology, and with sweet reasonableness urges us to rethink our historic position, to be less rigid, more tolerant, more broadly understanding.

In the Scriptures, sin is man’s greatest malady, yet sin is treated as a “light thing” in our culture and in the Christianity it has produced.

My creed leads me to think that prayer is efficacious, and surely a day’s asking God to overrule all events for good is not lost.
