"A Salvation Long Ago Foretold" - 1 Peter 1:10-12
This past Sunday I had the privilege of preaching at Christ's Covenant Church in our continuing series on "Living in a Place that's not our Home" from 1 Peter. My text was 1 Peter 1:10-12, and the title of the sermon is "A Salvation Long Ago Foretold." You can find the audio here. At that same link you will find some resources I have provided that may be of assistance in reading the Bible in a gospel-centered, Christ-focused way.

Mondays with Marty
In this week's installment from Off the Record with Martin Luther, Luther shares his fondness for his wife Katie:
"2506. The joy of a religious spouse. The greatest joy is to have a religious spouse, one to whom you can entrust everything and depend upon, with whom you can raise children, and so on. God puts a lot into marriage, without the parties giving much thought to it in advance, Katie, you have a religious husband, you are an empress! Thank God for it! But only good and God-fearing people reach such a level." (p. 46)DISCLAIMER: The views reflected in this quote do not necessarily reflect those of the author of this blog.

In this week's installment from Off the Record with Martin Luther, Luther has some less than flattering words for the female gender:
"2034. If I were ever single again, I would have an obedient wife carved out of stone; otherwise I despair of ever finding obedience in any woman." (p. 44)DISCLAIMER: The views reflected in this quote do not necessarily reflect those of the author of this blog. This quote is shared in the interest of edification, education, and/or humor.

In this week's installment from Off the Record with Martin Luther, Luther shares his fondness for his wife Katie:
"1006. The merits of women. In women many merits come together: the Lord's Blessing, progeny, familiarity with things, all of which are great gifts, which could well overwhelm someone. Just imagine if we did not have the female sex. The house and everything associated with the household would collapse; the state and society would fall apart. Thus, the world cannot endure without women, even if men could bring children into the world by themselves."

In this week's installment from Off the Record with Martin Luther, Luther shares his fondness for his wife Katie:
49. Luther values his wife, Katie. I wouldn't trade my Katie for France or Venice; first, because God gave her to me and me to her; second, that I have often experienced that other women have far more shortcomings than my Katie--although she certainly has enough, they are offset by far greater virtues; and third, because she is faithful to her marriage, that is fidelity and respect. And a wife, on the other hand, should be able to think the same about her husband." (p. 36)DISCLAIMER: The views reflected in this quote do not necessarily reflect those of the author of this blog.
