Monday Links

Monday brings with it the start of a new week, Jonah translation for tomorrow, the reviewing of seemingly random paradigms, and, of course, research for my papers — made all the more exciting by the fulfilment of various ILL requests in the last few days. Thus, today is a link day.

Carl Trueman’s latest — Messiahs Pointing to the Door. The most piercing observations on the culture of the U.S. come from people who aren’t actually from the U.S. (or who spend a lot of time away — see Bill Bryson’s “I’m a Stranger Here Myself”).

From IRBS — Glad Tidings from Heaven. A bit of the gospel preaching of a Welsh Puritan.

An older article (around two weeks) from Newsweek — How do You Read the Bible?. A whole host of comments regarding Sola Scriptura spring to mind from this one, but I wrote most of them down back here.

Geneva Redux posted a bit from Machen at the beginning of last month — What is Orthodoxy? As always, Machen’s comments are as appropriate now as they were 74 years ago.
