CALVINIST QUOTE OF THE DAY. Now one of God's purposes for his new and redeemed community is through them to make his righteousness attractive (in personal, family, business, national and international life), and so commend it to all men. Then people outside God's kingdom will see it and desire it, and the righteousness of God's kingdom will, as it were, spill over into the non-Christian world. John Stott (Anglican Calvinist)
Larry, have you read John Stott's commentary on the book of Acts? He quotes Calvin aswell as other quite a bit. I like his commentary... we also had to read Witherington III's "A Socio-rhetorical Commentary on the Book of Acts." It was also good..very long, but good. Just wondering. I have to start my paper now. have a great evening. I may be up at Starbucks later. Home is a distraction when it comes to studying...so i usually study at TCU or Starbucks. have a great evening!
ReplyDeleteI did read Stott's commentary on Acts. It was the best I ever read on Acts. He really brought out the theology of it all. I also read Stott on Ephesians.
ReplyDeleteI hope the paper goes well. I will probably hit Starbucks a little late; I usually wait for the Little Woman to get out of choir on Wednesday before I go, so 8:30 - 9:00 range.
