Round the Sphere Again

The Easter Edition

The Cross
From Christianity.com, The Ironies of the Cross by D. A. Carson: The Man Who Is Mocked As King Is King, Part 1 of 4, The Man Who Is Utterly Powerless is Powerful, (Part 2 of 4).

From Ligonier Ministries: Is It Accurate to Say That God Died on the Cross? (I’ve noticed that the hymnal my church uses changes the words in hymns like And Can It Be? and Alas and Died My Saviour Die? to avoid the words that might suggest that God died on the cross. Apparently the compilers had the same scruples R. C. Sproul has.)

Monergism.com is featuring articles on the cross and that atonement this month.

The Resurrection
Thomas needed tangible proof  and “in the peculiar providence of God, the report of Thomas’s experience is one of the things the Spirit of God will use to bring [us] to faith.” (For the Love of God)
