People do not drift toward Holiness. Apart from grace-driven effort, people do not gravitate toward godliness, prayer, obedience to Scripture, faith, and delight in the Lord. We drift toward compromise and call it tolerance; we drift toward disobedience and call it freedom; we drift toward superstition and call it faith. We cherish the indiscipline of lost self-control and call it relaxation; we slouch toward prayerlessness and delude ourselves into thinking we have escaped legalism; we slide toward godlessness and convince ourselves we have been liberated. (DA Carson, For the Love of God, Volume 2. HT: DG)

We’ve got another batch of links for you today, so sit back, buckle up, and hang on…
- The folks over at Desiring God have officially launched a Czech website! There’s not a whole lot of content there yet, but they plan to add one sermon per week. This is going to be a great resource for one of the least religious populations on the planet. (WEB)
- Over at the Ordinary Pastor blog, Erik talks about what his house has been like since they radically cut back on television. (WEB)
- RC Sproul has some thoughts on selecting the “right” interpretation of the Bible. (WEB)
- Douglas Groothuis has a very short outline on truth and contradiction that I appreciated. I may have to use this as a quote on a future Friday. (WEB)
- And for everyone who was asking for a video, here’s one of Martyn Lloyd-Jones speaking of George Whitefield. (VIDEO)
There you go! I’ll see you Sunday.
