“But Scripture never accepts such uncertainty. Instead, the biblical authors confidently declare from Genesis to Revelation that God does exist and that the reason we know he exists is that he is not silent. This speaking God has revealed who he is and what his will is for his people. In the eyes of the world the skeptic is considered the sage; in God’s eyes the skeptic is called the fool (Ps. 14: 1). God may be incomprehensible, but he is not unknowable. Any doubt is removed the moment God opens his mouth.” (Mathew Barrett, None Greater)

Feliz Friday! We have another roundup of links that are itching to be read, so here they are!

• Pastor Tom Buck has recently posted a four-part series on concerns related to the ministry of Sam Allberry, Living Out, and their counsel to believers who struggle with same-sex attraction. If you have benefited from Allbery’s ministry, this just may be worth spending time reading. (Parts 1, 2, 3, and 4)
• Ben Shapiro recently interviewed Discovery Institute Senior Fellow Stephen Meyer on the scientific claims of Intelligent Design, and this may be a great introduction to ID, as well as a great overview of some of the criticisms of neo-Darwinian evolution. It was a fascinating interview, to say the least.
• Would you consider yourself a cage-stage Calvinist? Take this seven-sign diagnostic, and check your heart.
• How should we deal with our emotions? By engaging them, according to biblical counselors J. Alasdair Groves and Winston Smith, authors of a new book on emotions. They provide a four-step process to manage our emotions in a God-honoring way. This looks to be very helpful.
• New Testament scholar Michael Kruger gives a brief response to the question, “What about the ‘lost’ books of the Bible?“
• How can we tell if someone is in the early stages of spiritual danger? Taking Hebrews as his guide, pastor Sinclair Ferguson points to three warning signs. Be on the lookout for your own soul.
• Pastor Clint Archer writes of three common distractions people have that prevent them from following Christ, based on Luke 9:57-62. Make sure, when following Christ, you count the cost.
• Though it may look messy, Triablogue posted their Easter Resources for 2019. It’s a one-stop shop of all their posts from last year’s list of articles related to the apologetic significance of Easter. Take a look!

That’s all for this week! Please pray for all the flocks, as most meet tonight. See you all on Sunday!
