Colossians: The Glory of Christ

Where is Christ most glorified? 

As hard as it is for many to believe, the Son of God was never more glorified than as he hung on the cross of Calvary, absorbing the righteous wrath of a holy God as a substitute for sinners. The slate of our sins was wiped clean, and the record of debt that our transgressions demanded was nailed to the cross and marked “Paid in full.” This is the message Paul wants to convey to God’s people in his letter to the Colossians—Christ’s glory and the cross go hand-in-hand. 

Please join us at the 17th Quakertown Conference on Reformed Theology, November 8-9, 2024, at Grace Bible Fellowship Church in Quakertown, PA. We are thrilled to devote this year’s conference to an in-depth study of Colossians with speakers Brandon Crowe, Richard Phillips, and Derek Thomas.

A Confident Canon: Identifying the Word of God

The Reformation's return to Sola Scriptura was a return to the ultimate authority of God's Word. Many of the major Reformed confessions include complete listings of the Old and New Testament Canon for a significant purpose. Why? Because if God's Word has ultimate authority, then one needs to know which books are from God and which aren't, which can bind consciences and which can not.

Join us September 27-28 at Greenbelt Baptist Church in Greenbelt, MD, as we explore how Christians, especially the Reformed, have recognized and identified what is and what is not Holy Scripture at the 2024 Prince George's Conference on Reformed Theology, A Confident Canon: Identifying the Word of God. Miles Van Pelt, Stephen Wellum, and Stephen Fix will examine issues of canonization for both the Old and New Testaments, the exclusion of the Apocrypha, Scripture's self-authenticating nature, and the role of the Canon within the life of a local church.

Listen to Eric Alexander on the Book of Revelation

On July 18 the Alliance began airing Eric Alexander's sermons on the Book of Revelation on the Hear the Word of God Podcast.

Of all the books of the Bible, the Book of Revelation has received diverse attention from the Christian world. In this rich study, Rev. Alexander proclaims the kingdom of God here now and yet to come in its fullness. God has opened a door into heaven in this book, providing a vision of the exalted King of kings on His throne. There is nothing we need more.

Today, and in every generation, people long for the rest found in Christ. The opportunity we have to share this Good News through podcasts is significant. Now people all over the world can access Eric’s rich, God-glorifying teaching through this podcast. Be sure to subscribe! It's available wherever you listen to podcasts. Visit HeartheWordofGod.org for more information.

Living in an Anti-Christian World

A shift has taken place in recent years—as Christians, we find ourselves suddenly living not merely in a world that is indifferent to the Gospel but one that is distinctively anti-Christian. Christian beliefs are often regarded in the West as immoral and dangerous. This situation is nothing new to the Church, but it does call Christians to consider our need for courage and conviction while living in a culture that finds us socially unacceptable. 

On June 28 and 29, the Alliance will premiere the plenary sessions from the 2024 Philadelphia Conference on Reformed Theology, Living in an Anti-Christian World. Peter Jones uncovers the subtle yet profound influence of Marxism in America and contrasts this with the Christian worldview of God as both Creator and Redeemer in his two messages. Aaron Renn, a first-time speaker at the PCRT,  explores "The Three Worlds of Evangelicalism" and how we can strengthen the Church in this anti-Christian age. Richard Phillips bookends the PCRT with messages that tackle the challenges Christians face in a society that often stands in opposition to their beliefs, offering encouragement to us as sojourners in a world that is not our home.

Carve out some time this weekend or later to watch these timely sessions. Visit AllianceLive.org for links and more information.

Are you attending PCA-GA?

If you are attending the PCA General Assembly June 10-14 in Richmond, VA, be sure to stop by Booth 416 to say hi. I will be there giving away copies of I Have a Confession: The What and Why of the Westminster Confession of Faith by pastor and Place for Truth contributor Nathan Eshelman

Working to encourage, embolden, and equip ministers and other church leaders, the Alliance of Confessing Evangelicals is a coalition of believers who hold to the historic creeds and confessions of the Reformed faith and proclaim biblical doctrine in order to foster a Reformed awakening in today’s Church. Is your church longing to equip its members in this way? When you stop by the booth, ask how you can join with believers worldwide by becoming a member of the Alliance.

Two Cities, Two Loves: Christian Responsibility in a Crumbling Culture

Christians belong to God’s kingdom but live in earthly realms that celebrate radically different loves and priorities. In this new edition from P&R Publishing, James Boice highlights the dangers we face—dangers familiar to God’s people throughout the millennia—while offering practical, biblical wisdom and comfort for our sojourn. Using Augustine’s City of God as his form, Dr. Boice delivers encouragement to Christians attempting to live as faithful members of God’s kingdom in our crumbling culture.

Originally written in 1996, Two Cities, Two Loves is just as relevant today—calling Believers “above all to be Christians—that is, to be God’s people in the midst of this world’s culture.”
