"If we believe in Christ, let us believe His words and promises, and we shall never die, and shall come to Christ with joyful security with Him to reign forever." -Cyprian, quoted in Perkins, A Reformed Catholic #biblestr #christianostr #jesus #catholic #reformed

"The papist says we are justified by faith because it disposes a sinner to his justification...We say otherwise that faith justifies because it is a supernatural instrument created by God in the heart of man at his conversion, whereby he apprehends and receives Christ's righteousness for his justification." -William Perkins, A Reformed Catholic (AD 1598) #christianostr #biblestr #jesus #christianity #reformationday #reformed

The book of Exodus continues the story begun in Genesis, of the offspring of the woman who will crush the head of the serpent. How God fulfills His word time and again, how Pharaoh shows he is of the seed of the serpent, and how the LORD accomplishes an initial fulfillment of the crushing of the serpent in judging Pharaoh and his army at the Red Sea. How God begins to make a way to restore and perfect the communion Adam and Eve enjoyed with Him in Eden.
