Assembly Quest: August 2014
http://assemblyquest.blogspot.com/2014_08_01_archive.html
Behold the tabernacle of God is with men. Tuesday, August 26, 2014. I have been cut to the quick by this letter by JND:. Above all, we must be in earnest to have it. Who is willing to be dead to what nature and flesh would desire? Yet that is the only way of deliverance. People will tell you it is our standing in Christ. I admit it as Colossians 3, and as faith owns in Romans 6 and Galatians 2; but who is willing to be in the standing? Letters of J. N. Darby, Volume 3. Links to this post. I think that re...

Assembly Quest: A Man over the assembly
http://assemblyquest.blogspot.com/2015/03/a-man-over-assembly.html
Behold the tabernacle of God is with men. Tuesday, March 10, 2015. A Man over the assembly. A couple months ago, the question arose in the Bible Reading whether Moses is a type of Christ. I don't believe he is, because the Scripture generally speaks about Moses. With Christ. That being said, Scripture holds up Moses as. One of my favourite prayers of Moses is in Numbers 27:16–23. Every time I read Numbers, it jumps out at me:. So when Paul refers to Christ as. 1 Timothy 2:5), he means it more profoundly ...

Assembly Quest: July 2014
http://assemblyquest.blogspot.com/2014_07_01_archive.html
Behold the tabernacle of God is with men. Wednesday, July 23, 2014. I've been reading another book by R. A. Huebner recently:. God’s Sovereignty and Glory in the Election and Salvation of Lost Men. What an amazing book! I highly recommend downloading it and giving it a look. Links to this post. Saturday, July 19, 2014. I've posted about this before. If we consider what the Scripture says about. William Kelly put it this way:. Lectures on the Epistle of Paul the Apostle to the Galatians. Because if we use...

Assembly Quest: Institutes
http://assemblyquest.blogspot.com/2015/03/institutes.html
Behold the tabernacle of God is with men. Tuesday, March 31, 2015. I've been reading Calvin's Institutes of the Christian Religion. A couple friends have asked me why. To make a long story short: I've met a lot of people with strong views on Calvin, but few or none of them actually read his book. That's why I read Collected Writings of J. N. Darby. Too: lots of people were willing to share their opinions of his writing, but very few of them seemed actually to have read it. ( I wrote a little article.

Assembly Quest: October 2014
http://assemblyquest.blogspot.com/2014_10_01_archive.html
Behold the tabernacle of God is with men. Friday, October 10, 2014. What is it to be in the flesh? On Sealing with the Holy Ghost". Collected Writings of J. N. Darby, Volume 31. The key to the transition from Romans 7 to Romans 8 is "in the flesh" vs. "in the spirit" (Romans 8:5–8). This is probably the most succinct description of what it means to be "in the flesh" I have ever found. Is that the whole story? Of course it isn't! Links to this post. Thursday, October 9, 2014. Well worth a read. STEM Publi...

Assembly Quest: December 2014
http://assemblyquest.blogspot.com/2014_12_01_archive.html
Behold the tabernacle of God is with men. Monday, December 29, 2014. L]et us remember that the human mind enters a labyrinth whenever it indulges its curiosity, and thus submit to be guided by the divine oracles, how much soever the mystery may be beyond our reach. – John Calvin,. The Institutes of the Christian Religion. Book 1, Chapter 13, Section 21. Links to this post. Friday, December 19, 2014. Links to this post. Thursday, December 11, 2014. Consider the connection with Colossians 3:1–7. ...I know ...

Assembly Quest: November 2014
http://assemblyquest.blogspot.com/2014_11_01_archive.html
Behold the tabernacle of God is with men. Thursday, November 27, 2014. I was reading a blog post a few weeks ago, I can't remember whose blog. But I do remember the author was defending "dispensationalism". Among the comments were several by people of the Reformed persuasion, who were quite adamant that there are really no "dispensationalist" theologians. By which I suppose they mean "no true theologian is a dispensationalist". If the person without the formal theological training appeals to Scripture, t...

Assembly Quest: Whaddaya know?
http://assemblyquest.blogspot.com/2015/02/whaddaya-know.html
Behold the tabernacle of God is with men. Thursday, February 12, 2015. A few months ago someone shared a link on Facebook to an article about Watchman Nee, accusing him of Gnosticism. I seriously doubt Nee was a Gnostic, but I admit I haven't read all his stuff. So let's just acknowledge that it's an extreme accusation, but it's not impossible that there is a sliver of truth in it. I remember hearing a brother once mention that it's the will of God that we are stuck in mortal bodies with indwelling sin&#...

Assembly Quest: January 2015
http://assemblyquest.blogspot.com/2015_01_01_archive.html
Behold the tabernacle of God is with men. Saturday, January 31, 2015. We've been studying Exodus in the Bible readings. We've spent a while discussing the hardening of Pharaoh's heart. People have been saying the same things I've heard for years: some think God hardened Pharaoh's heart first, others think Pharaoh hardened his own heart first. Exodus 4:21 and Romans 9:14–20 are difficult passages. But the problem isn't that they're difficult to. It's that they're difficult to. What God actually tells Mose...
