Backline Launches B-LINE, 24/7 Mental Health and Crisis Support Line For Music Pros

Henry Venn, an Anglican with the Church Missionary Society, makes an awkwardly precise point: good works don’t earn God’s favour on their own, yet Scripture repeatedly promises great reward when they flow from faith, love of God, and obedience. The tension, he suggests, lies less in the Bible than in our stubbornly worldly hearts. Some object to “worldliness,” others to reward itself—but the verses remain. The real question is how such a heart is ever overcome.

#christian #goodworks

HENRY VENN (1859-1918) The Complete Duty of Man "[Acts of mercy] are not to be construed as if mercy would be rewarded independently of faith in the Redeemer : yet are they of great efficacy to remove the objections which are generally made by our worldly hearts against the exercise of love and bounty; since they so fully, assure us, that all acts of beneficence which spring from faith, from love to God, and an obedient heart, are well-pleasing to him, and shall be honoured through liis grace with an immense reward."

Tonight on Steadfast, we're looking at the counterpoint to the ever familiar Ephesians 2:8-9. What does it mean to be created to do good works? Are we right back to earning God's favor? Ephesians 2:10 helps us dig into that question. https://youtube.com/live/Ma4p6OBiECk

A quotation from Eric Hoffer

The pleasure we derive from doing favors is partly in the feeling it gives us that we are not altogether worthless. It is a pleasant surprise to ourselves.

Eric Hoffer (1902-1983) American writer, philosopher, longshoreman
Passionate State of Mind, Aphorism 113 (1955)

A quotation from Will Rogers

If some of those Birds would spend their time following His example instead of trying to figure out His mode of arrival and departure, they would come nearer getting confidence in their Church.

Robert William Dale was a Congregational pastor. Writing on doing the will of God, he reflects on principles God will judge the world (Mt 25:31ff). Jesus won’t ask about your sympathy for the hungry and miserable. Jesus will tell the righteous that they gave him meat when hungered.

John Piper, in contrast, has an alternative view, that Jesus will ask about bible reading.

How can you respond to Jesus’s needs beyond mere sympathy?

#christian #cross #extranos #goodworks #godlovesme

ROBERT WILLIAM DALE (1829-1895) "NECESSITY OF DOING THE WILL OF GOD" "In a later chapter in this Gospel the Lord Jesus Christ teaches us on what principles He will judge the world. He does not tell us that He will say to the righteous, You had a very 'feeling heart, and when you heard about the miseries of men, you felt great pity; you were not absorbed in your own affairs; you were not cold and unsympathetic; when you used to read about the hungry and the naked and the homeless, and about all who suffered from great misfortune and from great oppression, you actually wept; and you were so compassionate that you wept as much when the story of pain and anguish and famine and shame was told in a novel as when you saw it in a newspaper, or when it came to you in a letter from a friend. No; He will say to the righteous — 'Come, ye blessed of My Father, ... for I was an hungred, and ye gave Me meat...'"

We explore the true essence of gain and loss in life, emphasizing our relationship with Jesus. Learn why relying on good works alone leads to spiritual loss, and how to embrace God’s love through service. True gain comes from being with Him. #GainVsLoss #RelationshipWithJesus #SpiritualGrowth #FaithOverWorks #GoodWorks #ChristianFaith #GodsLove #BiblicalTruth #Forgiveness #PurposeInLife

A quotation from The Bible

   Be careful that you don’t practice your religion in front of people to draw their attention. If you do, you will have no reward from your Father who is in heaven.
   Whenever you give to the poor, don’t blow your trumpet as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets so that they may get praise from people. I assure you, that’s the only reward they’ll get. But when you give to the poor, don’t let your left hand know what your right hand is doing so that you may give to the poor in secret. Your Father who sees what you do in secret will reward you.
   When you pray, don’t be like hypocrites. They love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the street corners so that people will see them. I assure you, that’s the only reward they’ll get. But when you pray, go to your room, shut the door, and pray to your Father who is present in that secret place. Your Father who sees what you do in secret will reward you.

   [Προσέχετε [δὲ] τὴν δικαιοσύνην ὑμῶν μὴ ποιεῖν ἔμπροσθεν τῶν ἀνθρώπων πρὸς τὸ θεαθῆναι αὐτοῖς· εἰ δὲ μή γε, μισθὸν οὐκ ἔχετε παρὰ τῷ πατρὶ ὑμῶν τῷ ἐν τοῖς οὐρανοῖς.
   Ὅταν οὖν ποιῇς ἐλεημοσύνην, μὴ σαλπίσῃς ἔμπροσθέν σου, ὥσπερ οἱ ὑποκριταὶ ποιοῦσιν ἐν ταῖς συναγωγαῖς καὶ ἐν ταῖς ῥύμαις, ὅπως δοξασθῶσιν ὑπὸ τῶν ἀνθρώπων· ἀμὴν λέγω ὑμῖν, ἀπέχουσιν τὸν μισθὸν αὐτῶν. σοῦ δὲ ποιοῦντος ἐλεημοσύνην μὴ γνώτω ἡ ἀριστερά σου τί ποιεῖ ἡ δεξιά σου, ὅπως ᾖ σου ἡ ἐλεημοσύνη ἐν τῷ κρυπτῷ· καὶ ὁ πατήρ σου ὁ βλέπων ἐν τῷ κρυπτῷ ἀποδώσει σοι.
   Καὶ ὅταν προσεύχησθε, οὐκ ἔσεσθε ὡς οἱ ὑποκριταί, ὅτι φιλοῦσιν ἐν ταῖς συναγωγαῖς καὶ ἐν ταῖς γωνίαις τῶν πλατειῶν ἑστῶτες προσεύχεσθαι, ὅπως φανῶσιν τοῖς ἀνθρώποις· ἀμὴν λέγω ὑμῖν, ἀπέχουσιν τὸν μισθὸν αὐτῶν. σὺ δὲ ὅταν προσεύχῃ, εἴσελθε εἰς τὸ ταμεῖόν σου καὶ κλείσας τὴν θύραν σου πρόσευξαι τῷ πατρί σου τῷ ἐν τῷ κρυπτῷ· καὶ ὁ πατήρ σου ὁ βλέπων ἐν τῷ κρυπτῷ ἀποδώσει σοι.]

Marcus Dods, Free Church of Scotland minister, quotes the abolitionist William Lloyd Garrison. Slavery violates the Golden Rule, “Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.” Some need to be reminded that enslaved persons have the same feelings as ourselves.

How can you look afresh at your adversaries, people you might be hurting, as if they were a person of the same passions and feelings as yourself?

#christian #cross #extranos #goodworks #godlovesme

Mario Brile MARCUS DODS (1834-1909) Erasmus and Other Essays "'If we oppress the stranger as I have shown, and if by a knowledge of his heart we find he is a person of the same passions and feelings as ourselves, we are certainly breaking by the prosecution of the slave-trade that fundamental rule of Christianity which says we shall not do that unto another which we wish should not be done unto ourselves! [quoting Garrison]"

Robert MacCulloch, Scottish minister, on Isaiah 58:7, bringing the poor that are cast out into thy house. This frequent command is from God and urged by humanity, the love of God, the grace of God, and his promises. It is our joy.

How many Christians, even liberal ones, are ready to bring “the poor that are cast out into thy house”? Do conservatives seek to week out tenderness?

How can you practice this duty?

#christian #freedomfighter #doingthemostgood #goodworks #healtheworld

"To this humane, kind exercise (liberality], the most ample encouragement is given in the sacred Scriptures, where it is often required by the supreme authority of Jehovah. The practice of this duty is there urged, by the dictates of humanity and the tenderness of human nature; by the love of God, the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ; by exceeding great and precious promises, respecting this and the future world; and therefore it mould be performed with alacrity and pleasure."

"Illumination is characterized by a number of things. The basic shift in illumination is from seeing God as ‘out there’ to an experience of God present deep within our being. This goes hand in hand with the deep level of trust to which the purgative stage brings us. …

“Illumination is also characterized by increasing social concern, not out of obligation but out of a deep sense of God’s love poured into our hearts for others. Good works are a hallmark of the illuminative way, not as a responsibility or a duty but again as a response of love. What happens in illumination is a paradigm shift in our motivation. Rather than a self-referenced, self-concerned motivation for our relationship with God, our motivation becomes a heart burning with love for God.”

A quotation from Carlyle:

«
Beautiful it is to see and understand that no worth, known or unknown, can die even in this earth. The work an unknown good man has done is like a vein of water flowing hidden underground, secretly making the ground green; it flows and flows, it joins itself with other veins and veinlets; one day, it will start forth as a visible perennial well.
