Humility is not a mere ornament of a Christian, but an essential part of the new creature: it is a contradiction to be a sanctified man, or a true Christian, and not humble. — Richard Baxter (1615 - 1691) #God #christianquotes #christian #christianity #quote #reformedtheology #reformeddoctrine #richardbaxter #reformedfaith #theology #puritanism #puritanquotes #puritans #puritan #puritantheology #faith

Obsessed with folk horror lately and rewatched this. What I love about it is the palpable isolation. It helps you really imagine what the experience of early American Puritanical settlers was… unfamiliar land, lonely, accompanied by superstition and authoritarian leadership, realistic fear of the unknown translating into panic and otherism and the need to explain a frightening world by any means necessary. I loved the real early tales of Puritans like William Bradford for this reason as well…and Hawthornes Scarlet Letter. Human experience when exploring new lands literally or figuratively is fraught with horror but is often the foundation for future order and idealism. #horrorgram #folkhorror #thevvitch #witch #puritanism #horror #horrormovies

Rev. Dr. Mark Jones, known for his insightful works such as “Knowing God” and “Knowing Sin,” presents another compelling masterpiece in “The Pilgrim’s Regress.” Addressing the vital yet often overlooked subjects of backsliding and apostasy, Dr. Jones examines these topics with a blend of practical insight, theological depth, and biblical wisdom. Delving into the various symptoms of backsliding, Dr. Jones offers both cautionary and practical guidance, thoroughly examining the signs of spiritual decline—from waning affection for God to the resurgence of pride, neglect of prayer, and Scripture, and more. Throughout, he underscores the inherent dangers while stressing the importance of daily spiritual disciplines and engagement with the ordinary means of grace within a church community. Published by @PRPbooks, I appreciate that at the end of each chapter, it includes applications and questions for further reflection, which are genuinely helpful for personal and group study. Though the subject matter can be uncomfortable for many readers, its convicting and illuminating content will surely lead to deep self-reflection and introspection—a much-needed remedy akin to bitter medicine that ultimately heals the soul. While historic Puritan authors such as John Flavel, Richard Sibbes, and John Owen have addressed similar themes, Dr. Jones’ contemporary approach offers accessibility without sacrificing theological rigor. In a time when few dare to broach such topics, I am deeply grateful that Dr. Jones has presented us with a robust and thoroughly biblical work on it. Final thoughts: Dr. Mark Jones’ “The Pilgrim’s Regress” is the finest modern work that I have read on the subject. It is both convicting and encouraging. Dr. Jones writes with a warm pastoral heart and puritanical wisdom, consistent with his other books. If you feel like you or a loved one is drifting away from the faith, or you simply want a highly convicting and edifying read, I highly recommend this book! #BookReview #thepilgrimsregress #MarkJones #Prpbooks #backsliding #apostasy #bible #holybible #puritans #puritanism #knowingGod #knowingsin #theology #reformedtheology #christianbook #bookstagram

I am so STOKED to get my hands on a copy of this book! As some of you know, i enjoy exploring my local parish churches (Suffolk/Norfolk borders) and many of these stunning and moving buildings suffered greatly at the hands of the author of this journal, Mr William Dowsing. During the English civil wars, Dowsing was appointed by Oliver Cromwell/Edward Montagu as “Commissioner for the destruction of monuments of idolatry and superstition”. As a result, during a year long campaign of destruction Dowsing would visit several hundred churches in the counties of (predominantly) Suffolk and Cambridgeshire and eradicate hundreds of years worth of religious art and idolatry. Wherever i see this man’s “handy work” i am always left with a bitter taste in my mouth and a sense of sorrow. As a result of this, i am both apprehensive and excited to read his this man’s journal entries. Regardless of these feelings, i admit to myself that it is still important to try and understand who William Dowsing was as a person. And so, i purchased this book. #williamdowsing #englishcivilwar #olivercromwell #churches #church #churcharchitecture #churchesoftheworld #churchesofengland #history #historylovers #localhistory #folkhistory #book #books #historybooks #puritan #puritanism #bookstagram #booklover #instabooks #instabook

Round every street corner in Norwich you find a medieval church. Or so it seems. It’s one of the delights of wandering round this beautiful city. St Andrew’s was one of the last medieval churches to be built in Norwich, dating from the late 15th and early 16th centuries. The tower was completed in 1498. After the Reformation St Andrew’s became a centre of Protestantism and soon, of early Puritanism thanks to the influence of nearby Cambridge. In 1603 John Robinson became associate pastor of St. Andrew’s. He later became pastor to the separatist Pilgrim Fathers in the Netherlands before their voyage to the New World. #Norwich #StAndrew #Norfolk #Gothic #MedievalChurch #Reformation #Protestantism #Puritanism #Separatists #ChurchesOfInstagram #EnglishChurches #ChurchPhotography #JohnRobinson #PilgrimFathers @norfolkchurchestrust @norwich_historic_churches @norwichdiocese

Andrew Martin Fairbairn was a Scottish Congregationalist minister and theologian. Here he remarks on Matthew 25, and what Christ is doing at the time of the writing. When Christians pity the criminal, purge and purify the prison, it is done at Christ’s bidding. When Christians build a hospital or pity a sufferer, or endow the NHS, it is done at Christ’s bidding. Does Christ still offer the same bidding? Those who do the opposite, seek to fill prisons and offer theological arguments for torture, whose bidding is this? Those who offer theological arguments for bombing hospitals, defunding health systems, and use racial criteria to shut down disease vectors— whose bidding is this? What can you do at Christ’s bidding today? #besomeonesangel #blm #christiancommunity #classicalliberal #datpostmilltho #emptythepews #faithinspired #fruitofthespirit #godseesall #heisrisenindeed #humanityfirst #jesusisking #leftism #lovetheword #newwineskin #philanthropist #puritanism #rememberthevictims #seekthelord #sovereignty #tacklehunger #trustgodandgetgoing #walkingbyfaith #womenofgod

Welsh Awakenings: The Story of God’s Work in Wales is a magnificent documentary directed and produced by @danpugh89 of Pugh Productions, who is renowned for his insightful works like Revival: The Work of God and Matthew Henry: The Life & Times of the Bible Commentator. With Jonathan Thomas at the helm as writer and presenter, this film takes audiences on a spiritual journey through the beautiful country of Wales, a land of many revivals. Set against the backdrop of Wales’ rugged coastal boundaries and majestic mountains, the documentary paints a vivid picture of a land once spiritually barren, yet transformed by the grace and power of God through numerous revivals from the 18th to the 20th century. Available in both digital and physical formats, this documentary is widely distributed by @mediagratiae. As an old-school person, I appreciate that they made this documentary available in a physical format, particularly as a three-disc DVD set. The first disc features the full-length feature film, providing viewers with a captivating narrative of Wales’ revival history. From the humble beginnings of key figures like Griffith Jones and Daniel Rowland to the sweeping movements led by Thomas Charles, David Morgan, and Evan Roberts, the documentary explores the ebbs and flows of spiritual awakening that have shaped the country’s spiritual identity. Aside from the spiritual aspects of the film, I thoroughly enjoyed the breathtaking vistas of Wales’ picturesque landscapes, from its verdant hills and valleys to its ancient churches, steep mountains, and serene rivers and lakes. It’s not just a documentary but a virtual tour of a land steeped in history and tradition. Viewers are treated with hours of awe-inspiring on-location footage.

March 16, 1850: Following years of obscurity, Nathaniel Hawthorne, 45, becomes an early American literary celebrity with the publication of “The Scarlett Letter” by Ticknor & Fields. Hawthorne already had published “Young Goodman Brown” and other of his now noted works in magazines to little ado. His use of romance chafing against severe New England Puritanism (he was born in Salem, MA) combined with psychological themes came to maturity in “The Scarlett Letter” and readers ate it up. #NathanielHawthorne #TheScarlettLetter #literature #americanliterature #ticknorandfields #books #publishing #novels #libraries #puritanism #newengland #salemmassachusetts #writer #literature

🏰 **Founding Principles: The Royal Charter of the Massachusetts Bay Colony!** 🌿 On March 4, 1628, a pivotal moment in colonial history unfolded as the Massachusetts Bay Colony was granted a Royal charter by the English monarchy. 📜 This landmark document laid the foundation for one of the most influential and enduring settlements in early American history. The Royal charter granted to the Massachusetts Bay Colony provided the colonists with a legal framework for self-governance and religious freedom, setting a precedent for democratic principles and individual liberties that would shape the course of American society. It affirmed the colonists' right to establish their own government, elect their own leaders, and enact laws in accordance with their beliefs and values. Founded upon the principles of Puritanism and the pursuit of religious freedom, the Massachusetts Bay Colony became a beacon of hope for those seeking refuge from persecution and oppression. Its establishment marked the beginning of a new chapter in the history of the New World, characterized by exploration, settlement, and the quest for self-determination. The legacy of the Massachusetts Bay Colony endures to this day, as its values of democracy, religious tolerance, and community spirit continue to resonate with people around the world. It serves as a reminder of the power of human ingenuity and perseverance in the face of adversity, and the enduring quest for freedom and justice. 🌟 Join us in commemorating this historic milestone in colonial history. Visit our website to learn more about the founding of the Massachusetts Bay Colony and explore our collection of stamps and ephemera commemorating early American settlements. 📜 Don't forget to follow our page for daily updates and engaging content.

Leo the Great articulated the doctrine of Christ’s two natures, the “hypostatic union.” Here he comments on Matthew 5:7. He says even if one were chaste, sober, “full of decorations”, yet if he is not merciful, he cannot deserve mercy. He repeats Jesus’ words that the merciful shall have mercy shown upon them. From a Protestant or Reformed perspective, these words might hit bumps on the road to justification by faith. But he is certainly correct that living a chaste life, but being unmerciful, gets you no where. Mercy is the fruit and evidence of saving faith. I think it’s wonderful that the church has held the two possible meanings into one word, mercy: both saving grace towards eternal life, and compassion and aiding our neighbor’s suffering. Might we readily agree to “good works”, but bristle if that ends up getting called “mercy”? Are there people we don’t quite think really deserve mercy? How can you strive to excel as much at mercy as the other virtues? #bibletime #antiwoke #bettertomorrow #bhfyp #christianpage #christiansofig #compassioncounts #dogooders #compassionisnotacrime #doinggoodthings #evangelicalchurch #findyourlighthouse #godlycounsel #historybuff #goodthoughtsgoodwordsgooddeeds #love #motivation #loveisaverb #puritanism #rememberthepoor #sharefaithnow #sowlove #socialwork #surrendertogod #truthseekers #wearebettertogether

"O Deus que fez o mundo e tudo o que nele existe, sendo ele Senhor do céu e da terra, não habita em santuários feitos por mãos humanas. Nem é servido por mãos humanas, como se de alguma coisa precisasse; pois ele mesmo é quem a todos dá vida, respiração e tudo mais" (At 17.24,25). Deus é um ser onipotente. Ele não necessita de nenhuma criatura. Não necessita de nada, de nenhum de nós. Possui o suficiente dentro de Si mesmo antes de o mundo vir a existir; Deus era tão bendito em si mesmo quanto o é agora. Não há nada que possa ser acrescentado a Ele; existe tanto primor, mesmo no próprio ser divino, que nada pode ser acrescentado a Ele. Somos pobres criaturas que necessitam de milhares de coisas continuamente: do ar para respirar, da terra para nos sustentar, do fogo para nos aquecer, de roupas para nos cobrir, de comida e bebida, milhares de coisas; necessitamos da criatura mais insignificante, e se Deus eliminasse o uso dela, a vida seria desditosa para nós. Mas esta é a excelência de Deus: Ele não necessita de nada. Deus tem tudo em si mesmo; todas as criaturas do céu e da terra não podem acrescentar nada a Ele; se houvesse mil outros mundos, apesar de Deus ter a posse de todos eles, nenhum acrescentaria uma só partícula ao que está no próprio Deus. Portanto, embora o Senhor tenha feito o céu e a Terra e todas as coisas que neles há, não podemos pensar que Deus é um pouco melhor do que essas coisas ou tem mais glória. Ele tinha tanta glória e bênção quanto tem agora, ou pode ter. Quando todos os anjos e santos estiverem bendizendo Deus eternamente no Céu, eles não poderão acrescentar nada à gloria divina. Dizemos que o Sol é uma criatura gloriosa, mas isso pode acrescentar um pouco mais de luz a Ele? Então, mesmo que os santos e os anjos louvem e bendigam a Deus, o que isso acrescenta a Ele? E nisso o Nome de Deus é excelente. _____________________________________ Jeremiah Burroughs apud Randall J.
