Hello, brethren,
Do you have any recommended reading (preferably not too long, more like a Puritan treatise or something similar) on holiness? As in, what it is, the holiness of God, the holiness of created things like the saints, sabbath, scriptures and temple, and related topics?

This work is a must read, and it is not for the faint at heart. It ought to be read by every professing “reformed” believer on the planet. It’s tiresome to hear “reformed” Christians profess to be “reformed believers” and yet not obey and do those things which are in accordance with Christ’s...

Hello all... my wife has illuminated what seems to be a problem of mine that apparently I hadn't seen before.
I was speaking of my love for the people of God and people in general; I love to meet new people at churches and go street preaching, handing gospel tracts out, talking to strangers...
Hello,
