Theology Leads to Doxology


My friend, Becky Pliego, is hosting a series throughout April entitled Doctrines in the Kitchen.

Becky says: "Many years have passed since God opened my eyes, and my ears. And now I understand that one cannot be a true Christian if the Word of God is not engraved in one's heart and mind. It is not about going to church or being part of a certain ministry. It is about abiding in the Word of God.

This is the reason why we have prepared a delicious, wonderful banquet for you. We want you to taste and see that studying the Word of God, that digging deep into it is sweeter than the joys you'll find in any other book, it is sweeter than anything else! Those doctrines, which in a book may look "arid" have the power to change your heart."

I can only testify to the truth of this statement. My testimony is included there, where I share how studying the doctrine of Christ filled my emptiness.

I would encourage you to go along to Becky's website and join with us as we share how studying theology has led, not to dead orthodoxy, but to a joyful doxology, and hearts full of praise as we see our Sovereign Lord exalted and lifted high!

Oh, the depth of the riches of the wisdom and knowledge of God!
How unsearchable his judgments,
and his paths beyond tracing out!
“Who has known the mind of the Lord?
Or who has been his counselor?”
“Who has ever given to God,
that God should repay him?”
For from him and through him and to him are all things.
To him be the glory forever! Amen."
(Romans 11:33-36)
