PSALM 63:3 Because your steadfast love is better than life, my lips will praise you. 

The following commentary on Psalm 63:3, by The Expositor’s Bible Commentary, speaks of the rewards of seeking God fervently. The commentary on the entire Psalm is pasted in for those who might want to read it. As encouragement to do so, check out the one sentence with which MacArthur’s commentary described 63:3:   better than life. God’s covenant love is more valuable to David than life itself (cf. Php_1:21; Act_20:24). Those verses: Philippians 1:21  For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain.  Acts 20:24  But I do not account my life of any value nor as precious to myself, if only I may finish my course and the ministry that I received from the Lord Jesus, to testify to the gospel of the grace of God.  The words from Expositor’s commentary are a wonderful read that fill out the understanding regarding those two verses.

The Coup We Never Knew — Epoch Times Commentary By Victor Davis Hanson

What happened to the U.S. border? Where did it go? Who erased it? Why and how did 5 million people enter our country illegally? Did Congress secretly repeal our immigration laws? Did President Joe Biden issue an executive order allowing foreign nationals to walk across the border and reside in the United States as they pleased? …How did a virus cancel the Constitution? Did the lockdowns rob of us of our sanity? Or was it the woke hysteria that ignited our collective madness? We are beginning to wake up from a nightmare to a country we no longer recognize, and from a coup we never knew.

Mike Gendron used around 40 slides to discuss the significant points of difference between the Protestant biblical gospel and the Roman Catholic Church (RCC) un-biblical gospel. His slides contained information which he added to as he discussed the opening graph of a timeline of the Christian church. He pointed out each departure of the RCC from God’s word. [It was a thorough presentation for being so short, 64 minutes.

He does get into the departure of evangelicalism from the Bible also, especially regarding the ecumenical movement spearheaded by the Pope, the Manhattan Declaration, regarding that movement, is attached in pdf form.]

Eternal Security and Gospel Assurance — Mike Gendron [former Roman Catholic]

Did you know over half of professing Christianity denies or rejects the Gospel’s divine promise of eternal life? Our Lord Jesus made His gracious and unbreakable promise very clear: “Truly, truly, I say to you, he who hears My word, and believes Him who sent Me has eternal life, and does not come into judgment, but has passed out of death into life” (John 5:24). [Then Mike talked about this via the following subheadings: Power of Almighty God; Promises of Our Great God and Savior; Perpetual Intercession of Jesus; Proof of Christ’s Unconditional Love; Protection of the Good Shepherd; Permanence of Divine Gifts; Plain Meaning of the Word “Eternal.” In conclusion, he asked 7 rhetorical questions.]
