Today marks a turning point in my blog ministry. I’m renaming my old blog, “Mature Manhood of
Christ,” as “Equipped with Words.” I
believe that this will be a better fit for the message of the blog. The Bible states that Jesus is the living
Word of God made flesh and that through the Word we become full and mature in
our faith. Rooted in the Word, we are
unable to be tossed about by deceptions, false teachings and doctrines. The Bible also states that we are equipped by
the Word for every good work and that we are to put on the Word as a sword, to
stand against the Devil’s schemes.
While there wasn’t really anything terribly wrong with
“Mature Manhood of Christ,” I believe that it gave somewhat the wrong message –
this isn’t a blog intended for only men, and in today’s society, “mature” can
mean a lot of things; and not all of them good.
Equipped with Words is not only about holding tight to The Word; it’s
also about being equipped with our words – the words we use in ministry and
evangelism and apologetics – so that as men and women mature in our faith, we
are able to be imitators of Christ, equipped for every good work.
New posts will be coming at a regular basis, at least once a
week. I plan on talking about theology,
reviewing and discussing current and classic Christian literature, and just
generally discussing anything related to living for Christ in a secular
age. Join me each week!
For His glory,
Mark
