Catechism Corner

Q. 54. How is Christ exalted in his sitting at the right hand of God?
A. Christ is exalted in his sitting at the right hand of God, in that as God-man he is advanced to the highest favour with God the Father, with all fulness of joy, glory, and power over all things in heaven and earth; and does gather and defend his church, and subdue their enemies; furnisheth his ministers and people with gifts and graces, and maketh intercession for them.

(Westminster Larger Catechism)

Tabletalk Moment

The Apostle Of Hope:  Typically, we use the word “hope” when we are referring to uncertainties. Biblical hope refers to certainties, for the Lord is incapable of breaking His pledges to us. (Tabletalk Magazine, December 25, page 56).

 
Looking Ahead: The focus of January Tabletalk is the Synod of Dort, which took place 400 years ago. Our January discussion time gathering will consider one of the articles written about Dort in the January Tabletalk. January copies are available on the back table.
