Happy Day of Pentecost!
Pentecost or Whitsun was the day the Holy Spirit was poured out upon the disciples ten days after the Ascension of Christ. This was prophesied not only in Joel 2:28 but also by Christ in John 14:16-26 as the Paraclete/Comforter which Christ would send after He ascended into heaven.
Soli Deo Gloria
Joel 2:28
²⁸And it shall come to pass afterward, that I will pour out my spirit upon all flesh; and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions:
Acts 2:17
¹⁷And it shall come to pass in the last days, saith God, I will pour out of my Spirit upon all flesh: and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams:
John 14:26
²⁶But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.

Geneva Catechism Calvin.pdf
295.3 KB
One of the earliest Reformed catechisms, foundational to all the following ones, was the Geneva Catechism, written by John Calvin in 1545. His printer was running a tight deadline, and so he had a courier running back and forth to bring each successive page of the catechism to the printer as soon as Calvin finished writing it. It begins with a question which would obviously inspire the Westminster divines, a century later:
Question1 Master. — What is the chief end of human life?
Scholar. — To know God by whom men were created.

J. C. Ryle did not support the current thing:
"The fear of man" does indeed "bring a snare" (Prov.29:25). It is terrible to observe the power which it has over most minds, and especially over the minds of the young. Few seem to have any opinions of their own, or to think for themselves. Like dead fish, they go with the stream and tide: what others think right, they think right; and what others call wrong, they call wrong too. There are not many original thinkers in the world. Most men are like sheep, they follow a leader. If it was the fashion of the day to be Romanists, they would be Romanists, -- if to be Mahometans, they would be Mahometans. They dread the idea of going against the current of the times. In a word, the opinion of the day becomes their religion, their creed, their Bible, and their God.

JUST IN - U.S. Supreme Court overturns Roe v. Wade, returning decision on abortion laws to individual states.
Alito: "The Constitution makes no reference to abortion, and no such right is implicitly protected by any constitutional provision."

Thought provoking essay here, lads. Auron McIntyre explains why the left pushes such ridiculous nonsense- lies serve as an effective psychological organizing tool. https://youtu.be/se5PUqyqGhM

While the overturning of Roe v. Wade. is excellent news, abortion has not been solved.
First off, as you’re probably aware, this means that individual states’ laws on abortion can take effect. Most blue states have laws robustly protecting abortion, and about half of red states still haven’t banned abortion. Furthermore, those that have still leave loopholes and shortcomings (such as making exceptions for cases of rape or the “health” of the mother).
Beyond a blanket ban on all abortions excepting cases where the mother is reasonably certain to die if she delivers, we should also advocate a just punishment for cases of abortion. The death penalty should most certainly be applied to the doctors, mothers, and fathers who execute or procure abortions, or aid and abet those who do.
We should also support a comprehensive definition of abortion which includes the morning after pill and in vitro fertilization. Let’s work to make this the normal conservative position.
