Shining forth the White Light of the Law
“What then shall we say? That the law is sin? By no means! Yet if it had not been for the law, I would not have known sin. For I would not have known what it is to covet if the law had not said, “You shall not covet.” Rom 7:7
“You have heard that [...]
Blessed Reformation Day – Video
R.C. Sproul’s “Reformation Study Bible” and “Reformation Video” is so apropos for today. Share this with your friends and family and as you celebrate our Reformation, remember those who God gave to us who gave their lives so that we could have a Bible in our hands, in our languages, so all could read:

Theology Girl & “A Heart for Freedom”
A “Heart for Freedom”
”Heavenly Notes”
JoyPals.com-ReformedWomen
“And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.” John 8:32
Freedom – Election 2008 is taking up most of my time and attention and even my theological thoughts are leaning to those things that represent our God-given freedoms. Here is another article I wrote back in 2005 on “freedom” [...]
Elections and the Casting of Lots
The lot is cast into the lap, but its every decision is from the LORD. Proverbs 16:33
The peace that passes understanding is the knowledge that the Omnipotent, Holy, Righteous and Glorious God is in providential control of all things in heaven and earth. Let the gainsayers, soothsayers, prognosticators and men/women with no knowledge as dust particles [...]
Yes World and Charlie Gibson, God Has A Plan
In light of the ignorance of man as to God’s world and His providential plan and control of it, let us enlighten you:
God Has a Plan
It is unthinkable that a God of infinite wisdom and power would create a world without a definite plan for that world. And because God is thus infinite His plan [...]
Reformed Women, Theology Girls on Media
If you spend any time whatsoever watching/listening to the media in any of its forms, you are soon overwhelmed with how biased, unfair, liberal and devilish it is. This is especially so as it pertains to political matters. The recent attack against Sarah Palin (who we and the over 14,000 members of the JoyPals Network [...]

Women and the Knowledge of God
http://www.theologygirls.blogspot.com/
Theology and Women:
Many Christian women are under the false idea that the “study of God” is only for men. There is nothing so far from the truth. All of God’s children, men, women and children are called to “know” God; study to “know” God and to grow [...]
Think Before You Teach
“Not many of you should become teachers, my brothers,
for you know that we who teach will be judged with greater strictness.”
James 3:1
Think Before You Teach
In our Joypals group, we have been studying Carol Ruvolo’s “James on Works” which I would highly recommend for women’s Bible-Book studies. I always enjoy Carol’s studies because she “digs deep” [...]
BB Warfield on Cessation
In reading BB Warfield’s Works, we are sometimes astounded by the error of our day in so many places when compared to the biblical theology of folks like Calvin, Warfield, and other solid biblical Reformers. The folly is exhibited in many pulpits today and the true message is either eliminated or watered down with rhetoric, [...]

In a day when churches and its pastors/teachers are using the pulpit for anything and everything but the true gospel message of salvation, it is high time for us to revisit what we believe and sharpen our swords/minds for spiritual readiness in battle. I am reading through BB Warfield’s Works, which are, mildly put, “incredible” [...]
The Surety of God’s All Sufficient Grace
ALL SUFFICIENT GRACE*
God is able to make all grace abound toward you; that you, always having all-sufficiency in all things, may abound to every good word and work.” —2 Corinthians 9:8
All-sufficiency in all things! Believer! Surely you are “thoroughly furnished!” Grace is no scanty thing, doled out in pittances. It is a glorious treasury, which [...]
A Query for my Reformed Theologian and Pastor Friends:
In the “multitude of counselors” there is safety. We have had some encounters recently which greatly disturb us as Reformed believers and I am sure you have likewise encountered these things in your ministries. I was reminded recently that there are “many” who hold themselves out to be “teachers” but are rather “babes” in knowledge [...]

Satan, a defeated foe…
joany, Editor-Publisher
“Heavenly Notes”
May 2007
In counseling we often hear from the counselee (believer) that he/she feels “defeated” and cannot get a grasp on Romans 12:31 “If God is for us, who can be against us? Because they carry around old baggage of their belief of “Satan’s control” over their lives and the misunderstanding [...]

“Although never our personal choice, it is frequently God’s plan that his children walk through storms and difficulties. Using the picture presented in Psalm 57, readers will discover the secret of experiencing God’s presence and comfort in trial and will grow in their appreciation of his purposes in their lives.”_Elyse Fitzpatrick

Ministering to Sisters in Love
One of the most often-asked questions I receive is from sisters inquiring about various women teachers, their books, studies, websites and ministries. Many of these inquiries come from sisters who are novices in doctrine and are sifting through the plethora of Christian books and study guides seeking what is good to teach, study or read. [...]

“Praise Jehovah. Praise God in His sanctuary; praise Him in the expanse of His power.” Psalm 150:1
Meditate on this power of God, and press it often upon your minds. We reason many things of God that we do not practically suck the comfort of, for lack of deep thoughts of it, and frequent inspection into [...]

As I embark upon my 2007 New Year resolution to read the Works of BB Warfield, I came upon this in my “article” folder and thought “well done” BB, and it served as another encouragement to reading. May it be that these great theologians will be read by all of His people for their good [...]
