You need to click on the link below and to read the blog post by my friend Tim Bayly in which he reprints the commencement remarks by Noah Riner at Dartmouth.

His clear and powerful presentation of the gospel in spite of what will be certain retribution, is a clear seizing of the moment. He was not over the top, not speaking to

I pray that you, like me, will remember his words when you are next running through the next controversy or wrong that was done to you.

This is true character.

"The heart is the main thing in true religion...It is the hinge and turning-point in the condition of man's soul. If the heart is alive to God and quickened by the Spirit, the man is a living Christian. If the heart is dead and has not the Spirit, the man is dead before God." (J.C. Ryle)

Simple yet cutting to the heart. Excellent!

"Our object should not be to have scripture on our side but to be on the side of scripture; and however dear any sentiment may have become by being long entertained, so soon as it is seen to be contrary to the Bible, we must be prepared to abandon it without hesitation."

Wow, that's really awesome. I say similar things often in my Philosophy classes, but that only reaches about 10 people. This guy did it in front of thousands, I'm sure.

I read Noah Riner's speech in the Washington Times last week. It was powerful. The kid had guts. Praise God for his faith, courage and testimony!

"Let your Morning Thoughts, and your last Evening Thoughts, be what shall become of you to all Eternity." -- Matthew Poole

My RUF minister read that to us last week . . . it's still very humbling to re-read it.

Oh make this heart rejoice or ache; / Decide this doubt for me; / And if it be not broken, break -- / And heal it, if it be. ~William Cowper
