However, I noticed (as many others would) that the newer publications and churches seemed to "break" with the spirituality of the creeds and confessions of days gone by. Hence I gave examples of SOME of the (apparently legitimate) "activities" that are allowed in churches and on the PB.
Nothing else for me to add, just an observation and a query about the need to subscribe to the WCF or BCF in this board...
I agree with you assessment that some of Reformed spirituality today is waining into a dead orthodoxy, though I'm not sure they are completely dead yet. I think it is because we have lost our heritage, particularly the Puritan heritage of experimentally applying the truths of God to daily living (and which I think the PB is also trying to recapture). I think that the renewed interest in Puritan literature today among Reformed folk is providing some renewal in this area. I think we won't understand the full effects of it til later though.
Very true. The Puritans wer emasters of this. I fail at this every day.... Oh for more grace!Originally posted by Peters
I agree with you, Patrick. I think also that this decline in spirituality is due to a lack of meditation, contemplation, thinking on the truths of Scripture, so that they are made alive in the affections of the believer by the Spirit of God.
