"Justification by Faith: From Wittenberg to Rwanda!" by Dr Mike Bird

Ever since Reformation, the doctrine of "justification by faith" has been judged to be the criteria by which the church stands or falls. Specifically, the notion that God justifies the ungodly and not the righteous, is a cornerstone of the gospel. God does not announce that the righteous are truly righteous, rather, on the basis of Jesus' atoning death and glorious resurrection, and through the instrument of faith, sinful men and women are incorporated into the new redemptive moment God reveals in his Son. We become right with God because we are clothed with Christ. We are not in the process of becoming righteous, because we are identified with and participate in the Righteous One, we cannot be any more righter than we are.

"The Merits of a Blind Faith" by Phil Wilson

Christians are often at pains to point out that, contrary to popular perception, Christian faith is not blind but rather rests upon a solid foundation of evidence and reason. Yet, there is a place for blind faith in some measure, for did not Jesus say to Thomas “Blessed are those who do not see and yet believe”? John’s gospel is written so that its readers might believe that Jesus is the Christ and so have life through his name, and narrates the signs Jesus did so that all may have reason for believing. Yet, it also seems to suggest that it is a superior faith that does not merely believe on the basis of sight, but even further believes without sight as well. Why may this be so?

"Reflection on Psalm 90" by Dr Alan Stanley

As another year comes to a close you’re probably saying, “This year went so fast.” I used to wonder if the years slowed down at some point but enough years have gone by to convince me that it’s not going to happen. They just get faster and faster. Do the arithmetic and work out how many years it’s taken you to get to this point and then double it. There’s nothing surer, like the return journey in a car, those second set of years will role by quicker than the first.
