God Has Exalted His Name and Word

God Has Exalted His Name and Word:
by Jon Bloom"
'You have exalted above all things your name and your word.' (Ps. 138:2)
In the beginning was the Word
And the Word was with God and the Word was God
And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we have seen his glory,
Glory as of the only Son from the Father, full of grace and truth.

Though he was in the form of God
He did not count equality with God a thing to be grasped,
But made himself nothing, taking the form of a servant,
Being born in the likeness of men. And being found in human form,
He humbled himself by becoming obedient to the point of death, even death on a cross.

Therefore God has highly exalted him
And bestowed on him the name that is above every name,
So that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow
In heaven and on earth and under the earth,
And every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord,
To the glory of God the Father.
John 1:1, 14; Philippians 2:6-11

Questions and Answers with Jerry Bridges, Part 1 - Desiring God

Questions and Answers with Jerry Bridges, Part 1: "
Jerry Bridges was in the area earlier this Fall to speak at Faith Community Church in Hudson, Wisconsin. He gave a Saturday seminar on 'Respectable Sins,' and then preached the Sunday service on 'The Gospel in Everyday Life.'

As one DG staffer recently referred to him, Jerry is a 'gospel statesman,' a man who has persevered in and earned a name for teaching, defending and living by the beautifully basic and ever-applicable message of Christ's love for sinners.

During his visit, Jerry graciously agreed to a quick video interview with us about the gospel (and a couple other things). This is the first of three posts featuring his answers.


How would you state the gospel in 30 seconds or less?











What would you tell someone who feels too familiar with the gospel?
