(photo: Gleneagle yesterday) I listen carefully to what God the Lord is saying, for he speaks peace to his faithful people.
LORD, who may abide in Your tent? Who may dwell on Your holy hill? He who walks with integrity, and works righteousness, and speaks truth in his heart.
The mouth of the righteous man utters wisdom, and his tongue speaks what is just.
David says the same thing when he speaks of the blessedness of the man to whom God credits righteousness apart from works
For with the heart a person believes (adheres to, trusts in, and relies on Christ) and so is justified (declared righteous, acceptable to God), and with the mouth he confesses (declares openly and speaks out freely his faith) and confirms [his] salvation.
All this energy issues from Christ: God raised him from death and set him on a throne in deep heaven, in charge of running the universe, everything from galaxies to governments, no name and no power exempt from his rule. And not just for the time being, but forever. He is in charge of it all, has the final word on everything. At the center of all this, Christ rules the church. The church, you see, is not peripheral to the world; the world is peripheral to the church. The church is Christ's body, in which he speaks and acts, by which he fills everything with his presence.
Psalm 85:8 Psalm 15:2 Psalm 37:30 Romans 4:6 Romans 10:10 Ephesians 1:20
