Douglas Wilson on Beer

As alcohol is being restored to its proper place in the church there are numerous dangers that must be avoided. One is believing drinking is a sin. Another is believing that you are more holy because you can handle alcohol. A third is thinking that freedom in Christ to drink means that I can dishonor my parents (Exodus 20:12) and my elders. (Leviticus 19:32) In the video below Douglas Wilson tells us what his favorite beers are and tell us to be careful not to be snobs.

Heidelberg Catechism

Heidelberg Catechism: Lord’s Day 11

Q: 29. Why is the Son of God called “Jesus”, that is a Savior?
A: Because he saves us, and delivers us from our sins; and likewise, because we ought not to seek, neither can find salvation in any other.

Q: 30. Do such then believe in Jesus the only Savior, who seek their salvation and welfare of saints, of themselves, or anywhere else?
A: They do not; for though they boast of him in words, yet in deeds they deny Jesus the only deliverer and Savior; for one of these two things must be true, that either Jesus is not a complete Savior; or that they, who by a true faith receive this Savior, must find all things in him necessary to their salvation.
