Log of Y2K updates at Phil Johnson's Web site.

===============

FOR THE WEEKS ENDING 30 December 2000:

The long-awaited Johnson Family Christmas letter (2000 edition) is now on line.

Bonus: Our favorite theological article of all time: "God's Indiscriminate Proposals of Mercy," by R. L. Dabney.

===============

FOR THE WEEKS ENDING 9 December 2000:

NOTE: Phil's travels this year have kept him far behind on everything. He probably won't be able to add anything significant to the Web sites until sometime in January. In the meantime, he will try to maintain the bookmarks page and add new links as time allows. And here's an important new addition to : Dennis Swanson, who wrote the marvelous work on Spurgeon's eschatology, has written a second work on the subject, Charles H. Spurgeon and the Nation of Israel: A Non-Dispensational Perspective on a Literal National Restoration.
    Phil has added two articles to his on-line collection as well:
  1. Controverting the Incontrovertible: A Reply to Gary DeMar,
  2. What's All the Controversy About John MacArthur and the Blood of Christ?

    See you next year.

FOR THE WEEK ENDING 7 October 2000:

Phil is back from Italy, and this week he posted some of Spurgeon's accounts of his travels in Italy:

Voices From Pompeii

"Even now, while the ink is flowing from our pen, the Lord may be on his way, and may suddenly appear. In Pompeii's last tremendous hour the bread was in the oven, but the baker never saw it taken from it; the meat was seething in the pot never to be eaten; the slave was at the mill, the prisoner in the dungeon, the traveler at the inn, the money dealer in his treasury, but none of these saw aught of their labors, their pains, their pleasures, or their profits again. The burning dust fell over all, the poisonous vapours sought out every crevice, and the ocean of mud buried inhabitant and habitation, worshipper and temple, worker and all that he had wrought! Should a sudden overthrow come upon us also, are we ready?"

A Sabbath in Rome

"Peter would be filled with wrath at the idolatry which defiles St. Peter's, and Paul would wonder how Pio Nono could dare to claim apostolical succession, when his palaces, and his teachings, and his pretensions are things unknown in the word of God."

===============

FOR THE WEEKS ENDING 30 September 2000:

NOTE: Phil returned from India as planned at the end of July, but various deadlines, trips to Chicago, Alaska, and then Italy—together with other, more mundane, duties—have kept him from adding anything significant to the Web sites these past few weeks. He'll be back from Italy at the end of September, and hopefully adding to the Web site shortly thereafter. Thanks for your extreme patience.

===============

FOR THE WEEK ENDING 1 July 2000:

NOTE: Phil will be in India for the next three weeks, teaching in a series of conferences for church leaders in Pune, Hyderabad, Bangalore, and Chennai. If you are in India and would like to meet Phil, please contact the Grace to India office and ask for a schedule of meetings:

    [email protected], or:

    Phil plans to take the laptop and format some Spurgeon material on the road. Look for more updates to the Web sites when Phil returns.

FOR THE WEEK ENDING 3 June 2000:

Added ten sermons to :

Also, from The Sword and the Trowel

  • A Church We Know of"Let churches do less in criticizing their minister, and do more in praying for him; let them expect less from him and more from God; let them, as a whole, arise and put on strength; let them have no strife but which shall best serve the brotherhood to edification, and they will yet see the windows of heaven opened and a blessing poured out upon them unspeakably beyond their largest hopes."
  • Cold Wax (Sword & Trowel Tract #25)—"No acts of pardon are ever passed on the other side of the grave, but pardons are plentiful on earth."
  • An Interruption ImprovedA few words spoken by Mr. Spurgeon at a prayer-meeting, when a friend had been carried out in a fit.
  • The Massacre of St. Bartholomew"It must not be supposed that in consequence of the respectable appearance which Catholicism is now necessitated to put on that the nature of Popery is changed. It is, and from its organization must continue to be, ambitious of supremacy."
  • Notes of a Late Visit to Paris"It is a long and weary journey from Calais to Paris, just a dreary drag over a huge flat; monotonous as the clergyman's tones at Droneton-in-the-Marsh, and two-thirds as dull as his oft-repeated sermons."
  • A Voice from the Sea"Yea, it shall be at an instant suddenly."—Isaiah 29:5.
    "The Lord sent out a great wind into the sea."—Jonah 1:4.
