The Epistle of James is now Available!
October 3, 2017 by Sam Storms
Several weeks ago I announced that my entire series of sermon notes on the book of Hebrews was available on my website. Today I’m happy to tell you that all twenty-two lessons on the book of James are now posted. If you are unfamiliar about how to access these documents, simply click on Resources at the top of the Home page, and then on Articles. Look under Biblical Studies, and at the bottom of the list you will see both Hebrews and James. These twenty-two articles are essentially a verse-by-verse analysis of James. I hope and pray you will find them helpful in your life or ministry, or in both.
The Most Serious and Severe Departure from the Faith in Our Day

The Most Serious and Severe Departure from the Faith in Our Day
By: Sam Storms
Heresy abounds. It always has and always will, until such time as Jesus returns and exposes the misguided theological fabrications of men and women and vindicates the truth of his Word. In our day, there are many heretical and deviant notions circulating within the professing evangelical church. But I am persuaded that the most serious and severe departure from biblical faith in our day is the repudiation of the truth of penal substitutionary atonement (together with the...Read More ➔

My bad! Wrong endorsement!

My bad! Wrong endorsement!
By: Sam Storms
This is the sort of thing that happens more often than not as one gets older. That’s the only excuse I can come up with for having posted the incorrect endorsement for Jason DeRouchie’s new book, How to Understand and Apply the Old Testament: Twelve Steps from Exegesis to Theology (Presbyterian & Reformed, 2017). Or maybe it was just late at night, following a long and exhausting day. In any case, the endorsement that was posted earlier today was actually...Read More ➔

One of the many reasons for this is the remarkable faculty that God has brought to BCS. Two of those men are Andrew David Naselli and Jason S. DeRouchie. This past week their companion volumes on NT and OT exegesis were released by Presbyterian & Reformed Publishing Company. Both are in hardback. Andy’s NT volume...Read More ➔

We Will See Christ’s Glory!
By: Sam Storms
Today is Good Friday, the day on which Jesus was crucified. Prior to this, as Jesus sat with his disciples in the upper room, he said something in his prayer to the Father that calls for our serious and joyful consideration – “Father, I desire that they also, whom you have given me, may be with me where I am, to see my glory that you have given me because you loved me before the foundation of the world” (John 17:24).

Pondering the Great Love with which God Loved Us

We find ourselves today well into the events of Holy Week. I think it would be of great spiritual benefit to pause and consider something Jesus said as he sat with his disciples in the upper room on that night when Judas would betray him into the hands of his enemies.

10 Things You should Know about the Judgment of the Believer
By: Sam Storms
The single most explicit biblical text on the judgment that awaits every Christian is found in 2 Corinthians 5:9-10. There Paul writes this: “So whether we are at home or away, we make it our aim to please him. For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, so that each one may receive what is due for what he has done in the body, whether good or evil.” Continue reading . . .
