“Coming to Jesus Christ is coming on His terms, not our own. The person who comes to Christ comes in humility, meekness, a needy beggar in spirit who hungers and thirsts for God’s righteousness, who cries for mercy, and is willing to be hated, reviled, and persecuted for the sake of his Lord (Matt. 5:3-12). The Lord may not take away comforts, money, or relationships with others, but all of those things-and everything else besides-must be given over to Him, to do with as He pleases. Otherwise He is not Lord, no matter how much allegiance to Him is professed.” John MacArthur

I recently got a matching pair of Bibles for Jenn and I. They are made by R.L. Allan, not a well known Bible maker in the U.S., but they do have something of a reputation among those searching for quality made Bibles. The company that makes is in Glasglow Scotland, bound in Highland Goatskin. They look like glowing bricks of gold. I took a few photos.
