Welcome to blog and May blog from Doug Wills.com.

This audio is brought to you by Canon Press.

Before we get started, I wanted to make sure you knew about Canon Press's line of Christian classics called the Christian Heritage Series.

Almost every month this year we've released a classic from Christian history to remind you that you inherited a family in Christ that spans centuries.

Get to know them. This series aims to do just that.

Introduce readable Christian classics to ordinary Christians, the kind our fathers in the faith fought for.

Head to Canaan Press.com today to see classics from Martin Luther, George Herbert, Jonathan Edwards, G.K. Chesterton, and more. I'm here to inform you that Tim Keller has his thumb on the scales.

Introduction I recently saw a quote from Tim Keller Introduction

I recently saw a quote from Tim Keller that was making the rounds

and I wanted to interact with it for just a scoshy bit.

I will let you judge the quote for yourself in just a hot minute,

so cool your baby jads.

But it appears to me that Tim Keller was looking to create some sort of intellectual space

in which an average moderate even jelly coal could see his way to a vote for Joe Biden.

It seems to me that the basic structure of this statement is to provide those of the leftward

drift with some sort of cover.

Anyway, you may judge the matter for yourself. Here's the quote.

The Bible binds my conscience to care for the poor, but it does not tell me the best practical way to do it.

Any particular strategy, high taxes and government services versus low taxes and private charity,

may be good and wise, and may even be somewhat inferred from other things the Bible teaches.

But they are not directly commanded, and therefore we cannot insist that all Christians as a matter of conscience follow one or the other.
