Each of the sixteen pastors who contributed to this work believes that the entire Old Testament, including the Psalms, is inspired by Christ’s Spirit and all of it points forward in some deliberate and meaningful way to the coming of God in the flesh, the Lord Jesus Christ.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo be sure, each psalm has its own immediate context and meaning connected to the human author and his experiences. These are taken seriously and explained in the Study Resource. Yet because of the Spirit’s inspiration, there is much more going on than just human events and emotions. The Bible is God’s self-revelation and the arrival of the Lord Jesus is the pinnacle of that revelation, the wonderful event anticipated throughout the Old Testament period. For that reason, the authors set out to find the connection to Christ in every psalm. This effort finds support in the fact that the book of Psalms is the most-quoted and alluded to Old Testament book by New Testament writers, many times in direct connection to the Savior.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCHRIST IN EVERY PSALM\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is the one aspect that is lacking in many works on the Psalms. Most explainers stay in the Old Testament world of the human writer; only a few make a passing reference to the New Testament and fewer still to the psalms’ relationship to Christ. While some quality studies go out of their way to speak of Christ, they are limited to a small number of psalms. There appears to be no work which makes a point of bringing out Christ in each of the 150 psalms and that is one of the main motivators behind our work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhile not wanting to jump to Christ too fast (thus bypassing the human author’s first meaning) or in a fanciful way, yet in each of the 150 psalms the contributor has labored to find the legitimate Spirit-given pointers to the coming Savior who is both God and Man.

Each of the sixteen pastors who contributed to this work believes that the entire Old Testament, including the Psalms, is inspired by Christ’s Spirit and all of it points forward in some deliberate and meaningful way to the coming of God in the flesh, the Lord Jesus Christ.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo be sure, each psalm has its own immediate context and meaning connected to the human author and his experiences. These are taken seriously and explained in the Study Resource. Yet because of the Spirit’s inspiration, there is much more going on than just human events and emotions. The Bible is God’s self-revelation and the arrival of the Lord Jesus is the pinnacle of that revelation, the wonderful event anticipated throughout the Old Testament period. For that reason, the authors set out to find the connection to Christ in every psalm. This effort finds support in the fact that the book of Psalms is the most-quoted and alluded to Old Testament book by New Testament writers, many times in direct connection to the Savior.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCHRIST IN EVERY PSALM\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is the one aspect that is lacking in many works on the Psalms. Most explainers stay in the Old Testament world of the human writer; only a few make a passing reference to the New Testament and fewer still to the psalms’ relationship to Christ. While some quality studies go out of their way to speak of Christ, they are limited to a small number of psalms. There appears to be no work which makes a point of bringing out Christ in each of the 150 psalms and that is one of the main motivators behind our work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhile not wanting to jump to Christ too fast (thus bypassing the human author’s first meaning) or in a fanciful way, yet in each of the 150 psalms the contributor has labored to find the legitimate Spirit-given pointers to the coming Savior who is both God and Man.

Brother Nymeyer’s insight into the history and use of the Church Order is balanced by a warm love for the church, making this commentary an invaluable guide.

The church is a “glorious body” of those whom the Father has chosen in Christ, whom he has redeemed by the blood of his own dear Son, and whom the Holy Spirit, proceeding from the Father and the Son, will unfailingly gather, protect, and preserve through the ministry of the Word of the gospel.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: justify; text-indent: .5in; line-height: normal;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman';\"\u003eEven though this book deals with a relatively small part of the larger story of Christ’s church-gathering work, what it recounts must be viewed through the lens of this confession regarding the church. The history of the URCNA could be told in a way that fails to see how it belongs to the larger story of the way Christ gathers, defends, and preserves his church throughout history. It could be told in a way that views the URCNA’s formation as merely another chapter in a lamentable history that, as the well-known hymn, \u003ci\u003eThe Church’s One Foundation, \u003c\/i\u003eexpresses it, is often one of schism and distress (“by schisms rent asunder, by heresies distressed”). While the history of the church “militant” is often marked by division and distress, to be sure, it is always a history that is governed by the One who is “worthy to break the seals” of God’s great plan of redemption and re-creation (Rev. 5:5). Christ is the Lord of history, the triumphant Lamb who will not be thwarted in gathering his blood-bought bride, the church. Christ alone builds his church and does so with the promise that the “gates of hell will not prevail” against her (Matt. 16:18). \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: justify; text-indent: .5in; line-height: normal;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman';\"\u003eAccordingly, the title of the book, \u003ci\u003eRoots Renewed, \u003c\/i\u003eaims to remind the reader that the story of the URCNA did not begin in 1995, when a number of CRCNA churches formed a new federation or denomination. The decision to form the URCNA was not made in a vacuum but took place in order to preserve a heritage that was cherished and believed to be worth preserving. This decision was also made, not merely to preserve Reformed churches in their biblical and confessional convictions but to do so with a view to propagating these convictions to future generations until the time of Christ’s coming at the end of this age. The history of the URCNA, therefore, is a history both of preservation and propagation, holding fast to the truths of Scripture and the confessions with a view to proclaiming them to future generations, even to the ends of the earth. Viewed from the standpoint of our confession regarding the church, the URCNA and its history belongs to the story of Christ’s work in gathering, defending, and preserving his church.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman';\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: justify; text-indent: .5in; line-height: normal;\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4 class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: justify; text-indent: .5in; line-height: normal;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman';\"\u003e~ Dr. Cornelis P.

In this fascinating collection of essays, godly men from the United Reformed Churches (URC) join forces to do just that, showing us what God has done for their denomination—their corner of God’s beloved Zion. For the last three decades, the URC has been committed to a tradition of fidelity to the historic Reformed confessions, and for that my heart rejoices. The history of the URC underscores orthodoxy and fidelity to the great tradition of biblical Christianity established by our forefathers. In the Heritage Reformed Congregations in which I serve, we have had the joy of developing a growing relationship with the URC over the years, one which I trust will continue to blossom in future decades (not least in our ecclesiastical partnership with them in NAPARC). Resist the temptation to think that this book is merely a manual of historical curiosities—it certainly is that, most notably in its overview of the history of the Dutch tradition in its manifold diversity from the 1834 \u003ci\u003eAfscheiding\u003c\/i\u003e until today. But it is much more than that. In fact, there is something here for everyone with a passion for theology—treatments on confessionalism, covenant theology, ecclesiology, missions, church planting, and debates about nature versus grace. If you are one of the 25,000 members of the URC, your reading of these essays will help mature your appreciation for your denomination. And if you are, like me, part of a sister denomination, then your appreciation for this federation of churches will be renewed.

And of this community I am and always will be a living member.” \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: justify; text-indent: .5in; line-height: normal;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman';\"\u003eThis confession reminds us that, when we consider any part of the history of Christ’s church, we must view it from the perspective of the Triune God’s purposes to gather, defend, and preserve for himself, from among all the peoples and nations of the earth, a community of believers who were graciously chosen by him unto salvation. The church is a “glorious body” of those whom the Father has chosen in Christ, whom he has redeemed by the blood of his own dear Son, and whom the Holy Spirit, proceeding from the Father and the Son, will unfailingly gather, protect, and preserve through the ministry of the Word of the gospel.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: justify; text-indent: .5in; line-height: normal;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman';\"\u003eEven though this book deals with a relatively small part of the larger story of Christ’s church-gathering work, what it recounts must be viewed through the lens of this confession regarding the church. The history of the URCNA could be told in a way that fails to see how it belongs to the larger story of the way Christ gathers, defends, and preserves his church throughout history. It could be told in a way that views the URCNA’s formation as merely another chapter in a lamentable history that, as the well-known hymn, \u003ci\u003eThe Church’s One Foundation, \u003c\/i\u003eexpresses it, is often one of schism and distress (“by schisms rent asunder, by heresies distressed”). While the history of the church “militant” is often marked by division and distress, to be sure, it is always a history that is governed by the One who is “worthy to break the seals” of God’s great plan of redemption and re-creation (Rev. 5:5). Christ is the Lord of history, the triumphant Lamb who will not be thwarted in gathering his blood-bought bride, the church. Christ alone builds his church and does so with the promise that the “gates of hell will not prevail” against her (Matt. 16:18). \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: justify; text-indent: .5in; line-height: normal;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman';\"\u003eAccordingly, the title of the book, \u003ci\u003eRoots Renewed, \u003c\/i\u003eaims to remind the reader that the story of the URCNA did not begin in 1995, when a number of CRCNA churches formed a new federation or denomination. The decision to form the URCNA was not made in a vacuum but took place in order to preserve a heritage that was cherished and believed to be worth preserving. This decision was also made, not merely to preserve Reformed churches in their biblical and confessional convictions but to do so with a view to propagating these convictions to future generations until the time of Christ’s coming at the end of this age. The history of the URCNA, therefore, is a history both of preservation and propagation, holding fast to the truths of Scripture and the confessions with a view to proclaiming them to future generations, even to the ends of the earth. Viewed from the standpoint of our confession regarding the church, the URCNA and its history belongs to the story of Christ’s work in gathering, defending, and preserving his church.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman';\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: justify; text-indent: .5in; line-height: normal;\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4 class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: justify; text-indent: .5in; line-height: normal;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman';\"\u003e~ Dr. Cornelis P.

In this fascinating collection of essays, godly men from the United Reformed Churches (URC) join forces to do just that, showing us what God has done for their denomination—their corner of God’s beloved Zion. For the last three decades, the URC has been committed to a tradition of fidelity to the historic Reformed confessions, and for that my heart rejoices. The history of the URC underscores orthodoxy and fidelity to the great tradition of biblical Christianity established by our forefathers. In the Heritage Reformed Congregations in which I serve, we have had the joy of developing a growing relationship with the URC over the years, one which I trust will continue to blossom in future decades (not least in our ecclesiastical partnership with them in NAPARC). Resist the temptation to think that this book is merely a manual of historical curiosities—it certainly is that, most notably in its overview of the history of the Dutch tradition in its manifold diversity from the 1834 \u003ci\u003eAfscheiding\u003c\/i\u003e until today. But it is much more than that. In fact, there is something here for everyone with a passion for theology—treatments on confessionalism, covenant theology, ecclesiology, missions, church planting, and debates about nature versus grace. If you are one of the 25,000 members of the URC, your reading of these essays will help mature your appreciation for your denomination. And if you are, like me, part of a sister denomination, then your appreciation for this federation of churches will be renewed. So let these gifted writers, pastors, and theologians tell you the story of God’s great work among His people for the last thirty years. Your mind will be enlightened and your soul edified.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4 class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eJoel R.
