In addition to the Bavinck posts I’ve recently been posting short quotes from William Cowper’s (Bishop of Galloway) commentary Patmos (1623) over at my blog. Cowper’s exposition is very devotional, pastoral, and great for sound bites. Check it out.
Rev. 6:9 “The Altar”
[Christ] must be the altar, because the altar sanctifies the sacrifice. Heb. 9:14, “For he offered himself by his eternal Spirit.”

I appeal to you, brothers, to watch out for those who cause divisions and create obstacles contrary to the doctrine that you have been taught; avoid them. For such persons do not serve our Lord Christ, but their own appetites, and by smooth talk and flattery they deceive the hearts of the naïve. (Romans 16:17-18)
