“Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him.” — 1 John 2:15 Those who struggle with habitual sin are keenly aware of the despair and fatigue that comes from trying harder and harder to control the desire to do what is wrong in the eyes of God. For this person, there be times of limited success in overcoming sin, but eventually he/she falls back again into unhealthy patterns. In "The Expulsive Power of a New Affection", Thomas Chalmers argues that no matter how hard we may try, we’ll never overcome habitual sin in our lives unless we switch our affections from the world to Jesus Christ. Thankfully Christ loved us first and is more than willing to set us free if we’d only realize the true Gospel power that we can all have in our lives today.

Excerpt from The Pilgrim Faith In a few years the three-hundredth anniversary of the landing of the Pilgrim Fathers at Plymouth will be celebrated. In anticipation of this event, and for its own sake as well, it is fitting that an estimate of the achievements of the Congregationalists in America and of their representatives in foreign lands should be made. This is undertaken in the following pages. No attempt has been made to write a history of the churches that hold the Pilgrim Faith nor to discuss the form of church government which they maintained. Nor has the subject been treated exhaustively. Many events and names have been omitted, not because they have been forgotten, but on account of space limitations. We have endeavored to give prominence to those movements and leaders which represent in a typical way the genius of the Pilgrim Faith and exemplify its contribution to the spiritual history of the last three centuries.

An ambitious new history of the Pilgrims and Plymouth Colony, published for the 400th anniversary of the Mayflower’s landing In 1620, separatists from the Church of England set sail across the Atlantic aboard the Mayflower. Understanding themselves as spiritual pilgrims, they left to preserve their liberty to worship God in accordance with their understanding of the Bible. There exists, however, an alternative, more dispiriting version of their story. In it, the Pilgrims are religious zealots who persecuted dissenters and decimated the Native peoples through warfare and by stealing their land. The Pilgrims’ definition of liberty was, in practice, very narrow. Drawing on original research using underutilized sources, John G. Turner moves beyond these familiar narratives in his sweeping and authoritative new history of Plymouth Colony. Instead of depicting the Pilgrims as otherworldly saints or extraordinary sinners, he tells how a variety of English settlers and Native peoples engaged in a contest for the meaning of American liberty.
