Abraham Kuyper

Saturday was Dutch Reformer Abraham Kuyper’s birthday (1837-1920). The man who wrote: “When people recite the Lord’s Prayer, they all pray, ‘Deliver us from the evil one,’ but in free, spontaneous prayers we seldom call upon God to cover us with His shield against the poisonous arrows of Satan. Therefore, if the Kingdom of Christ is to regain its glory also in our eyes, it is imperative that we emphatically insist that Jesus Himself saw His life struggle as one fierce battle against Satan.” George Grant has a brief tribute to him.
