Dan Barker – Thomas Ross Debate Transcript, “The Old Testament is Mainly Fiction, not Fact.”
I am thankful to announce that some fellow believers in the Lord have helped me to be able to publish a transcript of my first debate with Dan Barker of the Freedom From Religion Foundation, “The Old Testament is Mainly Fiction, not Fact.” (The second debate is also getting transcribed.) I believe that this debate […]
A Case Study for Biblical Separation: James White and Michael Brown, According to Phil Johnson
I would be fine with Phil Johnson being right about separation and fine with James White too, if what they believed and practiced was biblical about separation. I often check the old pyromaniacs twitter feed, because of the interesting links and comments of either Phil Johnson or Dan Phillips. Through that feed, I’ve noticed the […]
Brandenburg-Wilhite Wedding (Now Mr. and Mrs. Derek Wilhite)
My daughter, Julia, married Derek Wilhite last Thursday at noon in Berkeley at the Brazilian area of Tilden Park. Here is the wedding. You’ll find some interesting pictures and videos already online, and perhaps we’ll share some more. Here is a link to a video of the sendoff.
Abiding in Christ: What Does it Mean? part 7 of 9: Exposition of John 15:4-5
4 Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it abide in the vine; no more can ye, except ye abide in me. The aorist imperative “abide” here indicates the characteristic of the whole life of the saint, not a momentary action, or repeated points of faith-decisions […]
The Negativity of the Holy Spirit
Since the Holy Spirit is spirit after all, so we can’t see Him, He is easier for men to mold into what they prefer Him to be. He is Who He is, which is what scripture says about Him. The Holy Spirit, yes, gives joy, peace, those fruit of the Spirit, which people want. They […]
Faithful Flooring
A brother in my church, Jim Appel, has a ministry called “Faithful Flooring,” through which he uses his extensive ability in flooring and remodeling to help the Lord’s churches and saints. He states his goal as the following: My desire is to encourage Christian churches, camps, colleges, and other local-church ministries by using the abilities […]
The Ministry of Satan as Caused or Allowed by God
Scripture has everything anyone needs to know about Satan. Whatever we can know about Satan, we get from scripture and there is no other source. Satanology is a subcategory of angelology, the doctrine of angels, which has far less biblical source material as a basis than, for instance, the doctrine of God and the doctrine […]
Interpreting Trump and the Never or Anti Trumpers
Watch the latest video at foxbusiness.com If you lived in the biblical time of the judges of the Old Testament book of Judges, would you have voted for every one of those judges? That includes Samson by the way. I’m thinking, no. And yet, when you read Judges, you vote for them. You could say […]
Abiding in Christ: What Does it Mean? part 6 of 9: Exposition of John 15:1-3
Based on the examination in the first five parts, the exegesis of John 15:1-11 (cf. v. 16’s use of meno) follows. 1 I am the true vine, and my Father is the husbandman. The Lord here sets up the comparison He will maintain through the following pericope. As the vine is the source of life for its branches, so Christ […]
Beauty, Worldly Lust, Effeminate and Truth in the Real World
The well-known reformed theologian, R. C. Sproul, founder of Ligonier Ministries, some of you readers know died on December 14 this year. I appreciated his defense and exposition of many important aspects of the biblical and historic doctrine of the Christian faith. He impacted much with perhaps his most well known book, The Holiness of […]
