Oasis of Hope in Tijuana, Mexico: Scamming Desperate Cancer Patients with Quackery
People who get cancer are often very desperate. They are in a very difficult situation. Furthermore, medical science does not make promises it cannot keep. Our currently limited state of medical knowledge means that significant numbers of people with cancer will die from the disease. While, by the grace of God and through the practice […]
Unaffiliated Baptist Churches: Analysis of the Emphasis, pt. 4
part one part two part three The emphasis of unaffiliated Baptist churches relates to history. These churches, like true churches all the way back to the first church in Jerusalem, have believed in the autonomy of each church with Jesus as the Head of each. Each church was sufficient. Each independent, […]
Unaffiliated Baptist Churches: Analysis of the Emphasis, pt. 3
part one part two Without being unaffiliated, a church will disobey something in the Bible. The history of unaffiliated Baptist churches is essentially seeing a disobedience to scripture that can’t be avoided without ceasing the affiliation. Those churches recognized the necessity to be pure for the Lord and turned unaffiliated for that purpose. Unaffiliated […]

Unaffiliated Baptist Churches: Analysis of the Emphasis, pt. 2
Our church is an unaffiliated Baptist church and fellowships with other unaffiliated Baptist churches, which I characterized or defined in part one. Compared to other types of Baptist churches, there are not a large number of unaffiliated churches, but if you are unaffiliated or are thinking about becoming unaffiliated, you won’t be alone. I […]
Unaffiliated Baptist Churches: Analysis of the Emphasis
To obey the Bible, I don’t know how a church isn’t an unaffiliated Baptist church. Maybe churches that aren’t unaffiliated haven’t considered it, but if they did, they too would become unaffiliated if their concern was obedience to the Bible. Before our church became an unaffiliated Baptist church, there was always conviction for me that […]
Bishop G. Handley Moule: Keswick Quietist Leader, part 2 of 2
Furthermore, despite the fearful warnings of Scripture against such practices, and the terrible opportunities they gave to the devil, Moule also claimed to communicate with the dead and offered prayer for them, in a manner reminiscent of the interactions with the dead of the spiritualist Higher Life pillars Mr. and Mrs. Mount-Temple. Moule also commended […]
What Has Happened that the Gospel Has Been So Messed Up by Professing Christians? part two
This is part four of a series of an analysis of the gospel (parts one, two, three). ***** In my first post this week, I began explaining why Christians are perverting the gospel or allowing it to be perverted. Almost all the reasons I gave were theological. Everything is theological, because this is God’s world, […]
What Has Happened that the Gospel Has Been So Messed Up by Professing Christians?
Last week I wrote two posts about so-called gospel declaration in independent Baptist churches (one and two). The warped or corrupt or lacking presentation of Kurt Skelly just represents what’s already all over. It’s bad that he and that whole direction of practice is so admired among independent Baptists or that even those not with […]
