The Bible Teaches Permanent Justification, Eternal Security, Unconditional Security, and Once Saved, Always Saved
Several years ago, I read through my entire Bible on the side in addition to everything else I do and with the sole purpose of looking for everything it said about the security of salvation. I read a few books on it. I read the criticism of that doctrine. I prepared hundreds of powerpoint slides […]
“I’m Gunna Use Worldly Lust to Lure Kids to Christian College”
A few months ago now, someone I don’t really even know sent me a hyperlink to see a new promotional video for my alma mater, Maranatha Baptist Bible College. Yes, I went there. I lived in Watertown for 13 years. My dad, sister, brother, and I all graduated from there. I graduated from the academy, […]
When I Left Fundamentalism part four
When someone speaks of fundamentalism today, he really doesn’t speak of some kind of monolithic, single, coherent group. However, I often wonder why it matters if fundamentalism is “fragmented.” Are we to expect unity among fundamentalists? And if fundamentalism is fragmented, what is causing it? Doctrinal differences? Politics? There shouldn’t be disunity where there shouldn’t […]

Criticizing Professor Wallace part four
Fifteen years ago Professor Daniel Wallace from Dallas Theological Seminary wrote the essay, “Inspiration, Preservation, and New Testament Textual Criticism.” In this now four part series, I have essentially, based upon Wallace’s recommendation, answered that article. I have contended that perfect preservation of God’s Word is both the Scriptural and the historic doctrine. He sent […]
Criticizing Professor Wallace part three
In 1991 Grace Theological Seminary of Winona Lake, IN published a book, New Testament Essays in Honor of Homer A. Kent, Jr, in honor of their longtime professor. Included in that book and then later reproduced in the Grace Theological Journal from Winona Lake, IN was an article written by Wallace entitled, “Inspiration, Preservation, and […]
Criticizing Professor Wallace part two
Daniel Wallace Invents New Doctrine The Bible teaches its own perfect preservation. Evidence shows the history of a belief in the perfect preservation of Scripture. We have no historical record of Christians not believing the doctrine of perfect preservation until the 19th century. Enter Daniel Wallace. He contends that history of the perfect preservation doctrine […]
Criticizing Professor Wallace
As you peruse Scripture, you won’t find a God-ordained office of “professor.” You won’t see a single mention of “scholar.” In Ephesians 4, God didn’t give His church “educators.” Did God know what He was doing? Could He have somehow performed a glitch in His plan? Could He not have foreseen an age of advanced […]
