“The just shall live by faith”— A Study of the Relationship of Faith to Salvation in its Justifying, Sanctifying, and Glorifying Fulness, part 2
Before getting into my post, as an Eagle Scout, let me mention that the Boy Scouts are considering the acceptance of sodomites in their organization. This is an awful idea–they would be asking for an increase in child molestation, and sharing a tent with a sodomite, not to mention the group showers, etc. out in […]
A Really Nice, Gentle, Loving Open Letter, Because That’s What I’m Calling It, to Kevin Bouder (sic)
Dear Kevin, I like reading you, your (sic) a good writer, and by your own admission, you are well read in so many different philosophers, Hegal (sic) being one. Don’t think that anyone is attempting to embarras (sic) anyone with so many sic erat scriptem (sic). I’m just trying to be sure to be careful […]
How Would Jesus or Paul Give Evangelicals Their Opportunity to Change?
We don’t have to guess at how Jesus or Paul dealt with people teaching error, because we can read it in the Bible. They had plenty of opportunities and we are left with lots of examples. Paul wrote to the Thessalonians, “Prove all things; hold fast that which is good” (1 Thessalonians 5:21). “All things” […]
Faith Is Not A Work
Before I launch into today’s obsession (which I’ve been told must be myself looking to disabuse everyone else in the world of their errors, as I cloister in a pristine perch, breathing pure spiritual air), I refer you to an amazing article by David Mamet, whom some of you might recognize as an excellent wordsmith. […]
“The just shall live by faith”— A Study of the Relationship of Faith to Salvation in its Justifying, Sanctifying, and Glorifying Fulness, part 1
The post below is the first, Lord willing, of a series I will do on the relationship of faith and salvation. The study took me a number of months, is part of my Ph. D. dissertation, and was spiritually refreshing and a definite blessing. I wanted to first note, however, that Tuesday was the 40th […]
R.I.P. Separation in Fundamentalism
Attending a fundamentalist college, I heard some teaching about separation. In hindsight, it wasn’t anything clear or systematic. I was never required to read one book on it. Now I know that there was little written on it anyway, maybe one book that dealt with it in any serious way, written by Ernest Pickering (since […]
Lance Armstrong, Yawn: Or the Parallel Between Him and Fundagelicals
Before you read this post, since I don’t come in usually until Monday, please go to Thomas Ross’s new website. Thomas Ross is a rare scholar. He’s far more written than almost anyone already, except for maybe a very few, in all of fundamentalism. I would put him up against any young (or even older) […]
Miscellaneous Notices
I am delighted to announce that, thanks to the help of a brother at Mukwonago Baptist Church, my two websites, the evangelistic page What Must I Do to be Saved? and the Christian page, Theological Compositions, are going to have their resources available at the more user-friendly page http://faithsaves.net. Most of the evangelistic resources are […]
Ecstasy Rampant in Evangelicalism (and Fundamentalism)
Over a year ago, I did a two part series in which I said that evangelicalism and fundamentalism were teeming with ecstatic and demonic influence (part one, part two). This was a major issue at Corinth, so it’s been around for a long time. After all, we do wrestle against spiritual wickedness. Confusing spirituality is […]
David’s Killer Census as a Paradigm for Applying Scripture
You know the passage that says taking a census is wrong. Remember? Right. Nothing in the Bible says taking a census is wrong. Yet David was wrong for taking a census in 1 Chronicles 21. God killed 70,000 in Israel with pestilence because of David’s census taking. Other census were taken without such a […]
