Who Is Sovereign over Sovereignty?
What is sovereignty? I’m going to show you the verses in the Bible that have the word “sovereignty” in them. Get your pen and paper. I’m going to type them between two parenthesis. OK, here they are: (_______________________________) Did you get them down? OK, the term “sovereignty” isn’t found in Scripture. Of course, that doesn’t […]
God So Loved the World
This will be a new feature on my blog. I will highlight great English or American sacred choral music.
History and Deuteronomy 22:5 (part two)
Deuteronomy 22:5 isn’t hard to understand. The woman shall not wear that which pertaineth unto a man, neither shall a man put on a woman’s garment: for all that do so are abomination unto the LORD thy God. Even if someone were to rely on modern translations (which are made from the same Hebrew text […]
History and Deuteronomy 22:5 (part one)
Writing on Deuteronomy 22:5 isn’t my favorite activity. However, it is one of the those truths under attack in our culture. It becomes a practical squeaky wheel. Therefore, I keep applying the oil. As it applies to this particular issue, I like this quote from Martin Luther (Luther’s Works, St.L. ed., vol. 9, pg. 825): […]
Whose Fault Was the Mortgage Crisis? Read this New York Times Article from 1999
Read this archived NY Times article from 1999 to understand who gets big credit for the mortgage crisis that has caused our current financial mess. The tell-tale paragraph reads: Fannie Mae, the nation’s biggest underwriter of home mortgages, has been under increasing pressure from the Clinton Administration to expand mortgage loans among low and moderate […]
A Defense of the Peter Masters’ Article with Criticism of its Bad Reviews part two
Quite a few reviews have been written for Peter Masters’ article, “The Merger of Calvinism with Worldlinessm”and mainly negative. Douglas Wilson’s Review I have enjoyed reading Douglas Wilson in the past and using the Canon Press logic curriculum. I watched his debate with Christopher Hitchens and learned some helpful truths in dealing with atheists, which […]
A Defense of the Peter Masters’ Article with Criticism of its Bad Reviews
One of the most famous churches in the world is the Metropolitan Tabernacle in London, England, where for thirty-eight years (1854-1892) Charles Haddon Spurgeon pastored and preached. By the time we get to the late 1960s, the church had shrunk down to a tiny membership. Then Peter Masters became its pastor in 1970 and, despite […]
Majoring on the Minors
A few days ago, I received a nasty comment here from ‘anonymous,’ and he started it with some sarcasm about my majoring on the minors. Don’t look for the comment. I didn’t post it. It was error-filled, so I wasn’t interested in anyone entertaining its content, especially since he wouldn’t own it. But it did […]
The Issue of Designed Gender Distinction: Answering Comments or Questions
I commented on the blog of a young man who is leaving fundamentalism. One of his big criticisms was “standards.” In the comment section, another pastor who blogs, Will at Reforming Baptist, wrote this: KB: “On the pants/skirt, I don’t think the position gets explained exegetically and historically well enough, but your position will fail […]
Two Obvious Contemporary Theological Contradictions and their Meaning part two
God “cannot deny himself” (2 Timothy 2:13). “Let God be true, but every man a liar” (Romans 3:4). We should not expect contradictions. This is not the nature of God. Jesus said, “I am the truth” (John 14:6). There isn’t more than one truth. From this perfect unity of God’s attributes and revelation of Himself […]
