What the Evangelicals Have On the Fundamentalists
Sometimes evangelicals are called new-evangelicals. Why? At one time, everyone who believed the gospel (the only Scriptural one) were evangelicals. Then liberalism came, a group split and they were called fundamentalists, hence, fundamentalism. Then fundamentalism split over separation issues. The less separated called themselves evangelicals. The fundamentalists called them new-evangelicals. (Incidentally, because of history, everybody […]
Any Fault in Fideism?
In the very last paragraph, next to last sentence, of our book Thou Shalt Keep Them, I write: “The only Scriptural approach to the doctrine of the preservation of Scripture is the fideistic approach.” I like the sound of fideistic versus evidentialistic or rationalistic, don’t you?

Instead, I now work at striking the death-blow to the basic hatred which infests the human heart and causes such tragedies. […]

GREAT READ! Not often do scholarly articles appear on modesty. This essay comes with a disclaimer, but at least approaches the subject in a thoughtful manner—MODESTY Perhaps you aren’t a fan of satire, but for a good chuckle at the expense of both the outsourcing controversy and Charismatic prayer lines, see this today: OUTSOURCING? And […]
