The Bible As Scientific Challenge to Climate Change Speculation
An American actor spoke to the World Government Summit in Dubai this weekend. The Associated Press reports: Hollywood star Robert De Niro took aim at the Trump administration’s stance on climate change, telling a packed audience in the Middle East that he was visiting from a “backward” country suffering from “temporary insanity.” De Niro said: I […]
Abiding in Christ: What Does it Mean? part 9 of 9: Miscellaneous Notes & Conclusion
The Conclusion: What it Means to Abide in Christ All believers abide in Christ; they persevere in characteristic obedience to Him and fellowship with Him through His Word (John 17:17; Ephesians 5:26; 1 Peter 2:2).

Prayer Versus a Wish
Sometimes you want things to work out for someone a certain way, and the appropriate statement seems to have become, “I’ll pray for that to work out in that certain way.” However, you don’t know if it is God’s will.

Who Causes Division? The Claim for the High Ground of Unity
If you don’t know what else to say, and you’re losing the argument, claim the high ground of unity and accuse your opponent of division. Running for president in 2000, George W.

Abiding in Christ: What Does it Mean? part 8 of 9: Exposition of John 15:6-11
6 If a man abide not in me, he is cast forth as a branch, and is withered; and men gather them, and cast them into the fire, and they are burned. The one who does not, as a summary of his life, abide (aorist tense), or continue faithful to Christ, is cast into hell fire, where […]
The Suicide of Evangelicalism
Truth is true. You can believe it like the dismount in the crunch position in a fall from El Capitan in Yosemite. There isn’t going to be a nice landing. It’s true. It’s not kinda true. The Bible is true like that, even more so, if it were possible to be more true. Truth is […]
Dan Barker – Thomas Ross Debate Transcript, “The Old Testament is Mainly Fiction, not Fact.”

A Case Study for Biblical Separation: James White and Michael Brown, According to Phil Johnson
I would be fine with Phil Johnson being right about separation and fine with James White too, if what they believed and practiced was biblical about separation. I often check the old pyromaniacs twitter feed, because of the interesting links and comments of either Phil Johnson or Dan Phillips. Through that feed, I’ve noticed the […]
