The Problem among Independent Baptists with the Gospel, pt. 2
Pre-Part. Part One. The gospel isn’t a range of options between a and b. It’s either a or b. It’s not one or the other that contradict each other, that both could be right. There is no “both could be right” with the gospel. Offering a range is convenient for holding together a coalition, […]
The Problem among Independent Baptists with the Gospel
Last week, I wrote a snoozer post on destructive fellowship in fundamentalism, and emphasized the accommodation or capitulation to something less than a true gospel or a false gospel. My point was that the gospel must come into consideration for fellowship with fundamentalism if fundamentalism is even fundamentalism. If fundamentalism is supposed to be militant, […]
Proof that the Bible is the Word of God from the Book of Daniel
Dear brethren, I have revised and expanded an apologetic composition explaining the evidence for the Bible as the Word of God from the predictive prophecies in the book of Daniel. The occasion for the expansion was my recent debate with Dan Barker of the Freedom From Religion Foundation in conjunction with our church’s campus ministry […]
Against Trump
National Review Online has put together a stream of columns by conservatives against Donald Trump as the Republican candidate for President. It’s worth looking at here. I’m pretty sure they tried to put together their most influential bunch, because some of them I don’t like and others I really do. All things considered, it’s a […]
Destructive Fellowship in Fundamentalism
The New Testament does teach fellowship between churches. In Acts 15, the Jerusalem and Antioch churches tried to get along. It was worth it to try. They got together for the sake of the truth. I can see the Asian churches collecting money for the Jerusalem church in 1 and 2 Corinthians. In 3 […]
Demagogue: Sausage Maker
In my life, I’ve never heard the English word “demagogue” used more in public life than in this presidential election cycle. Demagogue comes from two Greek words, the first, demos, “the people,” as in “democracy,” rule by the people, and agō, “to lead.” No one surpassed Pericles (495-429BC) of Athens in the history of the […]
Join Us in Israel with Samson Tours
[Friday is a Thomas Ross post, so this is Thomas Ross going to Israel, not Kent Brandenburg.] I have had a desire to visit Israel for some time, to see the land of the Abrahamic covenant, the land of the earthly ministry of the Messiah, the Lord Jesus, and the land of the vast majority […]
The Truth Shall Make You Free, pt. 2
Part One When Jesus said “the truth shall make you free” in John 8:32, He was saying that the truth, which was salvation truth found in Him, could set men free from bondage to sin, which would dominate and damn them. The freedom Jesus teaches is freedom. No one can be freer than the freedom […]
The Truth Shall Make You Free, pt. 1
One of the most well-known statements in the Bible Jesus made in John 8:32: And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free. These words are carved in stone on the outside of Berkeley High School in downtown Berkeley, California. We know that Jesus meant that the truth would make someone […]
