God Designed Roles, Their Symbolism, and Sodomy
God designed male and female. He also designed each for a different role. Being male and female looks different because they are made for two different purposes. Sure, there is similarity. They are both human being, man and woman. They are both made in the image of God. They are both equal in essence. Their […]
Greater Works: What Are We to Expect?
You’ve got a Bible, and now it must look like you represent it. Anyone reading the Bible will see that Jesus said the following in John 14:12: Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; […]
You Need Filtered and Accountable Electronic Devices, part 1 of 2
Nobody who is reading this post should be doing so on a device that has neither an Internet filter and/or accountability. Christians especially should never use a personal computer, phone, or other device with Internet access that is not protected from the evils the world, the flesh, and the devil make easily available on the Internet. […]
A Review of Kevin Bauder’s Article on 1 Corinthians 12:13
In some previous very recent posts, I talked about an article that relied on almost no exegesis to declare a doctrinal position, and now I’m going to write about one that does the very rare and pleasant act of dealing with a text in order to come to one. I applaud Kevin Bauder for looking […]
Corrupting Gospel Repentance: the FBFI and Minci’s Response
In response to Pastor Brandenburg’s article here, John Mincy engaged in an interview where he gave a weak response, available here. The response begins by stating: “A blogger [Pastor Brandenburg] has since picked up on it with an article demonstrating a poor understanding of Dr. Mincy’s point.” I assume that he is referring to Pastor […]
The Keswick Christ-life-other alleged Scriptural support: part 4 of 4 in Does Christ live the Christian Life for the Christian? The Keswick View of Galatians 2:20 Examined
A few other passages can be employed to attempt to support the doctrine that the Lord Jesus Christ lives the Christian life instead of the believer. However, no text in Scripture actually affirms such a proposition. 2 Corinthians 4:10-11 refers to “the life . . . of Jesus.” However, the […]
The Gospel and Separation: The Appearance on the Ground
Some reading “the debate” about the gospel and the place and meaning of repentance relegate it to just semantics and “can’t we all just get along.” This to them is nothing more than an intramural skirmish between fellowshiping brethren. That’s how some choose to characterize these differences over the gospel, but it isn’t how I […]
Keswick and Pentecostal Hermeneutics: Experience Over Grammatical Exegesis
Keswick did not interpret Scripture solely based on the grammatical-historical significance of passages. On the contrary, experience was employed as an extra-biblical hermeneutic with which to interpret Scripture. Consequently, it is unsurprising that Keswick taught: “There are times in our Christian life in which we have . . . to . . . accept as […]
Repentance Isn’t This Nor Is It This Complicated — Please
My attention was drawn to an article at Proclaim & Defend on repentance by John Mincy. After giving his take on why repentance is a controversial issue, he begins explaining that what John the Baptist preached was “sanctification repentance,” the repenting already converted people do on a regular basis after they’ve already been converted. John the […]
Rampant Ideological Hylesism, pt. 3
Part One Part Two Many Christians would declare their dissatisfaction with the culture, but churches have more to do with the culture than any other influence, based upon what scripture teaches. Churches decided to capitulate to the culture as a means of success. Most do that today, to the extent that most don’t even […]
