Sing Koine Greek
As you may know, I am teaching 1st year Koine Greek, and we are working on getting the lectures up on YouTube as well as on my website. Something that has been a blessing has been having my students sing passages from the Greek New Testament. The verse-songs we have sung in class are ones […]
Dress Standards Matter: Case Study Bob Jones University
Steve Pettit, president of Bob Jones University, just announced changes in the dress standards especially for females, two in particular: (1) permission to wear pants or slacks to class and (2) “shorts” for athletics that rise to two inches above the knee. It didn’t seem odd, but representative of BJU and the churches that send […]
Lutherans and Anglicans: True Gospel?
This last week going evangelizing door-to-door I encountered a young family, who attended an Anglican church in San Francisco. I had just been in the U.K. and visited a few well-known cathedrals there, including Westminster, so the Anglicans had been on my mind. I could not remember ever talking to an Anglican in California — […]

Christian Liberty and Its Relationship to Honor of Parents
Parts One and Two and Three As I’ve written within the previous posts on Christian liberty, many adhere, especially evangelicals and many fundamentalists, to the notion that Christians have liberty wherever scripture does not speak in an explicit manner — meaning that if the very words of whatever it is that is possibly prohibited are not found in scripture, […]
Christian Liberty and Its Relationship to Church Autonomy and Sola Scriptura
Parts One and Two The fundamental of Christian liberty is that we are free from something unto something else, which is that we are free from bondage to sin, including the causal factors, the world, the flesh, and the devil. We are no longer citizens of this world, but heaven. Our god isn’t our belly […]

Help Get the Gospel to the Ends of the Earth
On my FaithSaves website, I have a post where people can ask for a free King James Bible. I explain that it is not always possible to get a copy to one who asks, and that if we can get one out, what would happen is that we would contact a “believer in your area […]
The Presuppositions for Text and Canon of Scripture, the Same: Jeff Riddle
Again, read the last few full posts written this week. I don’t know him, never met or talked or interacted in any way, but I have read and listened to Jeff Riddle in the last year or two. We take similar if not identical views of the text of scripture. When we wrote and published […]
Love This Victor David Hanson Column
Don’t ignore the last few articles written here, but I didn’t want to wait to link to the Victor David Hansen post, entitled Progressive Regression, at American Greatness. There’s almost nothing I disagree with his characterization of the state of the United States. Read it and save it as a reference, because he nails it […]
