The Historical and Biblical Outlier of Wesleyan Salvation and Sanctification (Part 3)
Part One Part Two Wesley’s Incoherent System: Baptismal Regeneration, Apostasy, and the Second Blessing Very few modern Wesleyans and Methodists deal with or consider at all their historical and theological foundations in baptismal regeneration. What has happened across the spectrum of Wesleyan and Methodist denominations is not a careful theological resolution of the contradiction […]
The Historical and Biblical Outlier of Wesleyan Salvation and Sanctification (Part 2)
Part One John Wesley came along in the history of England in and under the authority of the Church of England (COE), which represented and preached a false gospel, hence a damning one too. False gospels don’t change lives and conform people to the image of the Son, so it results in all the evidence […]
Colossians 1:24: The Place of Suffering in Ministry and Sanctification of Others
Epistle to the Colossians The Lord Jesus Christ, the Apostles, and the first century Christian, as you know, all suffered. Greatly.

Job’s friends speak to him about justification and Job answers about justification. Is Job justified? A related aspect to justification is a common Old […]
Justification In Job, pt. 1
When someone thinks of Job, the book of Job from the Old Testament of the Bible, maybe he doesn’t think of “justification.” I’ve taught through the whole book twice, once fast and the second fairly slowly. Recently I was reading through it the second time this year, moving through the Bible twice in this year, […]
The Gospel (The Good News of Salvation, Because We Need to Be Saved and God Can and Wants to Save Us)
This afternoon I was able to go door-to-door with a young man, who was just saved here, and this was his first time. Three of the conversations were with young mothers, who were not sure they were saved. They were all legitimate, decent conversations, all headed in the right direction toward preaching the gospel, […]
