Striving for the Truth

Posted in Christian Living, Church, Doctrinal Issues, Emergent, Encouragement, False Teaching, Spiritual Warfare on June 23, 2009 | Leave a Comment »

There are congregations, even in the present age of conflict, that are really gathered around the table of the crucified Lord; there are pastors that are pastors indeed. But such congregations, in many cities, are difficult to find. Weary with the conflicts of the world, one goes into the Church to seek refreshment for the [...]

Passionate About the Truth

Posted in Christian Living, Doctrinal Issues, Encouragement on June 21, 2009 | Leave a Comment »

“I honestly do not understand how anyone can say “I believe the Bible is the Word of God” without being passionate about that confession. I love the Trinity, justification by faith, the Resurrection, and sola scriptura. I do not pretend to be dispassionate about these things, and, as such, I stand firmly on this assertion: [...]

Reclaiming the Mind Ministries

Posted in Christian Living, Discipleship, Doctrinal Issues, Encouragement on May 20, 2009 | 2 Comments »

As someone with a keen interest in theology I always enjoy discovering new resources to read or listen to. My mind never tires of reading and learning more about the God of the Universe and the teachings of the Bible. I don’t know what it’s like in the USA but in the UK, there appears [...]

J.C.Ryle- Pharisees and Saduccees

Posted in Christian Living, Church, Discipleship, Doctrinal Issues, Emergent, Encouragement, False Teaching, J.C.Ryle on April 27, 2009 | Leave a Comment »

Every word spoken by the lord Jesus is full of deep instruction for Christians. It is the voice of the Chief Shepherd. It is the Great Head of the Church speaking to all its members, – the King of kings speaking to His subjects, – the Master of the house speaking to His servants, – [...]

Book Review- The Jesus Who Never Lived: Exposing False Christs and Finding the Real Jesus

Posted in Book Review, Christian Living, Doctrinal Issues, Evangelism, False Teaching, Recommended Books on February 2, 2009 | Leave a Comment »

Sometimes apologetics books can be dry and hard to read. Agreed? It takes one to have a keen interest in the subject at hand to stimulate the mind to keep flicking those pages, absorbing the content of said pages as you do so. Sometimes the author is very intellectual and the information given us very [...]

False Teaching- Listen up all y’all out there!

Posted in Apostasy, Christian Living, Discipleship, Doctrinal Issues, Emergent, Encouragement, False Teaching on January 28, 2009 | Leave a Comment »

This is a great video in warning us to be discerning against any teaching that is out there. We must always go to the Bible to see what it actually says, not what somebody says that it says. Just like the Bereans. I don’t necessarily agree with all the pictures on here (most of them [...]

To the Non-Religious, Fed up with Christianity

Posted in Atheism, Christian Living, Church, Doctrinal Issues, Emergent, Encouragement, Evangelism on January 28, 2009 | 13 Comments »

Umpteen times I have come across comments and posts by people proclaiming their disdain and sheer irritation with Christianity. I have also read and heard remarks by Christians siding with the Non-Christians, stating that they too are fed up with radical fundamentalism, the kind who run around preaching hell, fire and brimstone at every person [...]

A Liberal Gospel is idolatry

Posted in Apostasy, Christian Living, Church, Doctrinal Issues, Emergent, False Teaching on January 23, 2009 | 3 Comments »

“What happens to the Gospel when idolatry themes are not grasped? ‘God loves you’typically becomes a tool to meet a need for self-esteem in people who feel like failures. The particular content of the Gospel of Jesus Christ – ‘grace for sinners and deliverance for the sinned-against’ – is down-played or even twisted into ‘unconditional [...]

R.C. Sproul- The Human Will and Salvation

Posted in Calvinism, Christian Living, Church, Doctrinal Issues, R.C. Sproul, Say What? on January 21, 2009 | Leave a Comment »

A necessary condition for justification is faith. Right? And faith involves an active embracing, and trusting in Christ-and in Christ alone. In that sense it involves some action of the will. It involves some step of embracing Christ. Now we’re not saying-Luther isn’t saying, Augustine isn’t saying-that the human will is not involved in salvation. [...]

Blogging through the Institutes

Posted in Book Review, Calvinism, Christian Living, Church, Discipleship, Doctrinal Issues, Encouragement, John Calvin, Sola Scriptura on January 19, 2009 | 3 Comments »

A friend of mine recently informed me that the guys over at the Reformation21 blog are undertaking the task of blogging through “The Institutes of the Christian Religion” by the great reformer John Calvin in 2009. If you have never heard of John Calvin, then please do look up more about him and the reformation [...]

Bishop John Shelby “Hymaneus, Alexander” Spong

Posted in Apostasy, Doctrinal Issues on January 18, 2009 | Leave a Comment »

Oh my word…..is this guy serious?? It defies belief that this man (John Shelby Spong) has the pedestal that he has to preach the absolute disgusting lies that he does. I normally try to hold back my emotions and be as gracious as my sinful self can be when talking about false teaching but this [...]

The Problem with Rob Bell

Posted in Apostasy, Christian Living, Church, Doctrinal Issues, Emergent on January 16, 2009 | Leave a Comment »

I’ve posted on Rob Bell before, and my friend and fellow blogger-in-Christ, over at Wired4Truth, posted a few articles regarding Rob Bell which went through the roof, after I gave him a little video hint. I’m glad I didn’t post it because I certainly could not have done as good a job as he did!! [...]

Can a true Christian deny the virgin birth?

Posted in Albert Mohler, Apostasy, Church, Creeds, Doctrinal Issues on January 16, 2009 | Leave a Comment »

I was recently at an overnight gathering of those aged 18-28ish in my church, which proved to be a great time of blessing and fellowship. However, one worrying thing that occurred was what was said during a discussion a few of us had about the virgin birth. I, and the others, firmly hold that the [...]
