Who are my favorites?
Though I fall short, ever since I can remember, as per the authority of Jude 3, I’ve strived to obey the Hapax Legomenon and command to earnestly contend for the faith (epagōnizomai).
But sadly, today, instead of contending for the faith, or giving a defense via apologetics, many wrongfully contend for or defend their favorite celebrity pastors. Frankly, I find the idolatry of man to be repugnant.
Therefore, since the beginning of the internet, I’ve been answering the following questions. It’s time to compile some of them here.
Who’s my favorite person? The Three Distinct Persons of the Trinity. The Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
Who’s my favorite Christian mentor? My primary mentors are Christ, His chosen men of the Scriptures, and other men that have proceeded us in death.
Who’s my favorite evangelist? Jesus Christ.
Who’s my favorite preacher? Jesus Christ.
Who’s my favorite teacher? The Holy Spirit.
Who’s my favorite author? The Holy Spirit.
What’s my favorite sermon? The sermon on the mount, by Jesus Christ.
What’s my favorite book? The Bible.
What’s my favorite book on evangelism? The book of Acts.
What’s my favorite music? The Psalter, psalms, songs & hymns.
I’m very thankful for the many people and books the Lord has placed in my life to learn from. But I don’t ever want to place them before our Lord and His Word.
