With the understandable controversy over Alister Begg preaching at the 2024 Shepherds Conference (more about that here), I decided to look at their speaker lineup. Egalitarianism According to the below video, John Piper is an egalitarian. Though the Scriptures forbid a woman to teach, preach, or demonstrate authority over men, and to remain silent in the
Though I am very appreciative of the many books I have read and accumulated over many decades. But when they are no longer in use, and become mere dust collectors, and/or are doctrinally indifferent, then it’s time to redistribute another box of books, which makes more room for new books (or more solid old books).
Thanks for your podcast, as I’ve said before. I am a former Dispensationalist, and today I still have to fight against that former teaching. Dispensationalism is not just one error. Dispensationalism is the mothership that leads to many other errs. And saying I’m only a “leaky dispensationalist,” is tantamount to saying ‘I only have a
I knew it was only a matter of time that someone would publicly expose this. Last year I warned several close to me, but they refused to listen, scoffed, and one even mocked me. Christians must flee from pastoral idolatry. This Roy’s Report can be seen via this link here or below. . UPDATE 02/09/21:
I agree with James White here, as MacArthur’s eschatology comes from his #dispensationalism. It was defeatist, to say the least. I don’t “lose” here, and I have nothing to complain about, and everything to be thankful for. “To die is to gain” (Phil 1:21). It’s a win-win! A side note: As I’ve said before. I
These last several days have been a difficult time for my wife, myself, our children, and many family members. Our 23-month-old grandson was admitted into a hospital and was listed in grave condition. Sadly, today Lake succumbed to his medical distress. I am not writing this to invite you to my pity party. Instead, I
This preface are my own comments to the below article. Professor Michael Haykin’s article is below my preface. During the 2008 Presidential election, I saw an increase of well-known Pastors crossing the line from pulpit duty into the arena of politics, including giving endorsements. But to make matters worse, some made either derogatory or untrue
DISCLAIMER: I do not share all doctrinal views of every person mentioned here. I’m with at a local Church that embraces the five fundamental Doctrines of Grace that practice a Regulative Principle of Worship, Covenant Theology, and a full-strict subscription to the 1689 London Baptist Confession of Faith. The Truth Matters conference was a three day
MacArthur is spot-on, and he certainly has been proven to consistently demonstrate courage throughout the many decades. Understandably this video is only an excerpt. So what MacArthur did not mention (or this video did not permit the time for), is that courage must go way beyond the pulpit. It is the congregants that are called
Though Christians should be engaged in our culture, as we love our neighbor, but not without being ‘salt and light.’ Apparently many don’t understand what being ‘salt and light’ truly is (according to the Scriptures). Furthermore, Christians are commanded to go out and preach (or share) the glorious Gospel, that is the paramount remedy. Having
