Systematic Theology is a subject most Christians do not study because they think it is only for those in seminary. Sadly, there are some pastors that think it as well. There have been many great theological books over the centuries yet most of them are…
Divinity cannot suffer, yet in the incarnation God the Son does enter into our human experience and suffer to manifest His love to us, thus bringing us to Himself.

The lovable Disney film Moana, tells the story of a young girl who lives on a Polynesian island and is the daughter of the chief. Like many fathers, the chief is overly protective of his daughter, and also of the people he rules.
As a result, the peopl…

Rich worked hard to work on the audio challenges we have had in the past and the changes made it a lot easier for me to play video clips on the program today. So, we looked at Jeff Durbin’s exchange with the Jewish representative in Georgia, and responded to Joel Webbon’s criticism of that exchange. Then we looked at some […]

I have decided that from this point forward I am a paedo Baptist. That’s right. After much debate and the fact that I have discovered Baptists are not reformed, I am making the switch to having babies be baptized. You can imagine how this conversation …

Christians can be identified objectively as those who confess with their mouths the creed of their hearts, that Jesus is Lord.

I am sure many of you have heard of theonomy. Well, if you have not, do not fear, many in the church has not either. I have to admit the first time I heard this word was when an elder at my former church mentioned he saw in on a bumper sticker. Th…
Here, perhaps, it may be said by that presumption of man, which is ignorant of the righteousness of God, and wishes to establish one of its own, that the apostle quite properly said, “For by the law shall no man … Continue reading
If you abandon Eternal Relations of Authority and Submission (ERAS) between the persons of the godhead, will you lose complementarianism as well? Does a commitment to classical trinitarianism undermine or weaken the case for headship and submission within the home? Some may fear that a departure from ERAS opens the door to egalitarianism. Unfortunately, a […]

In his talk for the Operation Save America National Event, Pastor Luke Pierson shows how the fight to end the slaughter of our pre-born neighbors is ultimately a battle for worship.
Watch this beautiful and heartwarming story of a life saved. Meet baby Dion. He is such a precious little boy and this story is incredible.
Aleasha had her mindset on having an abortion after learning she was about to become a single mom. Thanks to faithful Christians, Aleasha was provided with the resources and support needed and chose life for her daughter.

“Got to see this little boy today. He was saved from abortion over four years ago. His mom stopped by and told us she was headed into the mill but stopped and talked with us. That she changed her mind that day and now this precious little boy is 4 years old. Praise the Lord!!” […]

As promised on today’s program I read through The Acts of Paul and Thecla, commented on the Orthodox veneration of Thecla as a saint and “equal of the Apostles,” and what we can learn about the context of the origination of this apocryphal mythology from the second century. By the way, here is the article I mentioned from the OCA […]

So Joel Webbon dropped a webcast about how the State is to correct the Church, and how this has been normative throughout church history. Well, do forgive me, but I’ve always opposed sacralism, still do, always will, and the errors and holes in the presentation, historically and logically, were big enough for me to drive my big GMC through, so, […]

Traditionally, the church has defined the Trinity in a particular way: one nature, three persons. A nature refers to what something is, while a person refers to who someone is. But how do we define three uncreated persons who share the same nature? Historically, we have done so through what is known as “Personal Relations,” […]

The third commandment instructs us not to take the name of the Lord in vain. I suppose for most people, that means only one thing: don’t use swear words and especially don’t use God’s name as a swear word. Of course, that is right. But it’s more than t…
The incarnate Christ is one divine person who subsists in two distinct yet united natures, divine and human. He is not two persons, but rather “one Person and one Subsistence, not parted or divided into two persons, but one and the same Son.”

Though the Bible refers to various types of salvation, when it speaks about salvation in the ultimate sense, it’s speaking of the ultimate escape from the ultimate dire human condition. This brings us back to the question I asked the man in Philadelphi…
