On the Decree and the Actions of God’s Elect

James White

You can tell when certain folks have just completely run out of meaningful commentary and argumentation, or, never possessed any to begin with. When people argue that someone who accepts the biblical teaching of God’s sovereign decree, election, the perfection of the atonement, etc., should, as a result, not engage in apologetics, not seek justice for the pre-born, not prophetically […]

Clement of Rome Remembers Jesus Christ

Tom Nettles

Possibly, the earliest post-Pauline, post apostolic literature that we have is in the letter of Clement of Rome to the Church in Corinth. Most likely this was written around 95-96 A.
