HB 813 was the bill to provide equal protection in the State of Louisiana. It was a historic moment and an important bill that was worked on by Pastors Jeff Durbin and Brian Gunter. The bill passed the hearing and made it to the floor. Ultimately, the bill was stopped. Many will be shocked to …

For the sons of this world are more shrewd in dealing with their own generation than the sons of light. And I tell you, make friends for yourselves by means of unrighteous wealth, so that when it fails they may receive you into the eternal dwellings. (Luke 16:8b-9 ESV) It is the year 1452. A […]

When we stand with Christ in glory,
Looking o’er life’s finished story;
Then, Lord, shall I fully know—
Not till then—how much I owe.

The Bible calls Satan the father of lies (John 8:44). Many in the world have bought into his lies and it shows in many ways. All you have to do is turn on the TV or look into social media to see proof of that.Sadly, many of those lies have crept into t…
Trent Horn attempted to rebut the American Gospel presentation of Roman Catholic system of salvation, but he did not really refute anything much. There was one word that they used about purgatory – that we will talk about later in … Continue reading

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. D, and persons appointed by the apostles still held office in the church but were being pressed out of leadership by a younger generation. […]

Many years ago, on October 31 something took place that changed the course of my life. I am not talking about Martin Luther’s seemingly innocuous act in 1517 of nailing 95 theses to the church door in Wittenberg. In ways that he could never have anticipated that act did come to symbolize the beginning of […]

Students of the Gospels will know that there has been a long-standing discussion among scholars about the relationship between the Synoptic Gospels (Matthew, Mark, and Luke). These three Gospels are so similar at so many points (often word for word), t…
I enjoyed listening to this because I really do miss Rod Bennett as a friend when we were Baptists together in our local church, and those days of great discussions and friendship over good classical movies with a meaningful message … Continue reading
‘Every Second Counts’ is a new series providing Biblical answers to various questions on this issue with urgency and clarity. Why do we go to the mill? Because the gospel compels us to go. To preach, love and rescue.
This article is part 6 in a series by Tom Nettles on Remembering Jesus Christ. (Part 1, Part 2, Part 3, Part 4, Part 5). Paul’s alarm at the gullibility of the Corinthians in receiving false teachers arose from the implications this had for several issues of vital truth, all of which impinged on the […]

Answer to Roman Catholics who claim the OT Apocrypha books are “canonical”. They call them “Deutero-canonicals” The canon already existed by 96 AD, because the 27 books of the NT were “God-breathed” as soon as written. The discernment process is … Continue reading
Well, I should probably just get on my bike and let this whole thing blow over, but, I really can’t. There are some important points that, as is normally the case, are being lost in the fog of battle. Maybe someday someone will go, “Hey, there were some folks who really did try to encourage everyone to chill out and […]

What Hamas needs is Jesus Christ. That is exactly what Israel needs. It is what every Muslim, Jew, and Gentile needs. The only hope for the world is our crucified, risen Savior. You will have opportunities to speak of Christ as this war continues. Do not miss them. Pray for wisdom and boldness to make the gospel known.
