Argus
2008-05-04 01:20:00 I was listening to some music that I enjoyed back in the 1970’s. One album had the title “Argus .” My favorite song was “The King will come.” It got me to thinking what connection did the song have with the album’s title? An online word definition RSS feed actually had this ...
The Intellectual Gospel
2008-04-29 14:32:00 Interesting vacation, my granddaughter’s simple life by having all her needs cared for reminded me of how believers are when we first come to faith. A simple faith. What struck me next was how man has in so many ways made the gospel so complex that it is no wonder we ever ... More About: Gospel , Intellectual
?Trash Talking?
2008-04-17 02:16:00 My wife and I use this phrase when our mastiffs start barking at us to give them what they want, usually a dog treat. At least my dogs are well behaved, this I can’t say for everyone outside my house. Once again, there are shrill voices being broadcast in cyberspace. I have grown very tired of ...

Mind Map of the Crossless Debate
2008-02-18 03:01:00 Its the evening and the family had a wonderful time of worship at our church. One of our missionaries preached a sermon from Judges 2:6-10. It was both funny and sobering. One of his points was that you can be an evangelist and not make disciples, but the reverse is not true ... More About: Debate , Mind

2008-02-09 15:52:00 I mentioned the in the last blog article, “Again, I am concerned that there are some who claim to be free grace, but who suffer this same religious blindness and have mistakenly believed in everything but the Person of Christ.” These people are blind to the truth. This issue of blindness comes back again and ... More About: Theology , Free , Grace , Remnant

Pharisee?s of the Church Age

2008-01-09 06:52:00 As I was finishing the analysis of the 4th crossless article from Duluth Bible Church, my son and daughter in law were going through the Messianic passages of the Old Testament that spoke of the Messiah and it struck me as we reached Isaiah 53 just how much the church has missed in understanding who ...

Disorder in the Church?

Long Monday
1970-01-01 07:59:00 I usually don’t write on Monday ’s but today is an exception. My personal detractors who seem unaware of their acts of “talebearing.” See Lev. 19:15-16; Prov. 11:13; 20:19 and Rom. 1:29-30. I am not amazed at their zealousness, they think they have the corner on the truth about the gospel and are desperate to prove ... More About: Long |
