    ECT What does the Doctrine of Inspiration mean to you?

    Okay...so Knight has asked for new topics - juicy ones. Well, this one is not really new exactly. But perhaps juicy in that there is a lot of disagreement. What exactly is the Doctrine of Inspiration to you? Do you believe the Bible is inspired? If so, what is the exact meaning and outworking...

    ECT Theology and History are Inseparable

    It has been in my thinking lately how biblical theology and history are so completely and inextricably linked. From creation, to the flood, to Babel, the giving of the law, the prophetic utterances, the exile, the birth of Christ, His life, death and resurrection; it all takes place in history...

    ECT Who can spot the unbiblical doctrine of Lordship salvation in this song?

    The bane of modern fundamental evangelicalism is the teaching that unless you make Jesus the Lord of your life, you are not saved. See if you can pick out, in this song loosely based on Psalm 51, the thing that David never said.

    God is a Jew? Really?

    I ran across this recently and wondered if anyone knew anything about this. Is this a movement? A mini-cult? Or just a logical expression of not understanding the whole counsel of God? It is by someone I am not familiar with. John Harrigan "“God is a Jew.” You can’t get around it. The...

    Trump addressing the Arab nations

    Just one of the lines from Trump's speech to the Arab nations. "Every time a terrorist murders an innocent person, and falsely invokes the name of God, it should be an insult to every person of faith. Terrorists do not worship God, they worship death." I thought this (although almost certainly...

    ECT How does God forgive?

    ​I came across this in daily devotional today and I invite you to comment on it; especially the underlined portion. What say you? Very few of us know anything about conviction of sin.

    To My friends at TOL

    FRIENDS AT TOL The reason I have not been on much is that, on Aug. 18th, my beloved wife of 41 years, Diane, was killed instantly in an automobile accident. She was on her way to help out, an hour from home, at a Vacation Bible School for children and was hit by a gravel truck while making a...

    Does Luke 19:44 disprove Preterism?

    Musterion says that Luke 19:44KJV, Luke 19:44NIV disproves preterism. I wonder what this means? I assume he means that, although the city was, for all intents and purposes, razed to the ground, not every last stone was cast down by the Romans. (perhaps he will clarify) I take Jesus' prediction...

    God and Evil

    "IF god were real, why would he spend so much time in white America answering the minutia of prayer he receives while leaving so many millions to starve to death or watch their children starve?" This is a quote from MrDeets blogpost which seems to me to be the essence of a long unanswered...

    An Atheist's Misinterpretation

    In his book "The Atheist’s Introduction to the New Testament: How the Bible Undermines the Basic Teachings of Christianity", Mike Davis says that, for him, the deciding factor about Christianity came down to Matthew 24:34. If Jesus was Divine, He would not have made this prediction which...
