Discussions about the practices of the ekklesia including the errors of modern day religion.
I hope I am not opening a can of worms here, but, as it is obvious, I have been reading a lot about Church History and the thinking of those "who came before us" (to avoid calling them "fathers"). As such sometimes I come up with information that drives me to think that is OURS and not THEIRS...

Brethren: Some of you may know that I have this incessant desire to unite Lutherans and Calvinists and Zwinglians under the same guise of REFORMED FUNDAMENTALS. I know it is difficult and hard. Let me tell you the reasons why I publish this link here, with the request that we forget that it: ...
While I sympathize strongly with a suspicion of paradox theology (though I know most here have more than a "suspicion" of it), I have a hard time thinking of a non-paradoxical explanation of the Trinity. I'm totally down with God's will of decree being identical with his good pleasure, rather than...
Check this video, which is hilarious, and tell me if it does not depict PERFECTLY what we here at PNet call "christemdumb". http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IUQcCvX2MKk&feature=player_embedded Milt
http://gcsandiego.org/gospeldrivenlife/?p=668 Note that by 'sola scriptura' the author really means the 66-book canon as homolegoumena, NOT sola scriptura as defined by Luther. Comments?
Has anyone read this book? http://www.americanthinker.com/2010/06/the_grand_jihad.html I have acquired but not yet started it; waiting on my wife to finish. From what I have browsed it is pretty revealing and damning about how the darkest manifestation of the great apostasy, Islam, is...
In short, John Owen proposes Christ suffered the exact punishment due us on the cross. Others propose it was an exact equivalent. What say ye? Owen: 1) Now from all this, thus much (to clear up the nature of the satisfaction made by Christ) appears,–namely, It was a full, valuable...
Johannes Maccovius was never officially condemned in his views by Dort, yet he is constantly condemned as a 'hyper-Calvinist' and heretic by other 'Reformed' theologians. We need to study this man's life and contributions a lot more; I have not yet found any of his writings in English. ...
In 1521 Pope Leo X excommunicated Martin Luther. Thank you Pope Leo! Brandan shared this quote with me today: Lately Brandan and I have been discussing Luther and a good many of the things he said. As a result I'm finding that I identify with Luther more than I do with Calvin. This has...
Not being from Tennessee, I'm so pleased I found this story, otherwise I might not know when Jesus is coming back. Y'all be sure to leave your calendars open. http://www.tennessean.com/article/20101201/NEWS06/12010350/Nashville-billboards-claim-Jesus-will-return-May-21-2011
Brethren: Our friend Charles, (W.B.) sent me a number of articles to read and I was very impressed, I am still reading, but I want to make this first one public here and hopefully we may have a bit of conversation about it. I love the way this man expresses himself and I have used his analogy...
I just saw this: http://www.startribune.com/lifestyle/121605074.html What a bunch of idiots.
It keeps getting stranger and it keeps me laughing. http://en.rian.ru/russia/20110511/163979062.html
Greetings, Brethren. Just thought I would pop in and share a news article I found on the BBC website this morning. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-middle-east-12888421 My apologies for not contributing much for a very long time now. I have nothing of value to contribute but when I do I'll...
Anyone ever really thought about where this word comes from? Anyone ever really thought about where the idea of a universal church comes from-- either invisible or visible? from my studies-- neither the word church.. nor a universal church comes from the original translations in Greek. ...
I have been reading through the latest release of the Trinity Review. This is utterly fascinating, the author, Paul M. Elliott, is discussing the emergent church movement and how it denies the 5 solas. What I found so interesting is that this movement is accepting of everyone regardless of what...
This guy and others like him who cling to logic like this (I mean the lack thereof) still blow my mind. I would like to knock on their collective skulls and ask "is there anybody home?", but of course nobody is, so this would do no good. http://www.gci.org/God/predestination

I wonder if they would add my name to the list? http://supralapsarian.wordpress.com/2009/01/25/list-of-supralapsarians/
Calvin Coolidge, the most principled of all U.S. Presidents in the last 110 years (at least, in my opinion), stated this in his autobiography: Although I had been rather constant in my attendance, I had never joined the church . . . . Among other things, I had some fear as to my ability to set...
In a video on youtube called "Come to Christ, He is Mighty to Save" by Paul Washer, these statements are made by him. Please watch the short video for the full context. "...I know all about the sovereignty of God, about the great confessions, and I embrace them all. I know about election and...
The latest in Lane Keisters blog: http://greenbaggins.wordpress.com/category/heresy/federal-vision/ This thorn in the flesh of Protestant tradition will never go away until God obliterates the whole basis of sectarian confidence and establishes a whole new movement of RESURRECTION of the...
Transcript: "...A legal transaction took place... Jesus paid YOUR fine in His lifes blood." Ray Comfort is teaching 3 false doctrines here: 1. Indefinite Atonement 2. Conditional Atonement 3. Vain Atonement
There is a trend in our day by some who are teaching hypothetical universalism and attempting to affirm that this is the doctrine of limited atonement. You can briefly observe this here: John Piper: Did The Death Of Jesus Christ Accomplish Anything For The Non-Elect KEVIN WILLIAMS -...
