The Bible doesn't completely reveal God.  It can't.  The Bible reveals enough about God for us to know that there is a God (Psalm 19:1-6; cf. Psalm 14:1-3), that He created us in His image (Genesis 1:26-27), and that He has sent His one and only unique Son to die on the cross for our sins (Isaiah 53:4-6), that Jesus rose from the dead (1 Corinthians 15:3-4) and that He is our salvation (1 Corinthians 1:30-31).  But the Bible doesn'...

Many Calvinists assume falsely that moral governmental theology is closely associated with Arminianism.  In fact, some Calvinists have assumed that Arminius held to MGT as did John Wesley.  This is not true as will be shown later.  While MGT does have some things in common with Arminianism such as our rejection of the TULIP, Arminians and MGT are not in agreement on many doctrinal issues.  As an Arminian, I want to define thos...

I was browsing a liberal blogger the other day and noticed that he made a post lamenting that an evangelical Bible teacher kept saying, "The Word of God says...".  The liberal blogger said, "As soon as he said this, he lost me.  Why couldn't he say, 'Paul says'?" The author was obviously attacking the Bible as speaking for God unless of course the passages favor this blogger's position.  I noticed that his blog was full of passages...

In this book, Why God Won't Go Away, Alister McGrath takes on the ideas that are being presented by the so called "new atheists". In the book he takes on leading atheists such as Richard Dawkins, Sam Harris, Daniel Dennett, and Christopher Hitchens. Each of these atheists are not just content to ignore God or to allow people to have their religious beliefs but they are determined both in word and deed to silence religion and God once and for all....

In Leviticus 10:1-3 we read the tragic story of Nadab and Abihu, the sons of Aaron.  These two men were offering what the Bible calls "strange fire" before the Lord.  We are not told exactly what Nadab and Abihu did but Leviticus 10:8-9 suggest that these two men were trying to offer incense before Yahweh (Exodus 30:9, 34-38) while drunk.  Their act show their carelessness and disregard for how holy and mighty God truly is especial...

"All that the Father gives Me will come to Me, and the one who comes to Me I will certainly not cast out."- John 6:37 NASBCharles Spurgeon once remarked that John 6:37 was one of his favorite passages in all the Bible.  Here in this one verse the power of the gospel is seen.  Here in this one verse do we find the assurance that whoever comes to Jesus will find a Saviour who is more than willing to take them in.  We are justified by...

DISPUTATION IION THE MANNER IN WHICH THEOLOGY MUST BE TAUGHTI. It has long been a maxim with those philosophers who are the masters of method and order, that the theoretical sciences ought to be delivered in a synthetical order, but the practical in an analytical order, on which account, and because theology is a practical science, it follows that it must be treated according to the analytical method.II. Our discussion of this doctrine must there...

Jesus never taught in the New Testament one model for evangelism.  I am thankful He didn't otherwise we would all just fall in line and follow His perfect example.  While Jesus gave His disciples principles such as those found in Matthew 10, He never lays down a step by step process to making disciples.  His words in Matthew 28:19 are simply go and make disciples and then He adds in Matthew 28:20 to teach them to obey all that He h...

I heard a Calvinist radio program today and the very first call they took on the program was a woman asking the two gentlemen what Calvinism was and who are Calvinists.  The two men proudly said that they both were Calvinists.  Then the program went something like this:Calvinist Pastor: We follow the teachings of John Calvin that are completely biblical.  We don't worship John Calvin but we do believe that he, being a reformer, hel...
