Al Mohler on Homosexuality
Al Mohler last night was on Larry King Live. He gives a biblically-balanced approach to the current homosexual crises of our day. I appreaciate his balance to care compassionately for homosexuals without compromising the truth. Here is a blurb: In far too many cases, the options seem reduced to these–liberal churches preaching love without truth, [...]
Why So Many Versions of the Bible?
You might have wondered why this is so. Daniel Wallace is a Greek professor at Dalas Theological Seminary and he has written an excellent article describing the beginnings of most modern translations of the Bible. He also notes their distinguishing marks. Bookmark on Delicious Digg this post Recommend on Facebook Buzz it up share via [...]
John Owen on the Mortification of Sin
I’ve been reading this wonderful book by John Owen. His insights are quite extraordinary. Here is one example of the fight against sin by our own natural will and strength: This is the saddest warfare that any poor creature can be engaged in. A soul under the power of conviction from the law is pressed [...]

Liberty for the Believer
Mark Lauterbach has a great post on Christian liberty on his blog. He says this is how we can apply Scripture in issues of conscience and liberty: 1. I look carefully at the decision to be made — if I am a husband I lead my wife and children in this. What is the issue [...]
Why I Am Not an Altar Boy (Part 4): The Bishop of Romeâ€â€Papal Fallacies
Perhaps one of the most notable aspects of the RCC is the fact that there is only one voice for the Church, the Bishop of Rome, also known as the Pope. This is appealing to many because it seems at the outset that to have one and only one perspective speak on behalf of any [...]
Four Kids and a Man
Shua went away on a women’s retreat this past weekend, and so the number one question I was asked was, “How are you surviving?” The assumption is that for a man to watch four kids must be quite challenging. And the answer to that question is, “I am more than surviving, I am enjoying the [...]
How to Read a Book
If you really want to know, a great read for this is Mortimer Adler’s How to Read a Book. But if you don’t have time for that, then the next best thing is to heed the words of bookworm Tim Challies. His words on how to read and suggestions as to building that in to [...]
Jesus for Sale!
I found this really great article on “Selling Jesus” on InterVaristy’s website by Shawn Young who is on IV staff in Vegas. It’s good to know that someone like him is ministering to students there. If you read my essay on election and effective atonement, you’ll probably notice some similarities. Here is a quote from [...]
Seeing the Gospel in All Things
As usual, Mark Lauterbach has some insightful thoughts on the Gospel. Ian Duguid preached at Grace Church on Numbers. One quote and then I’ll direct you to his site: But Iain noted this as well — when God speaks of the places where he was faithful, he develops the details. When God writes about the [...]
