Theology That Bites Back
The Counseling Thing Thank you so much for your ministry. God has used your writings and lectures to impact me and my family significantly. On the biblical counseling topic I would put this false teaching as one of the most dangerous. Counseling, and psychology get into the living rooms and bedrooms of people. And if …
The meltdown that is Democratic Party politics continues apace. So what happened this last week—fueled in large measure, as you all have no doubt surmised, by Trump Derangement Syndrome—was something like this. In anticipation of Trump possibly getting a third Supreme Court appointment in his first term, certain states like New York and Virginia have …
Whiteness at the Intersection: Interesting thoughts on the whiteness of intersectionality. I have felt this sentiment in my gut for some time, but here it is all laid out in words. More concerning than this, however, is that the evangelical church seems to be falling for it hook, line, and sinker. Kyle Kyle, yes. There …
Emeth and All: I once listened to a liberal preacher from a liberal denomination expound on John 14:6 and point to the “conclusion” that we cannot say Jesus meant belief involving conscious awareness is required to come to the Father through Him. He would not quite say that is not, he just questioned it in …
Generational Guilt and American Vision Race, Grace, and the Crimes the Ninevah: God’s actions towards Ninevah, even after their war crimes against his people, is one of the best biblical cases against the perpetuation of generational guilt. In all the articles rebuking the sustainers of white guilt I’ve seen from you and all the comments …
Introduction: About a week ago, Al Mohler released a report on Southern Seminary with an accompanying letter. That letter (which has a link to the report itself) can be found here. And then also, if you want to read about the inevitable consequences of this, the utterly predictable howls of “that’s not nearly good enough, …
Introduction: Joel McDurmon has written a lengthy explanation of why he could not sign the Statement on Social Justice & the Gospel, and you can find his explanation here. What I would like to do in this space is provide a two-fold response to his explanation. The first is actually not a response, but rather …
Introduction: There are two things that really bother evangelical friends of Narnia, and they both show up in The Last Battle. One of them is the presence of Emeth in Aslan’s country, and the other is the absence of Susan in that same country. The character of Emeth is a striking one, and the problem …
Introduction: A friend recently asked me for my thoughts on what it means to be a happy warrior. His take was that I was one, and wanted my views on what goes into it. I thought the assessment was fair enough, but I had not really put the question to myself in those terms, and …
Roe Stuff: I’m not so sure overturning Roe would have that effect. To be sure the pro-abortionists will curse and howl, and march and boycott, but it would not have to make interactions between states more difficult. From a practical standpoint overturning Obergefell I think would be the decision that would render national union a …
