Theology That Bites Back
The judgments of God are organic. That is, they do not operate in a mechanical way, as though dispensed from a vending machine. But they do operate in predictable ways, ways that we should be able to anticipate. We understand seedtime and harvest, and so we should also be aware that it is not possible …
As many of you know, some of the CMP videos had been blocked by a judge, but a few days ago someone — another hero — hacked the videos that had been withheld from us, and they are now available. I have embedded one of them. In the course of the video, the presenter reads …
Jory Micah has kindly taken up the challenge presented by my recent post on Love and Respect over at Desiring God. I would like to return the compliment, making me a complimentarian, and I would like to return the compliment with all my heart, making me an extreme complimentarian. I begin this way because Jory …

This is quite right, and so they go on to make practical applications, which include encouraging all concerned to consider the decision as having no application beyond the named plaintiffs …
Every Saturday night at our Sabbath dinner, we have a round of catechism questions for the kids. The last question, the one I ask all of them together, is “Kids, what’s the point of the whole Bible?” The answer is “Kill the dragon, get the girl!” This was the point of the biblical story before …
