What if somebody asks you while holding your Bible, “Is that Bible that you are holding the Word of God?” Can you confidently say, “Yes this is the Word of God.” If he asks, “Is that perfect?”. Can you confidently say, “Yes”? If you do not have confidence in the Bible that you are using and would say, “This contains the Word of God and there are many errors in it," how would others learn to trust God's Word? They would say, “As we read the Bible, we do not know if we are reading an erroneous portion or if it is the truth”. Such will confuse the lost sinner as well as ...

Calvinism has become so widespread and popular not only among protestant churches, but also among Baptists so that many among them take pride to be called “Calvinists”. In fact, the Calvinists would often speak that there are only two types of people in this world, that you are either a “Calvinist” or an “Arminian” so that the unawares or ignorant are left without any choice. Their use of Scriptures seem to be convincing until you study well and search out the truth, and find out that they are just wrestling with the Scriptures to fit with man-made doctrines.“As also in all ...

Many religious people are teaching many kinds of gospel. There are those who say that there are two kinds of gospel such as the kingdom Gospel and the Grace Gospel. Others try to divide the gospel into different types. But Apostle Paul said: I marvel that ye are so soon removed from him that called you into the grace of Christ unto another gospel: Which is not another; but there be some that trouble you, and would pervert the gospel of Christ. But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed. As we said ...

In early 90s, Calvinistic Baptists and Primitive Baptists from the US came into contact with some Missionary Baptists in the Southern Philippines and through those they have persuaded in their Calvinistic doctrines were able to influence many to follow them causing a split to many churches. It was for this reason that Edwin Jardinel made a deeper study of the Scriptures on the defense against Calvinism. The Calvinists often made charges that Baptists who are not Calvinists are Arminians. They classify people in this world as either a Calvinist or an Arminian, that means if a person is not a...

Many Christians today do not care about attending a Biblical church or finding the true church that Jesus founded because they have a wrong conception of what a church is, and they believe that the local assembly founded by Christ no longer exists. However, if you study Matthew 16: 18, you will learn that His church will continue to perpetuate because Christ made a promise that, even the gates of hell shall not prevail against her. And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it. --Matthew 16:18 The...

In an effort to persuade the Calvinists, a fellow minister who used to believe in Calvinism frequently used the term "enabling grace". This prompted the author to write an article on the subject and other topics on Calvinism. With the help of other ministers, by the grace of God, that fellow is no longer a Calvinist. The Calvinists would often make mention of terms such as sovereign grace, efficacious grace, irresistible grace, etc. to mean something different or to emphasize their doctrine. When a Calvinist speaks about "enabling grace", he meant that God's grace cannot be resisted. This ...
