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 ...

Epistemology is at the heart of any inquiry about knowledge and truth. As Gordon Clark wrote, when any person makes a claim, particularly about theological or philosophical ideas, an appropriate question to ask is "How do you know?" In this project, epistemology's How do you know? is the starting point for the task of taking every thought captive to the obedience of Christ. It is within the framework of epistemological inquiry that the author seeks to establish not only what can be known about reality, but how one comes to know what is claimed. As the Introduction will make clear, every ...

This letter to the local churches in Galatia is probably Paul's second letter to some of the churches that he had established. His first letter was to the church at Thessalonica. To the Thessalonians, he was much more pleasant because he had just gotten a positive report from Timothy about their good spiritual progress. But in this letter to the Galatians, he was very much less positive because he had been told that they had returned to the Law of Moses and were telling the Gentile Christians that they had to be circumcised. So in dealing with the key issues of true biblical salvation, Paul...

I am excited! There are few subjects that get debated as often as does that of repentance. Christians, even those who claim to be of like faith and practice (I mean independent, fundamental Baptists) split hairs and churches over it. The word repentance, in one form or the other, is found one hundred twelve times in the Bible. That’s plenty of material to discover what God has to say on the subject. This book is an attempt to do just that. If you are looking for me to give you all the answers on the doctrine of repentance, I am afraid you will be disappointed. I have my opinions, ...

At the heart of this exultant proclamation is the understanding that the name of Jesus is a banner of victory over the forces that seek to oppress and diminish. It is a shout of defiance against the shadows of despair, a resounding declaration that darkness must yield to the unwavering light of Christ.

This shout of joy is a celebration of the transformative power encapsulated in the name of Jesus. It echoes through testimonies of lives touched by miraculous ...

At the heart of the Christian understanding of grace is the life and work of Jesus Christ. The incarnation, crucifixion, and resurrection of Jesus are the ultimate manifestations of God's grace. Jesus’ sacrificial death on the cross paid the penalty for sin, making it possible for humanity to be reconciled with God. This act of grace is described as a substitutionary atonement, where Jesus took upon Himself the punishment that was due to sinners, thereby satisfying the demands of divine justice and demonstrating the depths of God's love. The resurrection of Jesus is also a testament to ...

What’s the most intriguing subject to most people in the world, Christian and non-Christian? It’s to “Examine The End Times”, Eschatology, Going back to the future! Why are so many fascinated by what is to come? Possibly it’s our human nature of curiosity, as we want to know, NO, we MUST know! We want to discern our own End Time in Heaven or Hell and our Earth’s End Time. Regrettably, most have been greatly deceived by devilish liars, false teachers, and countless fanatical charlatans. The Book of Revelation is the least-read book in the Bible. It is also the most misunderstood ...

Have you ever encountered a Christian whose representation of God struck you as – cruel? In all likelihood, that Christian was Reformed. Christian thought is varied, but among those Christians who take their Bibles seriously, there are two main threads of Christian thought. One is the Calvinist (also called Reformed) camp. It is named after John Calvin, a 16th century French theologian. The other camp is the Arminian camp, named after Jacobus Arminius, a Dutch theologian who lived shortly after Calvin. Christians have been arguing over these two competing views for centuries. Often, non-...

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 ...

Royal Priesthood Restored Uncover the Covenant. Rediscover Your Calling. Before Israel fell at Sinai, they were called to be a kingdom of priests—a holy nation in covenant with YHWH. But rebellion changed everything. The covenant was broken, the priesthood lost, and the Book of the Law was added to manage sin through ritual and separation. This book reveals: The clear distinction between the Book of the Covenant and the Book of the Law Why Messiah Yeshua fulfilled the law without abolishing it How Paul’s writings make sense when Torah is rightly divided The restoration of the royal ...

The concept of wisdom has long fascinated human beings. Across different cultures, people have sought to define and apply wisdom in their quest for understanding and meaning. In ancient Greece, wisdom was prized above all other virtues, and philosophers such as Plato, Socrates, and Aristotle made significant contributions to how wisdom was perceived and pursued. This intellectual heritage greatly influenced the mindset of the world, including the culture that surrounded the early church, as seen in the context of 1 Corinthians. However, there is a striking contrast presented in the writings...

Water baptism is a foundational practice in the Christian faith, deeply rooted in the teachings of the New Testament and the tradition of the early Church. It is more than a mere ritual; it is a profound spiritual act that signifies a believer's identification with the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus Christ. Water baptism holds a vital place in the life of a believer. The Scriptures emphasizes the multifaceted significance of baptism, highlighting its role in the believer's spiritual journey, their relationship with Christ, and their integration into the body of believers. Water ...

The Holy Spirit is not merely an impersonal force or an abstract concept but the third person of the Trinity, fully and truly God. Scripture consistently reveals the Holy Spirit’s divine attributes, His role in creation, salvation, and sanctification, and His identification as God. Understanding the Holy Spirit as God is foundational to the Christian faith, and the biblical evidence is clear: the Holy Spirit is to be worshipped, honored, and revered as the true and living God.

This is the most important decision a person will ever make. Eternal destiny is on the line and at stake. The idea bears repeating. God takes the time in Scripture to repeat Himself numerous times. This is the good news of Jesus Christ. This is of the utmost importance as stated by the Apostle Paul. This is the priority. As believers in Jesus Christ, we should draw a line in the sand and stick a flag in the ground over this issue. If a person does not get the issue of the gospel of Jesus Christ right, big time eternal problems. Jesus Christ died. He was buried. And He was raised. This is ...
