2007-11-04 20:52  Vi hörsammar budskapet
Tidskriften Minaret ställer sig helt och hållet bakom Budskapet från Amman (arab. Risalat Amman). Imam Abd al-Haqq Kielan, ansvarig utgivare, och jag själv, har undertecknat. De allra flesta av islams ledande auktoriteter, organisationer och lärosäten har redan anammat budskapet. Vi har därmed fått en stabil måttstock för att bedöma vad som är normativ islam och vad som inte är det. Budskapets tre punkter är såsom följer: In the Name of God, the Compassionate, the Merciful May peace and blessing …

2007-10-12 20:33  Predestination is not the gospel, but I m preaching it anyway
Here's an excerpt from this Sunday's sermon on Romans 8:32 that I'm posting just to rile up the Lutherans (jn).  Seriously, I think Josh and John will detect their influence in what I have written, and in the end will lament that I still don't get it.  I welcome more friendly discussion of the differences between Calvinists and Lutherans on limited atonement. Here's the excerpt: Do you see then how important it is to keep the cross at the center of our theology  We ve been considering over the l …

Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will towards men.

Daily Lectionary: Deuteronomy 9:1-22; Matthew 11:1-19 Hallowed be Thy name.    ...But he that teaches and lives otherwise than God's Word teaches profanes the name of God among us. From this preserve us, Heavenly Father! God is glorified when His Word is taught purely and we lead lives that benefit and serve those around us. When we despise God's Word and live selfishly, God's name is profaned, that is, treated like dirt. Why Because as God's people, as Christians, we bear the Name of God. So am …

2007-10-07 00:17  Psalm 137: This is the Word of the Lord
Psalm 137 is the talk of the web. See this post by Lingamish for discussion and links. Henry Neufeld widens the net further. In this post, I affix four theses to the Wittenberg door of cyberspace concerning Psalm 137. It is my view that this psalm all of it, including its last verses is a snapshot of the pulsating heart of faith under fire and that anyone who thinks they possess a faith that has no need to embrace this psalm - all of it - has either had a life empty of Job-like suffering or has …

2007-09-30 17:40  Westminster Confession | Chapter XI
This chapter of the Confession concerns what Luther called the articulus stantis aut candentis ecclesiae the article of the standing or falling of the church, and, for that matter, the standing or falling of every man before God the Judge. This is the lynchpin of salvation. ~*~ CHAPTER XI Of Justification I. Those whom God effectually calleth, He also freely justifieth: a not by infusing righteousness into them, but by pardoning their sins, and by accounting and accepting their persons as righte …

2007-09-30 10:26  600th Post!! - 3 Encounters that Changed My Life!!
I've deliberately held off posting the 600th post on this blog for a very deliberate reason. I wasn't sure what to write about and wanted it to reflect what is a significant landmark. What is the point of this blog What am I writing for I therefore want to sketch out a few things in the Christian world that reflect something of my vision. Greg Haslam once said ;"Until you find something worth dying for - you aren't really living". The problem with much of Christian evangelicalism these days is t …

2007-09-27 13:39  The Effect of Architecture on Home Living
"Americans wonder why their houses lack charm...charm is dependent on connectedness, on continuities, on the relation of one thing to another.." "Houses have become utterly charmless, lacking in the capacity to inspire..." "The finest Gothic dwellings were sheer enchantments, passports to another place and time." (The above quotes are also included in the next to last chapter of Linda Lichter's book on Victorian life, "Simple Social Graces" or "The Benevolence of Manners." Both titles are the sa …

2007-09-25 22:53  When Feet Want to Be Hands
Two Sundays ago I had the privilege of preaching at my home church, Covenant Life. We re in the middle of a series on 1 Corinthians and I spoke from 1 Cor. 12:12-31. Paul has been answering the Corinthians questions about who is "really" spiritual. They were under the mistaken assumption that certain gifts, like tongues, were a sign of true spirituality. Their attitude was dividing the church the exact opposite of the unity the Spirit wants to bring. Paul presses his point home by using the anal …

2007-09-16 19:26  Westminster Confession | Chapter IX
Part of my daily reading today is a good background for this chapter of the Confession: "For when you were slaves of sin, you were free in regard to righteousness. Therefore what benefit were you then deriving from the things of which you are now ashamed For the outcome of those things is death. But now having been freed from sin and enslaved to God, you derive your benefit, resulting in sanctification, and the outcome, eternal life. For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is ete …

2007-09-14 14:04  What About Vocal Solos on Sunday Mornings
I appreciate those of you who have taken the time to send me a specific question related to what you're going through. Scott wrote in to ask: Is there a place for soloist/duets during the worship time... If someone is gifted vocally, should I allow them to minister to the body (presuming that there are guidelines from the church leadership as to biblical content and appearance) Does it cross the line leading to human-exaltation if there are those repeatedly clamoring for a certain person(s) Eph. …

2007-09-03 23:06  Praise the Lord - I Can't be Bothered Thinking
I teach at a theological college. This morning I was on campus checking my mail box when a theological discussion erupted around me. The students were discussing the question of pre-millennial eschatology, specifically whether the Temple needs to be rebuilt in Jerusalem and the levitical priesthood restored before Christ s Pre-millennial return. I am not a Pre-millennialist and hence agreed to some extent with what the students were saying, however, I found the arguments they gave to be very sup …

œMy son, conduct your affairs with humility, And you will be loved more than a giver of gifts. Humble yourself the more, the greater you are, And you will find favor with God. For great is the power of God; By the humble he is glorified. Sirach 3:17-19 Today s readings touched me on several levels. (The Gospel spoke of giving up the head-of-the-table seat to someone more important.) I.

And this is eternal life, that they know you the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom you have sent. I glorified you on earth, having accomplished the work that you gave me to do.

"If the professed convert distinctly and deliberately declares that he knows the Lord's will but does not mean to attend to it, you are not to pamper his presumption, but it is your duty to assure him that he is not saved. Do not suppose that the Gospel is magnified or God glorified by going to the worldlings and telling them that they may be saved at this moment by simply accepting Christ as their Savior, while they are wedded to their idols, and their hearts are still in love with sin.

2007-08-30 13:06  The Two-Party System: A Catastrophic Failure
The Republican and Democratic parties have divided the American people over fundamental moral values, they have failed to rectify longstanding national problems, and their existence chiefly benefits special interest groups, politicians, and mega-corporate executives. As George Washington wrote, the constant alternation of two parties in the federal government would be a œfrightful despotism.

Bishop and Theologian Aurelius Augustinus, Augustine of Hippo, or Saint Augustine (November 13, 354 August 28, 430) was one of the most important figures in the development of Western Christianity, there considered to be one of the church fathers. He framed the concepts of original sin and just war. In Roman Catholicism and the Anglican Communion, he is a saint and pre-eminent Doctor of the Church, and the patron of the Augustinian religious order.
