Even as one who holds to the Biblical Reformed doctrines of grace it is still surprising how fast and how far this apostasy within evangelicalism is spreading. Open theist Greg Boyd is not only gaining increasing popularity within the nearly comatose spiritually evangelical community but he’s especially soothing to the itching ears in the postliberal cult of the […]

Many of you are aware of a shadow website of Christian Research Net, an outreach of Apprising Ministries, that’s run by Chris Lyons who often functions as an unofficial apologist for the Elvis of the Emergent rebellion against Sola Scriptura Rob Bell. That aforementioned site, in its mockery of CRN, calls itself CRN.Info and Analysis. There’s an interesting discussion going on there […]

Some men came down from Judea to Antioch and were teaching the brothers: “Unless you are circumcised, according to the custom taught by Moses, you cannot be saved.” This brought Paul and Barnabas into sharp dispute and debate with them. So Paul and Barnabas were appointed, along with some other believers, to go up to […]

John M. Brentnall begins this short piece: From time to time the question is asked as to how many shall be saved. Shall all, regardless of their creed, worship, character and life-style? Or is this glorious privilege reserved for only some? The current claim that God gathers up all creation into His loving purpose should […]

I read the Bible every day of my life. It is the most important book in my life. But I think it’s important that we understand it… I’m not a biblical “literalist,” and if we define biblical “fundamentalism” to be literal belief in every word of the Scripture being without error, I would say I’m […]

One must acknowledge that Barth consistently denies a systematic doctrine of universalism, or of the apokatastasis-that is, any doctrine which attempts to predict the outcome of God’s actions. However, Barth’s emphasis on the sheer freedom of God’s actions cuts both ways: one cannot limit God by predicting that God cannot fail to save all people; […]

 But understand this, that in the last days there will come times of difficulty. For people will be lovers of self,… For the time is coming when people will not endure sound teaching, but having itching ears they will accumulate for themselves teachers to suit their own passions, and will turn away from listening to the truth and […]

The next assault in this progression of assaults [upon Sola Scriptura] was the ordination of women to the Protestant clergy… The ordination of women was followed, of course, by their elevation to the episcopacy in the Episcopal Church in the United States. Clearly the battle of “Scripture only” was being lost. Now there was only […]

But mark this: There will be terrible times in the last days. People will be lovers of themselves. (2 Timothy 3:2)  Satan Has Skillfully Played The Heartstrings Of Mankind For Many, Many Years Phyllis Tickle has correctly pointed out in her book The Great Emergence exactly where those of us tracking the Emergent Church knew it was headed all […]

There is a progression that takes place in liberal theology: It begins with a corrupt bibliology, a corrupt view of the nature and the inspiration of Scripture. They have a corrupt theology because once you are picking and choosing from the Bible what you want, your theology has to suffer from it, because your human reason […]
