The following is excerpted from Donald Whitney and Spiritual Disciplines: Spirituality Without Boundaries by Bob DeWaay, pastor of  Twin City Fellowship:  The people who asked me to review [Donald] Whitney were concerned about mysticism. I am concerned too, not merely because Whitney is a mystic without qualifications (he is not), but that he has opened the door […]

DOWN WITH SOLA SCRIPTURA!   These are the men who are hidden reefs in your love feasts when they feast with you without fear, caring for themselves… (Jude 12, NASB) C’mon Now Rip Van Winkle’s In Evangelical Leadership; It’s Way Past Time To Wake Up! Have you ever wondered what seducing spirits espousing doctrines of demons look […]

Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind, Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God. (1 Corinthians 6:9-10, KJV) It’s Not Loving And Tolerant To […]

As one who holds to the doctrines of grace I don’t agree with everything evangelist Leonard Ravenhill (1907-1994) taught, but I did have the privilege of conversing with this man of God through the mail.

In his latest article at Christian Issues Commentary, which is a must read, pastor Bob DeWaay weighs in on “spiritual disciplines” as it concerns Donald Whitney and Southern Baptist Theological Seminary. DeWaay notes the close similarity between Whitney’s teachings and those of Living Spiritual Teacher and Quaker mystic Richard Foster.

So says Greg Gilbert of 9 Marks. Gilbert begins his piece by telling us: In my travels last week, I missed this interview of Rob Bell by Christianity Today’s Mark Galli.  I’ve interacted with some of Rob’s other materials on this site, and my conclusion has been that what he is holding out as the […]

Therefore as you have received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk in Him, having been firmly rooted and now being built up in Him and established in your faith, just as you were instructed, and overflowing with gratitude. See to it that no one takes you captive through philosophy and empty deception, according to the tradition of […]

DOWN WITH SOLA SCRIPTURA!   “When you come to appear before Me, who has asked this of you, this trampling of My courts? Stop bringing meaningless offerings! Your incense is detestable to Me. New Moons, Sabbaths and convocations—I cannot bear your evil assemblies. Your New Moon festivals and your appointed feasts My soul hates. They […]

DOWN WITH SOLA SCRIPTURA!   …because they did not receive the love of the truth so as to be saved. For this reason God will send upon them a deluding influence so that they will believe what is false. (2 Thessalonians 2:10-11, NASB) No Matter How Intelligent You Think You Are You Are Not In Control Of Being […]
