Pete Wilson is a pastor in the Purpose Driven/Seeker Driven sector sounding more and more like those timid fellows who are within the Emerging Church. And today Wilson would warble: Ah yes, Wilson would appear to have been very well conditioned into today’s effete centered on the self form of Christianity. Indeed, he has quite ably parroted the “humble” pastor’s postmodern […]

O foolish Galatians! Who has bewitched you? It was before your eyes that Jesus Christ was publicly portrayed as crucified.

Apprising Ministries has told you that Dr. John Piper is seen by some as a “pioneer” of the New Calvinism.

Or do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: neither the sexually immoral, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor men who practice homosexuality, nor thieves, nor the greedy, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God.

We must present the Bible as the Word of God, not the words of men, but the Word of the living God: God speaking about Himself; God speaking about men; God speaking about life; God telling us what He is going to do about a fallen world. That is what we need to preach with […]
