A spokesman from the Lambeth Press Office said the Archbishop had been invited to address the 21-26 October 2013 meeting of centrist and …
My Lord and My God: Obedient as Far as Death
For an introduction, explanation and links to the entire work, click here. We have demonstrated Bible teaches that both Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit are God.

We Could Use the Money to Pay Off Litigation Expenses
But we won't: "We're going to raise $700,000 and give it away," said the Rev. Bob Leopold. Give away $700,000? With no strings attached? To almost anyone who asks? "This is the start of something really big," said Leopold. After hearing about a local church that erected three 100-foot crosses at the cost of $700,000, …

Going to the Mat with Reformed Elephants
Well, that's kinda what Dale Coulter is trying to do: When Mark Noll’s Scandal of the Evangelical Mind hit the market in the early 1990s it created a “title” wave that continues to move out in multiple directions. This fact alone means that if evangelicalism is going to reboot its examination of its own intellectual resources–a …
My Lord and My God: The Word Was God
For an introduction, explanation and links to the entire work, click here. Having set forth the positions of the Ante-Nicene Fathers on the subject of the deity of Christ, we need to turn to those “God-breathed” scriptures to see if our position has foundation in inspiration. It is our purpose here to show that the …
Oh, Yes, the 1% (And Then Some) Should Give Back
Harry Binswanger doesn't think so: It’s time to gore another collectivist sacred cow. This time it’s the popular idea that the successful are obliged to “give back to the community.” That oft-heard claim assumes that the wealth of high-earners is taken away from “the community.” And beneath that lies the perverted Marxist notion that wealth …

Relink: Mark Thompson's "Are we really heretics and who cares?"
It's a document that's been on site for a long time, but lost in the shuffle. So I am relinking Mark Thompson's "Are we really heretics and who cares?". It was an address given at the Annual General Meeting of the Anglican Church League, Sydney, Thursday 19th August 2004, and was a presentation of their …

My Lord and My God: Faith of Our Fathers
For an introduction, explanation and links to the entire work, click here. When we engage any group that has missed an important essential of the truth, we usually start with the Bible. If the group with which we are discussing[1] things accepts the Bible as authoritative, then things are to some extent simpler; it becomes …
The Thankless End of the United Thank Offering–and a Reminder of the Consequences
And most of its board (until now with some autonomy from the Episcopal Church) aren't happy about it: With the stroke of a pen, the United Thank Offering Board (UTO) will possibly be rendered powerless and voiceless by Episcopal Church leadership. This is a complete reversal of a three-year study process that resulted in the …

Justin Welby's "Drunk Man" Needs to Sober Up. So Does Justin Welby.
It may come as a surprise to some of my Anglican friends, but I actually made one attempt to formally return to the Episcopal Church. That took place about thirty-five years ago. I attended and moved my membership to a small Episcopal church. One Sunday the selection from the Psalter was Psalm 69, which includes …
