On Dobson, Obama, and the Road to Eternal Life

I have to say that the back and forth between James Dobson and Barack Obama on the Bible is one of the least edifying discussions we have going this election year. So Obama says that Leviticus tells us we can't eat shellfish?  Evidently Jeremiah Wright, like many of his counterparts on the right, never bothered …

Apologetics for the Rest of Us

There's no question Christians and Christianity face many challengers these days. But how do you answer them? What do you say when people ask, “Where does the Bible come from?” Or, “How do you know that God exists?” Or, “Isn’t Christ just a myth?” It is important not only to know what you believe, but …

When We Let the State Take Over God’s Role…

...we get problems like this: The Rev. Jack Hibbs, senior pastor of Calvary Chapel Chino Hills, said: “These judges crossed over from the realm of judicial or legislative powers into the church. They stepped inside of our churches, inside of our pulpits, inside of our Bible and redefined marriage for us.” The sooner we start …

Moses Maimonides on Prophecy

From his Guide to the Perplexed (II, XXXII): THERE are as many different opinions concerning Prophecy as concerning the Eternity or Non-Eternity of the Universe.

The End of Personal Evangelism is the End of England

This from (and note the source!) Investors Business Daily: British media are reporting that Arthur Cunningham and Joseph Abraham, American evangelical ministers who've been living in Great Britain for years, were told by a police community support officer to "stop handing out gospel leaflets in a predominantly Muslim area of Birmingham." Cunningham said the officer …

Obama Calls It Quits at the UCC

Barack Obama's decision to call it quits at Trinity UCC in Chicago is one that will certainly relieve his campaign handlers.  The spectacles of Jeremiah Wright and Michael Pfleger having their rants rebroadcast in an endless loop is certainly one that Obama and the campaign will find easier to deal with now that he has …

Getting Saved in America

This week's podcast is Getting Saved in America, a faculty address by Dr. Bill J. Leonard, at the time professor at Southern Baptist Theological Seminary.  He delivered it on 4 May 1983. I'm posting this as a sort of follow up to a recent discussion on faith and works that I became involved in.  Dr. …

Brian McLaren: Right at Home with the Reappraisers at Lambeth

As if he hasn't caused enough trouble with his fellow Evangelicals, Brian McLaren takes his Emergent roadshow to the upcoming Anglican Lambeth conference: Rumor has it that Brian Mclaren, one of the leaders of the emerging church movement, has been invited to address the assembled bishops at Lambeth. This should not be a surprise as …

The Church: Going Back to What?

Jonathan Stone explores the issue of "Primal Church:" When I speak of primal church I am not speaking of some sort of neanderthal church, but rather those primitive elements that still serve as the basic building blocks of the church. For example, geometrically speaking, we can think of the primitive shapes such as cones, spheres, …
