Most of us know Louie Giglio has gone the way of the false teacher. He has left behind any credibility he had long ago with his uber-emotional sessions at his Passion Conference spurred on by the heretical bands Jesus Culture and Hillsong United. He has poisoned the minds of many a young adult over the … Read more
“And they devoted themselves to the apostles’ teaching and the fellowship, to the breaking of bread and the prayers.” Acts 2:42 There is little argument that the post-modern persona of the “church” has been grotesquely deformed from what the first-century bride of Christ looked like. The church has been prostituted. Her visible face is no … Read more
John Piper was once regarded as a great contender for the faith. He was the go-to guy for apologetics in Reformed theology and the one that was looked to when those with twisted soteriology espoused their false doctrine. He has written excellent books on living a holy life for God and had a way of explaining … Read more
Remember a few years ago when Matt Chandler rained on Steven Furtick’s parade? It was at Elevation Church’s 2012 Code Orange Revival.

My wife told me about it last week. I knew nothing about it, honestly (and pretty much, still don’t). I just don’t watch television very much at all.

Do you really expect the lost to have any semblance of Godly compassion towards human life? They can’t, they’re lost. This isn’t to say that all non-Christians are murderers, however, it is to say that only Christians believe that the unborn are human beings, made in the image of God, knit together by Him in their mother’s womb (Psalm 139:13). And it is only upon this foundation that we can objectively argue that life is sacred, to be preserved, respected, and protected. All other arguments are subjective.

On the most recent episode of his Reasonable Faith podcast, William Lane Craig, the world’s foremost apologist, responded to a four-year old blog about his position on a doctrine known as Universal Revelation Accessibilism.
