The idea brought forth by those who claim that we who hold to God's sovereignty in all things are similar to the Greek pagans is without warranted. As Ronald Nash states in his book The Gospel and the Greeks, these so called gods were limited by their own weakness both physical and moral. Not to...

How to Compare Calvin, Turretin , and Hodge?
I have read the Institutes of the Christian religion by Calvin, and the 4 part Systematic Theology by Charles Hodge, but not anything by Turretin himself.
How would he compare to Calvin and Hodge on reading difficulty? -
What does the term "Legalism" mean precisely?
Perhaps there will be many opinions on this, but I have always thought that "legalism" meant trying to establish your own righteousness by means of the law--in other words, to try and merit your salvation by careful law-keeping, like the Pharisees did.

Sabbatarian legalism?
So I'm looking in to reading more and more on the Sabbath since it isn't something I've been too preoccupied with in the past. I finished Pipa's and Chantry's books and will eventually wade into the older and harder stuff. Some of the other stuff I came across was from folks like Marva Dawn, expressed concern over being "legalistic" about keeping the Sabbath on Sunday instead of any other day... -
How To Treat Animals
So, this is something I've thought about for a long time. I have a sensitivity for the lives of all animals, but most people around me don't. If a spider is in our house, generally I will try to catch it and release it outside, while most people I know would kill it. In these situations, I'm typically the one who feels like the weird one. Anyway, please read this from John Angell James, from... -
Steelites
Can someone tell me what's the deal with the Steelite Covenanters, especially in the RPNA? Why do they view it as wrong to visit naparc churches? Is there any merit to their views?

Prison ministry
I totally understand getting involved with aspects of your community, but I always think passages like Hebrews 13:3 seems to be about inprisonment out of persecution for the faith.
Thoughts? -
How would I go about getting involved in a prison ministry?
Greetings!
I am wanting to get involved in outreach programs around my community. I am particularly interested in prison ministries. It is an overlooked ministry opportunity. Does anybody know how I would go about doing that?
I am in Jackson Mississippi, for reference.
Thanks!

Apologetics Refuting The Atheist Claim That Jesus Was A Resurrected Zombie
It has been quite common on various atheist websites that seek to refute Christianity to use the argument that when Jesus was resurrected from the dead it was no different than what we see in modern zombie movies. The zombies come back to life and start attacking people and eating them, and...

Apologetics Critique Of Deism
Deism is defined as the belief that reason and and the Natural world are sufficient to determine the existence of God. Deists believe God is not knowable and untouchable. God is seen as the first cause of all creation, but he is not interactive within creation. Here is an analogy, think of God...
