"That we should no longer be children, tossed to and fro and carried about with every wind of doctrine…” (Ephesians 4:14)
Many people today react negatively to the words, “theology” and “doctrine.” They are said to involve dry, irrelevant matters, which have no bearing on real life. If that...

In what sense was St. Augustine a Calvinist?
I'm about to start reading On Christian Doctrine, by St. Augustine. I see many Reformed people ( and some on this board) refer to Augustine as a Calvinist. In which of his works does he discuss his views on predestination? In what sense was he a Calvinist? I know St. Augustine influenced Calvin, but would he affirm the 5 Points of Calvinism? -

Question for KJV onlyists...
So...I know I posted about KJV updates recently and, please don't think it's a hobby-horse, but I've got a question that's been niggling since my last thread...

CSB verses HCSB
I normally use the ESV as my main translation but also love my HCSB. I was wondering if it is worth getting a CSB. In other words are the changes in the CSB sufficient to warrent getting this translation rather than continuing with the HCSB? -
"An Argument Against Exclusive Psalmody"
Lane Keister has an interesting post up at his blog (www.greenbaggins.wordpress.com, top post, under that title). He's not trying to cover all the bases, but wants to make one specific point. I think it's interesting (and I agree with him).
Read the comments. They're interesting, too. -
How are you all so sure of what you're supposed to do?
I'm 28, and I feel like I'm being the through the ringer. I'm intensely frustrated because I've been praying for 2.5 years about my vocation.
When the Lord saved me, I was on track to a literature degree and writing fiction but fiction is pretty frowned upon by believers, so I halted.
I refuse to write allegory. But I have no sense of direction of what to do. I can write and speak well and... -
