This article originally appeared on my blog (Here). “For even the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give His life a ransom for many.” (Mark 10:45) Service is not a uniquely Christian concept. The language of service is something engrained throughout society....

Facebook A.I. run amok
Didn't happen to me but folks were randomly having their links to various news deleted by Facebook and they recently announced it was because the Artificial Intelligence put in charge after the human monitors were sent home due to the virus fears had a bug.
I'm going to start blaming PB's A.I. when folks... -
Half hearted apologies
How should one deal with half hearted apologies? Those that say things like, "sorry you were offended," or more recently from an employee (who is under me mind you), "I am sorry about the other day but you still weasel out of things."
Rarely, do they admit wrongdoing and do not change. Do you accept and move on? -
The 2020 Census
Has anyone taken the 2020 census yet. It's done online, now, as I'm sure you know.
It did it the other day. Took about 10 minutes. No sweat, no strain. Not a lot of questions are asked. -
Who has read Joe Morecraft's "Authentic Christianity?"
Last week at the GPTS Conference, I received a review copy of Morecraft's Authentic Christianity (2nd Ed. 8 vol.) from the publisher. I am looking forward to digging in. I think I am going to reread Thomas Ridgley's commentary alongside it for a study of the WLC.
Who has read it? What are your thoughts? Can anyone recount any instance that his adherence to theonomy influenced his... -
Greetings from the Northeastern United States!
Hello everyone!
I come from the non-denominational denomination of independent fundamental Baptists with a strong KJV-only, dispensational subscription. I discovered Reformed theology over the past year through private Scripture readings and the writings of Reformed men that lead me closer and closer to the Doctrines of Grace and the sovereignty of God in salvation. At first unpalatable, it... -

Calvinism and Mortality
With a calvinist mindset I realise
- we all have to die. (2,813,503 registered deaths in the United States in 2017)
- we will probably die from something. Something like 80% of men die WITH prostate cancer but NOT from prostate cancer. The distinction is important. The cause of death may be a car...

Are Live-Streamed Services to Be Considered Public Worship?
Greetings brothers,
In light of COVOID-19, there are many cancellations of public worship services and/or at risk Christians that ought to stay at home. As such, many of us will be watching live streamed services with our families.
This is categorically difficult for me, and there aren't a lot of reformed resources on the matter (obviously this was not a question the puritans or reformers...

Twenty-nine Years
This article originally appeared on my blog (Here). “Blessed are the dead who die in the Lord…their works follow them” (Revelation 14:13) David Brainerd (1718-1747) was an 18th century American missionary to the native American Indians of New York, Pennsylvania and New Jersey. Robert Murray...

A Refutation To The Charge That The Calvinistic View Of Predestination Is Pagan.
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...
