    A Biblical Case for Seminaries

    I have read a great deal from those in favor of seminaries but never is a biblical case made for them. On the other hand, there are ones who claim they are unbiblical and they cite a number of verses like Gal. 1:15-17, John 14:26; 16:13-14, I John 2:27. These verses certainly express to me...

    Disprove Calvinist Soteriology

    I have a group here that's been studying eternal salvation for the last several weeks. We actually believe salvation is solely by the grace of God without the need for human conditions to be met. We agree with Reformed Theology for the most part. We were going to look at Bible verses...

    The Romans Nine-Thirteen Challenge

    Romans 9:13 of the Bible states, “As it is written, Jacob have I loved, but Esau have I hated.” Charles Spurgeon once said of this text, “I do not want it to be altered…To take off the edge of this terrible doctrine that makes real some people bite their lips so, I must just notice that this is...

    Christ is still here

    I've spent quite a bit of time running and participating in Christian/Bible forums and it always goes the same way.
