This turned into much more than I originally intended this evening. It's kind of a 🧵 on my thoughts about baptism. I'm passionate about it - but I'll be the first to admit that my study of the topic to date is not yet well-developed. You're welcome to rip me to shreds.
@paulhess1689 Paul, I'm sure you've researched the topic extensively based on what I've seen of your content. My ultimate goal is to assemble a well-organized, finely detailed collection of the best arguments for my position - something I have not yet completed. What I find to be.

I’m only in favor the full popish treatment for Calvin, Bavinck, Vos, Machen, Murray, Van Til and Kline.
I found some Popish canonization. Let the reader understand.

On the one hand, I sympathize with the people speaking out against hagiography. But to use the word tainted to describe JMac’s body of work is absurd and offensive; by this measure, we are all tainted (and yet we know that’s not what Roys means). If JMac is guilty of something,.
So gross. The Roys Report obituary of John MacArthur spent more time openly criticizing him & recounting examples of his "tainted legacy" than they do reporting anything positive or even neutral. If you want to read a 1600 word slam-fest disguised as an obituary, this is the

Why Presbyterians baptize infants -- . a concise yet extremely convincing 6-minute explanation by Jonny Gibson!

Why doesn’t Doug just join the PCA? . Oh wait, that’s right - Doug meet the minimum qualifications to be a PCA pastor. And he proves this to us again and again.
In his Moscow mood article, KDY was critical of my character: “For the mood that attracts people to Moscow is too often incompatible with Christian virtue . ” 1/12.

If we didn't have antagonizers like Wilson, I'd feel less confident about the PCA's Gospel commitment.
From a good friend and conscientious presbyter who effectively captures the personal and parliamentary dynamics of what happened with Tim Brindle and Kevin DeYoung—long story short is that Wilson & Co. are woefully ignorant of what went down:. ### begin paste ###. I don't.

How most profoundly I deserve the damnation of hell in my affirmative sins and in my continual lack of piety and love for the Lord, yet I won’t get it due to his love and mercy that is even more profound. What an odd state is this life of “already not yet” while our Savior is.

It is perfectly emblematic of the wretchedness of the human condition that "holiness" teachers who claim to be without sin are sinning by making that very claim.

@PADutchRunner @YourCalvinist That's an unholy ritual for unrepentant sinners to affirm the false doctrine of original sin and to feign contrition after sinning all week. I know you'll say that you're repentant, but the proof of what you truly love is in the sinful lusts of the flesh you keep serving.

On Sunday, I said the following prayer of confession: . Almighty, everlasting God and Father, we acknowledge and confess that we indeed were conceived and born in sin and, therefore, inclined to all evil and slow to all good; that we unceasingly transgress your holy commandments,

Certainty? . Sean McDowell and William Lane Craig face off against Dr. Lane Tipton on a critically-important epistemologically-oriented issue. As Christians, do we say that Jesus is "probably" our Savior? . Or do we proclaim a certain faith? . And if certain, what, exactly,

Framing church history like typical Roman Catholic apologist:. ———-> appeals to the FLESH. Framing church history as Gospel-centric:. ———> appeals to the SPIRIT.
The fact that the Eastern Orthodox (among other groups) make the exact same claim should give people pause here. It's easy to frame church history as a winner-take-all narrative. What is needed is more appreciation of the complexity of history, more humility, more engagement.

Sounds like a refresh of Horton’s The Whitehorse Inn. I would definitely tune in!.
Envisioned: A Protestant Justice League in which I team up with @YourCalvinist @DrJordanBCooper and @gavinortlund to defend Protestant Orthodoxy against heresy. (Or X-Men if you prefer Marvel to DC).

The Gospel is….so amazing….so divine.
Refuting @RealBrysonGray on James 2 and Romans 3: Justification Is By Faith Alone and Not Works. Q: Do Paul and James CONTRADICT each other on JUSTIFICATION?. A: NO. They are addressing TWO DIFFERENT ERRORS, not preaching TWO DIFFERENT GOSPELS. Let us walk through the.

I'm starting to get a little obsessed with the Trinity Hymnal. Anyone else feel the same? What an incredible collection it is; I only wish I could play the piano.

WLC destroys classical theism in 52 seconds. Now that he has published his own systematic “theology,”WLC is wild!
