Christian Hymns: Jesus, Thy Blood and Righteousness; The Church’s One Foundation; Guitarist Brian Cochran

31 May 2023 Michael A

This post contains two Christian Hymns from the Trinity Hymnal: Jesus, Thy Blood and Righteousness; and The Church’s One Foundation. Lyrics are below each music video. Singing and guitar by Brian Cochran, who created the videos for his YouTube site. On Sunday, May 28, the pastor of the church I attend used the first hymn as part of our morning worship; the lyrics of this hymn are so wonderful, I was moved to find that version of it on YouTube and post it for others to hear. Lyrics have been posted so that readers might sing along; might use these as part of family worship….

Hell: Is God Unfair? Voddie Baucham Provides Biblical Clarification

27 May 2023 Michael A

This post contains two videos on hell. The first is 2-minutes 28-seconds in length; therein, Voddie Baucham provides a biblical explanation of hell that you may not have heard before. His explanation silences all those who say that it was unfair for God to have saved only some people from hell…. The second video, 15 minutes, is the son of pastor John Piper, Abraham Piper, who via Tic Toc rants and mocks hell. The video was produced because A Piper has over a million YouTube followers and his erroneous teaching needs to be challenged.

SBC Preacher J D Greear on Gay Marriage

26 May 2023 Michael A

The purpose of this post is to show what has happened to the values of, SBC preacher, J D Greear between the years of 2014 and 2021. He flip-flopped from holding biblical doctrine to holding un-biblical doctrine. In the initial video, from 2014, you will hear Pastors Voddie Baucham, Russell Moore and J D Greear discussing gay marriage. These men also say a lot about biblical marriage and what has happened via cultural influences. Each man was pro-Bible in his doctrine. In the second video, 2021, you will hear what J D Greear said then about gay marriage and homosexuality. His doctrinal stance had become anti-Bible. In the second video, sound advice is offered for SBC members.

Must Watch: The Most Evil Religion In The World

25 May 2023 Michael A

This post contains a thorough video explanation of the biggest errors of the Roman Catholic Church. Those errors are concerning the doctrine of justification as presented in the Bible. Dr. James White gives an overview of those during the initial 3 minutes of the video and I have provided a few more specifics to help readers who are unfamiliar with that doctrine. [Host site video description.] “Why Catholicism is dangerous. With Voddie Baucham, James White, Matt Walsh, Michael Knowles, Pope Francis, and Robert Barron.”

Jesus, The Mediator – Augustine of Hippo

21 May 2023 Michael A

This post contains a 6-minute reading from The City of God by Saint Augustine about the Christ’s mediator-ship. The video is informative and comforting to hear: the reader’s voice and the imagery are soothing. I like this site for that reason. Below the video is a bio of Augustine for those who know nothing of him.

Covenant Theology | Justification by Faith Alone | Saving Faith – Pastor Patrick Hines

16 May 2023 Michael A

Pastor Hines opened by reading the following passages: Titus 2:11-14; Romans 5:17-21; Romans 3:20-26; Genesis 3:22-24; and Genesis 2:16, 17. Afterwards, he shared a 2 minute quotation from a book on justification written by Michael Horton which conveyed misunderstandings that he and his wife had about justification even though they had been instructed in a biblical church. Part of the quotation from Michael Horton’s book is as follows: Many people have told me “I feel like there was grace for me at the beginning sufficient to be saved; I was totally forgiven, slate wiped clean…;” but now it seems like, “do more, be more… and I wonder if there is still enough grace for me after blowing it so many times.” Pastor Hines is preaching on this doctrine so people do not have to go around wondering such things, but can be more secure via a biblical understanding….

Your Doctrine is not Enough – C H Spurgeon

15 May 2023 Michael A

This post contains a 3-minute C H Spurgeon devotional about the resurrection based on the following text: Philippians 3:10 that I may know him and the power of his resurrection, and may share his sufferings, becoming like him in his death. His big point is that believing in the resurrection is the foundation or the root of the spiritual fruit of fellowship with Christ

Justin Peters interview on the UN-biblical teachings of Beth Moore

13 May 2023 Michael A

This post contains a 58-minute video of a Justin Peters’ interview. He was speaking with woman’s Bible teacher, Susan Heck about Beth Moore. Peters asked specific questions to Susan Heck via which she critiqued Beth Moore. The initial part of the interview covered errors in Moore’s content, then about complementarianism vs egalitarianism; then miscellaneous questions about husbands and wives…. Below the video are links to various credible women’s Bible teachers and authors, resources for a variety of topics mentioned during the interview. I was very moved to learn, during Justin’s introduction, that Susan Heck has memorized the entire New Testament during her 30 years of ministering to women; her husband is a preacher who has done the same.

Where can seekers find community outside organized religion? Meet The Nearness – RNS [Part 1 of 2]

Therein, he uses scripture and personal testimony of his conversion. Part 2 will be posted tomorrow
