Antithetical Doctrines Provide Gospel Clarity – Mike Gendron, Proclaiming The Gospel

1 Nov 2022 Michael A

This newsletter emphasizes the antitheses in our culture that make the light of the gospel brighter. Some of those he noted include: Jesus will remain in heaven until He appears a second time, without reference to sin (Heb. 9:28). ANTITHESIS: Rome’s false Christ returns every day to be offered for the sins of the living and the dead (CCC, 1374, CCC, 1414). Jesus finished the work of redemption on the cross (Hebrews 9:12, 10:12). ANTITHESIS: Rome’s counterfeit Christ continues the work of redemption on an altar (CCC, 1367, CCC, 1405). Jesus redeemed believers from the curse of the Law, having become a curse for us (Gal. 3:10). ANTITHESIS: Rome’s false Christ requires Catholics to obey the law to attain salvation (CCC, 2068).

The Most Hated Christian Doctrine – John MacArthur

25 Oct 2022 Michael A

Dr. MacArthur opened his sermon by mentioning a few questions from a survey on evangelicalism; participant responses, by percentage, were given. That modern evangelicalism suffers from biblical illiteracy was apparent. He put that on church leaders for their teaching that falls short of scripture, and is largely devoid of truth. He talked about how hard it is to witness the biblical gospel because it must begin with ‘the most hated doctrine’ of scripture, that man is a depraved sinner. He used scripture to show what happened to Jesus, and then to the disciples for teaching that biblical gospel. [If you’re a new Christian, or have been under unbiblical teaching for some time, then this sermon will help you understand the biblical perspective of the gospel and witnessing it].

John MacArthur: MODERN DAY MIRACLES??

7 Oct 2022 Michael A

The following 2-minute sermon excerpt by the YouTube site, 5 Minute Christianity, makes the point that an apostle was present when every miracle of the New Testament occurred. MacArthur went on to specify that people in the churches of Acts had no ‘gift of healing’ as scripture indicates that many suffered illnesses unto death; he said that healing was given as a sign to show unbelievers that the apostle’s teaching was credible…. [Therefore, what is MacArthur implying about modern-day healers?]

9 Sep 2022 Michael A

5 Minutes in Church History, hosted by Dr. Stephen Nichols, is a weekly podcast that provides an informal and informative look at church history…. Unlike the Great Awakening of the 18th century, the revivalist preaching of the so-called “Second Great Awakening” left many people disillusioned with Christianity. On this episode of 5 Minutes in Church History, Dr. Stephen Nichols takes us to a region in New York that still bears scars from the 19th century. [He briefly discusses Joseph Smith; William Miller; Ellen White; and the Oneida Utopian Community.]

This post contains a 90-second video about Burning Man Festival; two other posts in this blog, that discussed Burning Man are also linked. This is part of the ongoing series on Paganism, which aims to show examples of the religious and secular expressions of Paganism as they manifest themselves in the western world.

CULTURAL INFILTRATION OF THE CHURCH – Pastor John MacArthur

22 Jun 2022 Michael A

Pastor MacArthur explained that the current utopian philosophies that the west is embracing began 300 years ago with Jean-Jacques Rousseau, and those were imbibed by Marx and other influential thinkers who hated God and viewed Christianity as oppressive…. He explained how contemporary evangelicalism has incorporated these in their strategies of church building [pragmatism… which is unbiblical because it derives from man… and the Bible states in Acts that ‘God is building His church’]

1 Corinthians 6:15-20 On Sexual Sin, Part 2 of 2

6 May 2022 Michael A

This post looks at the teachings of SBC pastor J D Greear on sexual sin, comparing them to 1 Corinthians 6:15-20; MacArthur’s Bible Commentary explanations are used to explain scripture. Greear stated his beliefs about sexual sin in the one-minute video below; thereafter, you will find verses 15-20 of 1 Corinthians 6 and explanations of that text from the MacArthur Bible Commentary. There is a vast difference between Greear’s stance and that of the Bible. I am speculating that this difference derives from the SBC’s having incorporated Marxist’s ideologies via Resolution 9 whereby they deemed that CRT and intersectionality could be used “as an analytical tool subordinate to scripture.”
