Jesus’ Teaching on Marriage and Gender – Things Unseen – Sinclair Ferguson

11 Apr 2024 Michael A

This post contains a 6-minute video by Pastor Sinclair Ferguson which clarifies Jesus’ teaching on gender and marriage. With all the confusion in the 21st century church, he is a voice of reason that stands with God, His word and His Messiah. You may do what you want, but there are consequences, as Ferguson indicated in the brief video. Also, as some recently tried to say about Ferguson and other evangelicals from across the pond, their compassion is actually in line with God’s, not with man’s.

The Wrath of God in Preaching – R C Sproul

5 Apr 2024 Michael A

This post features a sermon by R C Sproul on the Wrath of God in general. His sermon text is Leviticus 10, the Death of Nadab and Abihu for offering ‘strange fire’ before Yahweh. If your church is teaching you that the God of the Old Testament is the wrathful God and the God of the New Testament is all about grace, then you absolutely need to hear this sermon. A pastor actually spoke such words to me shortly after I was born again while reading through the Bible. There are many pastors who teach such error. Sproul says enough from the New Testament to confirm that the same God is the one present on the pages of both testaments; that is, that ‘God’s wrath’ is still a reality.
