The world is really going to end this time!

I agree. The best since Reagan anyway. This is the best we could hope for IMO. As Ransom says, he is one who will stay out of the way and will let the Church be the Church. The Church in turn needs to stay away from the politics and actually be the church! I pray for his salvation! According...

The link you provided has nothing to do with the topic of this thread. I do agree with John MacArthur's position though. I pray for President Trump's safety and am fearful of what may possibly happen in our country if he was assassinated. We would likely have a total economic collapse followed...

President Trump is "God's Annointed" for the citizens of the United States. President Trump occupies the White House according to God's sovereign will and good pleasure, for his purpose, and to his glory! As those who name the name of Christ, we must acknowledge this and obey him in accordance...

Who exactly is supposed to "Bring them in from the fields of sin?"

Hark! ’tis the Shepherd’s voice I hear, Out in the desert dark and drear, Calling the *sheep who’ve gone astray, [*lambs] Far from the Shepherd’s fold away. Refrain: Bring them in, bring them in, Bring them in from the fields of sin; Bring them in, bring them in, Bring the *wand’ring ones to...

Just take the Presbyterian position and be done with it! Realize though that good Presbyterians (PCA, OPC) are far more biblical acknowledging that there is one Lord, one faith, and ONE BAPTISM! There is no such a thing as "Dual-Practice" baptism. As for Presbys, the only infants they baptize...

This is where I am proudly and unashamedly, a BAPTIST! One of the core Baptist distinctives is the Separation of Church and State which emerged from the "Free Churcch" movement and non-conformists who refused any state sanction and therefore insisted that they existed Independently from the...

You disagree with this? I have no problem with the statement. I just happen to believe that God has preserved his word for the English speaking people in the ESV, NASB, BSB, NKJV, Etc. :cool:

The Federalist view (Covenant Theology) makes provision for an "age of accountablility" although most Covenant Theologians probably would not use the term. I have heard RC Sproul argue that an infant child likely has no cognizance of the invisible things of God's creation and therefore could not...

Nobody, from nowhere, with nothing in particular to say? Welcome here!

I tried to make sense of his "Statement of Faith" but it is one big incoherent mess! He used to live in the Leona Valley area which made it convenient to show up at Lancaster Baptist from time to time as well as Grace Community. Looks like he had a personal vendetta against Bouquet Canyon...

Nut magnets attract other nut magnets! It is a simple rule of physics I think. In 1984, I remember Peter Ruckman coming to our Church in San Diego and a group of men came around who were so "separated" that they thought it was sinful to marry in this day and age. They thought Ruckman was...

I owe a debt of gratitude to Chuck Smith and the Calvary Chapel crowd in regards to their emphasis on expository preaching. I recall crying out to God telling him I really didn't want to be such a rebel at the "Model IFB Church" I was a member of at the time. I was in my car listening to...

Respect for actually following through and doing what you said you were going to do. Funny thing though is that she relocated to a country that seems significantly more conservative socially.
