    Patriarchy, Abuse, and the Bible: Responding to Calvary Chapel Pastor

    This story documents accusations of Patriarchal abuse of wives at Doug Wilson's Christ Church in Moscow, Idaho. (Maybe this is an Idaho thing). https://www.vice.com/en/article/inside-the-church-that-preaches-wives-need-to-be-led-with-a-firm-hand/ "Jean’s then-husband’s drinking increased. She...

    Patriarchy, Abuse, and the Bible: Responding to Calvary Chapel Pastor

    This transcript is worth reading, even if it did come from Julie Roys. :oops: Some important points from the interview - the "Patriarchal" emphasis, that God wants abused women to submit to mistreatment by abusive husbands, is very similar to what is taught and practiced in Islam, and would be...

    Revivalism - Blessing or Blunder?

    John Piper is this true?

    Here is an article that addresses the situation - over the years I have read disturbing reports of churches that pressure wives to remain with and cover up for abusive husbands, and even punish wives for reporting spousal abuse, and accuse them of "gossip" for asking for help with a husband who...

    Convicting. Or Should Be.

    I am puzzled by all this talk about how Iran or Iranians want to "kill all the Jews." I wonder how many people are aware that since the time of the first Iranian constitution in 1906 until now, there has been a seat reserved in the Iranian parliament for a Jewish member...

    John Piper is this true?

    Here is what John Piper said, straight from the horse's mouth: "Now that's one kind of situation. Just a word on the other kind. If it's not requiring her to sin but simply hurting her, then I think she endures verbal abuse for a season, and she endures perhaps being smacked one night, and then...

    Shunning in the IFB Churches

    I don't know if shunning is any worse in IFB churches than in other movements - it's a mixed bag, how IFB churches respond. Church No. 1 - I left one IFB church after one of their missionaries accused me of heresy for not believing in dispensationalism. The pastors assured me of my support and...

    Charles Haddon Spurgeon was also a pacifist. He would definitely not be acceptable in any IFB church today. https://www.lewrockwell.com/2017/07/chuck-baldwin/christian-war-fever-2/ “Long have I held that war is an enormous crime. . . . The church, we affirm, can neither be preserved nor can...

    The TWO THOUSAND YEAR Slander of God!

    As of today, the controversial Modalist/Sabellian/Oneness verbiage about God in 3 "manifestations" is still in the doctrinal statement of The Potter's House church, where T.D. Jakes is still pastor: "There is one God, Creator of all things, infinitely perfect, and eternally existing in three...

    The TWO THOUSAND YEAR Slander of God!

    First Baptist of Hammond was well-known for its stand against pants on women. I am under the impression that they no longer emphasize that stuff. The FBC-Hammond web site contains this statement: "What should I wear? There is not a dress code at First Baptist Church for members or guests...
