Luther in the Fast LaneA brilliant Ph.D. Roman Catholic priest remarks: "Eureka! I've discovered *the* secret key that finally unlocks Heaven's door." Thrilled, he emails his "theological novum" to the Pope who quickly replies he's incorrect. Though bummed but through the increasing power of his newfangled salvation, he replies that he and his buds are splitting unless the Vicar of Christ knuckles under and agrees with his terms & conditions. His Holiness texts: "Ok?" Now consumed with power, twittering millions of followers by the moonlight, they take off in a huff to embrace his new truth. Sadly, his soul is immediately required of him but as a consolation his followers name their newly-minted and growing denomination after him just as the strike of midnight. Soli Deo Gloria! |

“God has left clues in the world He has made. His invisible qualities are clearly seen so that men are without excuse (Romans). “There are people who say the earth is 6,000 years old based predominately on genealogies (in Genesis). They come up with a time grid that they can measure from Adam to the time of the Second Adam, Jesus Christ. The problem with that is the genealogies are incomplete. And we know [this] by testing Scripture in light of Scripture ... One thing we can say is you cannot tell on the basis of the Bible that the world is 6,000 years old. “If you look at the world that God has made, there are some clues that the Earth may be older than that ... “For example, we face the reality that nothing travels faster than the speed of light. And that billions of light years separate us from distinct galaxies. And that leads logically to the [conclusion] that the age of the Universe is measured in billions rather than thousands of years.” -The Bible Answer Man, Hank Hanegraaff, “[URL=http://www.oneplace.com/ministries/bible-answer-man/player/question-answers-213923.html]]]Question & Answers[/URL],” August 10, 2011 Does this sound logical? |

for not your pope wrote: This is just as sad as all the Roman Catholic priests who have and continue to molest young boys, is this a trend in the Roman Catholic church, along with baby trafficking? Tell me nyp, how can one defend a denomination that is riddled with lies, immoral behavior, and still call their leader 'holy father'? Apples and oranges. In this case pastors Young are teaching nonsense. Roman Catholic Church teaching has always protected the least of these from conception to natural death. That there is a pastor who hurts children is on him. St. John Chrysostom: “Hell is paved with priests' skulls” "Everyone to whom much is given, much is required." This also applies to the Youngs and their millions of followers. |

There are two ends of this spectrum: (a.) the modern Protestant thinking "no church required" (via a superficial reading of the the Bible) and (b.) the Reformers' "necessity of the church" (discovered through a deeper understanding of the biblical text): The mother of Philip Melanchthon [Luther's protégé] had followed her son in the Protestant Reformation. Dying, she adjured him to tell her unreservedly in which faith she should die. He answered: "My mother, the new [Protestant] faith is the most convenient; the other is most secure." At the end of the day, which end of this spectrum is more secure: (a.) or (b.)? Why, too, is Calvin absolutely sold-out on Church membership and attendance to ensure you arrive in Heaven? |

John UK wrote: Precisely Being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the word of God, which liveth and abideth for ever. 1 Peter 1:23 KJV So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God. Romans 10:17 KJV If man can do nothing, he can at least devote himself to the reading of the scriptures, which are able to make him wise unto salvation. And that from a child thou hast known the holy scriptures, which are able to make thee wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus. 2 Timothy 3:15 KJV As in the "Doxology," Praise God from whom all Scriptures flow!Since the fount of all Protestant English translations is the Roman Catholic Church's manuscripts, do you borrow their tome, read it, then beat him about the head with it who remains in that very fount until he falls out on his fool Protestant crown? |

Berlake wrote: But John Last week you were teaching that all we had to do was repent and be baptised just as taught in Acts 2:38. Then the Spirit will come into our lives. Have you changed your mind about this? Do you now teach that we cannot repent of our own accord? If you're presumed dead (20,000 leagues under the sea type of dead), you can't even repent on your own. A fly in the monergist's ointment. |

It'll take just a few seconds but change the rest of your life. I know, I've heard this from CCC and EE representatives at the door for decades. Sounds like a fish tale: They've got their Bible in their right hand, but only read to you from this little booklet in their left. And what's on the inside cover of the last page of their little booklet? That right, the "Sinners Prayer" and signature line. The catch: If you don't pray their apocryphal sinners prayer and sign you can't get saved? That's right. You're caught on their pseudopigraphical hook. What you win them with, you win them to. "Win, Build, Send"? Sound more like, "Catch, Lobotomize, Program, Press Go." In this case, they win you to a virtual biblical vacuum. It's no wonder there's not much of an [URL=http://www.amazon.com/Scandal-Evangelical-Mind-Mark-Noll/dp/0802841805]]]Evangelical Mind[/URL] left. These CCC and EE legions have all but obliterated it. Honestly, what, then, is Evangelicalism? |
