Racism Heresy: Says Who, Ye Presby and Reformed?
Is Kinism a heresy?
It is difficult for Protestants to call for something to be heresy across denominational lines without an agreed upon basis or set of pronouncements. This is especially when “heretic” now has secular usage. In this situation, it is not merely several distinct Presbyterian and Reformed denominations which may have similar standards regarding race, but who... Continue Reading
Side B Christians Are Not Qualified for Ordination
Anyone seeking ordination as a church leader who continues to identify himself publicly as SSA and claims he qualifies to be ordained chooses friendship with the world while being an enemy of God.
To put this into perspective, by insisting on identifying oneself with a specific sexual sin and to positively wear such terminology as “Gay” Christian or “same sex attracted” Christian” reveals a lack of shame of sinful passions, comfort with such passions, and embracing such passions. There are no other sins or sinful temptations that Christians... Continue Reading
Lamentable Slander
Responding to "A Call to Prayer & Lament"
A Call to Prayer & Lament shows no evidence of following Christ’s commands regarding offenses in Matthew 18, and it appears to be a means of prosecution by public appeal. In other words, this letter was not written in good-faith. To the leadership of pcaprayerandlament.com, I remind you, unsubstantiated accusations violate the Ninth Commandment... Continue Reading
How The Southern Baptist Convention Blew Up Its Credibility To Appease The #MeToo Movement
The Southern Baptist Convention has squandered much of its moral credibility crusading for leftist causes, such as amnesty and DEI.
In 2021, Dr. Russell Fuller publicly remarked, “Southern Baptists, not only do we not know what a pastor is, we do not know what adultery is either.” His observation appears increasingly accurate. The repeated and deliberate efforts by two adults to rendezvous and sustain a relationship over more than a decade, even when separated by hundreds... Continue Reading
A Vision For Church Health
The congregation side of Church revitalization.
It is the proclamation and adoration of the Lord Jesus Christ that leads a church to have and pursue a vision for church health, because a healthy church ultimately desires what Christ desires—for him to build his Church. Such churches are fast-bound in their love of the Gospel and long to see Christ’s Kingdom advance. ... Continue Reading
Lessons Learned
The issue is not that leadership is male, but unqualified and ungodly men have been entrusted with sacred office.
The PCA does not need to create a third way. There is no perfect denomination. You might have grown up PCA, love the PCA, and been ordained in the PCA for a long time. If you love something, sometimes you need to know your views have changed and that a new home has been found.... Continue Reading
Sermon Criticism
Though you may know the biblical passage before you better than most in your church, you do not have a corner on the market when it comes to the illuminating work of the Holy Spirit.
A number of people might offer compliments about the sermon, but it would be the critical remark that echoes in my mind for days on end. It was always a frustration when someone disagreed with a point or observation that I made, and my own remarks were based in hours of research, reflection, and examination... Continue Reading
The Hidden Danger of Online Sermons
Technology has given us access to vast resources that can be a blessing. But let’s not forget that God’s primary provision for our spiritual growth is found in our local church.
We may be in danger of becoming like the quarreling Corinthian church that Paul admonished because some identified as followers of Paul, others of Apollos, and still others of Cephas (1 Cor. 1:12–13). Ultimately, we follow Christ and are united with other believers under his lordship. But one way we can guard the unity of... Continue Reading
Walk and Chew Gum? Yes, But Watch Your Step
Prudence demands that we recognize true biblical binaries while also being cognisant of when to answer a fool, and when to ignore him; when someone is avoiding an issue by employing the either/or fallacy.
I personally try to model a legitimate “both/and” to my congregation. As a pastor and as a nationalist of the Christian variety, I lead the congregation in prayer each Lord’s Day, and consistently ask that God would grant reformation to His Church and revival to this nation. It’s a sort of foil towards those who... Continue Reading
A Call to Pray for the Church in Rwanda
In recent months, our brothers and sisters in Rwanda have entered a season of deep trial, one that calls the entire Body of Christ to prayer, solidarity, and biblical hope.
Our Rwandan brothers and sisters are not asking for political advocacy. They are not calling for international outrage. They are asking us to pray. Across Africa today, the gospel is advancing with a quiet, steady strength. Churches are being planted, leaders are being trained, and communities are being transformed by the Word of God....
