And the answer to it all is, the grace of a loving and faithful God revealed in our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ - what Matthew Henry called, "God's free favour and all the blessed fruits of it."

I am bothered by it not because I’m old fashioned or because I am a busy body telling other people how to live. I’m bothered by it because this is not just a matter of what they think and even what you think or I think. I am bothered by it because there is a third party in this matter and that third party is God the Maker of Heaven and Earth…and He does not consider it acceptable! I care what He thinks!

The head of the Family Research Council on Thursday suggested the Southern Poverty Law Center sparked hatred that led accused gunman Floyd Lee Corkins II to shoot a security guard at the conservative Christian lobbying group’s headquarters.

The University of Texas denied Woodberry tenure. He then applied to 108 other schools. No U.S. institution offered him tenure.

The bishops dance with the devil when they invite government to use its coercive power on their behalf, and there's no clearer example than the Affordable Care Act. They happily joined their moral authority to the government's legal authority by supporting mandatory health insurance. They should not have been surprised when the government used its reinforced power to require Catholic institutions to pay for insurance plans that cover abortions and birth control.

Let's get the government out of this work, and let's somehow regain the Biblical principles of mercy ministry and let the 250 million evangelical Christians…get our collective acts together and reclaim our rightful responsibilities in mercy ministries.

If these words in our Confessional standards are legalistic and tend towards Phariseeism then those who find them unbiblical should see that they are removed from our Standards, because if they are not a Biblical summary of the truths of Holy Scripture we shouldn’t confess them

The prosperity and power gospel Robertson has preached fits perfectly well with the kind of counsel he’s giving in recent years.
