For about two months now, my wife and I have been attending Grace Church in Laguna Niguel. It is an excellent church with solid, biblical teaching. Our first day at Grace Church, my wife and I were confronted with a situation that we did not expect, but understood that the Lord is sovereign over all events in our lives and that His will is perfect in all things. ...
My wife and I visited Grace Church of Laguna Niguel this morning. A few of the congregants informed my wife that the pastor was teaching from Romans 9 today. Both my wife and I looked forward to it. Right from the start, pastor James Wenger gave the main points of the sermon. The passage of Scripture was from Romans 9:14, "what shall we say then? Is there injustice ...
It appears that George is restless! As Stephen wrote in a previous post, George keeps on repeating his arguments. The previous article has nothing to do with us declaring that George will not debate James White. The article is pointing to the questioning of George by James White and the ridiculous answers given by George. We have indeed asked George to provide the video of his cross-examination of ...
How plain and pointed is the language of Holy Writ! It is man who, by his words, darkeneth counsel. It is impossible to state the case more clearly, or strongly, than it is stated here. Our salvation is not "according to our works;" that is to say, it is not due to ...
For the rest of this year and perhaps into 2010, we will feature chapter 4 of A.W Pink's book, The Sovereignty of God in Salvation. May God be glorified in the lives of His saints. Let our starting point be Scripture! Prayerfully read and meditate on these postings, may God cause us to increase in His grace and knowledge! In chapter 12, Pink declares the following about the ...
Very recently, I had a discussion with "Frank" in the thread on James White's closing arguments against our friend George Bryson. Frank brought up Paul and how Paul stated that he had received mercy because he acted in ignorance and unbelief. Today's devotional by Vincent Cheung is excellent and addresses this very topic. Here is the devotional. May it bless you to God's glory! "I thank Christ Jesus our ...
This morning's daily devotion (FD Daily Devotions) was so good I had to share it with you all. Those that have subscribed to the Daily Devotions by email will no doubt agree that the past 9 days have been filled with meditative thoughts on the Messiah's work on the cross. They started out slow, laying the foundational principles for the studies, but now that the second chapter has ...
Today's message was a beautiful reminder of our Lord's great love toward us His people. Paul in his letter to the Ephesians in chapter 3 prayed the following, "For this reason I bow my knees to the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, from whom the whole family in heaven and earth is named, that he would grant you, according to the riches of his glory, to be ...
Pastor-Teacher Ken Silva (one of the hardest working people in apologetics these days) has a post on the Apprising Ministries site here that gives an inside look to an "Emergence Christianity" "Easter Gathering." In case you've ever wondered what EC folks do when they gather and express their anthropocentric religious systems, click through and give it a look!
This Palm Sunday marked our first visit to the church of Pastor Ken Jones; Greater Union Baptist Church. It was great to see brothers and sisters that we had not seen for some time. It was a great experience for my wife and I. We were received with grace and the love of the saints was evident! Once worship began, there was a reading of Scripture and the ...
There is great news for Joey. By grace alone, a donor is available for Joey. It was reported today that Joey would be rushed into emergency transplant surgery. Since we've known the Enriquez family, this was a prayer request to the Lord, with the hope that the Lord would provide. The day has come! Please continue to pray for the family. May the Lord give the doctors tremendous ...
