No banning from me.....
You may recall or you probably don't.....
I posted a few days ago that I would be banning the usual suspects who do nothing but incessantly fight and scratch and bite over the same old garbage day after day ad nausem and tattletale ad nausem.
I won't be. One regular member approached me and told me that as a female, I have no right to moderate men. And that it is possible to do what they are doing and still going out and evangelize the lost..
I was told that I just didn't understand... -
Are the Lost Allowed to Seek God?
Does God allow people to seek God and put their trust in Christ? Yes, usually, but not always. Romans 11 teaches God does harden the hearts of some people for His purpose. Ditto for Judas who was not allowed to "come to Jesus." (John 6:65)
Now there are none who seek God all the time, as we are not seeking God when sinning, and we all have fallen short of the glory of God. Does this truth prevent some, most, of the lost from seeking God some of the time? Nope. The fields are white for... -
A Timeline of the KJV-Only Movement
I am compiling a timeline of the KJV-Only movement. I will post what I have up until 1970. Feel free to add dates, disagree, etc. Also note that this is designed to be an historical study, not a discussion on the merits of the movement. I will ignore posts that go the wrong direction on this. -
Does God Always Get His Way With Man?
Interesting question, "does God always get His way/will with man. With some quick Scriptural fact-checking it would appear, no, God doesn't always get His way with man. But it's far from that simple.
I'll get into some fact-checking and the reason why it's not that simple. The interesting part for me is that God's "Sovereign Will" rises to the forefront. There are countless verses of Scripture that teach the Sovereign Will of God-- that what He has predetermined to take place in this... -

Baptism of the Holy Spirit
If you were raised up from a young child through the Baptist ranks as I was, most likely, the phrase "baptism of the Holy Spirit" carries a totally different meaning/definition than that of the Pentecostals/Church of God/Foursquare.
First, let me say that I'm not denying the filling of the Holy Spirit with the evidence of speaking in other tongues. No one can deny that fact, it's clearly seen many times in Scripture. I'm stating that the original meaning of the phrase "baptism of the Holy... -
All of the Conditions for the Salvation of God's Elect Were Fulfilled By Christ
Via Scott Price's(Pastor of Gospel of Grace Ministries) Facebook page.
Very common to see ads pop up in my newsfeed on FB. Below is a local church 15 minutes away teaching the complete opposite of what Gospel of Grace Ministries does. The vast majority of churches are 100% in agreement with the beliefs in the picture below. What I've been getting used to is the amount of people who claim to believe the doctrines of grace being okay with the statements below, like it doesn't make a bit of... -
Will the LORD Actually Sit Upon the Throne of David in Zion Per Ps 132:11-18
Do Baptists believe these words they read?
Here is what is said in those verses and the answer before comments should be a yes or a no.
11 The LORD hath sworn in truth unto David; he will not turn from it; Of the fruit of thy body will I set upon thy throne.
12 If thy children will keep my covenant and my testimony that I shall teach them, their children shall also sit upon thy throne for evermore.
13 For the LORD hath chosen Zion; he hath desired it for his habitation.
14 This is my... -
Finding Qualified Young Pastors
As a "boomer", I recall many young men of my era in Bible College/Seminary training to be pastors. Many of those freshly-scrubbed faces served 35-45-55 years for our Savior. But WE are "aging out" in great numbers (I retired from full-time pastoring in 2021 at age 73 after a stroke). At the same time, I see many of our fundamental Baptist schools closing and those that are still training our students have LOW numbers in the pastor, mission, youth pastor ministries majors.
All that... -
Other objections
(5) Priestly Confession and Absolution
(6) Infant Baptism
(7) Transubstantiation/ Real Presence
(8) Purgatory
(9) Catholic Doctrine of Justification
(10) Catholic View of Scripture and Tradition
The Catholic idea of Reconciliation stems from the Lord granting power to His Apostles to forgive and retain sin in His Name and Person. This Apostolic gift is bestowed by The Holy Spirit being breathed on them by the Lord.
This is the power of spiritual resurrection which they are to impart to...
