Review: So far we have covered the biblical definition of the image of God and the soul. From this, we have seen that the rational ability of the mind (soul, image) of Man is innate. Man is hardwir...

The Hermeneutic of the "Experts"
OK I will keep this very brief - just a quick example.
The Partial Preterist Experts hermeneutic would dictate that I hold the time-texts as AD 70 and this dictates to me that 2 Peter is fulfilled already according to that hermeneutic.
Ken Gentry - PARTIAL PRETERIST:

A) Recently I was accused of possibly being a Docetist. Rather than even acknowledge this lie with a blog entry addressing the entire thing, just know that I am not even close to a Docetist. It is a total misrepresentation. Basically if you want more answers, feel free to ask me. Or better yet, just look up pretty much any James White article / blog - on the Trinity / God / Jesus' nature - (basically I agree with just about everything he would say).

Some Quotes About John Calvin
“It would hardly be too much to say that for the latter part of his lifetime and a century after his death John Calvin was the most influential man in the world, in the sense that his ideas were making more history than those of anyone else during that period. Calvin’s theology produced the Puritans in England, the Huguenots in France, the ‘Beggars’ in Holland, the Covenanters in Scotland, and the Pilgrim Fathers of New England, and was more or less directly resp… Continue

October 31 & The Reformation: The trick of works vs the treats of grace - Rev. John Marshall Crowe, B.A., M.Div., D.Min., APC
A shy man fully decked out in a full academic costume completed his Halloween preparations early on October 31st. He went out on this day of trick or treating dressed like a seminary professor.
Oddly enough, he walked across the street and stood in front of a door-the only one he went to. That door was one most would never knock upon on the day before All Hallows Day. When he knocked on the door, it sounded like a hammer.

Does the Gospel of John teach saved by free-will?
Clearly no one is "born again" by free-will. We find this in the 1st chapter.
John 1
13 who were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.
John 3 often cited as the free-will verse. But look at the surrounding verses context. First of all it is about being born again. Notice above and below - it talks about that not being a decision by man. Also - the context is Jesus speaking to a Jew that… Continue

The Law after AD30
Recently a good question was asked: Does the scripture, explicitly say that the 12 disciples or Paul sacrificed? I am not talking about any one else but these 13 men.
I think that the book of Acts answers this quite well. At the time of Acts (after the cross) they were claiming to be doing nothing against the law of Moses.
Paul saying Gentiles should still keep part of the law but not be burdened by it entirely, since it is passing. Implying that Jews still kept it.… Continue

Acts 13 compared to Romans 10, 11, 13 and Hebrews 9, 10
I am re-reading Acts for fun - and I am finding many connections to what we find in later Epistles. It is just fun to see all of these connections. Here is one I really like.
Gentiles make Jews jealous / salvation / ends of the earth.
Acts 13
44On the next Sabbath almost the whole city gathered to hear the word of the Lord. 45When the Jews saw the crowds, they were filled with jealousy and talked abusively against what Paul was saying. 46Then Pau… Continue
