The whole counsel of God, that is, the entire content of Scripture must inform our view of the God of the Bible. In his letter to Timothy, Paul affirmed that “All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: That the man of God may be perfect, throughly...
This book develops the Biblical teaching of the Holy Trinity. God is eternally Triune. There is no eternal generation of the Son or eternal procession of the Spirit as they are eternally God. Historical theology and some insights from various thinkers help yield a robust and consistent vision and portrait of the Triune God.
The epistle to the Colossians will always be a powerhouse of wisdom refuting heresy. The letter is brief, but oh, so dynamic. Here, Paul promotes a high view of Jesus Christ as Preeminent in salvation, the Church, and the entire Cosmos. Paul challenges believers to remain faithful. This is not about rule-keeping or following tradition....
In modern evangelicalism, a concept dominates as the axiomatic given in any discussion concerning salvation: men's free will. For so many Christians, this is an intuitive matter, and even though it has never dawned on them that if that were truly the case, it would have serious ramifications for God, they persist in assuming this notion. We will look at these implicit, unavoidable effects on the deity later.
The trouble is that few Christians have taken the time and effort to improve their...
The elect are stated to be holy and beloved in Colossians 3:12. This is significant. They are saved as set apart for God and liberated as loved by God. The common claim that all men without exception are objects of God's love is problematic. It would evacuate this verse of its specific meaning and reassurance of God's sovereign choice in salvation manifested in the saints being set apart and beloved. What is the point of telling the Colossian Christians that they are beloved if all men are...
How can the evangelical church be so enamored of resources and yet be so impoverished?
Much of the problem is that people are not reading the right books. Even ministers who know better than most, are guilty of reading only popular and accessible works. Books that only consist of ready-made fodder for their sermons. Countless times have I heard a minister see some novel idea in a book and share with his ministry support group, "That'll Preach?"
Well, I have not only heard such nonsense, but I...
