  • Roman Catholics Conflate Justification With Sanctification

    LET’S CLARIFY MERITIVE AND SALVING A response to Catholics who say they are saved by faith and that good works are not salvific and meritorious. Your denomination teaches that the practice of good works is necessary for salvation and that the Christian under the influence of grace deserves for himself and others the graces to…

  • The Biblical Gospel: Grounded in Justification

    The very essence of the gospel, of Jesus Christ, is justification by faith alone. We are saved by grace alone, through faith alone. None of our good works are meritorious. We are totally undeserving of salvation. God did not condition our faith on us accepting Christ in our future (God exists outside of time). No.…

  • The Gospel: Defined and Defended

    Background If you ask many people, who espouse Christ and go to church every week, just what is the gospel you will get various responses. Some will say being a “good person” is the gospel. Roman Catholics may say the gospel is that Jesus died for us and is present in a real way in…

  • The Supreme & Critical Importance of Sola Scriptura

    The more I carefully and closely examine Roman Catholic and Eastern Orthodox theologies, the more problems and outright error I find. These theologies were 100% man made. Reformed theology alone is derived directly and solely from Scripture. The Roman Catholics and Orthodox are the blind leading the blind, tossing and drifting alone on the sea…

  • Race Realism: A Discourse on the Current State of Race in America

    Shakespeare was the greatest writer of all time, besides the Bible – which was written under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit.

  • Sola Scriptura: Defined and Defended – A Study in Authority Structures

    Background Sola Scriptura, Latin for Scripture Alone, is part of the 5 Solas of the Protestant Reformation. They are a cornerstone of Reformed theology. Sola Scriptura simply means that Scripture is our highest authority in matters of faith and morals. As this statement implies, there are other lesser authorities, but they are always subordinate to…

  • My Favorite Gospel Songs by Elvis Presley

    When you hear Elvis sing gospel music, his love for Jesus is quite apparent. He sang gospel from his heart, with so much passion and conviction! No one can come close to him in gospel music, except for Mahalia Jackson. Elvis recorded dozens of gospel songs, in this post are 7 of my favorites! I…

  • The Glorious Protestant Reformation: Some Thoughts on Reformation Day

    On this day, October 31st, in the year of our Lord, 1517, an Augustinian friar (monk) in the Roman Catholic church, Martin Luther (1483-1546), who was also a theologian, priest, and a professor at the University at Wittenberg, nailed his 95 theses, which were theological problems he saw with Catholic theology as well as practices…
