  • Ecumenism: Common Ground or Compromise of Doctrine?

    It’s no secret that the Christian visible church is fractured (the institutional Protestant, Catholic, and Orthodox churches), yet in another sense we have unity in the true Church which is the invisible Body of Christ. It’s made up of the regenerate (God’s Elect) in all the various institutional churches and denominations. Can we achieve common…

  • A Critical Examination of Sacramental Theology: Another Gospel?

    The Roman Catholic and Eastern Orthodox Churches both have 7 sacraments, they are roughly the same. The 7 Sacraments celebrated in the Catholic Church are Baptism, Confirmation, Eucharist, Penance and Reconciliation, Anointing of the Sick, Holy Orders, and Matrimony. Contemporary Orthodox catechisms and textbooks all affirm that the church recognizes seven mystēria (“sacraments”): baptism, chrismation, Communion, holy…

  • Union With Christ: On the Errors of Infant Baptism & Baptismal Regeneration

    Baptism Deconstructed I think many Christians, who fall prey to the theological errors of infant baptism (paedobaptism), and the concept of so-called covenant children, are confused about what the covenant is for believers, and how one enters it.

I will argue in this article that in fact Satan is master of the earth until Jesus returns at His Second Coming to claim the Davidic Throne and rule from Jerusalem for a millennium (1,000 years). Context Consider the following Scriptures: When Jesus was in…

  • God’s children: Natural Birth or New Birth

    We’ve all heard the popular assertion, “We are all God’s children.”, but is this slogan really a true statement of fact according to Scripture? In this article we shall examine that question and see what Scripture has to say about it. If we carefully study and exegete Scripture relating to this topic, four things stand…

  • A Response to Reformed Presbyterians: Semper Reformanda

    Background The sine qua non of Reformed theology is soteriology. Covenant theology and certain types of eschatology are not essential core distinctives. Sadly, the majority of Reformed Presbyterians seem to be so bigoted and locked into their infantile theological cliques that they look down upon and refuse to recognize believers such as Reformed Baptists as…
