First let me respond to the recent Richard Mouw article: The Orthodoxy of Rob Bell, Christian Post, March 20, 1011. He begins by saying that he agrees with Bell, and he does. But the fact that he agrees with Bell does NOT relieve the problems. He said, “Suppose … we go up to someone...
Have you been frustrated in your study of the Bible? Does it seem like you’re getting bits and pieces, but the big picture is just out of focus? Gary DeMar talks to filmmaker Darren Doane about an exciting new project designed to help people see the big picture, the over arching story of the...
Marietta, Ohio, November 17, 2010. This study of Colossians takes the doctrine of the Trinity seriously and applies it broadly.

Informal Christianity What it isn’t… It is not a church, but is the personal, internal, subjective faith that identifies church members as belonging to Jesus Christ. It is not formless, but conforms to the biblical reality described in Scripture. Its discipline is not strict and legalistic, but is free and gracious. Its principles are...
Increasing Sanctification Because the word sanctification means separated unto God or separated for the purposes and use of God, and because biblical wisdom opposes worldly wisdom (see Arsy Varsy) increased sanctification requires less entanglement with worldly ways and means.
