Over the next few weeks, I hope to explore and expand the Doctrine of Human Suffering to provide at least a basic understanding of it. Section II: Definitions, Study series, and Theology As always, I sincerely desire that this and every … More “Human Suffering and God” – Part III – 09/23/2026
In the Epistle to the Hebrews, the doctrine of suffering is put in this way: “All chastening seems for the present to be not joyous–but grievous: yet afterward it yields peaceable fruit unto them that have been exercised thereby, even the fruit of righteousness.” Lifes Byways and Waysides – Grace Gems! – by J.R. Miller, … More “Human Suffering and God” – Part II- Sunday Sermon Series – 09/20/2026
This is a L O N G post, and yt it contains no information anywhere near enough to touch on even the borders of this subject. My prayer is that I have written and referenced enough for you to become a Berean and dig deeply into the subject on your own. COMMENT Before starting any … More Study and Sermon- “What Is Saving Faith in Jesus Christ?” – 08/30/2026
COMMENTS I found this article interesting on two counts. First was the quality of the content, and second was the source. You see, Reformation 21 is a part of the Alliance of Confessing Evangelicals. So is the author advocating or predicting the total collapse of evangelicalism?

The twisted understanding of this comes mostly from the fact that, for the past 48 years, readers … More Sunday Sermon Series – “Common Salvation” – 04/12/2026

I have passed by this church many times. One of the things I love about this building is that no one can mistake it for a strip mall (referring here to newly constructed facilities) or a self-storage facility. It boldly proclaims we are a church. Last week, we looked at Christians and Politics. Should “Christians” … More Devotion – “Large and in Charge” – 03/09/2026
I have a medical background, and the first time I heard mention of a HYPOstatic Union, my brain immediately thought of injections. Of course, this is actually the theological term for the dual nature of Christ, God and Man. This is one of the most glossed-over and most important doctrines of Christianity. I say “glossed … More Study – “Hypostatic Union” – 02/09/2026
Today, we will take an in-depth look at what is commonly called the Lord’s Prayer, or for those who insist, the Model Prayer. Our study will be from the perspective of Thomas Boston, a late 17th- and early 18th-century Puritan stalwart. Boston, and for that matter, every Putitan that I have read, never had an … More Study – Thomas Boston “Adoption and Prayer” – 02/04/2026
