RESOLVED. If I believe that God has spoken with clarity and finality in his word, I should act like it in my doctrine and in my practice.
In short, I should reflect my confidence in the God who has spoken in every area of my life.
Burning Straw men in effigy is a favorite pastime for many on here.
But no, this is nothing but a silly caricature.
I expect better from our Presbyterian brethren.
I read this as: while being hunted and persecuted by dragons!?!
My brain was trying to figure out why I’d never read that in any church history books! 🤣🤣
Another one that fits this “same dish but worlds apart” thing is Paella.
It’s crazy how everyone thinks (in America anyway) it’s like $200 dollars of seafood, when it’s traditionally rabbit, snails, whatever you have, just humble peasant food
Probably a bunch more we could name
Made gumbo tonight.
In my experience there’s often two very different versions of a dish, bougie or backwoods.
This is definitely the latter.
Homemade Tasso and smoked turkey necks.
I’m from as far from the bayou as one can be, but I like to think I’d fit in down there.
Exactly
I've been listening to some dispensational podcasts as of late, and I keep bumping up against a problem. 🚦
According to a lot of dispensationalists, an interpreter holds to dispensationalism or "replacement theology."
I'm a covenant theologian but I don't hold to replacement theology. The church doesn't replace Israel.
The church is the CONTINUATION of true Israel in Christ. NT believers are joined to OT believers as the covenant community. That's not replacement.
I have a certain sympathy for what this is trying to push back against.
There is a large segment of evangelicalism that commit hyper red-letterism, and in practice deny the Trinity
Unfortunately, this post makes the same basic error.
Last night my daughter discovered a northern flicker that the cats injured,
but didn’t kill.
She immediately saw a rescue project, so it’s now in a rabbit cage and we’re picking up supplies at the feed store.
My friend flicker.
It is remarkable to so how faith triumphs (or non faith fails) in a scene involving all the intrigue of international politics
The faith of the kings of Judah in the covenant promises determines the course of nations more than the strength of the mightiest monarchs

This entire episode has been very revealing.
One wonders, would this be the response if it was a,
Black man, citizen?
White man, not a citizen?
I suppose I’m the same sort of “moderate”
I don’t have a problem with a nation deciding who can go there, or stay there.
But it’s also very possible to believe you’ve done everything correctly,
yet there be a clerical error outside your control.
Foaming at the mouth for sure.
Things Christians need to understand about this site,
1. It’s not real life
A great amount of fake and gay, including by those who decry such things
2. Crying “slander” is meaningless.
Often it means: you quoted me & I’m mad
3. Unequal ⚖️
Enemies get the 🪓 no matter the facts
The highest irony today is the that same guys loudly proclaiming Samuel Sey isn’t a Christian because they disagree with him about obviously secondary issues
Are the same dudes that claim all you gotta do is “affirm the Apostles creed and you’re a Christian”
Equal scales maybe?
I took my family up to 🇨🇦 last week for vacation.
I have absolutely no problem with a country deciding who can/cannot visit or live there.
But the notion of suddenly finding out there’s a problem when they arrest you, truly nightmare stuff.
I don’t wish that on anyone.
Goldie-Chud and the three reformed pastors,
This one’s too skinny,
This one’s too fat,
But this one has just the right curated image!
This one’s too intellectual,
This one enjoys sports too much,
But this one’s favorite pastime is internet insults!
What is an “effeminate hobby”
I really want to know.
Maybe we should have a church council to declare which hobbies are allowed for Christian men, and which ones aren’t.
