The book of Acts presents an informative view of the Church, as well as an informative view of the way in which the Church read the Scriptures. As they saw that all things spoke of Jesus Christ, they also went on to apply those things to themselves. They lived the life of Christ. This can [...]

How TR ultras promote Roman Catholicism in their urge to purge
Posted in Mark Horne, New Perspective on Paul, Reformed Tradition, Roman Catholic on April 22, 2008 | 4 Comments »
The machine works mechanically and it is flawless. Slander/libel a group of Presbyterian ministers as “Romanist” because robes and James 2 are no worse than praying to Mary or relying on purgatory to pay for unconfessed sins. Drive off anyone who disagrees Of that number, there may be a tiny minority of lost souls who [...]

Posted in Angie Brennan, Reformed Tradition on April 21, 2008 | 3 Comments »
From: “Squirmtrap” Squirmtrap@wormneverdies.org To: “Bitternell” Bitternell@wormneverdies.org Date: April 21, 2008 Subject: Re: Calvinist Question My Dear Bitternell, I note with some amusement your alarm over your patient’s new-found friendship with a young, fervent servant of the Enemy–a Calvinist, I believe he calls himself.

The particular ‘marker sin’ of Empire is false intermarriage, which signifies pluralism and syncretism. Empires by definition are “cosmopolitan” dominated by cities, high culture, many cultures, and many [...]

The first section of the essay points to numerous linguistic and conceptual parallels between Jonah (“Dove”) and the Noah narrative: Destruction of the earth, including animals; but in this case, the [...]
Music and Hermeneutics
Posted in Biblical Theology, James Jordan, Liturgy on April 5, 2008 | 15 Comments »
Biblical Horizons 89, November, 1996 From time to time, when I’ve lectured on how to read the Bible, I’ve used art-music as one example thereof.
