Confessing Orthodox Reformed Theology
The regulative principle is the guiding principle of Reformed worship. It governs how we come before our holy God. Without this principle, God could be approached as we please, doing essentially what the Israelites did at the end of Judges, In those days there was no king in Israel. Everyone did what was right in... Continue Reading →
Recently a new documentary has dropped entitled 1946. The premise of the movie is that the word homosexual is a mistranslation of the Greek word αρσενοκοιται in 1 Corinthians 6:9. Before the Revised Standard Version of 1946, no Bible used the word homosexual. Modern Bibles, according to them, have continued using this mistranslation and it... Continue Reading →
It’s time for the next installment of this ongoing series. For those who have been following it, I hope you have found it to be beneficial. For those who are new, this series has been a response to a Presbyterian brother’s own series titled Reasons for Infant Baptism. I recommend reading the previous articles (REASONS...

If you've been a Christian on the internet you've most certainly run into a Biblicist before (and perhaps you yourself are a Biblicist). It is often very frustrating to argue with them because they frequently don't allow theological categories (derived from scripture) to be brought in and want everything to be proven by single isolated...

This is a continuation of two previous articles (see REASONS 1-8 and REASONS 9-16) I wrote as a response to a Presbyterian brother’s so-called “Reasons for Infant Baptism.” As with before, I will continue to provide my response and refutation to each of his points. If you have been following my articles on this subject,... Continue Reading →
Muslims (and other Unitarians) frequently bring up John 17:3 as a polemic against orthodox Trinitarian Christianity. Because it has Jesus saying that the Father is the only true God, it must be denying that the Son is God they say. And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and...

Thanks to The Particular Baptist team who reviewed and edited this article. The discipline of the Lord can come in different methods. I think in two different ways, at least primarily: through suffering and through His Word. We must not think that the Christian life will be one only of ease and that we will... Continue Reading →
While Pedophilia is not yet culturally acceptable and it may even seem unthinkable that it ever would be, in America I find the trajectory we are in regarding sexual ethics to be extremely troubling. We’ve gone from an acceptance of no-fault divorce to a culture that has no issue with fornication, then to gay marriage,... Continue Reading →
