Confessing Orthodox Reformed Theology
Recently, I was discussing abortion with an acquaintance. While we both agree that abortion needs to be outlawed, there was still plenty of room for disagreement. This is because of a statement that was made: Woe to you, pastors, seminary professors, hypocrites! For you attend church every Sunday, Bible study twice a week and you... Continue Reading →

Recently, William Lane Craig and James White had a debate/discussion on Molinism vs Calvinism in regards to the problem of evil (which can be found here). Although there were many things said, one in particular piqued my interest: Craig's response to the grounding objection, a standard Reformed critique of Molinism that White presented.

But I have no irrational or bigoted fear of homosexuals, and there are many others that get labeled that way who do not appear to be irrationally... Continue Reading →
This may sound like a rather obvious question but you would be surprised how many people get it all wrong. The dictionary defines faith as belief that is not based on proof. Where does this faith come from? Is it a product of a decision we make or is it something more? Thankfully, the bible... Continue Reading →
