Daniel’s Seventy Weeks and the New Exodus by Dr. Peter J. Gentry (SWBTS)

 Read: Daniel’s Seventy Weeks and the New Exodus by Dr. Peter J. Gentry (SWBTS) This is an excellent exegesis and exposition (by Dr. Peter J. Gentry) of Daniel 9 concerning Daniel’s prayer and the 70 weeks revelation that is given to Daniel by God as the time and the anointed one (Jesus Christ) put an end to our need for sacrifices in the middle of the 70th week by dying on the cross for sinners. There is no pause between the 69th week and the 70th week since midway in the 70th week is predicted the death of Christ to put

It Is The Gospel That Unifies the Church Not Our Theologies

No Fear of God

Here is a good article on thinking about our freedoms on the 4th of July.  Jerry Rankin expresses in his following blog well my concerns about our country.  It seems that the church is not as aggressive in its desire for holiness and evangelism as it use to be.  Maybe we are separating the gospel from our national pride.  Maybe we don’t celebrate this day of independence in our churches as we should – both physically and spiritually. No Fear of God by Jerry Rankin Yesterday was an emotional worship experience in the church I attended. Being July 4th, everyone had on red,

We preach orally, but tend to prepare in literary forms (manuscript, indented outlines, etc.) I mentioned the issue of transitions – very different animals in spoken than in written communication. I mentioned the need to indicate sense of progress, or purpose of illustration. But wait, isn’t there a shortcut to circumvent this whole issue? The Potential Powerpoint Shortcut – Wouldn’t it be better to just project your notes so they can
