New Class on Soteriology
The attachment contains the Student Notebook for our Class on Soteriology (Doctrine of Salvation). Who: Everyone is invited to ourTheology Bible Fellowship – men and women! Please Invite your family and friends and let’s grow in knowing Christ by doing theology Irenically (peaceably) and correctly in good dialog with each other!

Your Gospel is Too Small
Here is a great quote from over at “The Gospel Driven Church” about the fullness of the Gospel and the way we tend to truncate it. Your Gospel is Too Small: “ A gospel which is only about the moment of conversion but does not extend to every moment of life in Christ is too small. A gospel that gets your sins forgiven but offers no power for transformation is too small. A gospel that isolates one of the benefits of union with Christ and ignores all the others is too small. A gospel that must be measured by your

The Consequence Of Fast Food Theology – A Flat Bible
Context Determines Meaning In February had a very disturbing conversation with 3 Mormon elders who would not look at the context of a particular passage of Scripture. Instead they wanted to standardize all definitions of the word “one” based on a traditional interpretation of John 17:20-21. This conversation occurred after a talk on Mormonism at our Wednesday Night Bible Study. These Mormon elders came ready for debate and refused to listen to deal with hermeneutical issues (the science of biblical interpretation) first, so that we could agree on how we go about explaining and interpreting a certain portions of scripture. American Christianity tends to want things made

Recovery of the Gospel in the life of Dr. D. James Kennedy
I remember Dr. D. James Kennedy as pastor/theologian who – unlike many Christian pastors (and Christians) – was not influenced today’s humanism that makes one preach a truncated gospel. A truncated gospel proclaims a lowest common denominator belief system (it asks: “what is the least doctrine I can believe in and commit to and still be considered a Christian.”). I am grateful for Dr. Kennedy evangelistic passion that compeled him to battled this thin, reduced, and truncated Gospel because: I am convicted that Today’s (Truncated) Gospel minimizes the application of the gospel theology of salvation to justification (or just having our sins forgiven and/or being declared righteous) instead
AlbertMohler.com – The Osteen Moment — Your Own Moment Will Come Soon Enough
AlbertMohler.com – The Osteen Moment — Your Own Moment Will Come Soon Enough: Mohler: “Joel Osteen found himself forced to answer a question that every Christian — and certainly every Christian leader — will be forced to answer. When that moment comes, and come it will, those who express confidence in the Bible’s teaching that homosexuality is a sin will find themselves facing the same shock and censure from the very same quarters.What happened last night on Piers Morgan Tonight is a sign of things to come. After this interview, Joel Osteen will never be seen in the same way
