The movie “Son of God” is getting a lot of attention, with some more reviews explaining how unbiblical it is. The only people who like it are those who claim to have gotten all emotional about it; they let their emotions determine the validity of it rather than comparing it to Scripture.
Reviews to consider are at Steak and a Bible, Answers in Genesis, and Marsha West.
Bill Gothard has resigned his position at IBLP. Now if only the whole system would collapse!
A false teacher to beware of, who I never heard of before, is David Benner.
Another episode from the Cripplegate’s series about tongues.
Janis Hutchinson has another part of her series on the Trinity posted.
The review of Michael Brown’s “Authentic Fire” book continues.
The Berean Call radio had a two part series on the Hebrew Roots Movement, and the transcripts are available here and here.
There are those who claim that Jesus would have no problem with photographing or otherwise providing services for a same-sex fake wedding ceremony. Good refutation article here.
Steve Bricker has an interesting article about the problem with repetitious choruses in worship.
More apostasy in the United Methodist Church - a bishop refuses to bring church discipline against a minister who officiated at a same-sex fake wedding.
John MacArthur had a thought-provoking article about recognizing and dealing with wolves who would endanger the flock. He ends with this statement:
Far from engaging or accommodating false teachers, the clear duty of every church leader is to guard the truth from the deadly, corrupting influence of heretics, liars, and charlatans. A godly shepherd faithfully protects the sheep; he doesn’t dance with the wolves.
Finally, along that line of what the church’s identity should be, a bit of controversy has arisen over a new book by Ken Wilson, Letter to My Congregation. Look at what he says about what the church’s mission is, and his idea of accommodating unrepentant sinners (specifically homosexuals). Then look at my article about the purpose of the church. It is apparent that Wilson just doesn’t get it.
