I didn't see this in the writing of your OP so I was wondering why Ascetic X would bring this up? I would consider this "Two Seed in the Spirit" doctrine as being quite heretical on several points of which I could see from a cursory overview.

My understanding is that a DMin is more of a Professional degree than Academic. DMin programs typically require a certain level of ministry experience and the curriculum is relevant to this experience. Seems the path to take if your primary focus is on pastoral ministry. Of course a PhD is the...

Forgive me for butting into your thread!:rolleyes:

These were my thoughts. All sorts of positions of leadership for women in ministry settings; the only thing the SBC (or I) take exception to are women being in ordained, pastoral positions. Aside from this, they can sit on whatever advisory board they desire. They can and do teach in seminaries...

My understanding is that AW Pink had little to no formal theological training.

No argument from me. I just want everything printed in a nice, presentable, and readable format that may be helpful to others. My immediate distribution will be to family members (including my mother, of course;)), the members of our church, and to other churches where I may be teaching the...

Yes, it is representative of what is in the heart of a man. I also beleive it could be a demonic attack. I recall shortly after being saved, I was 18 at the time and had a dream that I was in a heavy metal rock band ripping it up on a stage and the lyrics was basically shouting out "Hail...

I believe that once upon a time, honorary doctorates were conferred upon someone to recognize their contribution to a particular field of expertise. An honorary Doctorate from Oxford is especially prestigious. Seems that institutions such as Hyles-Anderson College have made a mockery out of...

By God's grace, this is where I am as well. If they think not, it is their problem.

I started writing it some years ago from this standpoint. Distinguishing historic fundamentalism from what it has become today which I have coined "Hysterical Funny-Mental-ism." At the time, I had somewhat of a bone to pick and it showed in the tone of my writing. Most of the Bible references...

Thanks for the feedback. I am likely going to go the "Self-Publishing" route for now. I expect that immediate distribution will be primarily my church and other churches and ministries I may be working with. I will probably put it on Amazon as well and see if this gets me any traction plus it...

In regards to the OP with the YouTube video, it seems to be "Big Business" these days how one is able to make a few revisions to material that is in the public domain and are then able to license it and make a boatload of money with very little effort on their part. I am seeing this especially...

You are speaking of two completely different things here! I am not sure you have caught it and perhaps it is not what you have intended? God ALONE dwells outside the realm of space and time existing in the "Eternal Present." Therefore Jesus gets to say things like "Before Abraham was, I am...

This is where I admit to having somewhat of an agenda here. I have about 20 years experience among IFB congregations and have seen numerous instances where a pastor or other sort of leader falls into immorality and it seems as if their is no safety net nor is there a means for any real...

I don't know about not electing ANY conservative politician but at least not one that comes across as being a complete idiot! There was a Faithful Word Baptist Church "affiliate" in the South Houston area for a while. About ten miles up the road from me off Alt-90 but it has recently folded up...
