I disagree. The salient message is that Jesus is Lord. That implies all that you said plus more. That is why it is the confession of the mouth in Rom. 10. And, if what you say is true, then Jesus didn't preach the gospel as you defined it. His gospel was about God's rule and repentance...

Thanks, dude! Our baby was 3 months old yesterday. Our story of finally getting pregnant: http://timandlizdecker.blogspot.com/2012/08/miscarriage-adoption-and-pregnancy.html

What translation was that??? 2Co 11:3 But I am afraid that as the serpent deceived Eve by his cunning, your thoughts will be led astray from a sincere and pure devotion to Christ. ESV And if the religion of Jesus was so simple, why would God need to quicken hearts to accept its truths...

I do not advocate a simple gospel. If it was simple, it wouldn't be foolish or scandalous. If it were simple, it wouldn't be the difficult path. If it were simple, it wouldn't be hard to enter the kingdom. These are all statements about the gospel. Not to mention that the gospel entails...

Holy crap... beer is meant to get people drunk???!!!???!!! Then why don't they raise the alcohol content past 5%? I've heard some doosies on this board but that one...

This is not LS. This is not complicating anything other than the gospel which is complex. Saved by grace... yes thru faith alone (which implies repentance)... yes then we start to get... well... tell me where Jesus ever allowed any of his disciples to "start putting more and more of our...

That may be... although I reject the concept "age of accountability" as if that has any bearing on God's eternal decree of election.

Wise answer. Thank you for this. (can you tell I am a new parent?)

Encouraging for me who has a BA, MA from a TRACS accredited school. (why I need this ThM from SEBTS so badly)

I find the gospel finds its most complete expression in the fewest words with "Jesus is Lord." I believe that repentance and a life completely surrendered to Jesus is what it means to believe or have faith or put your trust in... My question then is, for those of us who believe in what is...

Oops... not much help there. I am a NT guy. When you take a NT class, I can give you a better perspective. I do know Dr. Little (philosophy). He's really good.

Very nice. What classes are you taking then?

PTL... I'm almost finished w/ my ThM from SEBTS. I won't see you in August, but I do have a class this June. Let me know if you want a prof recommendation for some classes.

fail!!!!!!!

Actually, Sailhamer would say that that Bible doesn't say one way or the other. It may have happened that way or not. He would also say that determining such is not the point of Genesis. So I cannot answer the OP definitively since my view is more of a Biblical agnostic understanding (the...

Since my view is not represented... I'll just post a link: http://www.desiringgod.org/resource-library/articles/science-the-bible-and-the-promised-land

What would happen to Christianity in America if we stopped believing that God has chosen America in some special way?? We have turned patriotism into civil religion. Some people put patriotism on par w/ orthodoxy. I find so much error in that and so much inconsistency to God's mission to the...

His site wasn't new... just run by an amateur. I wonder if he forgot to pay the bills.
