The foolery of the non-binary falsehood.

  What is the biblical response to people who are adamant in calling themselves "non-binary"? In Ephesians 4, we are told by Paul,  that no matter what we must "speak the truth in love" (4:15) and that is what we must do-- even if fundamentally disagree with the whole notion that being put forth by the revolutionist. What we get from this statement is the clear fact that we must always honour the truth; and we must always show love. And it is our hope that as we respond to this above question that this goal is fully accomplished.  Let us note that no matter what one believes; or what one may think regarding this issue-- the reality is much clearer:  there is no such thing non-binary; and no matter how one tries to deny this it ultimate comes down male and female-- in other words, there is only one option and that is everything is binary.  Now let us consider why people want escape this reality by denied the inevitable truth; it comes down to a number of fac...

The Charismatics

  Why do you believe that the Charismatics are in error? To answer this in a simple fashion:  most well known charismatic preacher and tele-evangelists  are guilty of majoring on the minors; and minoring on the majors.

Al they care for is promoting false hope and false ideology of the modern false teachers that made the Charismatic understanding so prevalent.   But to give you a more thorough understanding of the issues at hand-- I offer three important realities which will give us some basis of understanding. These teacher are: (1)   Self-centred. One example of this comes from one of  the teachers of what I call soft- charismatic or the prosperity gospel. He claim is that "he knows that the tips that he offers wil...

Romans 7 considered.

Who is Romans 7:14-25 about?      Surely it is about a believer; and any at any point in time.  When we come to a question such as this which is load with many assumptions and presuppositions which  have all come from a particular interpretation of the passage-- where by the identity of the person become the most central point of contention. Instead of starting with this kind of thought; perhaps a more logical and even better one would be to ask:  what is the passage about?  Then we can really get down to some of the more foundational issues that faces us when dealing with truly problematic statement. And it is if the most common interpretation is allowed to prevail.  The thing we must understand is this:  the identity of the person is not required at this stage as it will become apparent as we progress. The above question is answered very easily:  the Law and its convicting power when it is applied to a person who is not a Christian (vs...
