I hope you will watch. You will understand why I too stand with Israel.

The majority of professing Christians are Biblically illiterate. Ask them basic theological questions, and they can’t answer them correctly. They couldn’t tell you what the Bible has to say about some of the most pressing moral issues of our day. The Church simply does not have time for frivolous Toy Story-themed sermons that fail to explain Scripture and preach the gospel. The main purpose of the church is to equip the saints for the work of ministry, not to make church services so distractingly entertaining that non-Christians will attend to see a free show. While outreach and evangelism matter, sensitivity to the seeker at the expense of Biblical exegesis is sinful and counterproductive. Sermons can be dynamic. The music can be beautiful. The sanctuary can be aesthetically pleasing. Creativity can be used for the glory of God. But putting Christ in the background just to fill seats will never work. His aroma is sweet enough. His gospel is powerful enough. His spirit is persuasive enough. The same cross that repelled the proud and compelled the humble 2,000 years ago still does so today. “And he gave the apostles, the prophets, the evangelists, the shepherds and teachers, to equip the saints for the work of ministry, for building up the body of Christ, until we all attain to the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God, *to mature manhood,* to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ, so that *we may no longer be children,* tossed to and fro by the waves and carried about by every wind of doctrine, by human cunning, by craftiness in deceitful schemes. Rather, speaking Rather, speaking the truth in love, we are to *grow up in every way* into him who is the head, into Christ,” Eph. 4:11-14

The known properties of carbon dioxide means that extra CO2 does not/can not warm the air around us, even if it doubles. This is not opinion, it 's scientific fact. More CO2 does not lead to a rise in temperatures, because of the saturation point of CO2. Science talks, BS walks.

As a Bible believing, adoptive father of two children who were spared through the ministry of a pregnancy center… I cannot begin to fathom an SBC employee saying they would have preferred taking 50 more years to end this horror.

Ladies, a suggestion in light of the potential SCOTUS ruling: In protest, you should refuse to have sex with men unless they are willing to enter some kind of contractual agreement with you to be faithful and provide for you and your children for life. That'll show 'em.

John MacArthur has accomplished more for religious liberty in 2 weeks than the @ERLC has accomplished since it was founded. Let that sink in for a minute.

Who would have guessed the ERLC would join in supporting bans on singing in worship? Well, I would have, actually. Too bad the SBC spends millions on this useless appendage. erlc.com/resource-library/ar…

This is the opposite of the Gospel.
You already are enough.
