Heresy, Unorthodoxy & Cults - How far is too far?

Exegesis, anyone?

I'm a simple person, so I'll take the simpler route. I think the ESV study bible note was helpful to me when chewing on this one: "Even though believers will experience physical death (i.e., they ...

Baptism anyone? Do you think the Saints will go all the way?

I do think the Vikings have a good shot at it.

Paedo vs Credo: Main point of contention?

Not to this reformed baptist. Still means the same as you. Just different.

What? They didn't look so hot against the Falcons a few weeks back. What was that like 40ish to 20ish or something?

Of course, if you think of it... if the Saints go down in 'the big bowl' ..... crap! I was talking about baptism and I didn't even know it!!!

Common theme? They all DON'T have anything to do with baptism (except for the Christians). :-D

Not a lot of action going on this morning. Baptism (which is a very interesting issue to me) is being discussed... again. So I thought I would bring in something a little different that people may ...

Started this discussion. Last reply by Marv Nov 17.

Paedo vs Credo: Main point of contention?

Right. I was just blathering about the Eunich because I saw him come up in the discussion. Not really responding to your post.

Profile Information

Tell us about yourself
Hi my name is Jonathan, I have a wife (of almost 7 years) and four children, Titus (5), Britt (3), and Bronwyn (born July 08) and just found out about the one expected in Dec. 09. :) Good thing I like kids, ah?

I am the youngest of five and come from a conservative family in Georgia. I am probably a 3rd generation Christian (all my grandparents I know were great Christians and most of my great grandparents that I knew).

Raised in the Charismatic church until age 12 when my father helped to start a church plant to form a "body without the baggage" church: 1) Reformed teaching without OVER emphasizing the regulative principle or "Presbyterianism." 2) Charismatic understanding of gifts that God grants to certain people, without going overboard or "pushing" the spirit upon people but allowing God to work in our midst. 3) Evangelical outlook: a focus as a church that is not only on our own body but upon spreading His kingdom: Family, church, local area, nation, overseas missions.

I play guitar, and have led worship for about 10 years. I am now taking a break from that in hopes to put more time to biblical studies.

I am enrolled at Whitefiled Theological Seminary to further my study of the bible.

Graduate of the ALERT Academy, Texas, '02.

Oh my goodness - I was CRACKIN up when I read what you posted. But just in case, I'm going to clarify here (the problem with language, especially slang: always evolving).

banging - used to be used as a sexual term... you know the rest.
banging - now a term used to express either extreme pleasure in something (ex: that record is banging) or a term that strongly expresses verbally putting someone down (ex: I'm not banging on the pope). In both cases, the sentiments are extreme.

Song Review: Revive Us Again

Yeah so I've been asked several times by people what kind of music my church usually sings. So I have decided to start a little review blog of my favorite songs. As it doesn't do much good to tell people about a bunch of songs that they probably haven't heard (perhaps not in this way anyhow), I set out to put a few of them down on digital paper (recording). I'll update later with how pathetically that failed. But as for now, we'll start off with an oldie but goodie:

God is great, beer is good...

So, like I was on the way home from work yesterday and tuned the radio in to a local country station. Why? I never listen to country anymore. My uncle sings in country music so I grew up listening to good country, playing my guitar and singing wailing at the top of my lungs myself. I don't listen to the country music anymore, but I still enjoy wailing at the top of my lungs while pounding my guitar. :)

So as I was saying, I just happened to turn to the country station and… Continue
