SBCToday – Calvinism vs Pelagianism
This post is intended to address some comments by Doug Sayers on the sbctoday.com blog. I’m posting this here because the owner of the sbctoday blog has an aversion to honest and robust debate from appearing on his blog.

Cultic KJVOism, then a Deep Dive into Theological Method
Went more than 90 minutes today starting off with a warning about the abusive forms of cultic KJVOism out there, looking at the Ruckman-esque behavior of one Cody Zorn, a KJV pastor down in Georgia. Then we did a major shift in direction and did a full hour lecture on theology, Scripture, and how we define our faith. We eventually
Calvin and Sadoleto, Reformed Biblicism
Started off telling the story of Calvin and Sadoleto, one of the most important interactions in the early period of the Reformation, and then using Calvin’s response as a spring-board to look at a number of other relevant issues today once again related to sola scriptura, tradition, etc. 90 minutes. We also live-streamed for the first time on Twitch, which,

After all the “Ack, Real Audio?!” complaints and a long down-time as far as posting sermons and Bible studies from the Phoenix Reformed Baptist Church, I have gotten us set up on Sermon Audio. Here is a lesson from John 10 from last week, and my fellow elder’s sermon from Romans 1 as well.

Upcoming Debates, Tom Buck and Sam Allberry, Steven Anderson and Textual Traditionalism
Started off with some exciting news about possible upcoming major debates and pointing folks to the Travel Fund as the most important way of helping us to make this happen. Then we looked at the fall out from the posting of the four-part series of articles by Pastor Tom Buck interacting with materials found on the Living Out website before
The Pope and the Lord’s Prayer, Slander & Keyboard, SJC, Zachariades & God’s Justice
Started off looking at Pope Francis and “lead us not into temptation.” Then had to look at Slander and Keyboard (the group formerly known as Pulpit & Pen, sort of like the artist formerly known as Prince…or Purple something, I could never figure that part out) as well as some wild eyed “bigotry in the name of Christianity is fine
The Sudden Clarity of Black Racism (Louis Farrakhan), Then a Response to Jonathan McLatchie on the Noetic Effect of Sin
Started off looking at a clip showing sincere, clear, plain black supremacy straight from the teachings of Louis Farrakhan, a very well known racist who believes white people are demons. Eventually we transitioned into providing an exegetical response to Jonathan McLatchie’s assertion that there really is no “noetic effect of sin,” a claim he lays out in this article. The
