Two articles very much worth the read:
Is Truth Really Plural? Postmodernism in Full Flower
A Most Ingenious Paradox
Both men are Southern Baptists and both come from a faction of the SBC that is in opposition soteriologically to the vast majority. When it comes to the inerrancy of Scripture one of the things that must be discovered [...]

James White of Alpha and Omega Ministries writes at
Reformed Baptist Fellowship:
Jesus explains that He has come for a purpose, and it is not what you normally hear about during the 14th verse of Just As I Am. He has come for judgment, and the judgment involves sight.
John has been working over this point from the [...]

Speaking paraphrastically is often done in an attempt to clearify. Unfortunately, what happens many times is that the object of discourse becomes an afocussed target. Often used by magicians, brightlights and flashes cause vision problems making presdigitation easier. Rather than the lighting making the object clearer, it actually blurs.

After this, Jesus, knowing that all was now finished, said (to fulfill the Scripture), “I thirst.” A jar full of sour wine stood there, so they put a sponge full of the sour wine on a hyssop branch and held it to his mouth. When Jesus had received the sour wine, [...]

From the 17th Article of the Canons:
The Salvation of the Infants of Believers
Since we must make judgments about God’s will from his Word, which testifies that the children of believers are holy, not by nature but by virtue of the gracious covenant in which they together with their parents are included, godly parents ought not [...]

Today on the Dividing Line: A Review and Refutation of Middle Knowledge
In one form or another, as a related kind, this heresy of progressive knowledge in God is the main course of most Southern Baptists’ soteriology. But they should not feel alone, it is the most common kind of error found and held to by [...]

Alan Kurschner at Alpha and Omega Ministries gives a nice break down of this controversial verse.
There is no wiggle room for the Arminian claim that the sins of everyone without distinction has been propitiated in Christ. At best, when the Arminian proposes such, he becomes an inconsistent universalist.
Let me direct you to another piece that [...]

Calvin’s view of preaching, grounded in his view of Scripture, is what has placed the Western world so deeply in debt to John Calvin.
Calvin had a very high view of the Scripture (Institutes 4, 8). “The only authorized way of teaching in the church is by the prescription and standard of his word.” In [...]

Continuing from “That trio of theological relatives—Pelagianism, Arminianism, and Romanism,” here is more that must be argued about words if we are to keep our conversation with sound words of instruction.
Is the word Justification always used in a forensic sense in this argument, or also in a moral and physical? The former we affirm, the [...]
