Great Sermon! James, you are the greatest debater around and I especially enjoyed your debate with Marcus Borg because my aunt and uncle are so-called ministers in the United Church (chirps, I call them) recently tried to convert me to liberalism with Borg's books, but I quoted from your debate with him, in which you asked him, w"what happened to the body of Jesus after he died" to which he answered, " well it probably just decayed in a grave somewhere." So Iused that to justify not finding anything of any value in his books. I have also been going to a Baptist church in which the pastor calls himself a 1 point Calvinist. I can take going there anymore though because he called you a racist, to which I said, " no he is not. He is against reverse-racism." Antinomianism is promoted in that church although to the pastors credit he doesn't agree with it. But there is this "through the grape vine" gossip in the church that teaches that Calvinism is hyper-Calvinism and that has finally caused me to look elsewhere to find fellowship. |
