Shamounian Mistakes

In an exchange with Sam Shamoun in his comment section. Sam tries to debunk Calvinism and he fails to do so. I informed him that he missed the point in his video attacking Calvinism. I explain that the reformed perspective on Colossians 1:20 is directed towards an eschatological interpretation and that he is inconsistent in his interpretation. I argued he ended up creating difficulty between the members of the Trinity. That reformed Christians maintain that faith is the means by which we are united with Christ and is not irrelevant. He deleted my original statements and I will try to … Continue reading Shamounian Mistakes

Adam as Priest?

In Genesis 2:15-3:24, we have God establishing a covenant of Works with Adam. The imagery of Genesis 1-3 in the ANE pictured a cosmic temple. This motif is to foreshadow the tabernacle. This motif leaves us with Adam as a high priest in God’s cosmic temple representing all of mankind before the LORD of host. As commentators see the language picturing the work a Priest does in the OT. If we keep Romans 5:12-19 and Genesis 3 in mind, then it seems more than likely that Adam is our representative “Priest” before God in the Garden. The fall of Adam … Continue reading Adam as Priest?

A Word to Baldie and the others who have a problem with us…

To Whom it may concern, It is to my understanding that you do not approve of how the Council of Google Plus operates on our Hangouts. It appears that you think you are the “Police” of the internet. Do you have a license for this kind of Authority? Who dubbed you and the others to set the standard of how we run our show? Let me make one thing clear. We run our show and hangouts the way we want to. We make up our own rules and standards. If you don’t agree with our rules, then don’t play on … Continue reading A Word to Baldie and the others who have a problem with us…

Freewill Scapegoat

Mike Manea responded to the quote of Walter Martin. Here is my response: If I may, can I suggest that the article might be missing the forest because of the trees regarding the Investigative Judgment? Would it be possible to set aside for a second what E.G. White says, the exegesis of Hebrews or the attempt to save face after the disappointment of 1844? Maybe, just maybe, this Adventist idea has something to contribute to Christian theology. You may suggest whatever you want, but it will require more than suggestion to convince me. The issue is that her writings are … Continue reading Freewill Scapegoat

Cahill’s review

I asked a Pelagian friend to give his thoughts on my article about original sin. This is my review of his review. http://shawncahill.blogspot.com/2017/04/original-sin-review.html?m=1 “I wish to look at OT evidence for the concept of Original Sin. Some say that God only punishes us for our own sins that are done in our own lives.” The author then goes on to list many verses showing people who faced a temporal judgment for the actions of their ancestors, which I do not deny. The point is he may believe that we are only punished for our own sin. This disproves the contrary … Continue reading Cahill’s review

How to flunk Soteriology101?

I will criticize Dr. Leighton Flowers based on bad argumentation and faulty reasoning. I have talked to him and he seems like a nice guy. He just has the strangest way of being obsessed with Calvinism. This will hopefully be … Continue reading How to flunk Soteriology101?

Faith alone implies Christ alone

It’s been said that I reject Grace alone and faith alone by Christian Anarchist and his friends. This is another false charge of “Spiritually Dishonest Ministries”. Anarchist has had a problem with me and now wishes to move from attacking my character to that of attacking my doctrine. Just not on an issue of mere simple doctrine , but on the heart of the Gospel. In leveling these charges he attacks my place before God. Which is something I take seriously. While he supports sodomy he condemns me as unorthodox. I think he needs to read up. The questions now … Continue reading Faith alone implies Christ alone
