WhipperJesus How about Voddie Baucham or Conrad Mbewe? Would you have mentioned race had they been involved, because they are in plenty of conferences and plenty of Q&A sessions. The only reason anyone should take offense by what these men are saying is if they are answering against the sins of those who are offended. In that case, I'd recommend you search the Scriptures to see that these things are indeed so and repent.

jammymommy I am amazed how people have so much knowledge

yes and for being able to listen no matter where you are.Amen.

They are great men. I wish though they address more the problem of toxic feminism and how it’s corrupted our churches and society. It’s now 2019 and we not only have gay marriage but male transgendered athletes demanding they compete with females. Who knows what’s next. The root of many of these problems is feminism. It’s toxic and it must end. Women must be taught how to embrace their femininity, they must start raising boys to be masculine. They must start managing their homes and properly raising their children. What good is it to protest abortion and gay marriage if we are silent about toxic feminism.

@@artcurious807 I think there is a basic underlying root cause of feminism as with all other manifestations of humanism. And the root cause, to name a few, is sin and hating God.

EXACTLY!

Yes, they need to be under the preaching of the Word, it's a means of grace.

Lol. I am at peace with my Lord regardless of the situation. The only thing you were meant to do is hear the Word of God as it is written. You did hear it but the god of this age made you deaf. You did not answer the verses of Scripture I sent you and since you do not understand it anyway, I won't waste my time with the spirit of error in you. May the Spirit of His grace lead you to repentance and believing in our Christ the Lord.

You have no idea of the chronology of Scriptures. You are prejudiced and have no idea about the way His Spirit made it I inffalable and He did not start with the English speaking world. You haven't a clue about the other ones and how Luther did his work or Tyndale. Let alone our early Church fathers. Your profile is empty just as you a cloud without water for whom darkness is reserved forever. That is a true statement! However, I hope that you will repent and except Jesus Christ as your Lord in humility and many tears as we all have shed and continue to repent daily with tears of joy after we have been disciplined. To Him be the glory forever more. Amen!

Wow that is so good the way R.C explains the word it is amazing , how much I learn every time I hear him,He is agreat Theologian one of the best of these time to the Glory of God !

+tegegn If you're not enjoying this, why listen?

it's foolishness to the world because they cannot nor will not understand it. That is what the Bible says. By the way in other conferences like this there are people of other colored skin too. But just in case you were wondering, skin makes no difference in a man, it is his heart which determines his outcome. In other words it is what they do with the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

WhipperJesus given your comments I would strongly urge you to reconsider your perspective that elites wrote the Bible as means of control ... more likely elites used the Bible to misinform the public at large and used it as means of control. My point here is explicit in its historical context when you consider what the reformation was about. Way back in the day reading the bible or owning the bible was not allowed. If you're not making these comments purely for the purpose of trolling I would like you to read just one chapter: Romans 12 (ESV) ... My fav chapter

@WhipperJesus These are of course your opinions and you are at liberty, as you have in all of your comments, to express them.

I think they’re holding together very well. In fact they’re thriving. So far, so good.

@@JJStetson Myself, not being mean nor too harsh intentionally, but w/out too lengthy a reply here I have seen/heard very plain things put down in Bible, then these learned theologians ramble on and so often cannot even give an answer...only R.C. has done so that I see. No offense meant, only puzzlement from me is all.

I agree with Sproul (of course, as an Anglican ;) ). To argue that it's fundamentally wrong to have images depicting Jesus' human Nature is to be a monophysite.

Great. But can u say Why?

He was defending the historic position of the Church. Godfrey was defending a monphysitist mentality.

Fight the good fight brother. Assuming you're a chaplain, based on the context of the comment you made, I'm in a similar boat. As a fellow service member, it is becoming increasingly difficult to remain faithful to Christ in our mutual environment. I do not plan on remaining in much longer. May God grant you strength as you continue to walk in His ways.

***** I know he's against Catholic Doctrine, but I mean is he on board with the loonie people that think it's the beast of revelation?

+The Rebel Wolf I feel confident that Dr. Mohler would affirm that the Roman catholic church does NOT teach the true Gospel of Jesus Christ. No Gospel, no salvation. Secondly, I don't know his exact eschatological view but I will add this one last note; I don't think it's fair to categorize any believing, faithful, orthodox Christian as "loonie" based on their view of eschatology. There are quite a few Orthodox views. Some are more solid than others.

+tegegn Could you please elaborate on what way the Bible has been "manufactured"?

I think the bigger problem e face is not differences in theology or eschatology but the use of the FBI to disrupt both Catholic and Protestant churches. Has anyone considered the possibility that the FBI has been weaponized against the Christian community? That like the IRS the FBI has been used as a tool to disrupt the Catholic Church? And real havoc within the Protestant community? Think about it.

@@urbantheyounger6102 the >Roman< Catholic church is the whore of Babylon.

Rom 2:28 For no one is a Jew who is merely one outwardly, nor is circumcision outward and physical. Rom 2:29 But a Jew is one inwardly, and circumcision is a matter of the heart, by the Spirit, not by the letter. His praise is not from man but from God.

***** There is no "fear" involved whatsoever. And you really need to withold your mouth before you research these conclusions about Christ that you assume to be true. 12 apostles? Yea. Gay? Hardly. No first century Jew would have been. There is no "good theological case" for homosexuality within the sphere of Christianity. Once again--read Romans--particularly the first few chapters and how they fit into the rest of the discourse. If you had the guts to actually check yourself which clearly you don't. You don't show a care for truth, you show a care to back up homosexuality. Sproul is right--you people love the destruction of marriage, family, and everything that stands as a symbol for God himself--which the union of a man and woman does in every way--by wisdom, by complementarity, and especially by the longevity of the human race established through it. Your hatred for everything God drives you into your own grave.

***** Wow. There is so much ignorance here its hard to know where to begin. Firstly, and most importantly--"Jesus" and "Christ" refer to the same person, at least from a biblical perspective. The epistles use the designation "Christ" in the same way we use last names today, and this is the reason why Paul tells us he only "preaches Christ crucified"--because "Jesus Christ" was the one who conquered death from the cross. So talking about one necessarily implies the other. You clearly thought there was a difference and now you know there isn't. Secondly, to challenge his historicity completely reveals your historiographic ignorance. His life death and resurrection--yes, all three--are more historiographically verified than the existence of Plato and Aristotle combined. I know your pagan mind can't fathom that but it is a fact that every historian has to deal with. Oh, and let's deal now with your pagan notions of "loving God"--sexual love is not something the true God demands for himself, but in the Christian/Jewish view it is a gift giving between the original male/female pair that he created (and humanity has been traced to an "original" couple from a genetic perspective, look it up) so this is an act enjoyed not only designated between that pair alone for functional reasons (unless you devalue children, which all pagans have through history, that's why they sacrificed them to their so-called gods) and so your need to include "sexual love" in the same sphere as the loving God reveals your pagan mind. This is a pagan mentality--its why the Greeks in the first century and many others had temple prostitutes to honor their pagan gods, and was also the reason the Apostle Paul says to stay away from them. So no--I have not "fantasized" about any man-god figure because the Holy Spirit that rose Jesus Christ from the dead would not fill anyone with such images. And turning to your genetic argument (the most common form of "I am born that way" argument) also reveals your ignorance of genetics. Modern geneticists have demonstrated that specific regions of the gene code are affected (turned on and off for protein production) by the choices and practices that are made in the lifetime of the individual and that the residual of these effects made by these choices on the gene code is inherited up to the fourth generation ahead of them, leaving their kids to deal with it by their own sets of choices. (a number of TED talks on this issue) There is a great deal more to say but you have enough to chew on now. The only "arrogant" one in this conversation is the one who feels the need to air the dirty laundry of opinions outside of the need to do some research before opening your mouth. Why? because hiding behind your opinions keeps you from having to face the facts since you are to scared to change them, and then accusing me of being "arrogant" keeps the argument off those very facts. In other words--get over yourself. Quit talking like your a Christian because you have revealed your pagan mentality through your testimony. I don't personally care whether you are or not, but don't talk like you've got something to say about Christianity cause you're a pagan.

these guys are so funny

John Baker You want humor, you go to comedy central. Those laughing while watching others sifting through history and science are making an alternate function for their mouths in the absence of contribution. Again, you want funny--there's plenty of comedy vids on you tube.

but i prefer this kind of satire. the way the use hyperbole to make fun of religion is brilliant

He's not being faithful to Calvin that's a misunderstanding he is being faithful first to what scripture says.

@@buffalo1d Respectfully, we agree to disagree.

@@bownoworbowlater8870 You clearly don't understand and are wrong.

To be faithful to the Word of God, is to be a calvinist.

Yes John Calvin was fallible, and in spite of his fallibility, he preached the sovereignty of God, who through the doctrine of predestination, has ordained an Elect to join Him in the Kingdom of Heaven. Total depravity, unconditional election, limited atonement, irresistible grace, and perseverance of the saints. He preached the infallible Scripture.

Are you concerned about the substance of the correction or the subject that was corrected? I hope, no matter my intellectual prowess, that I remain humble and correctable. I love the truth.

@@thingamujigger1585 Meh, neither anymore. I am just an idiot sinner saved by grace.

They agreed on prudence with respect to images of the Godhead. I don’t see them as narrow minded, rather they’re being reverent toward our Creator. Remember who God is.
