VIDEO: Humanity on Trial - John MacArthur

8/24/2013

0 Comments

 
The following is excerpted from the transcript "Humanity on Trial":

It is universally true that people like to think of themselves as good, basically. But that is not the testimony of Scripture. The testimony of Scripture is that unequivocably the entire human race is evil, as the vernacular would tell us today, bad to the bone, corrupt to the core.

Men live with the consequent guilt of their wickedness. They don't like it. They don't want to face it. They try to eliminate it by adapting a more convenient kind of morality or by silencing their crying conscience.

Some years ago, a psychologist put it this way, “One of the most painful self-mutilating time and energy consuming exercises in the human experience is guilt. It can ruin your day, or your week, or your life if you let it. It turns up like a bad penny when you do something dishonest, hurtful, tacky, selfish or rotten. Never mind that it was the result of ignorance, stupidity, laziness, thoughtlessness, weak flesh or clay feet. You did wrong and the guilt is killing you. Too bad. But be assured. The agony you feel is normal. Remember, guilt is a pollutant and we don't need anymore of it in the world.” And with that last statement, the article ended without a solution to get rid of it.

Admittedly we don't like it. Admittedly we wish we could get rid of it. But what is the means to relieve us of guilt? More importantly than living with guilt is living with the reality of future divine judgment. Guilt in a sense is that which we impose on ourselves. And that is not nearly so deadly as that which God will impose upon us. We can make our life in this world miserable by guilt. But God will make our life in the next world miserable by judgment.

Sin produces then a misery in this life and an infinite and eternal misery in the life to come. People try to deal with their guilt in many ways...alcohol, drugs, sometimes suicide, any kind of earthly diversion. But in the end, it's very hard to avoid because according to Romans chapter 2, all human beings have a Law written in their hearts, a Law of God written in the heart of every sinner. Not only do they have a moral sense that is part of being human, like the other senses, seeing and hearing and smelling and tasting. There is this sense of what is right and this sense of what is wrong that is built in to the whole human race.

WHAT’S SO ROTTEN ABOUT COMMON CORE CURRICULUM?

Part of the government’s economic stimulus program will poke, prod and train your children. And on top of that, it will datamine your children through many different measuring tools including wireless skin sensors, facial expression cameras and even MRIs. Think we’re kidding?

It’s all part of something called the Common Core Standards.  We’re just going to call it Common Core, and today you’re going to hear why many people are concerned. Where does Common Core come from, and what is its end game? We want to provide you with as many resources as we can about this topic.

Someone who has been sounding the alarm about Common Core is Kyle Olson, publisher and founder ofEAGnews.org dedicated to education reform. Kyle is a contributor to TownHall.Com and has written a book titled, Indoctrination: How Useful Idiots Are Using Our Schools To Subvert American Exceptionalism.

The Battle for the Beginning - John MacArthur

The Battle for the Beginning - John MacArthur
​

Description:
Everyone knows that evolutionists and creationists dispute how the universe began. And regardless of which side of the battle line you’re on, most people harbor strong feelings about the issue of origins. 
  
Yet there are a host of important questions at the core of the battle that relatively few in either camp have bothered to ask—much less answer: 
​


  • Why is the issue of origins so universally controversial?
  • How can creationists support biblical claims that so obviously seem to contradict modern science?
  • Whose side of the argument does scientific evidence support?
  • What roles should science and the Bible play in a person’s beliefs about the physical universe?
With the curiosity of a student and the precision of a veteran Bible teacher, John MacArthur takes you to the heart of the battle in his study The Battle for the Beginning.  Based on an in-depth examination of Genesis chapter 1, The Battle for the Beginning takes you on an instructive, fascinating journey into the Bible’s own claims about creation, evolution, and the vital issues at stake.

No gospel without wrath by La Shawn Barber








When I read that the Presbyterian Church USA (PCUSA) decided to exclude from its hymnals the song “In Christ Alone” (see video below) because the second verse mentions God’s wrath, I knew it was more evidence of doctrinal slide. The PCUSA, which takes a “progressive” view of Scripture, asked the song’s writers, Keith Getty and Stuart Townend, if the church could change the lyrics from “Till on that cross as Jesus died / The wrath of God was satisfied” to “Till on that cross as Jesus died / The love of God was magnified.” The songwriters refused.

Why would a denomination want to remove a hymn’s reference to God’s wrath? Mary Louise Bringle, a member of the PCUSA song committee, attempted to explain [...]

Sparks fly over “I’ll Fly Away”

THE WORLD AND EVERYTHING IN IT - “A few more weary days”
Sparks fly over “I’ll Fly Away.” Last week the U-S 6th Circuit Court of Appeals in Ohio ordered more hearings in the matter of just who owns the rights and royalties to the American classic “I’ll Fly Away.” http://www.worldmag.com/podcast/worldandeverything/TWAEII_2013Aug20_04.php

Assuming that the people involved in this court case are Christians, I thought that it would be appropriate to address the issue of Christians suing each other.


The following is from GotQuestions.org:


Question: "What does the Bible say about lawsuits / suing?"

Answer: 
The apostle Paul instructed the Corinthian believers to not go to court against one another (1 Corinthians 6:1-8). For Christians not to forgive each other and reconcile their own differences is to demonstrate spiritual defeat. Why would someone want to become a Christian if Christians have just as many problems and are just as incapable of solving them? However, there are some instances when a lawsuit might be the proper course of action. If the biblical pattern for reconciliation has been followed (Matthew 18:15-17) and the offending party is still in the wrong, in some instances a lawsuit might be justified. This should only be done after much prayer for wisdom (James 1:5) and consultation with spiritual leadership.

Logical Fallacies by Dr. Jason Lisle

8/19/2013

Logical Fallacies: Ad Hominem by Jason Lisle - The phrase ad hominem is Latin and means “to the man.” The fallacy is so named because it directs an argument against the person making a claim rather than the claim itself. The critic hopes that people will believe the claim in question is false simply on the basis that there is something objectionable about the person making the claim.
Logical Fallacies: Introduction by Dr. Jason Lisle


Whenever I hear people debating some issue (abortion, gun control, origins, religion, politics, etc.), I often spot a number of mistakes in their arguments. Mistakes in reasoning are called “logical fallacies,” and they abound in origins debates. I have often thought it would be fun to carry a little buzzer that I could push when someone makes a fundamental mistake in reasoning. Of course, that would be impolite. However, we should all become familiar with logical fallacies so that our mental buzzer goes off whenever we hear a mistake in reasoning.

Logic (the study of correct and incorrect reasoning) has become a lost skill in our culture. And that is a shame. It is a very valuable tool, particularly for the Christian who wants to defend his or her faith better. Evolutionists often commit logical fallacies, and it is important that creationists learn to identify and refute such faulty reasoning. Sadly, I often see creationists committing logical fallacies as well. There is hardly anything more embarrassing than someone who advocates your position, but does so using bad reasoning!
