Ephesian 5:15 & 16 “Pay careful attention, then, to how you walk – not as unwise people but as wise – making the most of the time, because the days are evil.” (HCSB) That reference to making the most is literally “buying back the time” but I like the translation of “redeeming the time.” Sadly,…

Dear Fellow SBC-Affiliated Church Member: What are you Funding?
I fear too many members of SBC churches are giving money, intending to further the Gospel of Christ, and unknowingly funding the teaching of a false Gospel in our seminaries. This is happening through professors and leaders who embrace false teachings and knowingly hide what they are doing. Walter Strickland is one such professor at…
Who’s Going to Build This Temple Anyway
Do you not know that you are God’s temple and that God’s Spirit dwells in you? If anyone destroys God’s temple, God will destroy him. For God’s temple is holy, and you are that temple. 1 Corinthians 3:16 & 17 It is a good reminder of the seriousness of caring for the Bride of Christ;…
Christian Nationalism: Next Talking Point for BigEva?
Last updated on January 28th, 2021 at 07:56 pmWhat is Christian Nationalism? Good question. One that needs answering as it looks to become the next talking point to used to try to shut down people who want to speak honestly about God, His Word, and His Church. Like Critical Race Theory (CRT), the term has…
The Sin of Achan
I’ve been reading through the book of Joshua recently. Normally when I read Old Testament events regarding Israel, I don’t necessarily feel like they have a direct application today. Am I wrong? Maybe. I do think they are insightful into God’s character and valuable to understanding our faith. Chapter 7 of Joshua hit me differently.…
The Social Justice Gospel
The church is infected. The infection is an ideology based in Marxist thought that fundamentally opposed to the all-sufficient, saving work of our Lord, Jesus Christ. Like most things infected, it starts stinking if left untreated. Unbeknownst to me, the infection has been going on for years and the stench of it finally caught my…
At a Loss
I’m at a complete and total loss. The more I go to look into the nasty, devilish teachings of Critical Race Theory (CRT), the more I find it has infiltrated into an institution I’ve long affiliated myself with. The Provost and Sr. VP of Southern Seminary, an institution of the Southern Baptist Convention (SBC), claims…
Deadly Familiarity
Several days a week find me commuting a little over 70 miles. Once in a while a take an alternate route that takes me through open range land. You know you’re in open range land when you’re driving down a road, usually a Farm-to-Market road, and you suddenly cross cattle guards and the fences disappear.…
Wait. What? Things I Didn’t Know About the Bible
Last updated on November 12th, 2019 at 04:55 amI was raised in church. I’ve often joked with folks that in the church of my youth, the pastor had to push his way through the our family to get the doors unlocked. That experience formed me and gave me some connections that have lasted my lifetime.…
Tozer on Watered-down Religion
Last updated on November 12th, 2019 at 05:02 amI’ve really taken a liking to A. W. Tozer over the past two years. He would likely be stunned even more in some of today’s “church” services.
