    "II. God alone is Lord of the conscience,(k) and hath left it free from the doctrines and commandments of men, which are in any thing contrary to His Word; or beside it, if matters of faith or worship.(l) So that, to believe such doctrines, or to obey such commands, out of conscience,(m) is to betray true liberty of conscience: and the requiring of an implicit faith, and an absolute and blind obedience is to destroy liberty of conscience, and reason also.(n)




    (k) Jam. 4:12; Rom. 14:4.


    (l) Acts 4:19; Acts 5:29; I Cor. 7:23; Matt. 23:8, 9, 10; II Cor. 1:24; Matt. 15:9.

    III. They who, upon pretence of Christian liberty, do practice any sin, or cherish any lust, do thereby destroy the end of Christian liberty, which is, that being delivered out of the hands of our enemies, we might serve the Lord, without fear, in holiness and righteousness before Him, all the days of our life.(o)

  • Ep. 13 - A Journey of Grace, From New Mexico to Arkansas, and a Defense of Spiritual Gifts - w/ Rev. Robert Willis
    In this episode, my guest, Robert Willis and I will discuss his newest book entitled "A Journey of Grace" where he and his grandmother tell her story coming from the sand hills of New Mexico to Arkansas. You'll hear about persecution against Pentecostalism during the 20's and 30's, and about a brief defense of the Pentecostal faith against accusations of Montanism and the "Kundalini spirit." We'll also talk about how the faith of Robbie's grandmother was an anchor for her in times of trial.

  • Ep. 12 - Halloween Special 2020 w/ Brittany Dixon
    First of all, I need to apologize because my wife and I tried out a new microphone on this episode and the sound quality is not great. It almost sounds like I'm breaking up a lot. The microphone worked fine when we tested it, but for some reason, in this episode it didn't sound so good. 
    Throughout this episode we will discuss Halloween from a Christian perspective, and why exactly it's okay to let little Johnny dress up as Casper and get some KitKats from the neighbor's house. 
    Here's the links for the articles and resources below:

  • Ep. 11 - Exit Buddies 4 Life w/ Brittany Dixon
    In this episode, Logan and his wife, Brittany, talk about how they met and got married. In the first part of the episode they answer random questions from the Pod Decks app to re-introduce themselves to the audience. They talk about all sorts of things like their worst work experiences, what TV show characters they want to be like, why Brittany believes toilet paper is a waste of money. Then in the second segment, they actually get into the story of how they came together. They discuss how they met, who unwittingly helped them come together, and how they almost got married during a presbytery meeting. 
    There's an issue with the audio for about the first minute, but it gets fixed later.

  • Ep. 10 - Everything from Douglas Wilson to TikTok w/ David Jondro
    This episode is a mixed bag. If you like staying on one topic for an hour at a time, this episode isn't for you. I start off with a couple of bits of news within the world of Christendom, and then David Jondro joins me to talk about a little bit of everything under the sun - The Doug Wilson Debacle, Chinese space weapons, the Charismatic Renewal in the 60's and 70's, and I think we finally somehow landed on TikTok and whether or not it's safe to use.

About Acceptable Words

From the publisher's feed

My name is Wendell Logan Dixon, and I am a Christian, a husband, a pastor, and now an aspiring podcaster. Everyone else has a voice in the wilderness, so why not add mine to the rest of the cacophony? In this show, I hope to provide talks and interviews about faith, life, and a little bit of everything in between. Join me as I interview guests, share articles, and speak words that I hope are, at the very least, acceptable.
