Cogitations

Anyone notice the verse on the side of the satan shoes? It's rather ironic that this verse is used. It shouldn't be surprising though. Most times the world uses verses they are our of their context. 

I have been thinking about these shoes that have some out paying homage to satan. In this episode I share some of those thoughts. 

This episode is some of my thoughts after a study of John chapter eight. Jesus, the greatest teacher who ever walked the earth, taught in such a way that made folk take up stones to cast at Him. Are we so paralyzed by fear of offending people that we compromise the truth by teaching a watered down version of discipleship? I would hope not. 

I am so sad to see people who claim to be Christians defend a woman's right to chose to kill her unborn child. Here are some of my thoughts about this and a short discussion of an argument that people who are pro choice use.

I have been accused of teaching a works salvation more often than I can count. Is it true? Does the Scripture not tells to do something in order to be saved? Take a listen and let me know what you think. 

This episode is my thoughts from an exchange I had with a fellow in the We Talk Truth group who was convinced that it is sin to help non-Christians from the church treasury. This podcast doesn't so much deal with that doctrine as it deals with being convinced and understand the ramifications of saying someone is violating Scripture. 

A memory came up in my Facebook memories that got me to thinking. This episode are some of my thoughts on the state of benevolence in the church today. Let me know what you think

This should be the last piece of content I put out about this letter going around. Several have asked the question as to why formal withdrawal is necessary from someone who has already removed themselves from the church. Hopefully I answered that questions adequately from Scripture. 

Not to belabor the point, but here are some more of my thoughts on this letter going around. I am sad to say that much biblical ignorance has been manifest because of this. 

I have always been intrigued at the illustration uses about a woman bearing a child. One of the most painful things a human can endure leads to one of the most precious and joyous things on earth, a newborn babe. Take a listen and let me know what you think.
