Triablogue: Exposing Ehrman’s whoppers; affirming the reliability of the New Testament

Exposing Ehrman’s whoppers; affirming the reliability of the New Testament Michael Horton and New Testament Scholar Daniel Wallace discuss Bart Ehrman (and provide tremendous resources to correct his erroneous ramblings) in this edition of the White Horse Inn:http://bit.ly/13xcu4m It has seemed to me that of all the many attacks that Christianity faces in our modern […]

Triablogue: Chess or Dominos?

The Only Real Christian

The Only Real Christian The words of grace that surround this Table of grace are glorious words. The great Augustine once said that if God gave what He commanded, He could command whatever He wanted. This Table has conditions—the unholy are not welcome. This Table contains a promise—the unholy are most welcome. Scripture frequently assigns [...]

Brokenness and Unity

Did the Princetonians Neglect the Human Character of Scripture?

Did the Princetonians Neglect the Human Character of Scripture? Here is an overlooked paragraph from Hodge and Warfield’s 1881 essay on “Inspiration“: It must be remembered that it is not claimed that the Scriptures, any more than their authors, are omniscient. The information they convey is in the forms of human thought, and limited on [...]

So what if abortion ends life?

“Yet a fetus can be a human life without having the same rights as the woman in whose body it resides. She’s the boss. Her life and what is right for her circumstances and her health should automatically trump the rights of the non-autonomous entity inside of her. Always.” See it at: http://www.salon.com/2013/01/23/so_what_if_abortion_ends_life/

Done With Accusation

Done With Accusation This Table goes by various names, like the Eucharist, which means thanksgiving, or by the Lord’s Supper, or the Lord’s Table. One of the common names for it is communion. In this meal, we have communion with the Lord Jesus, and with one another. But communion entails more than a nebulous spirit [...]

And We All Qualify | The Lord’s Table
