God Loves You. And has a wonderful plan for you life.

Wonderful eh? See why the four spiritual laws seeker method isn't Biblical.

Should we being naming names.

When rebuking the modern church, should we be naming names?
Here is John Wesley's response.



To those who say, "We know that they are wrong, but we only focus on positive teaching. We don't teach through negatives."
Even though I'm the Whitefield kind of guy and Wesley's views on predestination and perfectionism rub me the wrong way, I'll side with Wesley on this one, naming names when calling out heresy.

Response to Modern Church Battle Cry "UNITY"

The battle cry of the modern day church is often "unity! at all cost"
But there is no unity without gospel truth and doctrine. Their cries are just squishy ecumenicism.
A disease most campus ministries seem to teeming with.

Just for Fun

I was just digging through some of my favorite videos and I re-stumbled onto a Rob Bell Parody.
Kind of funny how we knew the emergent church was insulting our God by creating books called "Sex god" and now when our own camp does its own version of it by talking smutty and lowly about the subject its defended by so many.

But enough of that for now, back to one of my favorite parodies.
Its kind of sad that the parody is less insulting with its book title than the actual thing. Odd how a parody is more tame than the real heresy. Either way very funny video. Enjoy

Summer School Fishing

Summer School at UCLA will be starting next week. For six weeks many students from across the globe will be attending UCLA for the summer exchange program.
Here are some of my goals:
To have boldness in proclaiming the Gospel.
To make use of every opportunity presented to me.
To rely wholly on God to do the work of salvation and the changing of one's heart.
To remember to bring my tracts and audio recorder with me.

Hopefully this will be a productive summer session in which many hear the gospel and take it back to where ever they came from.

Resolved

The last few days have been pure blessing. 3-4 sermons a day from some of the biggest names of our day.
Some clips http://www.youtube.com/user/iamresolved

I got Steve Lawson to allow me to be his friend after I awkwardly asked him whether I could be his friend. lol

I got Lawson's, Piper, and Mahaney's signatures on their books. Missed MacArthur cause he had to leave early.I would be very sad if I didn't have the blessing of seeing him on a weekly bases at Grace Community Church.

All the audio of the sermons are up at http://www.resolved.org/media.aspx

And as planned I gave Piper a letter with a few questions about the Driscoll issue. Chose this means of communication out of respect and wisdom in realizing it isn't quite fair to ask them in a place where those not caught up with the situation are surrounding him.
I must say though, I love how John MacArthur addressed the issue by presenting to us in one of his sermons how it bad it is to "causes one of these little ones who believe in Me to stumble"
