sola scriptura

That is not a comfortable question, but it is a necessary one. A lot of people act like asking it is automatically rebellious, proud, or divisive. It is not. In fact, refusing to ask it can be far more dangerous. If a man is teaching the Word of God, then what he says should stand up to the...

A lot of people assume that if something is widely accepted in Christianity, it must be right. That is a dangerous way to think. Truth is not determined by popularity. A belief does not become biblical just because a lot of people repeat it, a lot of churches teach it, or a lot of Christian...

There comes a point when every Christian has to decide where his final authority really is. It is easy to say, “I believe the Bible,” until the Bible challenges something we have been taught for years. Jesus said, “Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth” (John 17:17 KJV). That...

Introducing Our In-Depth Bible Study on Prayer Prayer is one of those things Christians can talk about a lot without ever slowing down to ask what Scripture actually says about it. We know we are supposed to pray. We hear people say, “Just pray about it.” We hear promises quoted about asking...

This article I saw today made me think it would be a good topic for discussion: Church membership biblical, theologians say, despite cultural headwinds Church membership and commitment are becoming a live issue as formal membership declines. Baptist Press reports today on declining church...

I want to post this video as an example of how false teachers operate. I am not posting it just because what happens in the video is strange. What I want people to notice is how something that is not taught anywhere in Scripture can be made to look spiritual, and then what happens when somebody...

Have We Replaced Christ and His Word With Men’s Systems? Something has gone badly wrong when Christians can discuss Calvin, Arminius, dispensationalism, creeds, and confessions for hours, but struggle to remain focused on what the Bible actually says in its context. There is nothing wrong with...

When a Theological Label Starts Reading the Bible for You What happens when a theological label or system becomes so important that a person can no longer open the Bible without seeing that system on every page? At that point, the label is no longer simply describing what the person believes. It...

There are times when God’s Word will not let a man hide behind excuses. It brings the choice right out into the open. Joshua said, “choose you this day whom ye will serve” Joshua 24:15. Joshua was not speaking to people who had no knowledge of God. Israel had seen what the LORD had done. God...

You stiff-necked people, uncircumcised in heart and ears, you always resist the Holy Spirit. As your fathers did, so do you. Which of the prophets did your fathers not persecute? And they killed those who announced beforehand the coming of the Righteous One, whom you have now betrayed and...

Jesus did not prepare His disciples for an easy road. He prepared them for a faithful one. John 16 is not soft religion for comfortable people. It is battlefield truth for those who follow Christ in a world that hates the light. Jesus opens this passage with a warning: “These things have I...

This poll is meant to make one thing clear: Bible knowledge, teachers, and study tools may be useful, but they must never sit above the written Word of God. When confidence, credentials, and commentaries become a cover for false doctrine A man can know the language, quote the teachers...

The following video, if it actually told the whole story, would be a great video, but I want to bring out how our culture subtly and deceitfully leaves out important parts so sin can be promoted without challenge. They didn’t deny the sin. They just refused to say it. And that’s how...

This article is part of the Battle for Truth – Holding the Line series. You cannot defend fog. You cannot guard a rumor. And you cannot hold a line you have never clearly drawn. When Paul told Timothy, “Hold fast the form of sound words” ~2 Timothy 1:13, he was not talking about religious...

This article is part of the Battle for Truth – Holding the Line series. Next: What Is Sound Doctrine? We are living in a time when men apologize for believing what God has plainly said. They bow their heads as though conviction were a character flaw. They speak softly about eternal truths as if...

This article is part of the Battle for Truth – Holding the Line series. Next: How False Teaching Slips In Truth does not need a makeover. It does not need a focus group. It does not bend to the wind. But every generation tries to sand it down until it feels safe in human hands. Not long ago, the...
