You Must be Born Again: Make Regeneration Great Again

March 16, 2020 by Allen Nelson IV

In God’s kind providence, it was a biblical understanding of the great doctrine of regeneration that birthed (I’m not sure if I’m intending the pun or not) the evangelical movement of the 18th century. Sadly, it is also a misunderstanding and underemphasis of this doctrine that has contributed to the unraveling of evangelicalism in the […]

Brittany the Broccoli Hater

July 16, 2018 by Allen Nelson IV

It was funny at first. Little two-year-old Brittany’s parents thought it was so cute as she’d spit out the green vegetable and then viciously rub her hands on her tongue as though attempting to erase every shred of taste completely out of her mouth. Well, it was sort of cute actually. The way she’d furrow […]

9 Reasons to Depart from Iniquity

Today’s post has my name on it, but I didn’t write it. Rather, we turn to our friend John Bunyan to consider his exhortations on why believers ought to depart from iniquity. This comes from Bunyan’s work, A Holy Life, The Beauty of Christianity. Here are Bunyan’s words on why Christians must depart from iniquity:  […]

3 Things Christian Men Should Stop Calling Their Wives

When we write or speak, we are communicating thoughts, and those thoughts either reflect biblical orthodoxy or they do not. Carelessness in speech, although not criminal, is still an outpouring of a heart that isn’t really striving for godliness (Matthew 12:36–37). Here’s a list of three things I hear men say or see them write […]

Pure Logical Milk?

1 Peter 2:2 is a major point of contention in the King James Only controversy, but the real issues underlying the passage get lost amidst the standard KJVO rhetoric. ESV (2016) — Like newborn infants, long for the pure spiritual milk, that by it you may grow up into salvation—” NASB (1995) — like newborn […]

God’s Desire for All: STTA!

Below is Calvin’s commentary on 2 Peter 3:9. Though I would disagree with his exegesis here, I do agree with the theology and find it supported by the rest of Scripture, namely that, though God will not save all men, He does have a genuine desire for the salvation of the world. We must be […]
