9 Common Emotional/Situational Pornography Triggers

September 26, 2019 by George Alvarado

Of all my years counseling Christians and non about the dangers of pornography, there are 9 common emotional and situational patterns that trigger porn use. Some of these are simply symptoms of a deeper problem, meanwhile others only serve to justify a depraved craving. I don’t want to harshly judge those who have fought tooth […]

Children’s Book Review — The Man Who Preached Outside

The Man Who Preached Outside is a short depiction of the life of George Whitefield, the well-known itinerant preacher in the UK and USA. Your children will see George Whitefield heralding the glorious gospel of Jesus Christ to a crowd. A good idea will be to show the child the variety of responses Mr. Whitefield is getting from the crowd. Warning, they aren’t all positive! But this should give the opportunity to prepare your child for opposition should he or she come to saving faith.

Psalm 119:93-96 — Limited Perfection

We Remember Psalms 119:93 ESV I will never forget your precepts, for by them you have given me life. One of the most depressing themes of scripture is the frequency and ease with which the people of God tend to forget what He has said. The Scripture is replete with reminders (1 Corinthians 15:1; Jude 1:5,17; […]

Made by SA007, a bomb suitcase. It is a devious puzzle, which you have to solve by defusing the "bomb" within a 5 minute time-window. After that, it will go off and "explode". Various triggers and switches will set it off prematurely when incorrectly handled. You are allowed to use anything found inside the case plus basic lock-picking tools. It'll beep ominously and also more frequently as the countdown approaches zero and tension rises. It is impossible to get it right on the first try and you will probably hear lots of explosions.

1 Timothy 2:12 Revisited — The Authority Word Problem

In How to Use a “For” Clause: 1 Timothy 2:12 and Egalitarianism, I explained how the two phrases in verses 13 and 14 should guide our understanding of how Paul uses the verb “do not permit” in verse 12. More recently, I came across Defusing the 1 Timothy 2:12 Bomb, an argument that “there are too […]

You Must be Born Again: Make Regeneration Great Again

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 […]

The following is what I told my church on January 10, 2021. Click here for the audio. Our commitment at CBC is verse by verse and expositional preaching.

Don’t Get Woke. Get to Know Your Local Church Brethren.

Nestled within 1 Corinthians 11, we find a likely familiar passage concerning the Lord’s Table which pertains to the current social media conversation on racism and socioeconomic class. Critical race theory is probably the last topic I want to write about at the moment, but it certainly is the topic du jour, so let’s take it on […]
