“Now the God of peace, that brought again from the dead our Lord Jesus, that great shepherd of the sheep, through the blood of the everlasting covenant, Make you perfect in every good work to do his will, working in you that which is well-pleasing in his sight, through Jesus Christ; to whom be gloryContinue reading “The Eschatological Emphasis of the Benediction of Hebrews 13:20-21”

Why Dr. Ward is Under No Compulsion to Reply and Reverse Himself on Psalm 12:6-7
We should first remember that Dr. Ward is not a scholar in the traditional sense of doing high level research probing for yet undeveloped or underdeveloped truth. His “false friends” idea was neither original nor did it contribute to the literature on the King James Bible. It was rather the tract of a propogandist lookingContinue reading “Why Dr. Ward is Under No Compulsion to Reply and Reverse Himself on Psalm 12:6-7”
The Fallacy of Edification REQUIRES Intelligibility
The above picture is my Westminster Theological Seminary diploma for a Master of Arts in Religion. It is easily my favorite diploma. My Calvin Theological Seminary looks like a standard high school/college diploma and while my PhD diploma is just as large as my Westminster one, it is not in Latin. Though I have comeContinue reading “The Fallacy of Edification REQUIRES Intelligibility”
The Reformation Bible Society’s Annual Meeting Less Than Two Months Away
Dr. Ward’s Time is Running Out
On February 18, 2022, I posted an article entitled “Dr. Mark Ward, Psalm 12:6-7, and the Historic Exegetical Argument for the Providential Preservation of God’s word.” Now surpassing the two-year anniversary of this response to Dr. Ward’s opposition to Psalm 12:6-7 teaching the providential preservation of Scripture, I thought I would follow up on Dr.Continue reading “Dr. Ward’s Time is Running Out”
No Middle Ground Between Theologically and Anthropologically Sourced Bibliology
To rob the Church of the truth gleaned through the exegesis of Scripture, passages are wrested to diminish the substantive or intrinsic significance of the written word. For instance, counsel, covenant, truth, judgments, testimonies, and law are considered subjects taught uncoupled from the ontological character of God’s written word. These subjects may be pure andContinue reading “No Middle Ground Between Theologically and Anthropologically Sourced Bibliology”
Sunday Musings On Why We Do What We Do
That the immutable written word’s delivery by immediate inspiration into a sin cursed world put the Scripture into a comprehensive, adversarial context cannot be underestimated. Everything and everywhere the pure word of God touched and was carried suffered under the devastation of the curse. And indeed, if left up to historic, sin-cursed methods, the immediatelyContinue reading “Sunday Musings On Why We Do What We Do”
Andrew Willet (1562-1621) on the Ten Churchly Exegetical Renderings of Romans 7
This post does not directly relate to an apologetic for a standard sacred text. What is does, however, is demonstrate the depth of study engaged in by our Reformation era forefathers before coming to an exegetical decision. Willet stands as perhaps the principal example of this era to the opposite of the claim of “nonscientific.”Continue reading “Andrew Willet (1562-1621) on the Ten Churchly Exegetical Renderings of Romans 7”
Secretariat and 1 John 5:7
On June 9, 1973, was the 105th running of the Belmont Stakes at Belmont Park in Belmont, New York in front of a crowd of 69,138 spectators. Facing a field of five horses, Secretariat won by 31 lengths, the largest margin of victory in Belmont history, and never since approached, winning the Triple Crown ofContinue reading “Secretariat and 1 John 5:7”
DEBATE: Dr. Van Kleeck Jr. vs. Francis Turretin (aka TurretinFan)
Recently I have accepted an invitation to debate Francis Turretin (aka TurretinFan) on Nick Sayer’s YouTube channel. The topic under examination is as follows: “Has God’s Word Been Perfectly Preserved by the Greek and Hebrew Manuscripts or by the King James translation?” The question, as proposed by TurretinFan, needs some work. It is a bitContinue reading “DEBATE: Dr. Van Kleeck Jr. vs. Francis Turretin (aka TurretinFan)”
