Short note… Proverbs 11:14 Where no counsel is, the people fall: but in the multitude of counsellors there is safety.
Do Pastors have Authority?
I saw a good question in a Facebook group pertaining to pastoral authority. Specifically, one was asking how much authority a pastor has within a congregation. While no one answered with the dictatorial model, some did indicate the pastor has no authority. Some said only God has authority. Some answered claiming the pastor has authority…
The Importance of Nonnegotiable Concepts
We live in a day that is permeated by a sort of conspiratorial Gnosticism, where to some, nothing is ever believed to be what it has been established as being and everything is viewed with suspicion and skepticism.

Radio: The Eternal Sonship of Christ

Hebrews 1:3 Textual Variant
Recently, I was speaking about the afterlife in a message at Flint River and engage in a tangent about the concept of Purgatory. My point was simple; at death, a person goes to one of two places: Paradise or Torments. If a person has been redeemed by Christ, their soul goes to be with Him…
