Great Sermon! Hello Pastor B, my wife introduced me to your sermons a while back. As one who has a high dose of skepticism I wondered why you did not list your name but instead listed the letter B. She then read your email reply to an email she sent to you asking that very question along with subsequent emails you sent. Thank you for that correspondence. I appreciate your openness about the pretrib rapture and your willingness to see what scripture says vs what man says. I’ve listened to a few of your sermons that touch on this. Your two recent sermons “Who Are The Sheep and Goats” and “ Sheep and Goat Judgement Part 2” were outstanding! Thank you for obeying the will of God in your life and standing on His word at this time. It is a good thing to hear in these times. I also really appreciate the sermon “ More Than A Reading Assignment.” I made notes on the sections you plan to read each day. In reviewing them, I think I might give this a try and see how it goes. I’ve tried different reading plans over the years and I can relate to the “checking the box” mentality vs the deep soak approach. I’ve found the deep soak approach to be much more rewarding. May God continue to Bless you and your family. Until next time - BP

I remember saying before to you that you didn't seem to grasp election. Perhaps that is the problem. As I have already said, I have answered the question in the only way the Bible reveals it. It is your problem if you cannot perceive what it says. Can't you see the way in which election and covenant are combined?
ps. Christians do not use contemptuous terms such as "blah" and "rant" These come from evil hearts such as your accomplice is guilty of.
But I am still commanded to pray for you... Luke 6: 28 "Bless them that curse you, and pray for them which despitefully use you."
I am off now to do prayers. Goodnight John. God be with you.
Great Series! Your series on Luke has been a great encouragement! I look forward to up coming installments. Very well thought out, and carefully researched.
That being said, I feel compelled to make the following note.
Note: The dimensions of the alter of burnt offering may have been used when referring to the alter of incense (Exodus 30:1), as the latter is not as vast as described in the sermon.

Please do not let this discourage your otherwise Excellent work! I admire your dedication to the Word and the work. I would love to hear more expositions on this and other books that approach this quality (I'm still new to sermonaudio, but feel assured your series is of the highest caliber and clearly one of the best I've heard thus far).
