“ Christmas Is A Roman Catholic Missions Strategy! ” "Christmas was not celebrated by the apostolic church. It was not celebrated during the first few centuries of the church. As late as A.D. 245, Origen (Hom. 8 on Leviticus) repudiated ...the idea of keeping the birthday of Christ, "as if he were a king Pharaoh." By the middle of the 4th century, many churches in the Latin west were celebrating Christmas. During the 5th century, Christmas became an official Roman Catholic holy day. In A.D. 534, Christmas was recognized as an official holy day by the Roman state.The reason that Christmas became a church holy day has nothing to do with the Bible. The Bible does not give the date of Christ's birth. Nowhere in the Bible are we commanded to celebrate Christmas. Christmas (as well as many other pagan practices) was adopted by the Roman church as a missionary strategy." - The Regulative Principle of Worship and Christmas by Brian Schwertley FREE BOOK at http://www.swrb.com/newslett/actualNLs/CHRISTMAS.htm or on the Puritan Hard Drive http://ow.ly/dZ3ua

“ Useful ” How can the church expect blessing unless is obedient? Separation is the route into blessing
"Forty years long was I grieved with this generation, and said, It is a people that do err in their heart, and they have not known my ways: Unto whom I sware in my wrath that they should not enter into my rest." Ps 95
“ Great Book! ” I bought the book on the internet. Great book and very recommendable to all of those who believe there is no God, Heaven or Hell. A Deathbed reveals a lot about these realities.
“ Great Sermon! ” I hope and pray that many muslimfriends may learn to know the one name given under heaven among men, whereby we must be saved: The Lord Jesus Christ (Acts 4:12). The Son of God (John 20:31).
“ Great Book! ” Best explenation on 2 Thess 2 and Revelation. Showing that the Papacy is the Antichrist mentioned in Scripture. Also hoping and praying that those who are in this system may come out of her and be saved (Rev. 18:4)
I should be the one thanking you for the resources my Church has been Blessed by available through SW and Puritan. Thank you again, and have a Blessed Season
Thanks Steve. It's hard to understand how Tom could have missed something so obvious about this blog page. In any case, below is a little more information in defense of God's truth, which is sometimes nicknamed "Calvinism".
God's Absolute Sovereignty (Predestination) and Man's Full Responsibility and Free Agency (In the Bible) - Free Reformation Resources (MP3s, Videos, Books, etc.) http://ow.ly/TrnwA (at PurtianDownloads.com). This page includes the best free MP3 sermon (on SermonAudio) we have heard harmonizing God's absolute sovereignty with man's complete responsibility, as it is revealed in the Bible.
"What is the heresy of Rome, but the addition of something to the perfect merits of Jesus Christ--the bringing in of the works of the flesh, to assist in our justification? And what is the heresy of Arminianism but the addition of something to the work of the Redeemer? Every heresy, if brought to the touchstone, will discover itself here. I have my own private opinion that there is no such thing as preaching Christ and Him crucified, unless we preach what nowadays is called Calvinism. It is a nickname to call it Calvinism; Calvinism is the gospel, and nothing else." (From the Spurgeon sermon A Defense of Calvinism, free MP3 at http://tinysa.com/255911 on SermonAudio).
“ Best Sermon! ” This is one of the best sermons. It discusses several things I have struggled with. He explains each point thoroughly with Scripture. Thank you for this sermon!
Tom G Perhaps if you actually read the blog you responded to in apparent agreement, you will see its a critique of Wesley and Arminianism, not supportive of them.
It seems your entire theology & study is just emotion with conclusions not grounded in Scripture but your own whimsical feelings
i was so screwed up by teachers like mcarthur,sproul, and other calvinists like howard camping. what a relief to break away from calvinistic doctrines. even christ didnt preach tulip, he preached whosoever, there are so many eras in calvin, the murderer he was. .problem is perfectionists or well payed preachers are afraid to trust god so they trust in a man made doctrine. some angry folk these calvinistic worm theology laciviousness teachers
“ Great Sermon! ” Very touched by this sermon. We are getting closer all the time to persecution in North America. This sermon is very encouraging to be ready
