April 18 at 8:57 PM · I know some preachers will probably say, “Don’t use the word ‘doctrine.’ People are turned off by doctrine.” To those preachers doctrine and theology are unimportant. They want to give sermons on man’s needs, rather than doctrine. So we don’t hear very many sermons on the doctrine of soteriology, or on the doctrine of predestination, or the doctrine of reprobation, or the doctrine of demonology, or the doctrine of ecclesiology, or any other theological doctrine. Most sermons today have thus become man-centered rather than God-centered and theology-centered…..most preachers today start out thinking about man’s needs – instead of thinking about the doctrines and theological truths in the Scriptures. Here are some modern sermon titles that illustrate this “man-centered” approach to preaching. These are actual titles: “Taking Responsibility for Your Life,” “Staying in Love,” “Cure for the Common Life,” “God Thinks You’re Wonderful,” “So Long, Insecurity,” “Balanced Living,” “Start Losing, Start Living,” “Becoming a Better You,” “Live Your Best Life Now,” “Discovering Your Identity,” “Managing Your Moods.” And here’s one that says it all, “Laugh Your Way to a Better Marriage.” I’m not saying that there isn’t anything helpful in these messages. There probably is. I’m saying that the very titles show how man’s needs, rather than Bible doctrines and Bible theology, are at the center of most sermons today. – R. L. Hymers

April 19 at 8:18 PM · WE HAD MEN OF GOD THAT WE WERE LITERALLY AFRAID OF…there were men that struck fear in our soul because we knew that they could see our wicked heart…..Like Samuel of old, we wanted to know, “Are you here in judgement?”. Oh for days when preachers struck awe in the heart of God’s people and especially sinners. Nowadays… we strive to be humorous instead of holy. Old-time preachers were obscure and set apart which was part of their appeal. We always wondered and rarely ever found out what they were like in their private lives. – M L Qualls

April 23 at 4:39 PM · “The local Independent Baptist Church was actually known in the community for its standards. The reoccurring theme in our meetings today is about overcoming discouragement and weathering your storms. Although this is a needed subject, we need the bark preached off our hides every now and then. The reason most preachers don’t preach this way any more is because their spandex-wearing wife won’t let ‘em.” – Qualls

I NEED SOME HELP WITH THIS!

Recently someone sent me this: They said, “I’m trying to establish a point that clothing is a moral issue and that it means something.” and “I have friends that see this issue of crossdressing as wrong but not the other way around.” and “If clothing is just all culture and opinion we can’t say anything about it. But if clothing is ordained by God there is much more involved?”Then they said, “When women wear pants they often say that they feel much more comfortable in one but this guy feels the same way. it’s not about our feelings. Did you know that Adam and Eve were alone and wore clothes before there was any other human?”And then they said, It’s not just to cover nakedness but to identify who you are, to give a message. You can recognize a sailor by what they wear, a fireman, a police officer, and so you should be able to identify a man and woman. In fact, it’s on our restroom signs if we just look.”My first thought was, Deuteronomy 22:5 King James Version5 The woman shall not wear that which pertaineth unto a man, neither shall a man put on a woman’s garment: for all that do so are abomination unto the Lord thy God.

May 12 at 5:46 PM · Is this just merely a cultural fad, a preference, a style? Or is it wrong? What is your Biblical basis for your belief?Remember that high heels are not mentioned in the Bible because they all wore sandals back then. Remember that this person is straight, married, has children, and feels more comfortable in his new outfit. He has 100’s, probably thousands, of people who support his right to “be himself”. One person says, “My male partner is also dabbling in wearing skirts at home. His view is nothing separates trousers from a skirt other than a seam, and he says it’s so freeing and comfortable, especially in summer! I love his bravery.”https://www.boredpanda.com/confident-man-wears-heels…/…View insights1 post reachLikeComment

Clinton FaYesterday at 4:52 PM · “Blended worship” is in fact an oxymoron. It isn’t worship. Worship is about God. Blending is about man. The “worship” is “blended” for people. It’s a church growth technique. It’s about the flesh, about comfort and convenience, about acceptance, about a fake kind of unity.It contradicts what is essential about worship. Worship recognizes God and gives Him what He wants. Blended “worship” recognizes people and gives them what they want. You’re always going to be wrong when you start with people in worship. If you are concerned about God, you don’t blend your worship. – Kent BrandenburgIt solves more problems singing about God and His attributes and His faithfulness, etc., rather than singing songs about man’s problems and how we need God to help.

Yesterday at 7:23 AM · “So there was a division among the people because of him.” (John 7:43)Jesus’ preaching caused division. And people say in our day that we shouldn’t divide over the truth.

May 14 at 5:02 PM · The post I made the other day including the image of the man in a skirt had an article attached to it. It mentions how he wants to challenge gender stereotypes, especially in clothing. Its the same thing the anti-Bible feminists have done from the 1850’s onward. They challenged gender stereotypes as well and were quite successful after a few decades.

From J. Vernon McGee, the well known pastor behind the famed Thru the Bible:Many years ago in Tennessee a young lady went to her pastor with the question, “Do you think it is wrong for a Christian to dance?” He said to her, “Anywhere you can take Jesus Christ with you is all right to go.” That made her angry. She said, “Well, I can take Him to the dance.” The pastor said, “Then go ahead.” So she went to the dance. A boy whom she had not met before cut in on her and danced with her. She had determined to take Jesus Christ with her, so she asked him, “Are you a Christian?” He said, “No.” Wanting to make conversation with her, he asked, “Are you a Christian?” She said, “Yes.” And this is what the unbeliever said, “Then what are you doing here?” After she got home that night she decided that maybe she couldn’t take the Lord Jesus Christ there after all.J. Vernon McGee, Thru the Bible Commentary: The Epistles – Romans 14
