I bet 99% of police officers would give the same advice. It seems like sound wisdom. Why dunk on someone trying to help your child avoid being stolen from?
I had never heard of Doug Wilson until I saw someone call him a racist and pedophile enabler, so I looked him up and two years later he is my favorite theologian.
These people never learn.

Moral consensus means nothing. Abortion is murder regardless of how far along the child is. I don’t care what other people say, it’s about what our ultimate judge says: God. We are incurring the wrath of a holy God and must REPENT.
@femturnedwife
Perhaps this is TMI… but when I watched my wife birth our son at home, I distinctly remember thinking: “This was God’s true purpose when he designed the vagina. It’s main purpose is not to bring enjoyment to a husband (though that is a significant part); it’s main utility is to
@hillbillythings
It does happen btw. I don’t want to share the details publicly, but I was very close to a situation in which a Christian leader was caught in an affair. The wife decided to work through it. The elders stayed very involved. The whole church knew what happened and we covered them
A few names bear mentioning, at least: Andrew Torba, Andrew Isker, Stephen Wolfe, and William Wolfe, with honorable mentions to Rhett Copple, AD Robles, Nate Fischer, Josh Abbatoy, Aaron Renn, and maybe tangentially Joel Webbon, Jon Harris, and Doug Wilson/Canon Press.

Doug Wilson’s Fidelity book is a great start in this conversation. He does a good job of explaining why there shouldn’t be any “kink” in your sexual encounters with your spouse.
@Phil_Johnson_
Why are antisemites beyond the pale for you? Why not present this to them and use it to instruct? It seems like these guys are young, sincere, passionate Christians. Why dunk on them to get points with those who already hold your view?
@Brian_Sauve
Definitely Calvinism. Came to that conclusion in high school just from reading the Bible. I was raised free will and a lot of my influences were free will, but the Scriptures are crystal clear on it.
@Col_A_Buendia
My woke seminary professor told me that this is strictly metaphorical and Jonah did not indeed die in the fish.
So your assessment is correct.

Our story sounds eerily similar. Lol. My wife was into rock climbing at 20. Became a mom at 23. Starting a garden at 30 (not as hardcore). About to have our 4th child. And I've had a debilitating chronic illness for 6 years. Praise the Lord for godly women.

You’re missing the point that you’re suppressing the truth. Open your eyes: watch the sunrise, look at the breeze on the leaves, observe the stars. God made it all. Repent and believe in the name of Jesus Christ.

I see a ton of stories like this in Australia and the UK. Even though we’re having unmitigated immigration, there are far less of these stories in the US. The obvious reason? More guns in the hands of good people.

Our pastors are not bold prophets. They go along to get along. They have lost the vision of leading God’s people and have taken pleasure in being our weekend entertainers.

I got it...
Say that once cultural Christianity is reestablished, he will convert to Christianity because he's a rightwing shill and will play to what the crowd wants.
The pastor at fault here, John Lindell, was my pastor for a short season. I went to their church (James River - West Campus). I also went to this very conference 6 years ago.
James River is an Assemblies of God church located in the same city as the national AG headquarters
NEW: Pastor Mark Driscoll gets kicked off stage at a men’s conference after he calls out pastor John Lindell for allowing a demonstration from a male stripper.

It wasn’t until the end of the thread that I realized the author was thinking they found some nefarious inner workings. I was just reading like “oh cool, this is how I came to hear about the venerable D-Wils”

I was just at my uncle’s house this past weekend. He’s a red-blooded American patriot with a couple dogs and a chicken coup. He’s a mechanic and stays fit. Not a reader - certainly not into theology.
He was talking through certain upgrades he wants to make to the house. He
It’s my 30th birthday today and I’m thankful to God for every day. I woke up to cards written by my wife and kids. I made a lot of mistakes in my 20’s, but I’m glad I spent it building a family with my wife. Here’s to the next 10 years!
As a Christian man, I would not have the same reaction. I would strongly urge my son to reconsider.
I would still love and pray for her. I would still rejoice in God’s redemption in her life.
I did say she's worth more than 1000 rubies. True.
How would I feel if my son brought home a repentant and redeemed ex-OnlyFans model?
Overjoyed.
Ecstatic.
Thanking God that my son found a woman to whom Christ has shown great mercy.
I would do all I could to make her feel

Have you differentiated classical Christian schools from other private/religious schools? I believe they outperform homeschoolers.

I went with a couple clients and once the food came the talking stopped. Best fried chicken I’ve ever had. To be fair, I am from California, so my bar is a little lower.
In the wake of the Tucker interview, I have gotten some good questions on "bottom-up reformation" versus a "judicious use of power." I will be addressing that one, and a number of others, on Monday. In the meantime, think more both/and than either/or. That should tide you over.

I’m confused. Ramen is cheap? Just get some basic ramen and do egg drop soup. All in for our family is like less than 10 bucks. Some sriracha sauce at the end is all the flavor you need. You adding a bunch of fixins?
