It just recently occurred to me through a comment by a sister on another blog. The sheep are shepherding themselves. To peruse the Christian blogosphere, by and large (there are some notable exceptions) the ones blowing the trumpet and warning the flock of danger are the uncredentialed, unordained but Holy Spirit- sensitized sheep. The big name shepherds [...]

There is a point of no return for believers when getting involved too heavily in matters of life in this world, especially where other people=s money is involved, or you have committed large amounts of other resources, like time and energy in things or opportunities, that you consider worthwhile. It is at these points, [...]

Definition of PACIFIST 2: strongly and actively opposed to conflict and especially war Does that definition describe Jesus? No! Although He never engaged in or even defended Himself against violence, and charged His followers to do the same, He did not strongly and actively oppose conflict or war by unbelieving nations or people. On the contrary the Bible [...]

by glennchristopherson I’m not sure if it’s a recent phenomena, but I keep coming across Christians with “opinions”. And often I find when I give a scriptural backing to my argument on some topic, someone will say, “That’s just your opinion” Now opinions can be ok in certain contexts, football teams, weather, holiday [...]

I belong to a club of bass fishermen. In that club, there are some good and talented anglers. We all make a display of talent, even if we have only modest ability, and boast among ourselves about trophy catches, but at the end of the day it is the Kevin Van Dam=s and the [...]

Here is an article with a video at the end which I came across while perusing the internet looking for information to add to a database I am trying to develop of the Emerging Church and its leaders. The article is very well written and is a first hand account of the 2009 National Pastors [...]

by glennchristopherson I don’t have a doctorate in theology. I don’t even know how to spell PhD. In fact it seems to me too many theologians spend their time inventing $10 words to promote 2 bob heresies. But I do read the Bible and I do take notice of what’s happening in church circles around [...]

by glennchristopherson Friends of mine have recently been stood down from ministry. Their crime: doing a good deed without the pastors permission. This is one more example of the tsunami of Nicolaitan nonsense which is engulfing the institutional church. In case you need reminding, the Nicolaitan heresy was exposed and rejected several times by [...]

I have written repeatedly in the past about how the end-time delusion, predicted in the Bible, is no longer a prediction, but a reality. Lighthouse Trails has been a valuable source of documented evidence, warning those who are concerned about the dismal failure of organized Christianity, spreading the light of truth in print and [...]
