Dramatic Scripture Recitation
- This is really good. Hebrews 9 and 10 are quoted in a dramatic fashion. It really brings home the glorious message of the Gospel so central to that passage, and indeed all of Scripture. The video clip is long (11 min.), but if you are able, it is well worth watching.
On the “A B C”s of Fundamentalism
- I earlier mentioned Joel Tetreau’s posts at Sharper Iron regarding his classification of fundamentalism. So I thought I should point you to a good simplification of Joel’s system by Michael Riley of Nescio Latinitatem.
- Joel’s articles were not well received generally at Sharper Iron. While at times Joel may have been using a wide brush, he painted some stark realities in fundamentalism. Such ugliness is better left under the carpet it seems. Seriously, I thought his criticisms were valid, but not as precisely stated as possible. For the record, I pretty much agree with his taxonomy, but it is inadequate. Maybe I’ll try to come up with my own, someday.
More on Fundamentalism
- Ryan DeBarr gives a thoughtful post on the occasion of people connected to Emmanuel Baptist Theological Seminary (a notable KJV/TR only school) calling for a separation from fundamentalism (from Sharper Iron varieties as well as from Hylesism). Ryan agrees with some of their criticisms of fundamentalism, but points out some errors in their own approach. It is interesting reading for those interested in fundamentalism.
On Dealing with Differences
- Thabiti Anyabwile has a great post entitled “How to Deal with Those Who Differ from Us”. It is worth reading, particularly if you ever get into any blog disputes. By the way, I have just started reading Thabiti Anyabwile’s blog Pure Church, and it is really good.
On the Danger of (some) TV Preachers
- Thabiti Anyabwile has some excellent thoughts concerning TV preachers (HT: Zach Nielsen). I am tempted to quote from this post, but let me just encourage you to go read it!
- Along these lines, a couple video clips have been posted on big name TV preachers which effectively illustrate Thabiti’s point.
More on Holy Hip Hop
- I know I have talked about this topic quite a bit lately (here, and here), but I wanted to just highlight one more link.
- Justin Taylor highlights another doctrinally sound, gospel exalting, God glorifying Christian hip hop group: CHRISTCENTRIC.
On Christ Centered Preaching
- Captain Headknowledge has some great reflections on Christ centered preaching.
- And Angelz follows up with more thoughts on just a few sentences from the Captain’s post.

Ryan,
So sorry! I was working nights and had very little sleep prior to my shift. That’s my only excuse.
God bless,
Bob
