Really Right

“If I profess with the loudest voice and clearest exposition every portion of the truth of God except that little point which the world and the Devil are at that moment attacking, I am not confessing Christ, however boldly I may be professing Christ. Where the battle rages, there the loyalty of the soldier is proved, and to be steady on all the battlefield besides is mere flight and disgrace if he flinches at that point.” — Martin Luther

Folks, the short version is this: the phrase “seven years” is never mentioned in the New Testament. Not ever. Never once. But somehow, it’s a doctrine in the minds of most modern evangelicals. Ditto for lots of other proclaimed doctrines. Amongst these are: A rebuilt temple in Jerusalem—never mentioned in the New Testament. Jesus said…

    Whose World is This Anyway?

    ,

    Last night, the Thursday night Bible study was yet another doozie. Folks, this group is so hung up on Premillennial Dispensationalism that it’s disgusting. First, they know that I disagree with them on eschatology; therefore, lots of prayers were offered that the Holy Spirit reveal the Truth to them by fiat. Intense study of the…

  • Folks, this blog may make you want to throw bleach over your eyes. It’s that bad. Jeffrey Pribble, a varsity football coach and teacher at Tracy High School, was arrested last week after police said his cell phone was found recording students in the boys’ locker room. Pribble, who began coaching at Tracy High School…

  • There is a lot of talk lately about Senator John Fetterman of Pennsylvania switching parties to the GOP.  This is because he has shown strong support for Israel.  Make no mistake about it, Fetterman votes with democrats 90% of the time.  Yet there is serious talk of a primary challenge in 2 years.  My advice? …

  • Yep, it came up at the Bible study last night that I don’t believe in Scofield’s theological system. People were shocked. We keep reading in the Minor Prophets about the “Day of the Lord” and I asserted that in most cases the day of the Lord is history not a near coming, future event. The…

  • In case you missed it, a horrible, terrible, no-good human being assumed room temperature this past weekend.  Iran’s Supreme Ayatollah Ali Khamenei was killed.  Dead, like a door nail!  The strikes were coordinated with Israel in a much broader sense, it’s a full-on war in Iran in my humble opinion. I’ll touch more on the…

  • I know that Dispensationalists frequently miss the mark on biblical theology. They like to beat the strawman of “Replacement Theology” when they are the only ones that teach a form of it. They switch out the Old Testament Jews with the Church in the mythical (mythical because it doesn’t really exist) Eschatological Parenthesis of the…

  • Noticed the price of fast food lately?  Wonder why it is so expensive?  Wonder what happened to portion sizes?  Wonder why Chili’s and Applebee’s can sling a cheaper meal and they are full service? Well strap in, it’s going to be a rough ride! While this blog is mostly based out of California, I am…

  • Before you ask why I am praising this merry band of whackos, maybe ask yourself the same question.  Folks, politics have taken a wild turn in the last 12 years.  Actually, make it 20 years!  The Tea Party started all of this with the rise of “Republican” political types who simply voted NO on everything……

  • Folks, a bedrock belief of the Scofield Reference Bible is Zionism. Scofield taught that Jesus offered the Kingdom of God to the Jews. The First Century Jews rejected it, and God went to Plan B, the Church. Sometime in the future, God will remove the Church (via a secret rapture) and then get back to…
