The Greatest Apologetic?

Posted on November 16, 2013 Written by Mark McIntyre 6 Comments

Greatest Apologetic

Worshipping a God without limits

While we can often only see the limits, we are called to see beyond them. Why? Because we worship and serve a limitless God.

Division

Four reasons for division in the church

In a previous post, I outlined the problem of division in the church. Today I seek to discuss the reasons why it takes place. I can think of four reasons why church leaders cause division over non-essentials: pride, misunderstanding, insecurity and idolatry.

Before you speak

We have all said things which cause us to wish for a rewind button. My hope in sharing these questions is that by applying them consistently we might increase the time between statements that we later regret.

Question 9

What is creation?

It is probable that most people that read this question in the catechism in 2016 zoom in on the words “in six days.” So let me say from the beginning that it is OK for believers to disagree on how the word day should be interpreted. Some hold to a literal 24 hour day and others think day represents a much longer period of time.

Selective grace in the church

We all want grace, but sometimes struggle to give it when it is most needed. We are in constant danger of offering selective grace by offering it to some and withholding it from others.
