I want to look at this quote (I am referencing this from another thread. These are not Iconoclast's words but part of a larger work he offered for discussion)

. . . instead of being content to stand in the counsel of God, and point sinners to Christ . . .. They, under pretense of extra-liberality, go a step, one awful step further, than the Counsel of God, by offering Christ to all their hearers; and very often, that none may mistake their presumptuous generosity, will then intently urge...

God No One Has Seen At Any Time

“Θεὸν οὐδεὶς ἑώρακεν πώποτε μονογενὴς Θεὸς ὁ ὢν εἰς τὸν κόλπον τοῦ Πατρὸς, ἐκεῖνος ἐξηγήσατο” (John 1:18)

“God no one hath ever seen; the Unique God, who is always close to the Father; He has revealed”

This verse is used by some as “proof”, that Jesus Christ cannot be “God”. It is argued, that John is clear here, that no one has ever seen God. Is this correct?

Reading this verse shows this to be wrong. Here we have in the oldest and best textual evidence,...

Still get the emails from SBC church I used to attend. Today the "deacons and their wives will be distributing communion elements.".
Women distributing communion?
Never heard of this in a fundamental church.

The fact that the 1560 Geneva Bible is better and more accurate than the 1611 edition of the KJV in at least some places would be a serious problem for typical KJV-only reasoning/teaching.

Typical KJV-only reasoning/teaching tends to imply, suggest, or sometimes directly claim that God translated the KJV or that God so controlled the translation decisions of its Church of England makers that its every English word was perfect and inspired and could not be improved. Typical KJV-only...

Recently a PDF file by this title was sent my way. Let's take a fresh look at this work.

To which are added two brief treatises. The One about Invitation, and the other about Exhortation of Sinners to come to Christ; both examined and consistently stated with the Glory of Free Grace, to rectify some Common and Prevailing Mistakes in Ministers, who now with Time, are running in the Present Generation. By Joseph Hussey A Poor Despised Servant of JESUS CHRIST, and Pastor of the Congregational...

What's the purpose of an altar in a Christian sanctuary? We don't offer up sacrifices on it.

Far as I'm concerned, it's a symbol of the Old Covenant or some pagan religions & has no use nor place in a Christian sanctuary, regardless of its denomination.

What do you all think?

Heresy or more akin to being just wrong and mistaken?

On another thread @Iconoclast suggest I offer a poll to determine if my position is understandable.

Here is my position:

Christians can gain from reading the works of men like A.W. Tozer, John Owen, John Knox, John Wesley, etc. I particularly enjoy Spurgeon and Puritian poetry (and I have gained in the reading).

BUT those men are not relevant to Practical Theology, which seeks to address contemporary issues and answer contemporary questions relating to modern circumstances.

The reason...

On another thread SBG raised questions about what has been historically known as the
Free Offer of the Gospel.
Does it exist?
What is it?
Does Election have anything to do with the free offer?
Is the offer sincere?
