by glennchristopherson Let me fly my colours straight up. I would rather be unchurched and saved, than churched and unsaved. This concept of targeting the unchurched has its modern manifestation beginnings with the “seeker friendly” movement, but it’s really just a rehashing of the ancient Papal heresy of, “there is no salvation outside the church.” […]

by glennchristopherson Two news stories in recent days caught my attention. The first reported that the Education Department (Australia) has decided in their new curriculum to remove the dating reference points BC (Before Christ) and AD (Anno Domini, ie in the year of our Lord) and replace them with BCE (Before Common Era) and CE (Common Era) The cultural vandals […]
by glennchristopherson I know a lot of nice people and some of them are Christians. But somehow some of God’s people have been convinced that niceness is the name of the game…well it’s not.

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 […]
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 […]
