Paul Washer

In my opinion one of the best sermons I have ever heard.

Calvin for Breakfast

~ God preordained, for his own glory and the display of His attributes of mercy and justice, a part of the human race, without any merit of their own, to eternal salvation, and another part, in just punishment of their sin, to eternal damnation. ~

~ A dog barks when his master is attacked. I would be a coward if I saw that God's truth is attacked and yet would remain silent. ~

~ Man's mind is like a store of idolatry and superstition; so much so that if a man believes his own mind it is certain that he will forsake God and forge some idol in his own brain. ~

~ Every one of us is, even from his mother's womb, a master craftsman of idols. ~

Martin Luther Quote

“If you are a preacher of grace, then preach a true and not a fictitious grace; if grace is true, you must bear a true and not a fictitious sin. God does not save people who are only fictitious sinners. Be a sinner and sin boldly,  but believe and rejoice in Christ even more boldly, for he is victorious over sin, death, and the world. As long as we are here [in this world]  we have to sin. This life is not the dwelling place of righteousness,  but, as Peter says,  we look for new heavens and a new earth in which righteousness dwells. It is enough that by the riches of God’s glory we have come to know the Lamb that takes away the sin of the world.  No sin will separate us from the Lamb, even though we commit fornication and murder a thousand times a day. Do you think that the purchase price that was paid for the redemption of our sins by so great a Lamb is too small? Pray boldly—you too are a mighty sinner.”

What is that over in the weeds? 5/18

It's an AMISH AMBUSH!!!

1. Steve Hayes over at Triablogue asks why the Catholic layman is left out to dry by their leadership over and over again?

"When will Catholic laymen ever learn? How often do they have to have the ground cut out from under them by their own leadership before they wise up? If you keep marching into battle while your commanders are retreating from the battlefield, isn’t it time to cashier your generals? Why stand up for Catholic teachings when your teachers refuse to stand behind you? If they don’t stand behind what they teach, by their deeds as well as their words, then what use are they?"

2. Lawrence Welk skit on SNL


3. The Sacred Sandwich gives us obscure preachers in history.

4. Calvinist rap? Well done.
