Comments for a nail in His place http://www.anailinhisplace.net Thu, 21 Aug 2008 09:11:00 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.5.1 Comment on The Tuesday Ten by Blake weaks http://www.anailinhisplace.net/2008/03/11/the-tuesday-ten/#comment-1441 Blake weaks Tue, 11 Mar 2008 21:50:07 +0000 http://www.anailinhisplace.net/2008/03/11/the-tuesday-ten/#comment-1441 I was reading the Mohler article listed number 6 and found myself wanting to pull my hair out, until the end. I thought he was propagating the view quoted and expressed through most of his essay until the last two sentences. He makes The Truth clear absolutely. The true and proper gospel is to be in the world but not of the world, a distinction that comes from maintaining a standard, not achieving one by progressive means. It is interesting that a tare looks exactly like a wheat plant until the head is formed. Attempts to pluck the tares before maturity is likely to result in loss of the desirable wheat plants. The personalized, progressive pursuit of religion may sound good and demonstrate the appearance of "spirituality," but when the headship is demonstrated the tares of customized Christianity will be clearly shown. The headship of Christ is indivisible, the same yesterday, today, and forever. God does not offer lets make a deal; he says this is the deal. Without Christ, Christianity is a feel good trip, possessing a form of godliness denying the power thereof, straight to hell.

You have a very nice looking site. I can tell you put a lot of thought into the layout. Looks great on Firefox. If it looks equally good on IE then I'm really impressed.
