Husbands must actively erode their own selfishness by daily putting the needs of their wives above their own desires.

"Every pastor is a theologian. The Word of God is so deep, so rich, so expansive over all of existence and history that it requires diligent study and precise exegesis." —Abner Chou

[Justin Peters @JustinPetersMin]

It is hard to imagine GTY without Phil Johnson. John MacArthur had no more loyal friend, no more effective advocate, and no more selfless defender than he.

Phil is an excellent preacher and expositor himself. His preaching and devotion to Truth has had an immeasurable impact upon my life and the lives of countless others. It is a privilege to count Phil as a dear friend. I thank God for him.

If you’re a Southern Baptist, you know Lifeway introduced so many books with horrible theology. This is on Henry Blackaby’s book. Justin does an excellent job in pointing to the errors in it.

Hearing From Heaven: How to Know the Voice of God — Justin Peters

On Gnosticism and Experiencing God, which was heavily promoted by Lifeway.

So if you are someone who gets dreams and visions and you hear still, small voices, and God speaks to you maybe even audibly, you’re a have. But if you’re one of these poor souls and all you have is the Bible and you’re indwelt by the Holy Spirit of God, well, then you’re just a have not. You’re just not as spiritual. You just don’t have the same nearness with God as the haves do. This is Gnosticism.

I would submit to you that the resource, the book that is singularly most responsible for introducing charismatic theology into at least theoretically non-charismatic churches is Experiencing God by Henry Blackaby that came out in 1991. If you go back before 1991, at least in non-charismatic churches, almost everyone would have understood that God speaks to us through the Bible, we speak to Him in prayer. Today hardly anybody understands that; and I believe experiencing God is singularly most responsible for introducing these notions into non-charismatic churches.

Experiencing God, Henry Blackaby says this: “If you have troubling hearing God speak, you are in trouble at the very heart of your Christian experience.” So this is very, very important, “You should be hearing God speak to you regularly, and if you don’t then you’re in trouble at the very heart of your Christian experience.”Now I’m going to show you a videoclip of a man named Sid Roth, and I want to offer you a disclaimer before I do. I just want you to brace yourself, because what you’re about to see is one of the most disturbing, one of the most shocking videos that I’ve ever come across – and that’s saying a lot given what I spend a lot of time in study. But this is shocking.

But I want to show you just how far this can go. Okay, watch this from Sid Roth. His television show entitled It’s Supernatural that appears on TBN. Watch this. “ Hello, Sid Roth here. Welcome to my world where it’s naturally supernatural. I have read of the great men and women of faith. One in particular intrigues me so much. His name: Smith Wigglesworth. He had some of the most outrageous miracles I ever heard of in my life. Let me give you one example.“Some parents had a two-month-old baby dying in the hospital. The parents kidnapped the child, took the child to a Smith Wigglesworth meeting; and Smith looks at the child, looks at the parents, and said, ‘Can I do what God tells me to do?’ Well, what would you do if you were the parent? The child’s dying anyway, right? He takes the baby, two-month-old, throws the baby against a wall – the baby. Then the baby’s on the floor. Have you ever seen someone play soccer? Have you ever seen them kick a soccer ball? He does that with the baby. The baby falls into the congregation. No crying. Is it dead? One hundred percent healed, no crying.” [Video ends]Is that not shocking?

Friends, this went out on worldwide television. And lest you think that, “Oh, nobody would believe that,” the very fact that they put it on worldwide television is self-evident proof that people do believe this. And let’s keep in mind that one of the charismatic mantras is this: “Well, what God does for one, He’ll do for you.” And people are sitting at home and they’re watching this, and these people, they claim to hear from God. And a person’s sitting at home and he’s thinking, “Wow, well God told Smith Wigglesworth to throw a sick baby against a wall. My kid’s sick. My neighbor’s kid is sick. What God does for one, He’ll do for you.”

I know how @valvesoftware could motivate most gamers to purchase a Steam Machine - in spite of the high price. Just include Half Life 3 at launch, and make it the only way to purchase the game! (Of course, that would require them to finally deal with that cliffhanger in HL2.)

@Redleg_92 @MikeWingerii Thank you for the suggestion for ESV! I love Literal Word, but missed having the audio option. Now I have the best of both worlds.

[Cameron Pickford @cameronpickford]

@MikeWingerii Literal Word is the best - just NAS95, LSB, ESV & KJV - and also links to original languages with a concordance. But, sadly, it does not have an audio feature.

@JocelynBenson Please, you couldn't even face Chris Swanson with 2 months' notice. How can you claim to "stand up for people" when you can't be bothered to show up?

[Michigan Forward @MIForward_Net]

There isn’t a better illustration of @JocelynBenson than that empty chair.

If she can’t be bother to show up and debate @swanson4mi, why would she bother showing up for Michigan?
