@HunterHindsman …also, SBC may not deny Nicene orthodoxy, but a deferral to adopt what all Christians are already supposed to believe only evidences a corporate confusion beyond measure

[Todd Morikawa @ToddYMorikawa]

@HunterHindsman These are good takes! I do wonder (even though I don’t care all that much haha) if the 91% rate on Saddleback was truly convictional and not more pragmatic. Rick Warren is brash and loud about his egalitarianism so it almost demanded a response…

@jake_stone89 @NHStrength I don’t have a category for this. If you only drink black occasionally, why would you use that occasion to drink dirt?

[Todd Morikawa @ToddYMorikawa]

@TimGebby @HunterHindsman That’s fair- they were the top two

[Todd Morikawa @ToddYMorikawa]

Whoever thinks women pastors and Nicene orthodoxy are matters of doctrinal precision ought not to be a pastor. Those are elementary Christian doctrines

[Todd Morikawa @ToddYMorikawa]

@TimGebby Was he already a Cardinal by that time?

[Todd Morikawa @ToddYMorikawa]

@TimGebby You mean in the AL at the time right? 😉

Amos 3.16: You say, “Do not prophesy against Israel, and do not preach against the house of Isaac.”

Is it possible that Pentecostalism has skewed our understanding prophecy? And perhaps modern evangelicalism our understanding of preaching? They seem eerily similar in Scripture

[Todd Morikawa @ToddYMorikawa]

If a Christian organization debates the Nicene Creed, can that organization be all that important to warrant the amount of attention that people give to it? Not saying get rid of and not saying get out. Just saying it can’t be as important as this site makes it appear

The secret of contentment is not to add to our circumstances but to subtract from our desires

Credo and paedobaptists need to both be more humble and stop saying things like “the other side cannot demonstrate…”

If you can’t see the other side’s arguments it is you who need to study more. All the arguments have been made over 400 years ago. And both sides are strong

[Todd Morikawa @ToddYMorikawa]

If a fellow church in your Baptist association doesn’t want your accountability, that is not biblical associationalism

[Todd Morikawa @ToddYMorikawa]

@jaredcwilson @pastorjgkell Yes and amen!
And, we are not yet married, awaiting the actual marriage supper, at which time we will be perfected. So yes and amen and, sort of? 😂

Heresy is often sung before it's said.

[Todd Morikawa @ToddYMorikawa]

I don’t even care to read what Tom was responding to. This simply deserves a retweet anytime anyone says this 😂

[Todd Morikawa @ToddYMorikawa]

Spoke for 1.5hrs with a liberal pastor today. We disagreed about the nature of Scripture and the atonement, the definition of sin, the reality of the devil, and the exclusivity of Christ. I can confirm- Machen was right! Christianity and Liberalism are 2 different religions

[Todd Morikawa @ToddYMorikawa]

Remember that “able to teach” means much much more than “doesn’t teach heresy”

Please set a high bar for pastors

[Todd Morikawa @ToddYMorikawa]

Seems like no matter what squares I click on for those “I am not a robot” tests, I always pass 🤷🏻‍♂️
