The Wolfe Unsettling the Flock
I’ll be honest every time I think this whole Stephen Wolfe The Case for Christian Nationalism thing has died down I keep finding the praise or vilifications steaming away like the express is running late.

A Rant
I’ll just concede on the front end, this is a rant and there will be nothing theological in it.

I have gone down the Daily Wire/The Blaze, and a few other similar style podcast rabbit holeContinue reading “A Rant”

Trickle Down Theology
Introduction Back in my days of Semi-Pelagianism I was repulsed by the arrogant attitude of the first “Calvinists” I met embodied in a group of Primitive Baptists. I will never forget the smug smirk on the face of one as we debated the issue. I raised several of the basic objections and verses to support,Continue reading “Trickle Down Theology”
