The Real Turretin on: The Absurdities of Universal Atonement
Moses Cho at No Mo’ Condemnation has a nice quotation from the real Francis Turretin on the absurdities of any doctrine of universal atonement (link). Turretin addresses not only the errors of Arminianism, but also those Amyraldianism with this short identification of four absurdities. To God be the Glory!

Machina, Ora Pro Nobis?
If this “worked,” which (of course) it doesn’t, it would be simony (link). It’s yet another example of life being stranger than fiction. -TurretinFan To God be the Glory!

Archbishop Raymond Burke and Priorities
This article (link) suggests that Archbishop Raymond Burke knows where his priorities lie. Previously, according to the article: “In his remarks, Burke told Terry that American parishioners should press U.S. bishops to withhold the sacrament. ‘It is weakening the faith of everyone,’ Burke said.” Now, according to the article, “‘If I had known what the…

Albrecht vs. Augustine on the Bodily Presence – Further Rebuttal
William Albrecht has responded to a short video (technically it is just audio plus a slideshow) series I did demonstrating the obvious fact that Augustine did not believe that Jesus is bodily present with us today, although the divine presence of Jesus is with us (clip 1 / clip 2)(Albrecht’s Response – part 1a, 1b,…

Groves / Sarna to be Cut Down
In a ridiculous mess, pagans in India are complaining about the fact that the Bible commands believers to destroy the places of false worship (link). The errors in the article and in the pagan reaction are legion: 1. The article notes that the translation is “Protestant” and claims that the translation is faulty. This is…

Virtuosity – Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov – Yuja Wang
I was amazed at the skill exhibited in this very short performance of the “Flight of the Bumblebee” arranged for the piano. Yuja Wang is the pianist. [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8alxBofd_eQ&color1=0xb1b1b1&color2=0xcfcfcf&feature=player_embedded&fs=1] The musical gifts that God has given to some people are simply amazing.
