pc81 Healing in the Bible We investigate what is a sane and biblical outlook towards healing in the Bible, a non-Pentecostal view. We look at Hezekiah's case, the 10 Lepers healed by Jesus. God totally controls sickness.
Job 5:18 For he maketh sore, and bindeth up: he woundeth, and his hands make whole.
Deuteronomy 32:39 See now that I, even I, am he, and there is no god with me: I kill, and I make alive; I wound, and I heal: neither is there any that can deliver out of my hand.
Micah 6:13 Therefore also will I make thee sick in smiting thee, in making thee desolate because of thy sins. God makes us sick because of our sins.
Sin is the first cause and last curse involved in sickness.
We examine cases of God healing, and exhortations to pray over the sick.

The Lifeblood of the Church is Evangelism is a post explaining how essential evangelism is in the life of Christ's church.

Preaching to Offend no One is an article about frankness in preaching and preaching on things that need to be addressed, but many preachers shy away from these.
Topics: Comments on Brandon Cox's Article | What is the real problem? | A Profile of a Professional Man of God Preacher | Cowards are not going to make it to heaven. | Greed is the Tail that Wags the Dog | Balance
Excerpt: A good professional will do his job, however it inconveniences the people he touches. This is how a preacher who is a man of God will work. He tells his people the truth. Explaining the truth, so everybody understands it, he then motivates them to change their lives. A good preacher obeys God explicitly as much as he understands what God wants.
Preaching is like going to your doctor. A superb doctor examines you, does tests on you, and then he has a summary visit with you where he tells you all the things wrong with you, and how you need to 1) lose weight, 2) stop eating red meat, 3) get more exercise (or begin to exercise because you don't look like you have worked up a sweat since a cop pulled you over for speeding), etc. He tells you the truth, no matter how "offensive" it is.

Introduction to Francis Turretin’s 21 Questions on The Doctrine of Scripture
by Paul Rittman
Reading Reformed works on Scripture (here I would group Calvin’s Institutes, William Whitaker’s Disputations on the Holy Scriptures, as well as Turretin) can be very illuminating, and presents a rather different perspective on Scripture than many modern writers (1). While this article is providing a brief introduction to Turretin, what I’m saying below could just as well be said of the others mentioned above. Read more
