Ask RC: Is it right to tell my child that Jesus loves them?
How would you answer this question? and why?
What about “theistic evolution”?
“Under the banner of “theistic evolution,” a growing number of Christians maintain that God used evolution as his method for creation. This, in my estimation, is the worst of all possibilities.”

Ron Armstrong takes Down Sermon on Predestination
This blog is a followup to a previous entry. So there was a 7 part sermon series at Cornerstone Community Church in Wildomar, CA. The video from each sermon went up on Vimeo. Unfortunately, after James White started to critique Armstrong’s denial of predestination, sermon #4 mysteriously disappeared.
#1 Faith in Your New Life
#2 Grace
#3 Humor in the Church
#4 Predestination <=== Click to see if it works!
#5 Sexual Sin
#6 Dating
#7 Faith vs. Works
If you see what I saw it will look something like this. Sermons 1 through 3 work fine, sermon 4 returns the following message
and then sermons 5 through 7 play like normal. I ask you, it is any coincidence that a sermon which had been live on Vimeo for 2 years just disappears the day after Dr. White begins to pick it apart while the other 6 in the series remain live and watchable? I don’t believe so. It would seem that Pastor Ron Armstrong does not want his denial of the biblical teaching of predestination to be exposed.
