What Does Semper Reformanda Mean? from Ligonier Ministries - Pretty much what the title says; it's an explanation of the historical background for the phrase Semper Reformanda.
Moses Was Not Abraham from The Heidelbog - A good explanation of baptism in regards to the covenants in church history. Namely, between the distinction of the Abrahamic covenant (which became a spiritual one under Christ, but not undone) and the Mosaic covenant (from which we were freed by Christ).
Seven Reasons Why We Should Not Accept Millions of Years from Answers in Genesis - A simple, brief explanation on why taking a position of millions of years is not a biblical one.
If the Quran Is True, Then It’s False from Stand to Reason - A brief discussion on the Quran's teaching regarding Allah's sending down the Law and the Gospel, and how, if the Quran is correct in that Allah sent them down, then it's untrue, as the Quran contradicts the Law and Gospel
What is moral relativism and how can Christians respond? from Coffeehouse Questions - We've all heard people say "That's true for you, but not for me," and similar statements. What's so fallacious about that reasoning, and how do you respond to it? This blog post gives some answers.
New Atheism’s Undead Arguments from Saints and Sceptics - An analysis of Richard Dawkins' argument that God can't exist because the universe is too complex, and that would require a super-complex creator, which is improbable. As the article points out, this philosophical contention has been refuted by theists and atheists, and for good reason.
You’re Not as Dumb as You Think You Are: Five Reasons to Put Down that Devotional and Pick Up the Actual Bible from Michelle Lesley - Ms. Lesley gives encouragement to women on how to get spiritual nutrition, not candy. My wife read this post and was very encouraged by it - and I found it to be on the level, so...
Don't Get Your Theology from the Movies from Michelle Lesley - A brief explanation on why movies can be detrimental to your understanding of theological matters or biblical stories.
Parents Are the First Apologists Your Child Should Ever Meet from Southern By His Grace - A warning to parents that you shouldn't rely on a pastor or the church in general to teach your kids how to handle the conflicts within our culture - it's up to you to prepare them, just as it was commanded in scripture.

This Week in Review - 3/3/2017
Here's another roundup of highlights I found throughout the week.
What Did the Jewish Historian Josephus Really Say About Jesus? from Jonathan Morrow - Good article on the sections of Josephus regarding Christ that scholars dispute. As it turns out, when you remove the questionable parts, it still says a lot about the historicity of Jesus.
Eschatology Comparison from Five Solas - This isn't a cool piece of artwork like a lot of eschatology comparisons are, but it goes into detail about what various groups believe, how they differ, and what variants exist within the individual camps.
Leaving the NAR Church: Sean's story from Pirate Christian - A testimony from South Africa, where the Word of Faith, Prosperity Gospel, New Apostolic Reformation heresies are all thriving. I was reminded of the podcast I did with Kofi over that very subject.
The Cure for a Lack of Fruit in Our Christian Lives from Ligonier Ministries - A simple article discussing salvation, and how we can have an assurance of...well...assurance.
Does the Bible Tell Christians to Judge Not? from Answers in Genesis - A good article that not only refutes the commonly held myth that Jesus said we shouldn't judge anyone ever, but also talks on our own personal need for self-reflection and personal repentance.
Why Christian Kids Leave the Faith by Tim Challies - Obviously from a purely theological standpoint, it would be easy to throw 1 John 2:19 at the problem and call it a day. In a more practical, applicable standpoint, Tim Challies presents four prominent reasons, found in a study, as to why people left the faith, and what we can focus on to prevent, by God's grace and blessings, that such a thing happens to our children. It is definitely something on the minds of Christian parents (including myself).
5 Ways to Help Keep Your Kids From Becoming Secularized Worshipers from Natasha Crain - Guest author Alisa Childers gives some solid advice on how to help integrate your kids into your worship life. This includes living a God-centered worship life in front of them and teaching them to be discerning in what worship songs are actually saying.
