About Me

My photo
I am a born-again Christian, who is Reformed, but also charismatic, spiritually speaking. (I do not speak in tongues, but I believe glossalalia is a bona fide gift not given to all, and not as great as prophecy, for example.) I have several years of college education but only completed a two-year degree. I was raised Lutheran and confirmed, but I didn't "find Christ" until I was in the Army and responded to a Billy Graham crusade in 1973. I was mentored or discipled by the Navigators in the army and upon discharge joined several evangelical, Bible-teaching churches. I was baptized as an infant, but believe in believer baptism, of which I was a partaker after my conversion experience. I believe in the "5 Onlys" of the reformation: sola fide (faith alone); sola Scriptura (Scripture alone); soli Christo (Christ alone), sola gratia (grace alone), and soli Deo gloria (to God alone be the glory). I affirm TULIP as defended in the Reformation.. I affirm most of The Westminster Confession of Faith, especially pertaining to Providence.

What To Tell An Atheist Troll

 One day you will learn as every human being will, that Jesus Christ is Lord of all. There are those of us who willingly bend the knee now because of what we know He has done for us. And I guess there will be people such as yourself who will bend the knee when He reveals His true nature and self - but for those, it will be too late.

The burden of proof remains the responsibility of each person as they go through this life. Each person needs to be convinced in their own minds, and it is up to them to work that out for themselves. As my wife says, she thinks more faith is required to not believe in God than what is actually required to believe in God. But again, that’s up to each and every individual.

As the apostle Paul says in Romans 14:11-12, “For it is written, As I live, saith the Lord, every knee shall bow to me, and every tongue shall confess to God. [12] So then every one of us shall give an account of himself to God.”.

When that day comes for you, do not even try to say, I didn’t know - because you have been told. No excuses from you, yes?!? 🤔
