Get These (Gospel Coalition) Booklets
March 11, 2011Yesterday, I took advantage of the great deal by Westminster Bookstore that had all eight of the new Gospel Coalition booklets for the sale price of only $17.00 (45% off).

The idea that a conscious creature should have to undergo physical and mental torture through unending time is profoundly [...]
“Closet Universalists”
March 2, 2011* Updated 03.02.2011 One of the things that the Rob Bell saga is doing is shining the light on the encroachment of universalism in the sphere of biblical orthodoxy. I have no idea whether Rob Bell is a universalist or not, but my guess is if he is, then universalism will de facto become a [...]
