Phil Johnson at PyroManiac posts on labels.

Labels are an easy way to sum up a position or teaching/doctrine and I typically don’t have a problem using them. However, labels can easily get away from you (i.e. divisions within divisions and sub-divisions of those divisions, etc etc…). The subjective nature of some labels can cause problems as well. So though labels can be used to save time, they can also become counter productive.

Bobby at Mixed BAG posts two good articles on the Atonement. You can read those here and here.

I have been meaning to post on this subject but, as always, the time I have to post has been extremely limited. I did post some thoughts (comments) on his entries though.

David Wayne at JollyBlogger posts on reformed eschatology.

There is some good discussion taking place in the comments section of the above post. I think I can sum up my current position by using some of the comments already made there.

David Wayne - As a result my eschatalogy is pretty much limited to “Christ will return to judge the living and the dead.”

BlackCalvinist - In any case, I never make eschatology a major issue anymore….as long as you’re not a full preterist (then you’re a heretic and an unbeliever, IMO) or one of the rabid dispy folks (i.e. - Peter and Paul Lalonde, John Hagee and others).

Steve Camp at CampOnThis posts on how Paul confronted a pagan culture - preaching Jesus Christ and Him crucified.

Steve is notorious for posting lists of things. Fortunately, those lists usually include Scripture and/or may be almost entirely composed of Scripture.

That’s it for now.
