In todays blog interview Richard makes it very clear that as far as the UK’s Christian Unions are concerned charismatics (especially from newfrontiers) are welcome but those who question the atonement ought to go elsewhere…… Adrian: It is my pleasure to welcome to my blog today the Director of UCCF in the UK, Richard Cunningham. For my American readers, UCCF is equivalent to your Intervarsity Fellowship Richard, it is a pleasure to welcome you, please can you begin by telling... Read more
Mark L makes some great points out of Peters use of Joel. I think that these passages are indeed fatal to any real cessationist view. For Joel is clear that “all flesh” will receive the Holy Spirit and prophecy in the last days. Peter is clear that he is living in the good of that and that this promise is available for them and their children and 2as many as the lord shall call”. So, call me a simpleton but... Read more
I have just one thing to say to conservative christians who criticise the Narnia film for teaching an alternative theory of the atonement – ITS A STORY, NOT A SEMINARY CLASS We have watched it, and I didnt think about the nuances of the atonement once! The story is a great fantasy story which happens to reflect some aspects of the story of Jesus. One of my children (I think it was Charis) said it was the best film she... Read more

I think that is going to... Read more
Challies has published his Dr. Wayne Grudem interview I will just quote one extract for now to encourage you to go read the rest: I think we have in the twentieth century a historical aberration not essential to Reformed theology that cessationism has become the dominant view. Read more
The internetmonk has been thinking about the fact that people do come to very different conclusions about some issues. I would love to see more gentleness when we discuss theological issues on our blogs – anyone who ever feels that I am not being sufficiently gentle hereby has the right to send me an email telling me so!

John Kpikpi of newfrontiers west Africa joined us on Sunday and preached an excellent sermon on why the church should be multicultural. It is a challenge to many churches, and so it left us very grateful for the wonderful thing that God is doing in us at Jubilee – such a thing happening in many churches really does have the chance of changing the world.

Thanks Pyromaniac for todays dose of Spurgeon wisdom O for a restoration of preaching like this: The system of truth is not one straight line, but two. No man will ever get a right view of the gospel until he knows how to look at the two lines at once. I am taught in one book to believe that what I sow I shall reap: I am taught in another place, that “it is not of him that willeth nor... Read more
