    A Few Thoughts on the Hatmaker Position on LGBTQ

    Sean McDowell — 

    For a variety of reasons, I rarely respond publicly to other Christians. But in this case, I feel compelled to do so. Last week, in an effort to be compassionate and loving, popular Christian author Jen Hatmaker came out in support of LGBT relationships, referring to them as “holy.” While other Christian influencers have come out in favor of affirming theology, this caught my attention because my wife has personally benefited greatly from her books. In fact, she has even read out loud to me some particularly funny and insightful portions from one of Jen book.

    Dar gracias en todo

    Octavio Esqueda — 

    En los prĂłximos dĂ­as terminarĂĄ la campaña electoral para elegir al nuevo presidente de los Estados Unidos. Puede ser que cuando lea estas lĂ­neas estemos a pocas horas de las elecciones o quizĂĄ las votaciones ya hayan terminado. Independientemente del que resulte ganador, los Ășltimos meses han sido muy pesados y el ambiente social demasiado tenso en todos los sentidos. Expresiones de desaliento, frustraciĂłn o hartazgo se convirtieron en el comĂșn denominador para muchas personas que ven con alivio el fin de la larga carrera presidencial.

    Why We Should Stop Using The Message

    Kenneth Berding — 

    It time we stopped reading, buying, and recommending The Message. We who hold to a high view of Scripture—that the Bible is the very word of God, inspired by God, inerrant in all it affirms—need to carefully reconsider our use of The Message. There actually wouldn’t be a problem at all if The Message were sold and treated as an interpretation of the Bible, or an expansive reading of the Bible. But as long as The Message continues to be marketed and used by preachers and teachers as a Bible translation, it is imperative that we ask the question of whether it is an accurate translation or not. I believe that the answer to this question is: The Message is not an accurate translation of what the original authors wrote.
