I had a friend that posted some issues they had with Christianity, and I thought I’d share my take on those issues. I suppose this blog post can go along with that old article I once wrote for Cracked.com when I still visited that site. You can find that old article here.
What is paedobaptism?
It is the belief that baptism should be performed not only for believers (credobaptism), but also of the children of the believing family, specifically infants.

This gets asked time and again. “Free will” here doesn’t refer to the power of choice (also called Creaturely/Compatibilist Free Will — CFW), such as choosing what you want to eat, or wear, or which movie to watch, etc. The Reformed position believes in Creaturely/Compatibilist Free Will (aka, all humanity has the power of choice).
What we will be discussing is Libertarian Free Will (LFW — by the way, this has nothing to do with the Libertarian political ideology/political party). LFW means that not only can we make choices (CFW), but we also have a choice in our own salvation. To the questions below, someone believing in LFW would answer ‘yes’, while someone believing in CFW would answer ‘no’:
“Does humankind have the power to freely choose to submit/obey/pursue God?
Can humankind freely choose to be saved by Christ on their own?”
These are the correct questions to ask when the layman speaks of “free will”, and it’s these same questions that we will be looking at today in Scripture.

1) Do you know the size of the ship?
Genesis 6:15
“And this is how you shall make it: The length of the ark shall be three hundred cubits, its width fifty cubits, and its height thirty cubits.”.
This was the Bible study lesson that I prepared on 24 June 2018. The topic was called: “Why did Jesus come?”
Dear Brynn Tannehill,
I recently read your article: “Churches Could Learn A Lot From Medieval Reenactors” posted on 21 Feb 2017. (The article is linked here in PDF form just in case the link moves in the future)
Since I am a member of the SCA, a Christian of 9 years, Sunday School teacher, and Air Force veteran (since you said you were a Naval Aviator), I thought I could clarify some things from the article. I write this to you out of brotherly love to you, and out of a genuine desire to teach the Gospel. First off, thank you for supporting the Society for Creative Anacronism (SCA)! I am only a member and therefore do not represent the diverse and welcoming culture of the SCA, but I can tell you that I love being a part of the society and as you have stated, there are great things that modern people can learn from medieval times.
*I am not for either political party, and only stand for the Truth of the Gospel of Jesus Christ*
This is not proof the Bible is incorrect or “B.S.” as I recently saw someone say, rather it proves the Bible correct in that wolves will be in sheep’s clothing (Matt 7:15) much like the “evangelist” who made that comment, and the itching ears (2 Tim 4:3-4) of Trump and his supporters. Nothing changes under the sun (Ecc 1:9), false prophets will go out and deceive many (Matt 24:11), and there will be wars and rumors of wars in the last days (Matt 24:6), for these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet (Matt 24:6).
