It&#39;s good to know you. I watched one of your vids, too. It&#39;s a day off and I&#39;m watching a six-month-old granddaughter.<br /><br />As you know, I&#39;m starting an online school with emphasis on the languages. I plan to us Skype or oovoo. It can be done personally, or I&#39;ve thought it could by used by a pastor like yourself.<br /><br />Right there in your own church, called men could be discipled by their pastor and yet someone else can come alongside and provide the languages, hermeneutics, church history, theology, etc. A class room could be set up in the church or a home and you could get your fellas seminary and college quality classes without sending them off to a school that may or may not have good profs. It would be properly accountable to the local church it serves. A much more biblical model than separating young pastors-to-be away from their spiritual fathers. And you don&#39;t have to send money to support an abiblical institution. Seminaries were not the biblical model. Churches were.<br /><br />How many young men have gone to seminary and had their faith ruined? You can make sure that doesn&#39;t happen.<br /><br />I know you don&#39;t know me. I&#39;ve only been saved a little less that 15 years and I&#39;m almost 53. <br /><br />Phil.Phil Perkinshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02171222033284405914noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-759084253982707040.post-41987752238505203192010-01-22T13:12:08.554-08:002010-01-22T13:12:08.554-08:00Thanks for reading Phil!

Great point.<br /><br />I don&#39;t believe that &quot;Christians&quot; who believe in losing their salvation are at slight variance with biblical doctrine. I was did.<br /><br />Just like the Judaizers in Galatians, they add to faith. The judaizers expected to begin salvation by a work of the Spirit, being born again, and then finish it with a work of the flesh, circumcision.<br /><br />Wesleyans believe we start by the Spirit, but get to heaven only by keeping our noses clean so we don&#39;t lose our salvation. And I have never gotten one of them to tell me exactly which sin you have to commit to lose your salvation or how many times you have to commit it.<br /><br />I guess it&#39;s a mystery!lol<br /><br />Phil Perkins.Phil Perkinshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02171222033284405914noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-759084253982707040.post-37392627409002051242010-01-18T19:20:39.583-08:002010-01-18T19:20:39.583-08:00I enjoyed looking over your blog<br />God bless youThe Old Geezerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17988834023347596010noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-759084253982707040.post-19213443225180220332010-01-18T15:15:59.331-08:002010-01-18T15:15:59.331-08:00You have them brother. <br /><br />May the LORD God be glorified in what yoy do.Matthew Johnstonhttp://www.narrowseventhirteen.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-759084253982707040.post-56087199088192820432010-01-13T19:19:56.113-08:002010-01-13T19:19:56.113-08:00Matt, <br /><br />I have resigned my position as the Senior Minister at the church I was preaching at. I prefer not to go into detail as to why, but suffice to say it was a Biblical decision. I am currently seeking God&#39;s will as to my itinerant ministry and other avenues.

It was originally the first comment on this post.)<br /><br />Hey, <br /><br />Thanks for the post. <br /><br />I see it has quite a large call for Mark to be saying &quot;I fear some are becoming more cultural than Christian&quot;. <br /><br />I see him as the man who ministers in this way; &quot;so how would you like me to reach you? Shall I speak like you, meet you at your level of carnality? Sure. I will&quot;.<br /><br />The way in which he ministers is like a 15 yr old boy telling his parents how they should raise him.<br /><br />That is not right. <br /><br />Do not take me the wrong way. I do not think Driscoll is a false teacher. I do believe he incorreclty contextualises. And must not continue to meet the carnal at their level.<br /><br />The fact he has such a large influence over so many younger folk (like me) is quite scary considering his speech and seemingly large obession with sex.<br /><br />I have seen him stand in front of congreagtion and say &quot;masturbation is not sin&quot;. Sure, he qualified his statement by saying &quot;but lust is&quot;. This, to a large group of young men is wrong. <br /><br />I dont say these things just to jump on the wagon . I have taken some time to look into his minstry and all the issues that have risen. <br /><br /><br />Calling Rob Schuller a borther is of concern to. <br /><br />Blessings in His name, <br /><br />MatthewPastor Fred Wolfehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02306917326032721082noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-759084253982707040.post-54209465129851209472009-10-11T19:37:21.264-07:002009-10-11T19:37:21.264-07:00Matthew, I appreciate your sentiments. I have also been concerned with Driscoll&#39;s approach at times. On the other hand, I probably would have said the same thing about Micah or Isaiah, were I to be alive with them. I guess when it comes to Mark, what I have seen, (which is limited) was pretty solid. I will have to research him some more before I quote him further. Thanks for the &quot;heads up&quot;. <br /><br />I agree, Robert Schuller has led many astray, and if Mark has called him a brother, it is disconcerting.Pastor Fred Wolfehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02306917326032721082noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-759084253982707040.post-37141097834376734282009-10-05T19:54:11.417-07:002009-10-05T19:54:11.417-07:00I thoroughly enjoyed this post.
