The Protestant Standard: After Ashers - what now?
http://protestant-standard.blogspot.com/2015/05/after-ashers-what-now.html
Sunday, 24 May 2015. After Ashers - what now? Yet as we look around us we see the enemies of the gospel rejoicing in their victories, and declaring their intention to further pursue their anti-God agenda. In the face of an ever militant homosexual lobby we must ask ourselves, what should Christians do now? The need to proclaim. Likewise 1st Corinthians 6:9-10 says that, amongst other sins, 'effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind'. Is the Greek word arsenokoit. By using the Greek word. And if ...

http://protestant-standard.blogspot.com/2015/06/who-are-bethel-church.html
Thursday, 4 June 2015. Who are Bethel Church? In truth the errors associated with Bethel Church are so numerous and far reaching that we cannot possibly deal with them all within the scope of this blog post, nor go into detail on any point. What we will simply seek to do is highlight some of the more serious, dangerous, and indeed bizarre teachings which has emanated from Bethel Church. 1 Soaking up the annointing of the dead. And as teaching 'doctrines of devils'. 2 The Fire Tunnel. 3 Waking up angels.

The Protestant Standard: Punctuality for church: 5 reasons why we should practice it
http://protestant-standard.blogspot.com/2013/12/punctuality-for-church-5-reasons-why-we.html
Sunday, 15 December 2013. Punctuality for church: 5 reasons why we should practice it. 1 Punctuality allows us to prepare ourselves to worship God. 2 Lateness belies a lax attitude to worshiping God. The church service is not just another event in our weekly schedule, but it is the worship of almighty God. The worship of God is a holy and solemn thing and we are commanded to 'worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness'. 3 Lateness is hypocritical. Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees,. What impression wil...

The Protestant Standard: Christian, Protestant, Reformed, Evangelical: The Need for Labels
http://protestant-standard.blogspot.com/2015/09/christian-protestant-reformed.html
Thursday, 17 September 2015. Christian, Protestant, Reformed, Evangelical: The Need for Labels. For approximately two millennia the followers of Jesus Christ have been known as Christians. Acts 11:26 tell us that 'the disciples were called Christians first in Antioch'. Does following Christ no longer involve believing specific truths? Posted by Andrew McDonald. 12 October 2015 at 08:42. The east/west schism of 1054 divided the Christian church into its Roman and Orthodox branches. 1 November 2015 at 08:46.

The Protestant Standard: Five Joyce Meyer quotes you won't post on Facebook
http://protestant-standard.blogspot.com/2013/06/five-joyce-meyer-quotes-you-wont-post.html
Sunday, 23 June 2013. Five Joyce Meyer quotes you won't post on Facebook. Matthew 12:37 says 'by thy words thou shalt be justified, and by thy words thou shalt be condemned'. 1 Joyce Meyer teaches that Jesus Christ stopped being the Son of God. Making it clear to all that he was the eternal, unchanging God. Joyce Meyer's teaching here goes against the words of the Saviour and the beliefs of orthodox Christianity. 2 Joyce Meyer teaches that Jesus Christ was born again. In her book 'The most important deci...

The Protestant Standard: Northern Ireland v The Lord's Day
http://protestant-standard.blogspot.com/2015/03/northern-ireland-v-lords-day.html
Wednesday, 25 March 2015. Northern Ireland v The Lord's Day. For Christian football fans we may ask ourselves what will actually bother us more; the fact we cannot attend the game due to it being played on a Sunday (we are not even contemplating the idea that attending the game can be justified), or the fact that the Lord's Day is being desecrated in such a manner? Are we more disappointed at missing the game, or more disappointed at the lack of respect being given to the Christian Sabbath? Interesting r...

The Protestant Standard: The Prosperity Gospel: A Doctrine of Devils
http://protestant-standard.blogspot.com/2015/08/the-prosperity-gospel-doctrine-of-devils.html
Sunday, 16 August 2015. The Prosperity Gospel: A Doctrine of Devils. Is it true that a Christian should always be healthy and if they are not prospering in life it is because of a lack of faith? Is a child of God supposed to focus on health, wealth and prosperity in this life, and is the message of preachers such as Joel Osteen and Creflo Dollar really in accordance with the Word of God? The Satanic origin of the Prosperity Gospel. The Forgotten Doctrine of the Word of Faith Movement. Whilst on some occa...
