One of the reasons why I identify with the Reformed tradition is because it emphasizes the gracious initiative and saving power of God in the event of salvation. Furthermore, it is my contention that God does not "draw out" or "woo" faith from us, but gives it as a gift through his efficacious Word. Several texts point in this direction: 1. Philippians 1:29 - "For it has been granted to you not only...

The Wrath Of God Shobha Shukla The wrath of gods seems to be descending on the religious Indian masses with perilious frequency as stampedes at pilgrimages kill more people (361 in 2008 alone, and 875 in the last ten years) than even bomb blasts. The latest in this series was the early morning stampede this month on the first day of Navratra (the nine days religious festivity celebrated all...

I know, I know, some may be a bit shocked to find Karl Barth here, but I wanted to share a couple of quotes from pages 25 and 26 of his The Humanity of God . Barth says: "Theology is in reality not only the doctrine of God, but the doctrine of God and man. . . . [It stresses] the fact that man's relation to God is based on God's dealings with man, and not conversely." "When the Christian gospel was...

The word of God is the foundation of everything, it is true reality. And in order to be realists, we must count on this reality. We must change our ideas that the material, solid things, that which can be touched, is the more solid and more secure reality. At the end of the Sermon on the Mount, the Lord speaks to us of two possibilities for building the house of one's life: on the sand, or on

Campaigning in Clearwater, FL today, Sarah Palin said something rather weird. Speaking about energy policy, she talked about Florida's potential energy sources, saying, "God has so richly blessed you here!" She saw potential for wind and solar power generation in the Sunshine State, and renewed a call for oil drilling off Florida's coast. Now granted, that wasn't as weird as Joe Lieberman's introduction...
