Can you be gay and Christian and go to heaven? Not likely, any more than I should wear mud-stained shoes on my friend’s expensive Persian rug.

9/11 woman covered in dust

Over the last week there have been some interesting stories surrounding September 11. One is an account of the African American lady who was photographed on the day of the terrorist attack, who was covered in dust. This is where she is at now, and sadly it’s not a pretty picture (pardon the pun). The [...]

American pastor Rob Bell has found himself caught in a dangerous theological position of denying that hell exists and that one day all people will be ‘one over’ to God’s love (see below). The man who interviewed him, Martin Bashir, is a Christian and knows his theology. This is actually the same Martin Bashir who [...]

Why ‘gay’ debates matter
Posted in Healing and Restoration, Hell and Judgement on 29 March, 2011 (Tuesday) | Leave a Comment »
These days, the topic of homosexuality is a Big Kahuna which attracts all manner of hotly felt passions and responses. On my Facebook page today one such discussion took place, as to whether or not Jesus upheld the Levitical standard on human sexuality.

The Narrow Door
Posted in Hell and Judgement, Mark Driscoll on 24 January, 2011 (Monday) | Leave a Comment »
This is a very aptly timed, timely sermon on The Narrow Door. Hell is not preached enough these days; no wonder many are going there. But it needs to be preached not as a ‘fire and brimstone’ message of fear and trepidation, but one of sober assessment of eternity and the Great Invitation of God [...]
