Pentecostalism - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Pentecostalism - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia: "Theologically, most Pentecostal denominations are aligned with Evangelicalism in that they emphasize the reliability of the Bible and the need for the transformation of an individual's life with faith in Jesus. Most Pentecostals also adhere to the doctrine of Biblical inerrancy. Pentecostals differ from Fundamentalists by placing more emphasis on personal spiritual experience."

Calvinism vs. Arminianism from Calvary Chapel Cheyenne

Calvinism vs. Arminianism

A Discussion of Doctrine

by Larry Taylor

INTRODUCTION

God has, in these last days, raised up Calvary Chapel as a ministry of balance. Since its inception under the leadership of Pastor Chuck Smith, Calvary Chapel ministries have sought the Biblical middle ground between the extremes of Pentecostalism versus fundamentalism, emotionalism versus traditionalism, and Calvinism versus Arminianism. With respect to this latter debate, no final solution is possible. Great theological minds have debated the issues of free will versus the sovereignty of God for centuries without ever being able to reconcile the two. Arguing for one side at the expense of the other is foolish because it is by nature not provable, and therefore is an argument which no one can win. Humility demands that we bow in the presence of a God who is beyond our intellectual comprehension and confess the wisdom of Deuteronomy 29:29: "The secret things belong to the Lord our God, but the things which are revealed belong to us and to our children forever..."

WHAT’S Wrong with the “WORD-FAITH” Movement?

WHAT’S WRONG WITH THE “WORD-FAITH” MOVEMENT?

Many popular evangelists are involved with “Positive Confession” or the “Word-Faith” movement. What’s wrong with this movement?

Some of America’s best known televangelists subscribe either partly or wholly to what’s commonly referred to as “positive confession,” the “Word-Faith” teaching, or the “prosperity” doctrine. Its chief representatives today seem to be Kenneth Copeland, Kenneth Hagin, Fred Price, Charles Capps, and Casey Treat, though there are certainly many other evangelists, teachers, and writers who promote this teaching.

On Simon's wedding day, he and Rose have made up after their fight at the rehearsal dinner. Matt (Barry Watson) and Sarah (Sarah Danielle) show up unexpectedly to attend the wedding and make a surprising announcement, as do Kevin (George Stults) and Lucy (Beverley Mitchell). Even the long-absent Mary (Jessica Biel) appears in Eric (Stephen Collins) and Annie's (Catherine Hicks) shared daydream and makes a call to the family to share her own good news. The wedding day ends happily, though not in a way anyone could have predicted. Mackenzie Rosman, Haylie Duff, Nikolas Brino and Lorenzo Brino also star.

2006 Prayer for the Nation

Dr. Henry Blackaby

Oh Heavenly Father, You have made Yourself known to us as a nation by Your mighty works throughout our history.
From the beginning, You have
been with us through many wars and conflicts; Your right
arm has saved us. We have
been amazingly and
graciously blessed.


Today, we confess our sin
of not responding to Your
right to rule in our lives and our nation. Too often we have
despised and rejected Your will while imposing our own, and we
are now facing the consequences
of our disobedience.
Draw us back to Yourself
that we may return to Your
ways once again.
Without You we can do nothing.
You have promised that if we
honor You, You will once again honor this great nation.


That is our fervent prayer.
For Your honor
and glory we pray,
Amen.

WorldNetDaily: The life that's worth living: "But we are reminded that Jesus is not just our Shepherd; He is the good shepherd. It is important to know that the word used here for 'good' doesn't just mean morally good, though it includes that. It also could be translated 'beautiful' or 'winsome' or 'lovely,' even 'attractive.' Jesus is the beautiful, attractive, winsome Shepherd, and the Shepherd's plan for His flock – more specifically, the Lord's plan for you – is that your life would flourish. It is His absolute joy to bless you."
