I have very much enjoyed your reading your posts from time to time. This post is a bit late, but given the recent Luis Palau debacle in Omaha, I thought this might be of interest to your viewers. It is a link to the reformer John Knox's 'A Vindication of the Doctrine that the Sacrifice of the Mass is Idolatry', which doctrine Knox and other faithful men (by the Spirit of Christ) did "so constantly affirm": http://www.swrb.com/newslett/actualNLs/vindicat.htm Would to God that He would remember His covenant to Abraham, Isaac and Jacob and raise up such sons of thunder in our own day. Can the visible church join hands with Christ's enemies and not be visited in judgment by her God? Or, can Christ have any fellowship with Belial? How sad it is that the glorious work of God which we call the Reformation is being utterly defaced in our day through the ignorance, neglect and indifference of professing Christians. The questions before us are these: Is the doctrine of the Reformers agreeable to the Word of God? Was the Reformation a work of God in mercy to His church? If so, how can we live today as though it never happened! There can be no such thing as neutrality or indifference to the truth. Let us be careful lest this word be fulfilled in our day: 'Because they regard not the works of the LORD, nor the operation of his hands, he shall destroy them, and not build them up.' (Psalm 28:5). I hope this is helpful. In Christ, Brad Snyder "I see the battle shall be great, for Sathan rageth even to the uttermost; and I am come (I praise my God), even in the brunt of the battle." "I have been fighting against Sathan, who is ever ready to assault; yea, I have fought against spriritual wickedness in heavenly things and have prevailed!" "What I have been to my country, albeit this unthankful age will not know, yet the ages to come will be compelled to bear witness to the truth." - John Knox Greetings in Christ!

I particularly liked the 2 Chronicles 30:21 reference to loud music. It was a great series. I also created a post about the series but focused on the later 2 parts. Rock on! ;-) http://barrydean.wordpress.com/2007/07/21/anti-worship/ BTW, are you creating the audio page for each of the series? Is this something we've stared doing with the description and all? I really like it. Maybe I just haven't noticed it in that detail before. Amen Erik. I particularly liked the 2 Chronicles 30:21 reference to loud music. It was a great series.
