The Weekend Roundup

Blogspotting
The Armchair Theologian puts us in his blogroll with an enthusiastic “Yeah Buddy!” He also seems to have a future in Christian clothing design.
The Irish Calvinist highlights our creation discussion, and also gives his commentary on the Rick Warren Starbucks cup.
Expository Thoughts points people to the two-part interview on preaching.
Occupied with the Word likes our post on “Confronting the Culture.” As does the Reformed Baptist Thinker and Under God’s Hands. It’s not all compliments for the article, though. The Peregrine Pastor, though he loves John MacArthur, thinks the article is a generation or two behind.
And Sean Higgins and Bret Capranica got their links in right before our Friday night deadline.
Other blogs that now link here include…
The Adventures of Beth and Niam (and their Super-Dog Clover)
In Other News
Server Problems. We apologize for the intermittent network problems we have been experiencing this week. Our hosting service assures us that these problems will soon be totally taken care of. Apparently, the site is being moved to a more stable server, perhaps even as you read this.
Our New Topic. Last, but certainly not least, we are eager to introduce our new topic here on Pulpit: Lordship Salvation. Unlike our creationism topic, though, we will be periodically interrupting the series with miscellaneous articles. So look for our new topic starting next week.
Yes, Nathan, I enjoyed the posts on “Confronting the Culture.” Perhaps Peregrine Pastor has some insight in the thoughts being behind the times a bit, but I think they are still quite applicable.
I did get quite a chuckle out of your post, though. I’m not so sure my congregation would like to know that I’m Occupied with the *World*! Thanks for the correct link to Occupied with the *Word*! I appreciate it–as well as the great posts here.
Jason,
Sorry for the blunder. We’ve corrected it now.
And we’re relieved to hear that you’re occupied with the right things! (I’m sure your congregation is relieved as well.)
NB
I will be happy to see the posts on Lordship Salvation. Will this be a completely pro-Lordship expedition or will it also seek to correct the non-Lordship, Free Grace position?
Either way, I look forward to the posts. I am sure they will be challenging.
Cordially and coureously, I would like to engage, at least to keep it honest on the Free Grace side, and to act as a watchgroup for accountability on the Lordship side.
I am sure that my polite comments will be welcome within the confines of this great web-magazine and the open expression of well-reasoned and supported ideas.
Prayers of blessings to you all.
Respectfully,
Antonio da Rosa
[...] How about this as a response to a Starbucks cup? This man’s “books and sermons are no different. His venti cup of vagueness mixed with a double shot of semi-pelagianism while holding the ‘Jesus’ is a lethal tonic for the spiritually blind.” And I thought the way I saw things was tough.

YEAH BUDDY!
I look forward to reading this blog more than I have in the past. Particularly I am excited and interested in the Lordship topic. Having come out of Independent Baptist fundamentalism, I am all too familiar with the non-lordship views.
One minor note (you can delete this whole comment if you want after seeing the note), could you guys change the way you display links? I am using IE 6.0 at the green letters hardly differ at all from the gray font for normal letters. If you at least had the links in bold, it would be easier to see. It took me a little bit to actually realize that you were linking back to the blogs you mention in this blog roll!
Thanks and God richly bless you all in Jesus Christ,

Hey Nathan,
It’s been a while. Thanks for featuring my blog on the site. Great to have the Pulpit Mag online…the articles have been excellent.
My buddy George Lawson is out at TMS now…he’s lovin’ it. My plans to attend, in God’s providence, have changed. But, Lord willing, I plan to be at the Shep Conf this year and will be sure to give you a shout.
Keep up the great work!

Bob,
Thanks for the note about the links. We lightened up the green just a little, so hopefully it’s easier to identify links. Thank you also for your encouraging notes about the site.
Nathan…one other thing…
can you fix the link for Truth In the Innermost to
http://truthintheinnermost.blogspot.com/
It currently links to my first post and not the home page.
Thanks.
Q
Quincy,
Sure thing, it’s all done!
Thanks for the fix. It is better now.
