To Megan Basham: There Is No Bright Side of Death, and Suffering is Not Your Friend

By Paul M. Dohse, RN, CDP The Bible states in 1st Corinthians 15:25-26, “For he must reign until he has put all his enemies under his feet. The last enemy to be destroyed is death.” We note two primary points in this passage: death is God’s enemy, and he will eventually destroy it. Another thought may be noted; more than likely, God does not ordain or create enemies for himself, and while he…

The True Gospel of Justification by New Birth

“You must be born again.” That’s the gospel. The new birth is an act of God; we can’t birth ourselves. However, we can ask for the free gift. If freewill offerings in the Old Testament were really freewill, and they clearly were, there is freewill. The new birth is a miracle performed by God through the Holy Spirit that transforms the believer into a literal new creature with ALL THINGS being…

The Protestant False Gospel of Double Imputation

RC Sproul loved it. John MacArthur Jr. loved it, and this is a post about why double imputation is a false gospel. First, it is fundamentally false because it defines righteousness as perfect law-keeping. The apostle Paul wrote his letter to the Galatians for the sole purpose of refuting this idea. His argument? Abraham was declared righteous 400 years before the implementation of the law through…

Why Predestination is Wrong: Part 1

Well, I guess it is official. After many years of thought and research, I am taking a position on predestination. Yes, for several years, I was a Calvinist, until I discovered that Calvinism is Progressive Justification and redefines the biblical new birth. So, I became skeptical of predestination because of the source, and the matter of priority; let’s get the gospel right and then worry about…

A Comment on Moderation Policy

This comment doesn’t meet moderation standards for PPT, in that, it does not address any point in the post, but attempts to discredit the post through a subjective accusatory talking point. However, I will take the opportunity to educate readers on what is going on here. Martin Luther rejected so-called “human reason” in exchange for truth determined by authority. Said religionists don’t have to…

The Problem with Particular Atonement is the How and Not the Who, and Why Protestants Do What They Do

REPOSTED FROM July 15, 2017 Presently, I am supposed to be completely out of the loop regarding TANC Ministries because I am preparing to take a state exam for medication certification. However, when perusing what Andy is up to while I am gone, I was made privy to this article by Kevin DeYoung. I am 60 years old, and in my mind, of all the people I have been made aware of in my life to varying…

Nurse Erica’s Take on Alex Pretti: Advocate or Political Hack?

Enough is enough. Nurses should know we need to tread very softly on politics, if at all. Why? Because everyone knows that the healthcare work environment is already toxic enough. If we can learn to respect each other and be civil at work, maybe we can add politics, but until then, I don’t recommend it. Nurse Erica is a “nurse advocate” and successful internet influencer with impressive nursing…

A Plea to a Fellow Pastor to Save His Marriage with the True Gospel

Some years ago, Susan and I did a lot of marriage counseling. She was doing some reorganizing in our basement and stumbled upon this letter written to a counselee. The man was a pastor amid a divorce, and Susan and I were trying to save the marriage. The letter is lengthy, but well worth revisiting. Authority has no place in a marriage, and particularly an authority based on a false…
