3 Kinds of Freedom. Two are not the Christian type.

Posted on June 29, 2014 by theoldadam

Here’s another one that may shake you up. It’s radical stuff and no matter how many times I hear it the Old Adam in me just won’t buy it (that’s why I need to hear it again and again and again – we can’t live today on yesterday’s faith) :

Sure, the video is a bit amateurish. But the audio is the most important part.

Listen…and enjoy.

Baptism means freedom from sin…World Cup…L.A. Kings…Pastor Mark C. Anderson

Posted on June 16, 2014 by theoldadam

You can throw out the penultimate issues in that post title and realize that Pastor Mark is still teaching from Steven Paulson’s book, “Lutheran Theology”, the chapter on “Baptism’s Freedom from Sin”.

–

Go on…give a listen…if you can tear yourself away from “Diners, Drive-In’s, and Dives” (sometimes I have trouble with that):

–

Listen to > Baptism makes you Holy

And then…enjoy the World Cup games.

–

And bask in the fact that the L.A. Kings won the Cup (Stanley’s)…again.

–

And…congratulations to you Spurs fans, as well.

Chapter 6 and 7 of Steven Paulson’s Book

Posted on May 29, 2014 by theoldadam

Pastor Mark Anderson

” Sinners do not want God by means of a preacher. They want God in themselves, by themselves, as themselves, without words.” – Steve Paulson, “Lutheran Theology”, page 152

A little bit of chapter 6, and then on to chapter 7…with a few minor detours…but good ones.
