These great commands by our Lord are rarely truly applied, obeyed and/or practiced (at least from my observations). Therefore I put this sermon together for the Lord’s people. I did an exposition of the Text, and shared several experiences, and how I applied this passage to them. The sermon notes to this teaching are available
Having said that, unashamedly I am orthodox reformed, and am a member of a reformed church, where we maintain a full subscription of our 1689 London Baptist Confession of Faith.

No matter what your Theological persuasion may be, I believe it is a good practice to judge ourselves from the inside out. As I’ve said before, “I appreciate Reformed Theology, and the

Biblical Thoughts on Billy Graham, by Zephaniah Mel, M.Div. The focus of this post is not for the purpose of debating the salvation of Billy Graham or the success he garnered, but a post to bring another perspective concerning the dangerous pitfalls of ecumenism (*[for this context] “an ideology that desires unity among all Christian
