Taxonomy of Sabbath positions
Posted in Catechesis, Sabbatarianism & the Church Calendar, Theological Diagrams on July 26, 2022| 1 Comment »
The following chart gives a kind of basic taxonomy of various positions on the Sabbath within Christianity. This very helpful piece was designed by my elder, Brad Snyder. Well done, sir!
[Note, this was designed for our catechism class, which focuses on the education of our young people. Some parts could require more elucidation and explanation for adults.]

Witchcraft today?

I paused from my morning series on the Gospel of Luke to preach a topical sermon on the subject of witchcraft. I seek to answer from the Scriptures whether witchcraft is real and whether it is a real threat in the modern day.
Following the sermon, we had a youth discussion time, in which we watched the this video that illustrates the allure of contemporary ‘neo-paganism’ and then discussed it critically from Scripture.
While the sermon was not primarily an expose of Halloween, I have preached directly as well as written on that topic in the past.
