What the Thunder Said...

Despite our bed & breakfast induced absence from the blogosphere, we were able to keep abreast of the Pastor MacArthur | Premillenialism fiasco. Now, it seems there are too many links to point to in order to capture the hoo-rah, but here is Challies' comments, Rev. Riddlebarger's thoughts, and Mr. Phil Pyro-Johnson, for a sampling of some of the buzz.

Now, its clear that everyone has a dog in this fight; who's going to be impartial? So we're in a bit of a pickle: on the one hand, we have immense mad love for JMac (that's what we call him when we hit the links together), are thankful for his witness to the Word, and for what he has done for so many people. Heck, I think he may be my wife's favorite preacher to listen to on the radio. Most importantly, I don't want to slander a minister of the church, or my theological-more mature-wiser elder. But on the other hand, we think he's wrong on this point. What to do?

Simple! You find quotes by dead guys and let them contradict MacArthur! While there is no doubt scads of stuff out there giving another reading to what Pastor MacArthur came away with, we simply point you to one of our past posts concerning G. Vos and Premillenialism. We hope you enjoy his thoughts.
