Calvin on the Christ-less Unitarianism of Islam

Image via WikipediaDr James White posted the following quote from John Calvin. He saw this over on the Reformed Baptist Fellowship Blog:

For even if many men once boasted that they worshipped the Supreme Majesty, the Maker of heaven and earth, yet because they had no Mediator it was not possible for them truly to taste God’s mercy, and thus be persuaded that he was their Father. Accordingly, because they did not hold Christ as their Head, they possessed only a fleeting knowledge of God. From this it also came about that they at last lapsed into crass and foul superstitions and betrayed their own ignorance. So today the Turks, although they proclaim at the top of their lungs that the Creator of heaven and earth is God, still, while repudiating Christ, substitute an idol in place of the true God. - John Calvin, Institutes of the Christian Religion (Book II, Chapter VI).

Tongues Debate: James White vs. David Bernard

Image via WikipediaJames Swan comes through again posting a great mp3 audio from a radio discussion between James White vs David Bernard - Reformed Baptist vs Oneness. I've always wondered how Dr. White would deal with this particular issues on Tongues. I have heard him debate oneness Pentecostals on the Trinity but not on tongues and the place such a gift from God as Tongues hold in how we get saved and live.

Iron Sharpens Iron: Steve Camp: Are Theological Debates Antithetical to Christian Love?

Iron Sharpens Iron once had a great interview with Steve Camp:

Steve Camp, well known Christian recording artist, writer of a Grammy Award-winning song, theologically Reformed Christian apologist, founder of audienceONE Ministries and pastor of Cross Church in Palm City, Florida (see www.CrossChurch.net), will address the theme: "Are Theological Debates Antithetical to Christian Love?"

I enjoy these episodes on Iron Sharpens Iron because I like hearing what God is doing in other people's lives and congregations. Steve Camp's church seems to be a hybrid between the Reformed Baptist traditions and Pentecostal/charasmatic tradition of which I am very comfortable in. Reformed Baptist worship services, from what I have seen, tend to be quiet, very little music, somber and serious. Nothing wrong with that. I just can't get into that as much. There is very little talk of healing.  Nothing wrong with that either. Cross Church seems different in contrast. Pastor Camp said that they use musical instruments like electric guitars - I'd assume they get loud. Further, he also testified that God just recently healed his eyesight to the point that he no longer needs glasses to read. That is what God does - miracles. I liked how Pastor Camp described his church as "charismatic but with breaks."
