By Ronnie W. Rogers / January 26, 2015 / Comments Off on Anyone and Everyone Can Be Saved by Grace: Grace Enablements

“For by grace you have been saved through faith; and that not of yourselves, it is the gift of God” (Ephesians 2:8). Because of man’s sin, man is separated from God and destined to eternal hell. Because God is love and loving (John 3:16; 1 John 4:8), He provides man with the real opportunity to…

The Equipping Church: Somewhere Between Fundamentalism & Fluff

By Ronnie W. Rogers / January 19, 2015 / Comments Off on The Equipping Church: Somewhere Between Fundamentalism & Fluff

This is my latest book. The following is from the flap on the hardcover followed from an excerpt from the forward. To the traditionalist, the present contemporary church model appears irreverently trendy and unacceptably shallow, more influenced by culture than influencing culture. To the ecclesiastically avant-garde often known as the church growth movement, emergent, or…

By Ronnie W. Rogers / December 22, 2014 / Comments Off on A Day Is a Day Is a Day of Course: Unless That Day Challenges Evolution! Part I

Genesis has been a battleground for some time, and today is no different. This is particularly true of Genesis 1-3, which is the account of the creation and the fall.

According to Calvinism, God chose hell for most and help for few.
