The following is a message I preached in 1978, one year before I became pastor of Thompson Road Baptist Church in Indianapolis, Indiana, where I would serve for the next 40 years, retiring in 2019 as senior pastor. I was, in 1978, a young pastor; I am now 82 years of age—and still a Fundamentalist.Continue reading “Why I Am A Fundamentalist”

Reclaimed Failures
All of us know the agony of failure, for as long as there is life, and as long as the human spirit exists, there will be those who achieve success, and there will be those who fail; and sometimes, those who have achieved great success have done so only after they have tasted the bitterContinue reading “Reclaimed Failures”
Nothing But the Blood
It is a topic that to many people in this 21st century probably seems archaic, even repulsive. Some abhor the thought of a “bloody religion,” while others may relegate it to the Old Testament sacrifices of bulls and goats; but the hymn penned by Robert Lowry (1826-1889) still says it all for the earnest BibleContinue reading “Nothing But the Blood”
All of Grace!
Pastor and author H.A. Ironside related a testimony of a new convert who had been delivered from a life of sin. The man gave God all the glory, declaring that he had done nothing to earn his salvation. But, whoever was leading the testimony meeting was not quite satisfied with the way the newly born-againContinue reading “All of Grace!”
More About the Holy Spirit (Part 3)
A recent survey found that 62 percent of self-identified “born-again Christians” in the US believe the Holy Spirit is “merely a symbol of God’s power, presence, or purity”—not a person. There evidently has been a dearth of correct teaching on the third person of the Godhead, the Holy Spirit. The Bible clearly teaches that theContinue reading “More About the Holy Spirit (Part 3)”
The Book of Books
“It is a book that contains the mind of God, the state of man, the way of salvation, the doom of sinners, and the happiness of believers. Its doctrines are holy, its precepts are binding, its histories are true, and its decisions are immutable. It should be read to be wise, believed to be safe,Continue reading “The Book of Books”
About The Holy Spirit (Pt.2)
Many years ago, Dr. Harold Lindsell authored a book entitled The Battle For The Bible” (Zondervan Publishing House, 1976). In the first chapter, Dr. Lindsell—former editor of Christianity Today and past professor at Fuller Theological Seminary—makes a candid confession. Dr. Lindsell traces the history of Fuller Theological Seminary, founded in 1947 on the conviction thatContinue reading “About The Holy Spirit (Pt.2)”
Charlie Kirk
It was a moment almost frozen in time—much like Nov. 22, 1963, the day President John F. Kennedy was assassinated—when, shortly after noon on September 10, 2025, the news began to break that Charlie Kirk, the 31-year-old founder of Turning Point, USA, had been felled by an assassin’s bullet at a rally in Orem, Utah.Continue reading “Charlie Kirk”
About the Holy Spirit
Lehman Strauss, in his book The Greatest Unused Power in the World…Knowing the Holy Spirit, lamented a half-century ago the widespread lack of knowledge, amongst Christians, of the person and work of the Holy Spirit: “Wherever I go in my travels, I meet people who ask questions about the Holy Spirit. To me this isContinue reading “About the Holy Spirit”
Glory Robbers
From the earliest days when God began to work with a “people” as a congregation, He has made it known that the manifestation of His glory is paramount in His dealing with believers. When the tabernacle was completed, the “church” in the wilderness (Acts 7:38) watched as “the glory of the Lord filled the tabernacle.”Continue reading “Glory Robbers”
