Mark Driscoll - Unlimited-Limited Atonement

I was introduced to this notion by a beloved brother reading Dricsoll's Death by Love.

I am currently doing some online research concerning this idea and will post links and thought here.

Here is the first link in the google response - and has some good linked resources.

Inerrancy, Textual Criticism, and the Spirit’s Stewardship of Scripture: An Apologetic for the Reliability of God’s Word

How Christians can confidently defend the Bible’s truth and transmission One of the most common objections skeptics raise is this: “How can you trust a book that’s been copied and recopied for thousands of years? Surely errors, omissions, and changes have crept in over time!” Christians who misunderstand how the Bible was preserved can themselves stumble — either doubting Scripture when confronted with textual variants, or clinging uncritically to one translation as though it alone were inspired. This article serves as an apologetic: to explain why Christians can trust the Bible, how inerrancy and textual criticism work together, and how the Holy Spirit has actively guarded God’s Word throughout history. Inerrancy: God’s Perfect Word Christians affirm that the Scriptures, in their original autographs , were fully inspired by God and perfectly true. “All Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching…” (2 Timothy 3:16). This doctrine applies specifically to what the...

Adam's Curse, Not Adam's Guilt: Recovering the Mystery of Grace

Adam's Curse, Not Adam's Guilt: Recovering the Mystery of Grace A Reformed Perspective on Original Sin, Divine Justice, and the Wonder of Election Introduction "Why me?" This question has echoed through the hearts of believers across the centuries—not as theological confusion, but as worshipful wonder. Why would a holy God show mercy to a rebel like me? Yet for many Christians, traditional formulations of original sin have obscured this beautiful mystery by creating a different puzzle altogether: How can God be just in condemning people for Adam's sin? I want to suggest that this latter question flows from a theological misstep that, while well-intentioned, has unnecessarily complicated our understanding of divine justice and muted the wonder of divine grace. The distinction is simple but profound: we inherit Adam's curse, not Adam's guilt. This framework preserves everything essential about Reformed theology while recovering the p...

America: an Islamic Nation?

In President Obama's nobel acceptance speech, he made reference again to Islam as "a GREAT religion" (Caps, my emphasis, though it reflects the tone in which the statement was made). While I recognize both the political and practical benefits of using such a term (i.e., seeking to drive a wedge to separate the greater Muslim community from those presently and publicly endorsing jihad.... so as to avoid WWIII), at the same time I wonder if any News organization would consider counting and reporting the number of times the President of the United States has made reference to Islam as a Great Religion and the number of times he has publicly referred to Christianity as a Great Religion? I guarantee the difference would be ASTOUNDING! Question: Where's the CONSISTENCY when it comes to what many refer to today as "separation of church and state"? Seems while there may be "separation of Christianity and state", there is no "separation of Islam and...
