Hilary of PoitiersAs I mentioned briefly in a previous post, there have been some who have accused me of trintarian heresy —not just error or heterodoxy, but damnable heresy— as a result of some concern (note that I did not say objections) I have expressed regarding the Athanasian Creed and its use in Reformed theology.… Continue reading Tony and the Athanasian Creed (2)

Advent Series – WCF 8.1-2 (2)
Every year during the season of Advent I do a four part series in to match up with the four Sunday’s of Advent. In 2014 we explored the various heresies which facilitated the controversies of the 4th and 5th centuries. In 2015 we took an in depth look at the Niceno-Constantinopolitian Creed. This year, we… Continue reading Advent Series – WCF 8.1-2 (2)
Tullian, Revelations, and Disgust
Recently, the Christian Post remarked on Tullian’s new marriage and return to preaching. The article, titled Tullian Tchividjian Emerges From Scandal With New Wife, Preaches Sermon on God’s Redemption, deserves a whole post to discuss it, and that will certainly happen, look for that in the week to come. However, another set of blog posts… Continue reading Tullian, Revelations, and Disgust
Red and Yellow, Black and White, They are Precious…
Recently, I have begun listening to a variety of podcasts while at the office. I primarily work a desk job and this allows me to listen to while I check emails and take care of paperwork. One of the shows that I recommend is the Confessional Collective. This podcast has been particularly impactful in my… Continue reading Red and Yellow, Black and White, They are Precious…

Review of “The Voices of the New Testament” by Derek Tidball (Downers Grove: InterVarsity Press, 2016)
I was recently forwarded a new book published by InterVarsity Press. The Voices of the New Testament by Derek Tidball is an innovative new approach to Biblical Theology. In this book, Tidball sets up a panel discussion of sorts between the various New Testament authors. He then explores various themes by presenting the dialog that would… Continue reading Review of “The Voices of the New Testament” by Derek Tidball (Downers Grove: InterVarsity Press, 2016)

Follow Up on JD Hall
I have had many people ask me if I plan on responding to JD Hall’s coverage of my recent post. He addressed what I had to say on a recent episode of the Polemics Report. The answer is no. I don’t find these kind of ongoing battles between those under the covenant administration of Christ’s Church… Continue reading Follow Up on JD Hall
A Short Word of Encouragement
Recently, I have been thinking through a lot of epistemological and existential questions. How can we have certainty? How can we have knowledge? What is knowledge? Does it exist outside of our minds? If it does and assuming it is contingent upon God, how would I know this? Must I just believe? Is that my… Continue reading A Short Word of Encouragement
Slander, Accusation, and Truth
Alright everyone, lets take a step into the personal world of Tony Arsenal here for a moment. I want to first say, that I was hesitant to make this post, but at the behest of several men who have been involved in this issue I am acquiescing to their judgement.
