POPSSpurgeon " Effects of Sound Doctrine" "It is as false to say that man is saved by faith as a work, as that he is saved by the deeds of the law.

We are also committed to joining the growing number of teachers who make their content freely available on the web.

POPSUK: "Whatever happened to free speech?" he refusal to admit the oddball Dutch MP Geert Wilders to Britain yesterday marks a further retreat from this country's traditions of free speech. It stands in stark contrast to what happened exactly 20 years ago tomorrow, when Ayatollah Khomeini of Iran issued a fatwa calling for the death of Salman Rushdie for insulting the Prophet Mohammed in his book The Satanic Verses. In retrospect, that was a turning point in the country's history of free speech, an event that appeared to demonstrate indomitability, yet turned out to be a defeat ... Telegraph
