  • The Church and the Surprising Offense of God's Love
    The The Church “Insofar as the gospel presents the world with the most vivid picture of God’s love, and insofar as church membership and discipline are an implication of the gospel, local church membership and discipline in fact define God’s love for the world. That, in one sentence, is the the and argument of this book. Along the way we will observe that the very The Church and the things that offend us about church membership root in the things we find offensive about God’s love itself. SURPRISING “What’s striking, therefore, is how most evangelicals have pushed the question of church structure into the category of nonessential SURPRISING and therefore of nonimportance. The gospel is important, even es- sential, we say. Church structure is neither. And since questions of church structure only divide Christians . it’s best to leave it out of OFFENSE the conversation altogether. Right? “What if that’s wrong? What if God, in his wisdom, actually revealed OFFENSE both content and form, both a message and a medium, both a gospel and a polity, perfectly suited to one another? Couldn’t pushing questions of church structure into the category of ‘what of respectable evangelicals shouldn’t hold strong opinions about’ Love God’s of God’s Love eventually undermine the gospel itself?” —FROM THE INTRODUCTION Reintroducing the Doctrines of Church Membership and Discipline JONATHAN LEEMAN (MDiv, Southern Baptist Theological Seminary), an elder at Capitol Hill Baptist Church in Washington DC, serves as director of communications for 9Marks and is the editor of its eJournal.

It is included here to give you an acquaintance with this Mormon scripture. Introduction to the Book of Mormon The fourth-last paragraph includes Joseph Smith, Jr.’s claim that the Book of Mormon is the world’s most perfect book.

This PBS article describes the background for the lost tribes of Israelites and traces worldwide claims for their location: including the identification of American Indians with the lost tribes centuries before Joseph Smith, Jr. Setting the Record Straight About Native Peoples: Lost Tribes of Israel This article answers linguistic claims that Native American languages match Egyptian and other hieroglyphics.

  • Raising up a Next Generation of Pastors
    January/February 2009, Volume 6, Issue 1 Editor's Note Seminaries don’t make pastors, churches do. You’ll hear someone at 9Marks say that if you hang around us long enough. In this issue of the eJournal, we try to put some flesh on this basic idea. Mark Dever considers why the local church is uniquely equipped and commissioned to the work of raising up future pastors. Then he offers some practical advice for every pastor and church for doing this work, whether or not they have the resources for an internship program. Both seminary presidents and pastors offer their sentiments in a couple of 9Marks forums. And one of John MacArthur’s associate pastors, Nathan Busenitz, tells the story of how Grace Community Church decided to plant a seminary within the church. Next, we asked three different churches how they formally mentor future pastors. We hope this might give our pastor readers a few ideas they can adopt, as God provides the opportunity. And our goal is the same for the last section, where we feature a number of church-affiliated programs. Maybe a church will start its own program; maybe it will sponsor a student through one of the programs listed here. This issue does not contain the longer, more theological articles that we often include (we will in the future!), but here’s the very simple point we hope you catch: God primarily calls and equips men for the pastorate as pastors faithfully shepherd and disciple their own congregations. If you don’t read anything else, catch this point in the first three paragraphs of Dever’s second interview below.

  • Edwards and the Next Generation of Evangelicals
    EDWARDS AND THE NEXT GENERATION OF EVANGELICALS Piper is coming to Sydney this year, and will draw massive crowds. Driscoll isn’t coming to Sydney this year, but it is estimated that a million of his sermons will be downloaded in Australia anyway. Many of us would like Keller to visit, but he is not especially the travelling sort. These men, the Holy Trinity (as they have been called) of neo-Calvinist church-planting energy, are getting our attention, and redrawing the map of contemporary evangelicalism, not just in Australia but all around the world. Of course, they are just the tip of the iceberg. We don’t hear as much in Australia about CJ Mahaney, or Ligon Duncan, or Mark Dever, or Ed Stetzer, or Josh Harris, or Rick Holland, but they are all influential in Reformed circles in the US, and represent what Collin Hansen, journalist for Christianity Today, has dubbed the young, restless and Reformed generation. Their mega-conferences which go under the titles of “Together for the Gospel,” or “Resolved,” “Passion” or “Next,” bring together thousands of pastors and lots of wannabes to hear expository preaching and to sing contemporary music with seriously theological lyrics. What is perhaps more significant, they all drink at the same well: Jonathan Edwards. I am unabashed apologist for Edwards, a great enthusiast for understanding the eighteenth century revivals, and especially the impact those revivals have had on the foundations of Christianity in Australia, but I am nevertheless amazed by the resurgence of interest in Edwards amongst Gen Y believers. I came to Edwards by reading about Methodism and Pietism.

  • By Whose Authority?
    By Whose Authority Text 9/28/06 3:37 PM Page 1 BY WHOSE AUTHORITY? Elders in Baptist Life Mark Dever By Whose Authority Text 9/28/06 3:37 PM Page 2 ©2006 by 9Marks ISBN 0-9701252-3-2 Al rights reserved Cover Design: Pete Artemenko All scripture quotations from The New International Version By Whose Authority Text 9/28/06 3:37 PM Page 3 IX MARKS God intends to display the glory of His beauty, perfection, and love through the church. Imagine what this would look like in our local congregations: • God’s name exalted in song and sermon. • Relationships tied together by love and service. • Marriages and families built for endurance. • Christ’s sacrifice pictured in the lives of sinful but repenting people! At 9Marks, we believe that there is no better evangelistic tool, missions strategy, or counseling program than the image of God displayed through His gathering of imperfect but trans- forming people. As we learn more about Him, we look more and more like Him. Neighborhoods and nations will look with wonder. As will the heavenly host! Church leaders do not need another innovative method or engaging metaphor for growing their churches. They need to (get to!) embrace the biblical theology and priorities that God Himself designed for cultivating health and holiness in the local congregation. Scripture actually teaches church leaders how to build churches that display God’s glory. At 9Marks, we seek to answer the "how-to" question and develop a biblical vision for your congregation. • Media: downloadable web resources, audio interviews, e-newsletters, educational curriculum.
