T.D. Jakes Has Ties To "Rabbi" Ralph Messer
Apprising Ministries brings you some very interesting information from Messer himself in this short well-documented article.

Apprising Ministries observes that former Gospel Coalition member James MacDonald, who resigned over his inviting Word Faith prosperity preacher T.D. Jakes into his Elephant Room, has gone on the offensive.

Well, the truth is, what this effete approach to the robust Christian faith is actually doing is opening the door for things like you’ll see in the video presented in the article.

Review of Carson's and Keller's response to ER2
Carson and Keller, the representatives as it were of the Gospel Coalition (TGC), have published a response to the Elephant Room 2 fiasco. As a response in general, it attempts to be irenic yet firm in its doctrinal stand. I examine the response in this post.
