Musings On Doctrine: Pastor John C De Baca
Pastor Tackles Christianity’s Various Doctrines
Same doctrines, different messages by different Christian churches – a reality that leads to erroneous doctrines.

Writer and Pastor John C' de Baca published Musings on Doctrine: Christian Beliefs Revisited (WestBow Press, 2014), an exposition or rather, exposé, of various basic doctrines of Christianity. As expected, the pastor does not mince words nor leave any stone unturned when it comes to upholding Biblical truth.

In Musings on Doctrine, Pastor C' de Baca tackles almost everything from Salvation to the Rapture and discusses at length Satan, angels and demons, laws of nature, marriage and divorce, government, crime and punishment, the Antichrist, Rapture, the end times, and even feminism,

    Grand Canyon University Doctrinal Statements

    Frequently, doctoral creeds or statements have a universal interpretation or understanding among groups of believers, however “the devil is in the details” (Clark, K. 2009. Pg. 42). For instance the YouTube video documenting the Grand Canyon University doctrinal statement referred to the apostolic foundation of the church yet Roman killed the apostles and condemned Jesus to death. Therefore, small inconsequential changes in linguistic translations between versions can produce big consequences that we are unaware of. Like replacing “Study to show thyself reproved unto God” (KVJ) with “Do your best to present yourself to God as one approved” (unknown version). The Apostle Paul in Romans 7:18 stated “In my flesh dwelleth no good thing” (KJV). Also in Titus 3:5 Paul writes “It is not by works of righteousness”(KJV) that we obtain approval from God. Therefore my best will always fall short of God’s perfect standard. Yet I am to study the Word of God and the faith once delivered to the saints to discern right from wrong which therefore will allow me to rightly divide truth from false teaching of the Laodicean…

    Wisdom In Hermann Hesse's Siddhartha

    But teachings are never ‘this’ or ‘that,’ and their meaning can never be pinpointed as truth, for it is true that what may “[seem] right [and] of value and wisdom to one man [may seem] nonsense to another” (Hesse 145). Just as what we are taught can neither be right nor wrong, so too is “a person [neither] entirely holy nor entirely sinful” (Hesse ). No matter how one person may interpret his text and how another may interpret it, there will always be somebody who sees matters under a different light that offers different meaning to…

    JMI Collision Conference Analysis

    The JMI Collision Conference described different lifestyles and worldview, how the conflicting ideas within each can create tension, and what we, as followers of Christ, can do to show the real truth of Christianity. Multiple speakers were brought in to share their knowledge and challenge the audience; while each presentation had a plethora of knowledge within, the most impactful aspect of this conference was the questions asked and answered by the audience and the initial reactions to statements made by each speaker. As I observed this interaction, the tension between the secular worldview and the christian worldview revealed itself; the lack of knowledge, understanding, and respect is the root of the intolerance between the two lifestyles.…

    Why Do Christians Need A Pre-Trib Rapture

    In modern, evangelical Christianity, the term “rapture” conjures up images of the Christian church being pulled from an earth in turmoil and swept away to Heaven. It is an image that is reminiscent of the “Left Behind” books, a fictional series which depicts a world in which a rapture of all of earth’s Christians has occurred, leaving behind only “sinners” to stare down the end of the world. This view of a “rapture” has become a popular one, and one that remains largely unquestioned by the evangelical Church. This rapture theology is not, however, Biblically founded or supported. In reality, this eschatological perspective is fairly new, and has only been around for about 180 years.…

    The Academic Study of the New Testament

    On the other hand, a theological confessional approach is based on what one believes to be true. By taking this approach one is more concerned about their actions, the ultimate meaning of life, who God really is, and so forth. This approach to the New Testament results in controversial issues, biased opinions, and many different groups of believers with their own beliefs as seen from the ancient world up to the present modern day. We read about this very diversity in chapter one, for example the Jewish-Christian Adoptionists, Marcionite Christians, Gnostic Christians, and the Proto-Orthodox Christians.…
