(June 25, 1934 – January 8, 2023)
Feb 18, 2015:
PastorJack Hayford said Friday that the founding of the Fellowship of Israel Related Ministries (FIRM) could not have been more timely because "we live in perilous times" where standing for righteousness, including standing with Israel, may mean persecution, perhaps even martyrdom.
Hayford, founding pastor of the Church on the Way in Van Nuys, California, was the final speaker in a three-day sellout conference in Loveland, Colorado, which served to launch FIRM. Read earlier articles on the conference here.
Saying we must engage in spiritual warfare, Hayford emphasized the need to pray and urged the crowd to take the "1% challenge" to devote 1% of each day--14 minutes--to pray for Israel and the Jewish people.
Using the backdrop of history and biblical quotes, Hayford said Israel has a right to the land and cited the many miracles that have happened, including their winning the six-day war.
"FIRM must stand with Israel and stand for righteousness," Hayford said, urging the people to take on the "whole armor of God" (Eph. 6:10).
He lamented the lawlessness in the world where "people won't listen to God," and "deception," where leaders actually bow to Muslim leaders, as well as immorality resulting in people rejecting "the Creator's order for sexuality."

Sept 26, 2022: Scott E Olson: Relational Theology Yes; Panentheism No
Many 19th and 20th century Christian thinkers have contributed to relational theology including (among others) Georg Hegel, Horace Bushnell, I. A. Dorner, Emil Brunner, K. Kitamori, Juergen Moltmann, and Robert Jenson. Open theism is a type of relational theology and was promoted especially by Clark Pinnock, John Sanders and Greg Boyd (among others). Among Christian philosophers it (relational theology) has been embraced Keith Ward, William Hasker, Nicholas Wolterstorff and others.
