For my readers who don't know who James Spurgeon is, you should click here and check out his blog. James used to be one of the Fantastic Four over on the Pyromaniacs website. His blogging attracted a great deal of fans. He was also a poster on the old version of the Fundamentalist Forums. Spurgeon was highly active on the internet for many years. He blogged incessantly about his "Tales from the Temple" about life in Bob Gray's church. His blog was so successful, that he took his stories and turned them into a book. Then suddenly, James Spurgeon disappeared from the internet. He wasn't blogging, wasn't posting, and wasn't doing much of anything.
And then last year, two IFB pastors on the FFF decided it would be fun to spread rumors about what they had heard about James Spurgeon and why he wasn't blogging anymore. They posted with great glee about how(according to their sources) James had fallen from the ministry. Several of us demanded proof, and the proof we received was that of second-hand and third-hand sources. You can read some of these threads here.

All we received was second and third hand information about an alleged affair. Spurgeon was alleged to have run off with a missionary's wife. However, Spurgeon is now back on the net, and has refuted that nonsense himself. He did confess to carrying on an online affair, but has denied a physical affair and running off with his paramour. The facts have come in, and Marty and Guy have been shown to have lied about at least a few facts in their stories about what Spurgeon was up to last year.
But the question does still remain, what is Spurgeon up to now? He states that he now rarely attends church, and (understandably)wants nothing to do with Fundamentalism. So where is he spiritually? Is he an evangelical? Living on the border of Christianity and loss of faith? It should definitely be interesting to see where Spurgeon's blog takes us.
