SPIRITUAL GIFTS
I have always been surprised at how some Christians interpret the scriptures to fit their doctrine, instead of the scriptures being their doctrine. As an example, I was once told by a Christian brother, who was very knowledgeable of the Bible, that...

Reliability of Biblical Manuscripts
|
Not thinking it necessary to re-invent the wheel, these studies speak for themselves regarding the reliability of Biblical manuscripts. The closer the copy to the time of the creation of the original autograph, the greater the degree of accurancy. In light of...

The Gospels
|
Before I had discussed the first three gospels of the Bible called the Synoptic Gospels. A few historians have tried to infer that Mark wrote these three gospels. But here are some things we know.
1) Mark was probably written first. It was the shortest of the...

Myths?

Is Evolution based upon the “scientific method” of observation, recording and reproducible, verifiable experiments done under laboratory conditions? Or are these ideas originally based upon ancient pagan religious beliefs?

Spiritually Challenged

Some people have asked me what I meant by the phrase, “spiritual retardation”. Some have taken issue with the coined phrase, so in the interest of cultural “sensitivity”…I am changing it to “spiritually challenged”. It has nothing to do with intelligence...

"sons of god"
|
In response to the question by Bill, "What are the sons of god in the Old Testament? ..specifically in Genesis 2 and 4."
I have found in my studies over the years that the Bible to a great degree is self-interpreting. Those use of symbols or expressions are usually...

Incredible Patterns of the Bible
|
One of the most interesting studies in the Bible is looking at the patterns that are developed and then repeated in a variety of symbols. What I would like to do is compare five sets of sevens. The seven days of the creation…the seven pieces of furniture in the...

The Vastness of the Universe

I have always loved Astronomy and spent many a night peering through the lens of a telescope. But a familiarity with the constellations, locations of major stars, nebulas and sister galaxies… still does not give you the perspective of the vastness of the universe…or even our small...

Before in the “Mystery of the Trinity”, I showed just a few of the Old Testament inferences of the “Trinity”. Probably the most beautiful and detailed explanations of not just the Trinity but the Deity of Christ .. and every other doctrines of the scriptures…is...

What is this about Hell?

Hell is probably one of the most confused doctrines of in modern Christianity. In the Old Testament Hebrew, Hell (an Old English rendition) was called "Sheol" and in the Greek ,"Hades", meaning the place of departing spirits. It did not at that time have any negative...

Prayer is not about influencing God…..but allowing God to influence us. Far to often we fill the air with noise, convinced that God is impressed by our words. In truth, what God is listening to is our hearts. Prayer is the practice of the presence of God. It is a place...

Question of the Sabbath
|
It is interesting that over 2000 years after God divided history by manifesting Himself in human flesh and changing forever not only how we understand God but how we relate to Him, we are still arguing over “legalities” and interpretation of the scriptures. 2 Colossians 2:16 says,...
