Why Moses and Elijah in the Transfiguration
I am not sure how many times I have read the end of Matthew 16 and tried to understand the theology behind… Truly, I say to you, there are some standing here who will not taste death until they see the Son of Man coming in his kingdom. (Matthew 16:28) …especially when we know the…

A Look at the Correspondence Theory of Truth
After recent comments on my blog lately I once again was reminded how so many people in this world are actually seeking a reality of their own making, not the real truths that are actually real. This post-modern time we live in lends itself more and more to an absolute void of real objective truth…

Examining Christianity’s Stance on Same-Sex Relationships
Update (Disclaimer) 15 years later in 2025: This is an old post, written almost 15 years ago, but it links to another post which is of higher value to me, Are There Different Degrees of Sin? The Greater Sin of John 19:11 , so I chose to keep this post active. If you are coming…

Throw the Bible in the Trash, Literally

The Principle of Context from Joshua 7:1-26

Concern, Timing, and the Attitude of Nehemiah
Sunday, we started a new eight week look at the book of Nehemiah. A few years ago I completed a class study (about 4 months long) just on the book of Nehemiah, scripture by scripture. Prior to that class I really had no idea who this man was or what he did. After the…

How Ancient Near East Writings Clarify Scripture
Many Ancient Near East writings have similarities to the familiar stories of the Old Testament text; the creation story of Genesis 1-2 with Mesopotamia and Enki, Noah with the Epic of Gilgamesh (text), and the Genesis account of the Tower of Babel in 11:1-9 with “Enmerkar and the Lord of Aratta”. The Sumerian account that…

The Position and Argument for the Inerrancy of the Bible
I had to give a working definition of Inerrancy today so I thought I would post an excerpt of the results here as well. If you are just interested in the conclusions just jump to the bottom, if you want the full text there is a pdf download at the bottom as well (or from…

Do Miracles Still Happen Today?
Yesterday, as part of the 8PE series called the Mystical Elephant, we had a discussion on the mystery of miracles.
