In the next couple of days I’ll be posting the start to a several month project through Ephesians. And my overarching approach to the letter is this: God reveals Himself to us through Scripture and intimately in the person of Jesus Christ. I can’t think of a better book to start with than Ephesians. In the first [...]
As Christmastime rapidly approaches, we tend to get caught up in the decorations, gifts, food, snow, family, friends and final exams. How often we miss the point of it all. And for the record, we aren’t celebrating because it’s Jesus’ birthday. Christmas is the day, historically accurate or not, we celebrate the impossible. God became [...]
“Why? If God exists, why is there suffering? Why doesn’t He snap his fingers and fix everything in an instant? If we had the power to fix everything, we would. Is He not good? Why does it take the Creator so long if He created the whole universe in six days? Does He lack the [...]
Literally. What exactly are apologetics? Why should we use them? When should we? What’s their purpose? The answers, of course, are to be found in scripture. This series will study the nature of apologetics by examining the questions above, along with others, and referencing a great deal of biblical examples. This topic has become increasing [...]
“The world around you is full of amazing things. . . . These things, or others . . . may lead you to ask a question. A question is the beginning of science. Science is the knowledge obtained by observing the natural world in order to discover facts and to formulate laws and principles that [...]
Alright fine, so it’s actually almost a month after Christmas, and by now the trees have all been tossed on the street or are currently shedding all over the living room, like mine is. But with the season of Christ’s birth came my introduction to a wave of attacks against the Gospels through Jesus’ infancy narratives. [...]
Does anyone here know what point Catholicism has? I sure don’t. That should sound funny considering I was a Catholic for seventeen years. The article is there for a reason: It is a race, not a religious belief. I could continue on how no one actually seems to care about their faith, or how priests [...]
“Let the reader beware.” This is lengthy. 1:9 What has been is what will be, and what has been done is what will be done; and there is nothing new under the sun. 1:10 Is there a thing of which it is said, “See, this is new”? It has been already, in the ages before [...]
Literally. A major endorsement made by Pro-Choice advocates is the absence of a recognizable pattern of neurological functioning implies the being is not alive. And yet, when this argument was used, I found myself wondering by what means we should destroy all comatose or mentally retarded individuals. As certainly their functioning of brain waves is [...]
Over the past couple of months I have read an abundance of books refuting the ideology of naturalism, especially through the inconsistencies behind the theory of evolution. Throughout all of these works, despite topics ranging from Biochemistry to Cosmology to Teleology, they all contain a single common factor: astute mathematical inferences that show how illogically [...]
