In a nutshell, from 3:22 verses, the whole Gospel truth:
Rev 3:22 He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.
Gal 3:22 But the Scripture imprisoned everything under sin, so that the promise by faith in Jesus Christ might be given to those who believe.
Rom 3:22 the righteousness of God [...]

Pace High School…jailtime for prayer?
Posted in General Christian on August 20, 2009 | Leave a Comment »
In Pensacola, Florida, two school officials, the principal and the athletic director, face possible jail time for the apparent disregard of a court order that forbids prayer during school functions. Of course, the ACLU, the instigators of the court order on behalf of two unnamed students, deny that it is about prayer. But it really [...]
Advice for the suffering

It’s been a tough year for many people. In addition to a desperate economy, diseases are more serious and scary, droughts are plaguing many places, and then one still has to deal with all the “normal” difficulties of life too.
Christians are not immune to the realities of the world around them, and experience the same [...]

Wow, one gets busy and when you look again you haven’t blogged in a month or so. There is so much I want to write about that has happened, things that I’ve seen and then the writings and debates that is turning Christianity more and more into a an unrecognizable liberal politically correct mess. But [...]
Misunderstanding the Laws of God
Posted in General Christian, Theology on June 28, 2009 | Leave a Comment »
The universe works in a certain way, scientifically speaking. We identify the consistent behavior of the natural order as the laws of nature. Those laws, in general, are irreducible. We are able to explain the observations that has lead us to formulate those laws, and are also pretty sure that those laws determine how objects [...]
Redeeming Science – Vern Poythress
Posted in Apologetics, General Christian, Theology on May 22, 2009 | 2 Comments »
I don’t recommend many books. But for someone who wants to read a solid Biblical treatment of the Christians role in science, as well as a fair (if a little bit short) treatment of the YEC/OEC debate, I highly recommend this book. Dr. Poythress is well-known theologian who teaches New Testament at the WTS, and [...]
God’s Truth
Posted in General Christian on May 13, 2009 | Leave a Comment »
Is it possible to know God’s truth? And what is God’s truth? The reason I ask is that we so often see people claim that this verse or that verse is misinterpreted, and that it means something completely different. But what if both people are respected brothers or sisters in Christ? Which one of them [...]
Day of Prayer

One may argue about the value of the National Day of Prayer, but it does offer us the opportunity to point out what Jesus said about prayer:
Mat 6:5 “And when you pray, you must not be like the hypocrites. For they love to stand and pray in the synagogues and at the street corners, that [...]
Crushed for us

We celebrate Easter this weekend, the occasion on which God’s manifestation in human form was dramatically and necessarily concluded with the death of Jesus. This was foretold long before Jesus even came to earth, yet the purpose was clear….He was to take the punishment for our sin, because God is gracious and loving.
Isa 53:1 Who [...]
What is a Christian marriage?
Posted in General Christian on April 2, 2009 | 1 Comment »
In modern Western society, marriage has become nothing more than a social and cultural construct. It is an institution regulated by the government, to be made and dissolved at the drop of a bureaucrat’s signature. Those who want to attack marriage often use this image of marriage to try and score cheap points.
The divorce rates [...]
