I have been watching and listening for quite some time now and I can see that it is Christ Jesus that seems to be possibly the most offensive person in history. This one man claims that he is the only way into Heaven and the only way to get to God the Father. It is his contention that he is the truth, the life, and none shall come to the Father but by him. This indeed is offensive to those that

Tonight I caught myself doing something that I did not realize I was doing, but as I reflected on it I came to the understanding that I had actually been doing it for some time. I was looking up into the night sky, and I know that this act is no extraordinary thing in and of itself. However, I came to realize that I actually study the sky day or night and it seems to be more out of a sub

As Christians, we understand that it is not membership, or church attendance that saves you. However, it is important to attend a Bible believing church. Some have decided that they do not need to go to a church because it is not commanded and it is not what saves you anyway. I must admit that I used the Bible to justify not going to church and while I am not condemned for not going, I did miss

Some may have guessed as much by reading one of my previous articles, “Sixty Seven Million Year Old Dinosaur has Soft Tissue Preserved?” Even though I never came right out and said that, I believe that the Earth is about 6 to 8 thousand years old, although I lean closer to six; some were able to pick up on what I believe.

Governor Mike Huckabee of Arkansas has found a way to move ahead in the polls, which is sure to bring some controversy. The issue of God is one that draws immediate scrutiny form an ever-growing secular America, but in the primaries, it is an issue, which will move the people to get behind a candidate. Governor Huckabee has surged in the polls recently and it can only be attributed to God.

Whenever I bring God up in a conversation, many people will tell me that they do believe in God. I get the impression that they think that if they believe then that is enough. However, is that the lesson we are taught in the Scriptures, that all that we must do is believe in God? I am convinced that it is not enough to believe in God or that there is a God, but instead we are to believe and trust

Reuter News service is reporting that a prehistoric dinosaur has been unearthed in North Dakota. The dinosaur is known as a Hadrosaur, is fossilized, and has remained intact. It is reported that this particular dinosaur lived on the earth sixty seven million years ago. This of course, begs the question, are we supposed to believe that soft tissue can be preserved for as long as sixty

There was a time in my life where I did not believe that God existed. I had heard the Gospel, but I did not see it as truth, instead I treated it as a ridiculous fable concocted by man in order to enslave those that were brought under its power. I had heard the stories in the Bible, I found them to be flights of fancy, just legends, and fairy tales to entertain those that would hear them. It was

There have been many examples of artist creating works of what they considered to be art that actually demean and in many cases blasphemes God. Of course, it is their attempt to push the envelope and create a greater shock value in order to get recognition for their work. Not too long ago there was an artist who placed a cross in a bottle of urine and it was considered art. Of course, even if I

Many people have their own belief as to what Hell is. These beliefs can be influenced by teachings, movies, or even one’s own interpretation of what the Bible has to say about the subject. However, what if we do not really understand what Hell is all about and our misinterpretation of Hell influences whether we believe in God, or we are even contrary to him if in fact we do believe

The question of how God will judge the people of the earth is littered with more differing opinions than there are religions in the world. The prevalent belief is that God will judge us according to how we lived our lives. It is believed that God will take into account the good things we have done in this life, as long as they outweigh the evil things we have done. Now, I am not going to deceive

Pastor John Hagee, seen on the “Trinity Broadcasting Network,” is under intense fire from fellow Christians for assertions made in his new book entitled, “In Defense of Israel.” The “Fire and Brimstone” preacher claims that his new discoveries will shake the very foundations of Christian theology as understood today. Well, it certainly has shaken some foundations, but not the ones he intended,

A group of Rabbis have sent a letter to President Bush warning of the wrath of God upon the United States. It is believed by the Rabbis that the United States will suffer disasters sent from God if the “Annapolis Parley” is not canceled.

Many men have come forward and claimed that the Bible speaks of many instances of UFOs. However, it does not specifically use the term “Unidentified Flying Object,” but there are some interesting occurrences which when used in conjunction with the UFO phenomenon, does seem to fit together very well. Now, some of these occurrences do not appear to be extra-terrestrial events at all and we must

I find the mention of giants in the Bible very interesting. Now, as for me, I believe what the Bible has to say and I believe that certain books in it are written as history and not necessarily for doctrine. However, there are many people which make a big deal out of the issue of giants and try to come up with some extra biblical theories surrounding the events prior to the flood.

Many of us are very interested in the stories and places of the Bible. Even those that do not believe in God perk their ears up when there is a new discovery. Many have attempted to locate the places in the Bible through archeology. It seems that archeology is constantly supporting the stories and events in the Bible, yet very few people take notice, or the research is dismissed out if hand.Ron

* IntroductionI have heard some people make mention of the fact that Jesus seems to have two genealogies, which are mentioned in two of the books of the Gospels. These individuals declare that the genealogies are different; therefore, there must be a contradiction. As a Christian I really have no issue with this, however, some will grab on to anything which appears to be a contradiction in order

God is the oldest notion, but one that never dies. For the Christian, God was, God is, and God will always be. However, we find that the ideal of Atheism is growing with leaps and bounds. These people not only do not believe in the God of the Bible, but they believe in no gods at all. It seems to me that for these people life is pretty simple because they do not have to worry about their actions,

This is probably one of the most hotly debated subjects in Christianity. It is sad to have to keep writing on the subject of the law. However, as long as Christian leaders continue to teach their followers that they must follow the law, then there must be those that will set the record straight and strengthen the faith of the elect. As always we must go to the Scriptures to determine the truth,

There are a great many people in the world which categorically claim that there is no God. Often these are the ones that will ridicule people of faith. Their arguments are pretty much the same. These questions include such things as, if there is a God then why do bad things happen to good people? If God made people the way they are, then why would he send them to Hell for doing what he already

I hold the belief that something will happen and the name of the messiah will be discovered. I also believe that when it is revealed, it will be incontrovertible. Although, many will try to deny it and they will even use deceit to try and convince others that it is not true. Nevertheless, those that are chosen will ultimately believe and there are none that can change that, no matter how hard

Christians have heard this for quite some time and it seems that this term has been restated throughout the generations. Of course, we know it is true, but we are still left with the question as to when this end will come. For the unbeliever it seems like a warning that has not happened and since it has not, as many have said, then it must not be true. The simple fact of the matter is that the

I have spent much time contemplating the question of why I believe what God says, and even more to the point why I believe that there is a God at all. It was not easy and it did not come to me in a flash, but instead it was over a period of time, that I began to see more clearly that which was hidden from me. I will attempt to explain why I believe in God and why I believe what he says. Although,

With the passage of Senate Bill 777 in California, parents are going to be faced with a decision as to whether they want their children to be taught in the public school system anymore.

This is one of those questions which plague many of our brothers and sisters in their everyday Christian life. There are those that actually believe that if you suffer hardship then there must be something wrong in your Christian walk. That in some way you have un-confessed sin and that the only way to turn things around is to go to God with your sin and beg forgiveness.However I am here to set

It seems that in life bad things happen to good people and those people that appear to be wicked often seem to prosper. It hardly seems fair and is quite honestly one reason why some people will not believe in God. It is human nature to try and understand everything we encounter. We are inquisitive by nature and we like our answers rolled up into a neat little package that we can understand.

We are warned in the Bible to abstain from lustful practices. It is said that lust is the gateway to sin. Lust does not only mean that sexual desire, but it means to covet. To want something which is not proper is another form of lust. This applies to many things such as, power and money. It is this lust which causes us to concentrate only on ourselves and dismiss the needs of other people and

There are many frustrations that come along when we embark on our Christian journey. It seems that at every turn we find ourselves doubting whether we are doing what is right. We worry about the things we do and we are fearful that we might do something that is not good, even if it is out of ignorance. We hold ourselves to a standard which it is apparent no man could live up to, because if that

Many Christians have a difficult time deciding whether they should celebrate certain holidays. This is due to the fact that many of these holidays have their origins in Paganism. It is easy to see why this would be a problem to someone that wants to only worship the one true God. However, there is one holiday in particular which seems to be the most troublesome for Christians and that is

Throughout my Christian walk I have heard this question come up time and time again. It is unfortunate that tithing is still being taught as if it were a requirement. The issue of tithing is not a complex one and can be answered by simply reading the Scriptures. That is the great thing about the Bible, anything that we need to know can be found within its pages.There are some men which will be

This is a question which has vexed man for an eternity. Although, some men have found the answer, to some Christians it is still a point of contention. They believe that the will of God is to do all of the commandments which he gave to the Hebrews. They believe that if a Christian performs good deeds to a reasonably decent standard they will be given access to Heaven. This is a slightly skewed

There are many Christians, and for that matter churches which seem to have a problem with the music used in the worship of our Lord and Savior. These Christians feel that the old hymns are the only true music worthy of God. How can you disagree with this assertion when you realize that the Christian Rock, and other genres of music are offshoots of the secular music scene?It seems all people have

There are many events in the Old Testament which are what is known as foreshadowing events. They are events which take place which at the time make no real sense, but they are an indication of what is to come. In the book of John, Jesus is explaining such an event. However, even as he had explained it to Nicodemus, it was not to be fully understood until the actual event came to pass. This is the

With the advances in computer technology we find that we can benefit in our Christian studies as well. Throughout the centuries men have had to spend much of their lives going through Scripture to study the word of God. We now find that even the layman has the ability to study God’s word with the development of special Bible based software. The advantage of this software is that now you can read,

Many people who choose not to believe in God like to attack Christians with the following statement, “You are just using God as a crutch.” This is supposed to invoke some sort of feeling of insecurity, or weakness in the heart of the Christian. It is the unbelievers attempt to say that believing in God is a sign of weakness. For some reason they equate weakness with dependence on God. Depending

It is clear that many people which read the Bible soon become mired in the many stories and rules, which makeup the Scriptures. At times it can become cumbersome and very difficult to understand. It can also seem as though there are contradictions running throughout the Scriptures. However, these contradictions are due in large part to a misunderstanding of what is happening. There are also many

This is one of those questions people often ask as a rebuke to the existence of God. They believe that, if there was an omnipotent creator and he wants us to know him, then it would be simpler and more efficient if he made his presence obvious. However, what would really happen if the creator of all things suddenly poked his head into our atmosphere and said, “Hello, here I am?”It would be utter

It is taught in many churches that you must be a member of the church to get into Heaven. It does not matter which Christian denomination that you belong to because it is taught across the board. Membership consists of being on the Church registry and of course, tithing. But is this really a correct doctrine, or is it another deception by those that would only use you, in order to receive

There are many prophecies in the Old Testament which foretell the coming of Jesus as Messiah. However, at the time that the prophecy was written, it would not be fully understood until it came to pass. That is why men today, who believe, can read the ancient prophecies, and after knowing of Jesus, they understand them. The same can be said of the parables which Jesus himself told to the people

I recently saw a program on MSNBC which aired on September 13, 2007. It was about a Pentecostal Preacher that changed the doctrine he was teaching. He was claiming that there was no such place as Hell. It got me to thinking; I have always understood Hell to be a real place. This is where unbelievers are burned alive for eternity.In my flesh I would want to agree with that assumption, but my

God created all things and without him was nothing made. This creation includes Satan himself. It is often wondered why God would create evil. The thought is that God knows all things that will happen, so why bother creating something he knows will become corrupt anyway. It was not God that created evil, but he created beings with free will. Some like to argue that Angels do not have free will,

This is a sad question which Christians ask, because it insinuates a lack of faith on their part. It is that they lack knowledge which causes them to fear and those which teach it to cause undo doubt to rise up in their people’s hearts. Those that are truly following Jesus do not need to fear, “Because perfect love cast out all fear.” It was not us that had perfect love, but God that had perfect

It is important that we remember the heinous events of 911. It is not even the matter of remembering, but instead it is a grand visage ingrained in our minds of the most treacherous attack in the history of this country. A murder was carried out on such a scale, so as to torture our thoughts each and every day of our existence. Our minds frighten us and make us to believe that this shall happen

Whether Christians sin, or not is one of those timeless questions. Many Christians have a difficult time dealing with the issue of sin. When they sin, they will often lose faith and start to question their own salvation. The biggest problem that Christians face today is those that claim they do not sin and then are found to be liars. Then what do they do, but give voice to those that do not

There is a doctrine in the world which tells believers that baptism is a requirement to be saved. It is important that we validate any claim that requires us to do anything to earn our Salvation. Remember, if you have to do anything to earn your Salvation, then it is no longer a gift of God, but a payment for the work you have done. That is not how God setup his plan of Salvation. He set it up as

We, as Christians have been taught that the sin of Sodom and Gomorrah was homosexuality. I believe that now it is time to delve into the Scriptures and see what they really have to say about the subject. It does not seem right to believe that any one particular sin was the reason why God destroyed those twin cities, and all of the other cities of the plains. I want to be clear, that Scripture

What exactly is the Apostle Paul speaking of when he said that he prayed three times for the Lord to remove the thorn in his side? Many people have interpreted this as an actual physical ailment, or condition which afflicted Paul. I do not believe that was the case at all, and we will look at the scriptures to find out exactly what was going on.In 2nd Corinthians Paul is saying that he was given

Why is it that people have such a problem with the forgiveness of sins? That is the basis of the Christian and Jewish Religions. The whole journey involves man sinning, and God working to forgive those sins. Through the death of Christ we received the forgiveness of sins. In the resurrection of Christ we were promised eternal life to all of those that believe. The trouble with us is that we tend

Many Christians today do not truly understand what it means to live by faith. It is also true that some do not even think that faith alone is the key to Salvation. It is taught by many churches that in order to be saved, one must have faith plus an added ingredient. The individuals affected by these teachers soon find that they are frustrated simply because they are unable to perform to the level

Many of us today believe that we have a very firm understanding of prophecy, but is that really possible. We spend our time searching through the scriptures trying to put together bits and pieces of information, which seems to paint a pretty vivid picture of what is to come. Nevertheless, what makes us believe that we are so much smarter than those that have come before us?Throughout history, men

The question as to the reality of Angels is a not a new phenomenon. Throughout the ages, man has written about their interactions with God's messengers, although it is more prevalent among Jews, Christians, and Muslims. They all believe that Angels exists and are constantly interacting with man.Angels are not the winged babies and women that we see in many of the renaissance paintings. As a

You do not really hear anybody speak of the issue of teleportation in the Bible. However, the Bible is full of examples of this phenomenon. Most people just kind of gloss over it, possibly, because it seems to be coming too close to the other supernatural episodes, which are credited to the people that believe in aliens from other planets. However, it is important to understand that the Bible is

Many people wonder just what Jesus meant when he said to Peter who’s original name after the flesh is Simon Barjona, “Upon this rock I will build my church.” It has been believed by the Catholic Church, that Jesus was saying that Peter is the rock. They further believe that Peter went to Rome and became the first Pope. It is my belief that they are mistaken in their interpretation as to exactly

It was with great exuberance that I started writing these articles while working through the Bible verse by verse, but I find that this is not what I am led to do. I enjoy going through the Word of God, but it does not feel well in my spirit to do a verse by verse. I feel as though I might be better suited and thereby do better work for God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit if I were to take a more

Welcome back, I hope you are enjoying yourself as much as I am. In the previous articles, we covered all of the days of creation and the seventh day in which God rested. Now, in this article we will be covering creation again. What, you did not know that there were two creation stories in the Bible. Well there is but it is not as some would lead you to believe. There is a theory that there were

Alright, we have now covered the first six days of creation in which the birds, the sea creatures, the land animals, and man were created. This included all of the trees and plants that cover the earth as well. Even though we know that woman was created by God removing a rib from Adam. We also come to the understanding that when God created man and woman he created them both in his own image, not

In the last article, we learned that God had created all of the animals, the beast, and the cattle. We also learned that the cattle and beast are different types of animals. Cattle are for the most part, used for food and milk, whereas beasts are large, ferocious, foreboding creatures. Even though beasts do include such animals as oxen, and horses, it is because of their size and they are not

The term, "Science versus Religion," assumes that science and religion are at odds with each other. This simply is not the case and there are countless instances where science has proven Biblical events. A prevalent problem with scientists focuses all of their resources to prove that the Bible is wrong. Many scientists are biased when it comes to events described in the Biblical text.Evolution is

In the last article, we discovered that living creatures had begun to be created. These forms of life included all of the creatures in the seas and all of the birds of the air. We also discovered that the first blessing had been given by GOD. That blessing was the ability to multiply. We discovered that GOD did not create every species that we have today, but instead he created their kinds. It is

In my last article entitled, “In the Beginning – Genesis 1: 14 – 19” We learned that GOD had created the stars, planets, the moon, and our sun. In this latest installment of our trek through GOD’s word, we find that GOD has started moving on to the living things upon the world. This is the first instance of life on our planet. Here we will discover in exactly what order GOD created life. So, let’

We last left off at Genesis chapter 1 verse 13, and if you have not read that article yet, then you might want to do so before reading this on. We had discovered in the previous article, “Back to the Beginning – Genesis 1: 9-13,” that the earth was a much different place than what we see today.

In our latest installment, we will learn that the earth was indeed a much different place than what we see today. I believe that one of our problems with believing the Bible is that we do not recognize that the earth was not always, as it is today. I think that if we come to an understanding of how the earth once was it might serve to help us believe what has been written in the Bible. To some

Here we are with another installation of our journey through the Bible. It is my sincere hope that you will continue along with me, and together we can learn just exactly what the word of GOD is trying to tell us. I must say that I am going to take the Bible at face value and I will not try to decipher anything that is unclear. I believe we must take the Bible at face value and understand that we

Sometimes we find that it is necessary to go back the beginning. This is what I have decided to do in this article. In the articles to follow, I will work through the Bible a chapter at a time. While in the process of doing this, we will take notes on such things as, the character of GOD, what GOD did, and what GOD says he will do. I believe it is also important to take note of the different

I must say that this is a question has fascinated me for some time. I have heard that Jesus was GOD that came to the world in the flesh. I have also heard that Jesus and God are two different entities, but they share the same will and therefore are to be considered as one. Lastly, I have heard that the Holy Spirit, Jesus, GOD are three in one. The premise is that all three are likened to the

This is without a doubt the most controversial subject that can addressed, but it is important that we do so. There are many Christians today which seem to believe that they know the answer to the question of who will be saved and who will not. I for one am not so sure that the answer is so clear. I believe that some may be surprised at the conclusion of this article and then there are those that

I am amazed as I traverse the many Christian websites and listen to the television evangelist just how little they seem to understand about the laws given by GOD. The laws were given for a specific reason. The laws were not meant to save us, but to teach us. In this article I will attempt to explain just what the laws were for and just how they apply to us today.I have noticed that evangelist

I was thinking about my favorite bible verse today "For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God.” Ephesians 2:8 and it struck me. It seems so simple to think that there is nothing any individual can do to earn their salvation. Salvation truly is a gift of God.It seems to me that many Christians, me included, feel as though they must do something. In
