I once heard a Christian leader venture the idea that NFL football—along with its farm system made up of hundreds of college football teams—comprises America’s biggest pagan religion. As a big sports fan in my younger days, I thought it was an exaggeration. Since then, having matured in Christ (and…
By un-faith I do not mean open rejection of God, but the slow draining of trust that happens while we wait for Jesus’ return—what Israel felt at Sinai when Moses lingered on the mountain and what we today feel while Christ is in heaven at the right hand of the…
“Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils.” (1 Timothy 4:1) Introduction From the earliest days of Christianity, Scripture defines a clear and singular mission for the church (the congregation of believers): the…
Some have questioned my insistence on exact fulfillment of the Bible’s predictive prophecies, as though such precision were a personal quirk or an unnecessary rigidity. It is not. That insistence does not originate with me; it originates with the Bible itself. Throughout Scripture, God presents fulfilled predictive prophecy as a…
“What is truth?” Pontius Pilate asked Jesus that question, probably indicating that he thought truth was unknowable (John 18:38). That same question—but with the conviction that absolute truth can be known—directs this website. It is grounded in the authority of the Bible as the ultimate source of spiritual truth, while…

This dual aspect is foundational to biblical anthropology. Below is a structured explanation, grounded directly in Scripture. 1. Human Beings Are Created as a Unified Physical–Spiritual Whole…

From this perspective, disbelief is often framed as the result of insufficient proof or critical thinking. The Bible, however, presents a markedly different explanation. According to…
Mark 4:11–12 offers a remarkable insight into the nature of Jesus’ ministry: “Unto you it is given to know the mystery of the kingdom of God: but unto them that are without, all these things are done in parables: That seeing they may see, and not perceive; and hearing they…
How Doctrinal Chronology Made Science LoseRespect for the Authority of Scripture The Early Spirit of Inquiry For most of Christian history, biblical chronology was not a closed dogma but a living branch of scholarship. Medieval and early modern thinkers regarded the Bible as a record of real events set in…
The laws that govern the universe are not merely mechanical principles; they are reflections of divine consistency. Physics and faith, though written in different languages, describe the handiwork of the same Author. The symmetry between them is not coincidence but revelation — the visible echo of invisible truth. We, the…
