I am curious what you all think of the following scenario.
When you translate the Greek (be it a manuscript or one of the Koine Greek New Testaments) you come upon various problems. The one that I am going to focus on is the problem with Greek words having multiple meanings. For example...
Oh man! Not new but, back! I will try to stay back this time. My life took a turn for the awesome this summer and I just had to put my computer usage on the back burner. But now that I am in school, without work, I feel like this is a great place to come back to! A little catch up!
My name is...
Hey guys!
Well, I am off to college now. A few weeks ago I sat next to this girl in class and we hit it off. A week later I asked for her number and she gave it to me. We began to hang out, silly stuff really like playing Manhunt and getting lunch or dinner. Last week I stepped up our...
Romans 8:
18 For I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worth comparing with the glory that is to be revealed to us. 19 For the creation waits with eager longing for the revealing of the sons of God. 20 For the creation was subjected to futility, not willingly, but because...
The Book of Proverbs are amazing! And I think deep down, we all wish we could have been Solomon, because he was so smart and so on point with everything. But, alas, we are not gifted with wisdom like he was, but that doesn't stop us from coming up with nifty little phrases every now and then. So...
As the title says, this topic is for the bring together of scripture references that speak of the end time. I am making this topic because I want to know about what is coming next. I hear these terms like "Pre-Mill", "Post-Mill", "Mill", etc., etc. but I have no clue what they are. I also don't...
Freewill. It is the key point of many a person's understanding of both their own salvation and of God. I once thought freewill was the greatest thing in the entire world, and then I finally met God, and I understood that freewill is a really good lie that a lot of Christians believe because it...
I was watching a very short video in which John Piper was speaking about memorizing scripture. It was important, he explained, because the Lord speaks to us through His Word. You cannot have a conversation with Christ without the Bible, but the Bible cannot be with you everywhere, so we need to...
This is such an awesome and moving video. The love of Christ is so awesome, and this is truly a Christian marriage in the real sense of the term.
WARNING: YOU MAY VERY WELL CRY!

Is there a place for "religious liberty" in the life of a Christian? What does the Bible say about it? In the time of the New Testament the Christians were hated where ever they went. They were beaten, stoned, whipped, crucified, hung, burned, and many other like torments. But they took it with...
This is something I have been thinking upon. I have not yet brought it before God, I don't know why, probably some silly notion that I ought to get a head around an idea before I go to God with it, when in truth my head around an idea has nothing to do with when I should approach God, nor should...
We speak about the "Prosperity Gospel" because it is such a prevalent and, well for lack of a better term, depraved new-age theology that has swept our television channels and our bookstores. It's a very unbiblical theology that entangles the lost in this whole "God wants you to have what your...
Our Heavenly Father has been some gracious in His blessing of me. Truly I'd say that I am a changed man, now more than ever before in my walk, a walk that I'd now characterize as a "walk towards Christ" as opposed to now which is a "walk with Christ". I have seen the errors of my way, the sinful...
I know this is going to sound stupid lame but, I need some friends and I need some help with prayers. I had some very close friends, so close that I pretty much never had a need for others. We did lots of stuff together, every day, it was a great time. But it God laid upon my heart that I cut...
He is pretty awesome, huh? Think about this one for a while:
Without really knowing specifically how, or even having to train for very long, a person can pick up a baseball bat and hit a baseball. What does that take? I'm not sure about all of it, but here is what I can reason. It takes our...
Curious, Jesus said in Matthew 5:28, "But I tell you that anyone who looks at a woman lustfully has already committed adultery with her in his heart." This is a true statement. I am curious, though, how does this pertain to dating? The clear implication in Jesus' words is that looking upon a...
Curious, in the gospels, at the end, we see that of ALL the people (the exception really being Mary and Mary) who come in contact with Jesus after He is captured int he garden the Romans are the only ones that show Him any kindness.
His disciples all disappear. His apostles are also not...
So I have decided that I should search the scriptures for myself and, with God's help, come to a conclusion as to what I ought and what I ought not do. I think that this is a better solution then trying to conform to what man tells me the Bible says. I honestly feel that I have been instructed...
Not specifically, mind you, but bear with me for just a moment.
First, I am not saying that they are. This is a question and I am seeking the wisdom of others in this matter. I was thinking while I was mowing that maybe denominations existed even at the time of Paul. Here's why...

When you hear the phrase "The Great Commission" you often think of the red highlighted scripture above. But this is not our commission. That is our mission. Our mission is to make disciples of the entire world. Our commission is the power we are granted through Christ...
