The Veracity of the Prophetic Witness
I’m always amazed at the accuracy of prophecy as recorded in the Bible. I’m currently looking at the prophetic witness leading up to Christmas for our church, a different part of the messianic prediction every day. Be sure to look for the 25 days of Christmas from Alex, that’s A-L-E-X, Southern Baptist Chapel. From 1,500…

Did God Know Adam Would Fall? Why Would He Let That Happen?
Knowledge itself is a pretty interesting topic. Sometimes I wonder if it’s even possible to know anything at all. I’m part of a Facebook group in which people debate issues related to God’s existence, creation ex theos, and Darwinian evolution. In truth, there’s not much debating actually going on–just people posting pictures that don’t actually…

Theology Thursday: Apologetics and Creation Part 1
The first eleven chapters in the Bible are my favorite. As someone who questioned their veracity before I started following Jesus, I understand there are some difficult things in these chapters. When we read these chapters, we read them like 21st century Americans obsessed with particular orders of events and the scientific method—things that the…

The Problem of Pain: Perfect Paradox
God is perfect, at least that’s what you claim. Tell me how a perfect God can create anything imperfect. Yet, according to your holy book, the very prize of God’s creation fails. The most important of God’s works is also the most depraved and the cause of all suffering in the world. People are selfish.…

The Wondrous Position of the Woman: The Unburdened Implications of Genesis 2 In Apologetics
Genesis 1-11 is not a scientific account like we often treat it today. Neither is it an etiology like other Ancient Near East texts. Moses is not trying to tell Israel how the world came to be. He is trying to convey to Israel why God chose them and freed them from slavery. Moses answered…
