Armageddon: The Iranian Conflict and End Times
Well. I finally saw the word used in association with events currently at play in the Middle East. In her post, Coston claimed that, in the last battle, the nations wouldn’t necessarily fight against Israel but against Christ. I have to say, I have never actually seen such a narrative in the text of Scripture.…

Take Care With Biblical Prophecy
As I work through the Old Testament witness about Jesus’s First Coming for our the 25 Days of Christmas at Alex Southern Baptist Chapel, I’m noticing the same tendency to do too much with the biblical witness. I understand how tempting it is. We want everything to be a direct foretelling about Jesus so we…

A Biblical Consideration of Ordination for Ministry in the Modern Church
Would you recommend some resources about ordination? I remember the day I was ordained. It was a Spring day after having been before a counsel of local pastors for the purpose of examination. I stood before my local church in Durham, North Carolina to be affirmed by the entire congregation. It was a sweet moment.…

On Salvation and Reprobation
From the debates between Paul and the Gnostics through the ancient dialogue between Augustine and Pelagius to the exchanges between Luther and Erasmus or Calvin’s disciples and those of Arminius to the more modern upheaval between the New Calvinists and Free Willists, the doctrine of election has dominated Christian discussion. Election is the doctrine that…

On Men and Women: Considering Mosaic Law
We have now seen manhood and womanhood from Genesis 1-3. The principles we saw in the narrative drive the distinctions we see between men and women in the remainder of Scripture. The most basic truth we have received is that men are the direct picture of God in relationship to His creation. Women are the…

On Men and Women: The Blessing of Genesis 3
After people are created, they live in a luxurious garden (the literal translation of Garden of Eden). It is a paradise, but people sin against God. I am not going into all the details of the text, here, because we have a specific focal point–Biblical manhood and womanhood. There is much to be said about…

Men and Women: The Primary Distinction
In Chapter 1, we established the equality between men and women. Without considering the doctrine of the Imago Dei (Image of God), equality is impossible in the world. While Genesis 1 presented no differences in the roles or places of men and women, Genesis 2 does. In Genesis 1, we read an overview of the…

Men and Women: 1 The Issue
In our modern day, people try to redefine themselves into cultural categories according to their feelings and the nurture of their society. When we don’t learn about our purpose for life, when we are not raised as disciples of Christ, we are left to invent ourselves without purpose. Without purpose, we will always define our…

Daily Devotional: Exodus 15:1-21
Moses and all of Israel sing a new song about what Yahweh has done. There are no gods like Yahweh, who actually acts and does wonders. All other gods are silent as if they do not exist. The fame of Yahweh goes out to the nations because of what He has done in Egypt. Yahweh…
