  • Life, Our Most Treasured Possession

    Life, Our Most Treasured Possession

    Reflecting on John 1:3-5 John doesn’t claim any certain method. He doesn’t give us a timeline of origins. He simply claims that all things came into being through Him, the Word, and apart from Him nothing that exists came into being. Consider, again, the Genesis 1 account. In the beginning God created the heavens and…

    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.

John the Baptizer told the world that life had finally come into the world as has been promised repetitively since Genesis 3. At this moment, John the Apostle…

  • Life is the Light of Men, and DArkness Will Not Overcome Life: Daily Devo, John 1:1-5

    Life is the Light of Men, and DArkness Will Not Overcome Life: Daily Devo, John 1:1-5

    As I reflect on John’s introduction, I find it interesting to see that the light is not Christ Himself in this instance. Life is the light of men. The Word of God, who is God and is with God in the beginning, is the one in whom life is—from the beginning, not merely from the…

  • Christian, is your world too dark? (Matthew 5:13-16)

                Consider, briefly, the purpose of the pen. It is used to record and that is its purpose. Just as the pen was designed with a purpose, so also you and I were designed with a purpose, and we belong to a community that was called to a specific purpose. A pen is at its…
