Building a Biblical Theology
In Scripture, God is one who does miracles. I want to take a moment and talk about those miracles. There are many people who get very mystic when they talk about miracles, but I do not believe that the Bible in any way promotes a mystical belief system. Further, there are people who wish to...

Paul is admonishing the local church at Corinth toward unity through maturity in the faith. He is presently addressing the local church’s idolatry of the spiritual gifts. He does not discredit the spiritual gifts, but has instead stated that there is a better way than merely seeking after the spiritual gifts (12:31). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hIY9JuPpKdY&t=44s As we...

Paul is writing to the local church at Corinth in order to admonish the local church toward unity through maturity in the faith, not only knowledge of Christ but wisdom—which is knowledge in love. He has admonished the local church to edify one another and those outside her proverbial walls rather than be puffed up... Continue Reading →

I hear all sorts of testimonies. I love ministries like I am Second. I love to hear people’s stories. Normally when people try to share Christ or the Gospel, their testimony falls into one of two categories. The first category is personal experience. People will share about their past and how God has changed them... Continue Reading →
As Christians, we really do make a claim that seems to be outstanding. The claim is that our Savior not only died on our behalf, but was also raised from the dead. In all reality, I have to wonder if anyone really has a reason to believe that we are making the correct claim. As... Continue Reading →
As 2015 begins, I think about the culture around us and the need people, who are immersed within that culture, have for the freedom that we have in Jesus Christ. People everywhere cry out for freedom and very few find it. Within Christianity, we know the source of true freedom. His name is Jesus... Continue Reading →
Consider the African witch doctor, practitioners of ancient Native American Medicine, wiccans of both the white and black magic persuasion, tales of witches and stories of warlocks. Consider the vast number of miracle claims prominent on the earth now and in history. The question as to whether or not any of these claims has any... Continue Reading →
