  • 1689: The Scriptures and the 1924 Downgrade

    1689: The Scriptures and the 1924 Downgrade

    Exclusivity is beautiful and not all division is evil. This phrase will not gain much ground in the current society I live in but I believe it. First, I believe it because absolute inclusivity is impossible and incompatible with any degree of knowledge or truth. As soon as a proposition is made, those who dissent…

  • Inerrancy and Infallibility of Scripture?

    Inerrancy and Infallibility of Scripture?

    Ask your questions at Christoa.com, on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, Tumblr, or LinkedIn. A question was asked through the blog about the difference between the inerrancy and infallibility of Scripture. To claim that Scripture is inerrant is to claim that it is without error, absolutely correct in its retelling of events and predictions, in the autographs,…

  • Tobit- Narcissistic Religion

    Tobit- Narcissistic Religion

    Tobit 11:1-18 Tobias returns home with his new wife, Sarah, and his guide, Raphael. Tobit’s sight is finally restored, and the family revels in their many victories. In this chapter, we see the same theological problems we have seen throughout Tobit. Tobit’s sight is not restored directly by God, but by either materialistic or mystic…

  • The Christian and the Outcast

    The Christian and the Outcast

    I was recently working a secular job where there was very little actual care for the customers. Every way in which the business was operated only served one purpose, to get customers to spend money and to illicit customers to continue to spend money. Virtually every practice in this retail chain was ingenue or dishonest.…

  • On The Pope’s Changing The ‘Lord’s Prayer’

    On The Pope’s Changing The ‘Lord’s Prayer’

    Just to do away with any misconceptions at the outset, Pope Francis has not yet officially stated that he desires to pursue changing the words in modern translations of the Bible to read differently. He has only stated in an interview that one statement in modern translations mischaracterizes God. You can read the short report…

  • Age, Evolution and Belief in God

    Age, Evolution and Belief in God

    One of the greatest hangups for people considering the Christian faith is that popular science promotes a certain theory of origins and a certain theory concerning the earth’s age and these theories do not seem to be corroborated by the text of Scripture. In fact, according to some, there doesn’t seem to be a need…

  • Does the Bible Contradict Itself?

    Does the Bible Contradict Itself?

    The Holy Bible is the single authoritative set of documents for the Christian worldview. Without the Bible, there is no solidarity among people who call themselves Christians. Without the Bible, there is no basis for the Christian faith. Coincidently, both Judaism and Islam are also entirely dependent on the Existence of the Bible, particularly the…

    Listening to Preachers: be careful little ears what you hear!

    We all build our kingdoms in houses of brick. We furnish our homes and make sanctuaries for ourselves. Jim built his own home, got married and lived happily for three years there. One night as he and his wife watched television he went to turn the channel and his brand new 4K, suspended flat panel…

  • Smith: Prophet of Relativism

                The bright young man approached the small brick house that he had inherited. “I do not like this building,” the man said, “but neither do I wish to sell it.” Firstly, the young man examined the cornerstone, which did so bear the name “Jesus Christ”. Then, he began to examine each brick that did…
