The article is well presented with the exception of the sections that presuppose prior and selective determinism in God's calling of sinners. I disagree with...

Sweet! I was just answering about how Jesus is the prince of peace. I wanted to say that when God created the earth, there was one day that He didn’t say was...
The context here is poetry. Though poetry can have prophecy or wisdom in it, we shouldn't take it as a hard-and-fast rule or limit. These ages were typical...

Can you give me an example, please, JD? I don't see "Menu" in the upper-right corner of the BLB site. But I see Strongs and typed in fornication. But this...
Prayer strengthens our ability to 'stay on task' spiritually while trapped in our carnal bodies, similar to recharging a battery. We have more 'power' to...

Very insightful, Justin! And interesting reading.
People can support all sorts of things, but we must be very cautious whenever scripture is made to bend to some "scientific" theory. It's the same for the...

What is "putting out a fleece" (Judges 6:36-40)
Yes, God does give us more than we can handle. Read 1 Kings 19:1-18. Notice what happened after Elijah awakened (v 6-7). He found baked bread & water. He...

Why would God ever kill an animal? If he killed an animal, how did he do it? Did he simply make the animal stop breathing? When God instituted animal...

Immediately upon belief we are spiritually protected and hidden "in Christ" and therefore "in heaven" now (2 Cor 12:2). We just cannot see this yet. We who...

1 Timothy 4:13
The Bible clearly states that we are to do everything decently and in order, and that we are to be good disciples of God's money. If that means having a...
