The way we face is the way we go. I noticed soon after I began driving, that if I looked at something off to one side, I would tend to veer in that direction. In Genesis 4:14, Cain speaks as if he is being driven away to be hidden from the face of God, but [...]

The origin of the name Easter is probably the morning star; the east star. In Revelation 22:16, Jesus calls himself “…the bright and morning star.” The Greek word for “star” in that verse, is “Aster.” A kindred word, “Stauros,” is the Greek word for cross. Jesus is the promise of a brighter day. Some people [...]

Even to this day, when Moses is read, a veil lies upon the heart. The same veil remains unlifted in the reading of the Old Testament. Those aren’t the words of an atheist or agnostic; they are the words of Paul the Apostle in 2nd Corinthians 3:14-15. Verse 16 says the veil can only be [...]

I firmly believe that God wants to treat us as equals, and that’s why he became a man. I believe he wants to be able to meet with us as friends, just as he did with Adam and Eve. I also believe that we would never be his equals, even if making us his children [...]

In Romans 13:1-7, Paul is trying to prepare Christians for the trouble that he sees building in Rome. He knows that persecution is coming and that Christ’s kingdom cannot be established by physical resistance. He doesn’t want the Christians to give anyone an excuse for persecuting them, so he reminds the believers in Rome of [...]

Most questions that can be asked about the Bible can be answered satisfactorily. That is, if they are asked one at a time. When it is a hundred at a time, then it becomes necessary to write a book to try to get to them all. Problems are best dealt with one at a time, [...]
Mercy For Jesus

Jesus didn’t ask for mercy when he was crucified. He didn’t say much at all. His silence fulfilled the prophecy of Isaiah 53:7, “…As a sheep is silent before its shearers, so he did not open his mouth.” There is a time when speech becomes useless, so he clenched his teeth, and from there on, [...]

What about all those Bible verses heralding the glory of God? In John chapter eleven, when Jesus heard that Lazarus was sick, he said, “This sickness is not unto death, but for the glory of God….” This doesn’t mean that God was seeking glory; he was seeking lost souls. He used the resurrection of Lazarus [...]

God does not do anything for the sake of glory. Very often, the first interpretation of a Bible verse that comes to mind, is the wrong one. That is because words can have multiple meanings. If there’s a wrong way to see something, that’s the way Satan will try to twist it. Look back at [...]
