Which Bible?
When discussing the authenticity of the word of God, all opinions are encompassed within two prevailing opinions. The first asserts that God has safeguarded his word throughout time, ensuring its preservation until today. This perspective upholds that the Bible is inerrant, embracing the authority of the word of God. Conversely, the alternative viewpoint contends that […]
Is there an easy to understand KJV?
Is there an easier-to-read King James Version? The King James Version is the King James Version, and other versions claiming to be an easy-to-read KJV are not. Should the question not be, is there an easier edition of the KJV/AV, or is the Authorized Version of 1611 the preserved word of God? If yes, you […]
Grammar
Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth. 2 Timothy 2:15 The subject of the above sentence is “Thou”, the singular ‘you’. We know it is singular as it is addressed to “thyself”, not themselves, “workman” not workmen. Grammar has just been […]
Psalms 37:8
Cease from anger, and forsake wrath: fret not thyself in any wise to do evil. Psalms 37:8 James 1:19-20 Wherefore, my beloved brethren, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath: 20For the wrath of man worketh not the righteousness of God. Anger does not help in any situation. Do […]
Amos 3:7Prophecy
What is a biblical prophecy? Surely the Lord GOD will do nothing, but he revealeth his secret unto his servants the prophets. Amos 3:7 Prophecy is God telling us what he has done, is doing, will do. All is contained with in the Scriptures in some form or fashion whether it is future history woven […]
James 1:8
A double minded man is unstable in all his ways. James 1:8 In politics it is called a mugwump: your mug is on one side of the fence and your wump is on the other. It is an undecided person, one who cannot commit fully to walking with Christ. Your life is like a yo-yo, […]
Acts 13:47-48
For so hath the Lord commanded us, saying, I have set thee to be a light of the Gentiles, that thou shouldest be for salvation unto the ends of the earth. 48And when the Gentiles heard this, they were glad, and glorified the word of the Lord: and as many as were ordained to eternal […]
Matthew 10:34-36
Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword. 35For I am come to set a man at variance against his father, and the daughter against her mother, and the daughter in law against her mother in law. 36And a man’s foes shall be […]
Is Hell Literal and Forever?
I am often asked whether hell is literal and is it forever? Isaiah 66:24 And they shall go forth, and look upon the carcases of the men that have transgressed against me: for their worm shall not die, neither shall their fire be quenched; and they shall be an abhorring unto all flesh. The Lord […]
Liberty In Christ
Introduction – Colossians 1:23 – Hebrews 6 & 10 – 2 Peter 2:20-21
Are we spiritually blind?
If the Bible is a spiritual book that needs interpretation then does that mean we are spiritually blind? Who blinds us? 2 Corinthians 4:3-4 But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost: 4In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest […]
Any hint in the Bible why John Mark left Paul and Barnabas went back to Jerusalem?
Now when Paul and his company loosed from Paphos, they came to Perga in Pamphylia: and John departing from them returned to Jerusalem. Acts 13:13 KJV I can only assume as everyone else. I am of the opinion that John Mark was a young man and not quite ready for the rigors of Paul’s ministry. […]
Are Angels Immortal?
And Jesus answering said unto them, The children of this world marry, and are given in marriage: 35But they which shall be accounted worthy to obtain that world, and the resurrection from the dead, neither marry, nor are given in marriage: 36Neither can they die any more: for they are equal unto the angels; and […]
Are we obligated to keep the OT law?
Who also hath made us able ministers of the new testament; not of the letter, but of the spirit: for the letter killeth, but the spirit giveth life. 2 Corinthians 3:6 For sin shall not have dominion over you: for ye are not under the law, but under grace. Romans 6:14 But if ye be […]
Wear Your Religion On Your Sleeve
Verbum Domini Manet In ÆternumVDMIÆ The term, “to wear your religion on your sleeve,” stems from the Reformation. In the late sixteenth century those adhering to the supremacy of the Bible over the traditions of church and men wore the initials VDMIÆ down their right sleeve designating Verbum Domini Manet In Æternum; it translates to […]
