Breadth of Mind and the Bible -The End Game This title is a bit of a mis-statement. There is no "end" for those who have eternal life. Nor is this a "game." But, there will be a conclusion to sinners being able to inflict sin upon others - and there is a specific role each Christian will... ( added 91 days 14 hours ago.)

Breadth of Mind and the Bible - Spiritually In my first two articles on breadth of mind and the Bible, I deliberately glossed over the spiritual breadth of mind the Christian is called upon to gain. Well, here we are. While I do hope you will take the time to read all four Articles on this... ( added 133 days ago.)

Breadth of Mind and the Bible - A Personal Narrative I have often heard the charge that a Christian is - narrow minded. This has never made any sense to me ... and very little logic is required to refute it. But I suspect this has nothing to do with ... logic. But, let's address this logically...

Breadth of Mind and the Bible - An Illustrative, Philosophical View There are three systems from which human thought springs: Humanism, Naturalism and Theism. It is doubtful anyone is a purist in any one train of thought - so, each holds some degree of a mishmash. When conflicting conclusions are reached on a... ( added 196 days 14 hours ago.)

The Stunning Civil Rights Parallels Between American Slavery and Abortion The war to recognize the civil rights of the preborn human is already in progress.

Mans Nature: Ones Invisible Metaphysical Imprint and the Bible While our bodies are physical and we live in a material environment, some things are beyond the physical. Indeed, the stuff that actually makes our physical body - alive - will probably forever evade the grasp of the materialistic scientist, and... ( added 300 days 22 hours ago.)

The Nature of Jesus Temptations and the Bible For we do not have a high priest who cannot sympathize with our weaknesses, but one who has been tempted in all things as we are, yet without sin (Heb 4:15). We are also told, He does not give help to angels, but He gives help to the seed of... ( added 300 days 22 hours ago.)

The Content of Received Prayer , and the Bible Personal sin must be removed if God is to "hear" our prayers. "Your iniquities have made a separation between you and your God ... so that He does not hear" (Isa 59:2). The only way our sin problem can be resolved - is by the blood of Christ (See...

The Foundation For Received Prayer, And the Bible We pray because we need. We pray when we intuitively know "the need" is beyond human capacity to meet. Prayer is simply an utterance from an individual to "God." It is no more complex than that. But questions necessarily follow. First, is there... ( added 1 year 37 days ago.)

Can the Fertile Egg Be Excluded from the Abortion Argument? Even though a pro life advocate for years, I had never really stopped too long to think about the fertile egg.

The Necessity of Spiritual Independence Human beings are rather complicated. On one hand, we are built to operate socially (in groups), and yet we are unique, individual units. While some things can rightly be done as a group, there are other things that require solo action. For example... ( added 1 year 307 days ago.)

Does God Reward a Christian's Labor? The call for individuals to serve God permeates the entire Bible (See Ex 23:25, Jn 12:26, Col 3:24, etc.). He uses people to promote - and expand - His Kingdom. He repays such service with ... eternal rewards. "Behold, I am coming quickly, and My... ( added 1 year 326 days ago.)

The Common Man and the Bible There is no question each person is unique. We all have different fingerprints, personalities, aptitudes and abilities.

Death and Life and the Bible Death first. Is death just a part of life? Is it simply an impersonal, random event with no hostile intent? All longevity models (evolution) think so. On the other hand, if death is imposed - that changes everything. What a massive understatement.... ( added 3 years 81 days ago.)

Why Agapao Can Not Mean, "The Unconditional, Divine Love of God" ... And why phileo can not mean, "brotherly love." Love. This seems like an important subject area for Christianity. In fact, one could even contend it is a core element of the Christian faith. After all, the first commandment is the... ( added 3 years 97 days ago.)

Work and the Bible During the working years, up to half of a person's waking hours are dedicated to work. When preparation and travel time are figured in, a 50% figure is rapidly approached. Work is a subject of great practical importance. This Article first... ( added 3 years 128 days ago.)

Sex and the Bible Introduction The Bible was completed thousands of years ago. It is silent on some subjects and general on others, thus giving room for different opinions. But when addressing human sexuality, the Bible material is very specific. While there are... ( added 3 years 128 days ago.)
