Exodus 21:22-25 – Is Abortion Supported by the Bible?
PHall | October 9, 2012
There is absolutely no linguistic authorization for translating v.22 to refer to a miscarriage. Remember, there is a difference between an interpretation and a translation. The noun in the NASB referring to the miscarriage and in the KJV translated as fruit is yeled. It is a common word for child or offspring and means, “something born.” It […]
Matthew 5:3-10 – The Beatitudes to Live Like God
PHall | October 9, 2012
Focusing on God’s attributes should not lead to a theoretical, impractical, ivory tower, sitting in the balcony Christianity. As seen in Paul (i.e., Romans, Colossians), theology precedes practical living as the foundation precedes the walls and roof. Today’s Christians want “how to” sermons and books with step by step instructions. “Give me books on finances, […]
Matthew 5:3-10 – The Beatitudes as Attributes of God
PHall | October 8, 2012
Did you ever wonder why the Sermon on the Mount begins with these Beatitudes? Jesus could have said, “Blessed are those who are dead in sin, for they will be forgiven.” “Blessed are those who have no hope, for they will be given life.” “Blessed are those who have been defeated and beaten down, for […]
Poem – A Shaming Grace
PHall | October 7, 2012
A shaming grace, how crude the sound; Compares a wretch like he. He once lived wild, no doubt hellbound; Grace says equal to me? T’was grace said his sin equals mine; “Through grace we’re all perceived.” Though my sin compares so benign; Equal ‘cause he believed? Through God’s sermons, the gospel dares; Call evil sinners come. ‘Tis […]
Slavery and Abortion
PHall | October 6, 2012
Slavery and Abortion in the USA: Both slaves and “fetuses” were/are not considered “persons.” Both slaves and “fetuses” were/are considered property of another: for slaves financial property; for abortion it’s the woman’s “body.” Both were/are sanctioned by law. Both used/use science to rationalize positions: for slavery blacks were an inferior race mentally; for abortion a […]
Ecclesiastes – A Time to Listen to Others; and a Time to Listen to Yourself
PHall | October 4, 2012
“There is a time to listen to others, and a time to listen to yourself.” Not quite from Ecclesiastes, but I think the Ecclesiastical Koholeth would approve. Driving down the road I saw a black motorcycle with a brown seat…not a common combination. It looked awesome! Years ago I had a chance to buy a […]
Acts 2 – Tongue Speaking: How, Why, and What Is Happening Here
PHall | October 3, 2012
The tongue speaking in Acts 2: (1) Gains attention (2:5-7); (2) Amazes people (2:7); (3) Equates all people (2:6-11; 2:17-8); (4) Brings glory to God (2:11,19); (5) Fulfills prophecy (Acts 2:16); and (6) Leads to salvation (2:21,38). That is the purpose of plain, non-miraculous, Bible preaching today: (1) To preach we must gain people’s attention […]
1 Traditionalonians 1:1-15
PHall | October 2, 2012
(1) To the church of the Traditionalonians, I, Fair. E. See, the apostle of ancient enough ways write, (2) As I have said before I now say again, if anyone teaches contrary to what you already think, let him be accursed. (3) Tradition must supersede truth. (4) What you have always done, is more important […]
