The Ontological Argument with a Twist The originator of this argument is Anselm who defined God as, “that which nothing greater can be conceived”.

If the Gospel Trajectory was and is freedom for female leadership in the church. If Paul set the example of this freedom through all the examples of female participation as leaders in his ministry.

Do you want to be faithful like God? This is an important question. People have argued and argued over whether we are saved by faith alone or by a faith that works. So instead of framing the question with the same old words, I thought a different, yet very Biblical approach, might help. In Greek, […]

ublic A Protestant was interviewing an Orthodox. The question was why Orthodoxy is attractive to those joining it. There were some interesting comments upon which I would like to add. 1.

What Did the Thief on the Cross Know? There is a video circulating about how the thief “made it” to heaven despite what he did not do or know: “He never had been in a Bible study, had never been baptized, and didn’t know a thing about church membership”. His overall point is righteous, that […]

A visitor walks into your assembling. He knows nothing about you congregationally, but he learns one fact almost immediately. “Where is it? Where’s the piano? Can you not afford one?” That is an actual conversation I have had. Seeker- Friendly Churches use music (as in concert-worthy instrumental and vocal performances) to evangelize. Despite no instrumental […]

The delusion and confusion of a fluid gender worldview: 1. We can only know someone’s gender, whether they identify as a woman or man, by their declaration. 2. Therefore, can only know if our spouse is a man or woman by their declaration of identity. 3. If our spouse changes his or her identity, and […]

This is new. An atheist suggested as an explanation for Jesus’s tomb being empty is the possibility that people ate the body of Jesus to gain his powers! First, Jews and Romans were not cannibals. Second, she admits Jesus had powers! Third, she admits the tomb was empty! Even in this ridiculous rationalization that is […]
