By Dix Winston To defend the Bible, you must answer two questions. Is the Bible good history, and secondly, is it true history? Let me explain and illustrate.

By Ken Yates INTRODUCTION If you walk into pretty much any home, you will see works of art. There will be paintings or nicely framed prints on the walls. You might see sculptures on an end table.

Słowo „ewangelia” w Liście do Rzymian

Słowo „ewangelia” jest interesującym, ale źle rozumianym słowem. W książce Boba Wilkina “The Ten Most Misunderstood Words” [„Dziesięć najbardziej niewłaściwie rozumianych słów w Biblii”], Bob wymienia je jako jedno z dziesięciu.
