I’ve been reading through R. B. Thieme’s Reversionism. (I’ve been reading through Thieme’s booklets for the last couple of months, which are available for free from his ministry’s website, rbthieme.org.) It’s too soon to say whether it is good or not, but I will say the opening paragraph, where he describes the possibility of a […]
I received a question from someone who has read my book, The Ten Most Misunderstood Words in the Bible. He asks, “In the chapter on Heaven (from which I am teaching this Sunday) you sort of said that if we go up in the rapture, then we won’t see the third heaven (p. 77). If […]
For Christ has not entered the holy places made with hands, which are copies of the true, but into heaven itself, now to appear in the presence of God for us; (Hebrews 9:24) Recently I had the opportunity to be in the vicinity of an actual goddess. I was in the city of Kathmandu, Nepal. […]
“I no longer wish to parent this child. He is violent and has severe psychopathic issues. I am returning him.” The flight attendant read the note in disbelief. A seven year old boy had it. His adoptive American mother wrote it. Things didn’t turn out the way she wanted, so she sent little Artyom Savelyev […]
In Matt 6:19-21 the Lord commanded those who believe in Him to lay up treasure in heaven. But he didn’t just give the command. He explained why it makes a lot of sense for us to obey this command. Remember the reason? Moth and rust destroy and thieves break in and steal treasure laid up […]
A Roman Catholic once told me he believed that salvation was by grace, because doing good works is only possible because God makes it possible. God is the ground of our being. So even though works are part of the condition of salvation, salvation is by “grace” because the fact that we exist at all […]
Many well-meaning Christians are not well taught on this supremely important and practical subject. A common phrase heard in Christendom (and sadly even by supposedly evangelical Christians) is “I’m a Christian, but I’m no saint.” The idea is that while we can expect a person to go to church, give money, and keep away from […]
On Sunday, February 27, 2017 I completed my sixth marathon. It was the Cowtown Marathon in Fort Worth. 26.2 miles. I completed my first in 1998. I racewalk. Due to hip and knee issues, I can’t run very far without joint problems. But still it is challenging to go that far in under the time […]
By Phil Congdon In a packed baseball stadium a few days after 9/11, a Christian minister stood to pray. The minister began: “We pray in the name of our God—the God of Christianity, Judaism, and Islam…” Ever since the attack on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon, politicians and celebrities had been presenting Islam […]
By Shawn Lazar Who’s that?” “Black Widow,” I explained to my wife. “What can she do?” “Martial arts.” “And?” “And she’s good with weapons.” “That’s it?” “Yeah, pretty much.” “But she’s fighting hundreds of robots,” my wife noted. “I know.” “So Hulk is super strong, Iron Man has his suit, Thor has all kinds of […]
