Whether you are knowledgeable regarding Old Testament wisdom literature or are a big fan of late ‘60s rock music, you are probably familiar with the saying, “There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under the heavens." If the Bible interests you,...

Miracles are always a fascinating topic. The Bible is full of them. Naturalism denies them. Scientists constantly search for a way to explain them. They are a reality but difficult to explain. Christians often say, “God did it,” but skeptics return with, “You can’t...

“Who is in authority here?”
-Kyle Reese, father of John Conner (from The Terminator)
When discussing creation and the Biblical worldview, quite frequently a number of side issues are brought up. These most often are concerned with the age of the earth, evolution, the...

“May God be gracious to us and bless us and make his face shine on us—so that your ways may be known on earth, your salvation among all nations.
May the peoples praise you, God; may all the peoples praise you.

There are certain television commercials that will always be remembered. You probably have your favorite that comes to mind right now. For me, I’ll never forget one that came out right around the Super Bowl way back in 1996. It was an ad for Pepsi and you can find it here....

Isaiah 45 is a passage I have always known to be the prophecy concerning King Cyrus of Persia, who would be the one God would use to deliver the Jews from the Babylonian captivity. What is neat about this passage is how Cyrus is identified by name over 100 years before...

There once was a wise teacher in Israel, a man who became king and was wiser than anyone else in the world at the time (1 Kings 4:29-31). His name was Solomon and, despite his great wisdom, he stupidly pursued the fleeting pleasures of the world rather than the lasting...

King Hezekiah was one of only four kings whom God gave full praise over the course of his reign. As one of only eight who followed the ways of the Lord, he was one of only four who was noted for taking down high places where idols were being worshiped. He even destroyed...

If you’ve ever been in a situation when you weren’t sure that someone’s actions were going to match their words, you’ve probably heard the saying, “The proof is in the pudding." In other words, we know we have the right ingredients to get the job done, but we don’t know...

“Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding.” ~Proverbs 3:5
This is one of the most famous verses out of the book of Proverbs, and I can truly say it is the least obeyed. It’s certainly one I don’t apply as often as I’d like to say....

Last week, I began a wrap-up to a series of questions posed by a man whose beliefs on creation/evolution are anti-biblical. His questions were intended to show just how foolish “young earth creationism” is (when, in reality, the correct term would be Biblical creationist...
