“Who is a God like you, pardoning iniquity and passing over transgression for the remnant of His inheritance? He does not retain His anger forever, because He delights in steadfast love” (Micah 7:18).
Truly, we have a different God. Different, certainly, from other gods, who desire nothing but bloodshed for satisfaction and are never satisfied. [...]
“The Church” A question that has come up for me many times in my meditations, readings, discussions, etc., it this: what is the church? Can we see it? Do who know who is in it? What does it consist of? Who is its head? All these sorts of things. So, I would like to take [...]
Well, here we are at our first Munchie Monday! This will be a post where, instead of drawing strictly from the Scriptures and other quotes, I will attempt to offer some of my own thoughts. I would like to look at a particular text today: Galatians 3.

Here is a very interesting quote by David Vandrunen from Westminster Seminary in California. I found it in an article entitled “Iconoclasm, Incarnation, and Eschatology: Toward a Catholic Understanding of the Reformed Doctrine of the ‘Second’ Commandment”. The article is about the Reformed view on Icons and how we refuse to make images of Christ [...]
A friend of mine sent me a link to his friend’s blog. He has a very interesting post on John 1:1.
Here’s a quote:
The construction is specific and purposeful on John’s part. The pre-verbal anarthrous predicate nominative construction is speaking about the nature of the Word. In other words, John 1:1c is not trying [...]
Recently I was engaged in a conversation with a Jehovah’s Witness. He didn’t recognize me as one, even though I probably saw him at least three times a year at our conferences. Anyway, it is very common for Witnesses, and other groups to attack Constantine and the Council of Nicea as the end of the [...]
