Your question is somewhat in line with this question here. People choose whether or not they want to be in the Lamb’s Book of Life. It should be noted that people are born dead in trespasses and sins (Ephesians 2:1-3). Dead people cannot do anything to save themselves, especially since...

I turn back the clock for this book review on F. LaGard Smith’sSodom’s Second Coming: What You Need To Know About The Deadly Homosexual Assault. Published in 1993, this book explores various aspects of the homosexual agenda. Smith, a retired law professor, explores these aspects using...

Recently, someone asked me the following question:

Why do some pastors claim Jesus is the way and still say that Muslims (without faith in Christ) are going to heaven? I KNOW that Jesus is the only way. The “pastor” I spoke with claimed that God alone judges, and that I was self-...

Charles Ryrie’s Basic Theology represents by far the longest book I have read. It consists of over six hundred pages spanning fifteen sections and ninety-four chapters. It took me almost two months to read (and this was even at reading thirty minutes a day everyday). Nevertheless, it was a...

Recently someone asked me the following question:

In John 11, Jesus’ disciples fail to understand what Jesus meant by saying Lazarus is “asleep,” and Jesus has to correct Himself. Considering Jesus was all-knowing, why did he say something the disciples would misinterpret? Is there...

Faith in God is much different from delusion. Faith is “the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen” (see Hebrews 11:1-40). True and penitent saving faith is found in Jesus Christ alone for salvation (Matthew 3:8; Acts 4:12, 16:31; Isaiah 43:11; Romans...

Someone recently asked me if the tool known as Sign Chi Do is biblical. This brief article explains what it is.

Sign Chi Do does not have its basis in the Bible. After all, the inventor of it does not give any biblical basis for why she invented the practice. Therefore, one can easily conclude...

This article briefly answers an inquiry on Darwin Fish. The person’s inquiry follows in bold. My response comes after that.

There is a group called A True Church led by Mr. Darwin Fish. Hard as it may seem to believe, that is actually his real name. They hold a bunch of unorthodox and frankly...

Greetings,

New Agers basically reject Jesus Christ as Savior. As a result, the New Agers’ view on Jesus Christ is absolutely heretical. Shirley MacClaine, one of the forerunners of the New Age Movement (a movement that has its antecedents as far back as the prehistoric times with its...

This semi-devo stems from the following question I received:

What does the Apostle Paul mean in 1 Timothy 1:15 when he says “of sinners I am chief” or “of sinners I am the foremost”? 

I believe that Paul was speaking here after his conversion. I have seen it before as...

I admire your seeking help in this situation of yours. It seems you have a desire to maintain fellowship with those who attend the same church as yourself. This desire is most definitely biblical (Hebrews 10:19-39; Acts 2:41-47; 1 John 1:5-10).

The actions you need to take depend on the situation...

In regards to gender change, changing one’s gender is most definitely a sin. While Scripture does not list this action in itself verbatim as a sin, it is most definitely sinful since it basically aligns itself with that of a depraved mind (Romans 1:18-27). Changing one’s gender neither...

In an effort to best understand the phrase “all truth is God’s truth”, one must understand that God reveals Himself (Romans 1:18-20). God Himself is true and cannot lie (Hebrews 6:18; Malachi 3:6; Titus 1:2; Numbers 23:19). His Word is also truth (John 17:17; Psalm 12:6). He is...
