    How to Improve Our English Translations of Scripture

    Inspired means God the Holy Spirit directly “breathed” the words into the heart of a person. The words came from the inner depths of God and were delivered into the heart of the person. A Bible translation can be blessed, and translators can be wise and righteous individuals, but no translators...

    U.S. Military Chaplaincy ends distinction between different sorts of Baptists

    The number of Baptist sub-denominations is over 70. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Baptist_denominations Proliferation of faith and religion codes reminds me of how the number of gender identities jumped from 2 to 72 all of a sudden. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_gender_identities

    https://www.yahoo.com/news/articles/york-times-columnist-tells-liberal-141609864.html Also, an op-ed published last week by Al Jazeera praised the effectiveness of the military actions taken by the U.S. and Israel.

    Trump underestimated his enemy!

    In The Art of War, Sun Tzu advocates for disrupting the enemy's strategy, alliances, and leadership to win. Eliminating leaders is demoralizing and disorienting to the enemy. It frightens them because they see that the leaders were vulnerable and not as invincible as they pretended to be...

    How to Improve Our English Translations of Scripture

    You wish all the many different Bible versions were more similar to each other? Bible translation differences stem from variations in ancient manuscripts, differing translation philosophies (literal vs. cultural vs. thought-for-thought), and the evolving nature of the English language...

    When did Jesus become the Son of God?

    It is a deep mystery, how God could have always been a Father with a Son and a Holy Spirit, that there was never a time when it was just God the Father alone by Himself. Our minds cannot grasp this.

    What is Apollinarianism?

    Theologians and educated pastors care about what Apollonarianism is, for it is a heresy that pertains to Jesus being fully human and fully God. It is not a subject for a philosophy class.

    Trump underestimated his enemy!

    The generals and military advisors have known about the Strait of Hormuz and how to deal with it for decades. This did not catch anyone off guard. It is not easy to deal with, but progress is being made. The Iranian leaders cannot be kept safe and unharmed just so Trump will know who to deal...

    When did Jesus become the Son of God?

    But Jesus was declared to be the Son of God by His resurrection. Romans 12:3,4 concerning his Son, who was descended from David according to the flesh and was declared to be the Son of God in power according to the Spirit of holiness by his resurrection from the dead, Jesus Christ our Lord.

    Trump underestimated his enemy!

    Looks like Trump got the NATO and other nations to wake up and help protect the Strait of Hormuz. “We express our readiness to contribute to appropriate efforts to ensure safe passage through the Strait. We welcome the commitment of nations who are engaging in preparatory planning.”...

    What is Apollinarianism?

    Apollonarianism is not just a made up word. It has historical validity as a term for a heresy that was condemned in 381 AD. It taught that Jesus was only partially human, since He did not have a human mind. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apollinarism

    Alzheimer’s and eternal security

    I think spiritual matters do reside in the mind. There have been ungodly mind control experiments where all of a person’s beliefs have been removed, creating an entirely different personality. I refrain from linking to articles about this, for it is too horrifying. One of the evil techniques is...

    Dispensationalism

    Romans 11:1-2 1. I say then, Hath God cast away his people? God forbid. For I also am an Israelite, of the seed of Abraham, of the tribe of Benjamin. 2. God hath not cast away his people which he foreknew.

    God the Son is unBiblical Tritheism.

    As far as I know, all trinitarians are anti-tritheist. There is not 3 gods, but 3 people in one God. You just bristle at the nomenclature “God the Father, God the Son, God the Holy Ghost”. You prefer “God is the Father, Son of God, and Holy Ghost”. I see your point.

    God the Son is unBiblical Tritheism.

    Why do you contradict yourself? God is a complex triune entity composed of 3 distinct people: Father, Son / Logos, Holy Ghost.

    God the Son is unBiblical Tritheism.

    Luke 1:35 35 The angel answered, “The Holy Spirit will come on you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you. So the holy one to be born will be called the Son of God.

    God the Son is unBiblical Tritheism.

    Isaiah 9:6 For to us a child is born, to us a son is given, and the government will be on his shoulders. And he will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.
