Consider Genesis 4:17. “And Cain’s wife became pregnant and bore Enoch; and Cain built a city, and named it after his son, Enoch.” (Amp Bible). This verse has been repeatedly used and abused. Many people use it to question the infallibility of the Bible. In fact, some use it as a reason to not […]

Consider “Time”
I challenge you to “Google” what “time” is. You will find thousands of words, but no information. The reason for this is no one knows what “time” really is. We all live in it and experience it, but it remains a complete mystery. A prominent author recently defined time as “the measure of motion”. It […]
Were Dinosaurs on the Ark?
There has been an opinion that since dinosaurs (reptiles) were land animals, Noah was required by God to bring two of their kind onto the ark. This idea has been popularized by an exhibit in the Ark Encounter amusement and theme park in Williamstown, KY. The concept is based upon Genesis 1: 24 – […]
The Truth about Sin
Some churches have a preoccupation with sin. It often dominates their sermons, lessons, and discussions. Because of this, Christians should gain a full understanding about potential transgressions. Sin is curtly described as falling short of the glory of God. While true, this just doesn’t provide a framework Christians can internalize. Sin has two sides to […]
Real Salvation
Salvation means spending eternity with God. The Bible says the souls of ALL people are eternal, but only Christians will spend eternity with God. Christians know the only requirement for attaining salvation is to “believe”. And they said, “Believe in the Lord Jesus and you will be saved …” Acts 16:31. It sounds really […]
Solving a Real Bible Mystery
There is a Bible mystery that has perplexed many scholars and teachers for years. It is a scène described in most Bibles, but is NOT found in the oldest available manuscripts. That means it was added later. The scene in question can be found in John 8: 1-11. 1 Jesus went to the Mount of […]
Understanding the Great Flood
Last year the movie Noah was released in public theaters. Of course, it was about the Biblical account of the great flood destroying all of mankind and land animals except for those who God had picked to be placed into an ark (a large boat) which God specifically designed and Noah built. Often, when […]
Does the Bible Say a Husband is the Head of the Wife?
Over the course of many years of using inductive logic to explain difficult Biblical concepts, the most frequent concern voiced by wives is their husband’s use of a couple of Bible verses. The men use them in an attempt to take control of the family and be the ultimate authority having the deciding votes on […]
Change Your Prayer Life Forever
Prayer has a variety of meanings to different people. In fact, the word has become a “short-cut” for many. Rather than stating the purpose of prayer, they simply ask individuals to pray about something or just tell God they are praying for someone in a given situation. Some believe prayer is a way to get […]
Made in God’s Image
Even though it is not necessary to understand what “Made in God’s Image” means to become a Christian, it is vital to grasp the concept in order to truly be equipped to explain Christianity in a way people will want to accept Christ’s death and resurrection for themselves. Examine Geneses 1: 26. God said, Let […]
