Not long ago, I reported on the new NIV being worked on, and about how it will replace the TNIV, which many considered somewhat controversial because of it’s “political correctness”. Well, it appears that the people over at Conservapedia are going to ensure all political correctness disappears from a new…
I’ve seen a flurry of articles lately, if you’ll pardon the pun, about Gerald Flurry. They usually come in Google alerts as “Gerald Flurry Biography” or simply “Philadelphia Church of God”. They all seem to be the same article, practically if not literally word for word, written by Amy E…
I almost didn’t comment on the MSNBC story “Official in interracial couple flap under fire”. After all, haven’t most of us moved beyond the whole antiquated notion that interracial marriage is a sin? If you think so, then you would be wrong. No, it appears that David Ben-Ariel wrote about…
It is a regular habit in our family to pray for peace and safety during our journey to and from the Feast as well as protection during it. You know what? We should be praying for that continually. Each week is a weekly feast called the Sabbath. We need to…

Some, in their justification of a belief in an eternal hell, point to Jesus’ story of Lazarus and the Rich Man. In a misguided zeal to prove the unprovable, some have gone as far as to claim that the story is not a parable! However, does this particular argument even…
[Note: This was originally published on the old blog last year after the Feast. However, one year hasn’t made it seem stale.] And grieve not the holy Spirit of God, whereby ye are sealed unto the day of redemption. ~ Eph 4:30 You know, there just are some Scriptures that…
I am actually writing this ahead of time, but I want this to be a pointer back to the Feast of Tabernacles 2009 to help me to remember various aspects of it. I hope that this will jog my memory from time to time as I try to answer these…
