book-of-john

This is one of the most difficult Biblical passages to interpret, and one that can easily be used to propagate false doctrines if not done properly, as has been the case. I will attempt to interpret this passage in the given context to determine the meaning that was understood by the initial hearers and the…

lying-a-sin

Is it a sin to tell a lie? If a woman knocks 5 years of her age when asked how old she is, does she need to repent in sackcloth and ashes? Is it the same as lying to save someone in court or to condemn someone wrongfully? Or is there a type of lying…

rebellion

Rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft (1 Sam 15:23). The Bible correctly says so. Many preachers and leaders however, incorrectly apply this to anyone who dares to disagree with or criticize them. In fact many Christians are afraid to question the teachings of their leaders and prominent ministers for fear of “touching God’s anointed”….

same-sex-marriage

After what I have written in the previous articles, it may come as a surprise that I do not oppose the legalization of gay marriage or same sex marriage. I am not for it either. In fact, if I had to vote whether or not to legalize it, I would vote against it. But you…
