The Resurrection of Jesus Christ

The Resurrection of Jesus Christ

The resurrection of Jesus Christ is one of those indispensable doctrines for anyone claiming to follow him. Paul made this plain in his first letter to the Corinthians. He had seen the risen Christ, and he stressed that without the resurrection the Christian faith and the Christian gospel is empty and powerless. Without it we are dead in our sins, and without it we are not outworking the will of God as we like to think, but just playing at being good people before our lives end and we are extinguished forever.

Considering Jesus

Considering Jesus

The evidence to satisfy anyone with a genuine will to know God through Jesus Christ is available. At least, there's enough to see incredible value in considering him very seriously indeed. Why turn up your nose at the prospect of eternal life and a relationship with the creator of all things? What do you have to lose? The story of Jesus' life is enough for the open heart and mind, and many millions - perhaps billions - have stepped over that line throughout history because of it.

The Sub-Quantum God

One of those little corners where materialists insist they've chased away the notion of God - at least, the Biblical God - is quantum physics. Oddly, some secular scientists, though not all by any means, having dispensed with God are replacing him with their own faith or metaphysical reasoning, so that we're really no better off in terms of seeing the universe in a purely secular way.

Jesus and The Holy Spirit in Paul’s Letter to the Philippians

Jesus and The Holy Spirit in Paul’s Letter to the Philippians

The obsession in some circles with God's Holy Spirit is not at all a reflection of Biblical Scripture. Yes, the Spirit is one of the three members of the Trinity, but today's imbalance among those who consider themselves to be at a higher spiritual vantage point tends towards cultism and not true, first century Christianity.

Believing The Bible

Believing The Bible

People who regard themselves as Christians yet pay little or no attention to the Bible are getting their direction in life from somewhere else. It's coming from their church's doctrine and tradition, and from priests; It's coming from what their pastor tells them in his own "inspired" sermons, or from what other Christians tell them, or worst of all, it's coming from their own idea of what's right or wrong.
