  • Introduction to 1 John
    2022/03/23

    It is something of an anomaly that 1 John with his simple Greek is undoubtedly one of the most difficult books that you will find in the New Testament. It is an extremely difficult book. It is also interesting that first-year Greek students study 1 John because the Greek, generally speaking, is comparatively simple but, it is a hard, hard book. There is a great deal of conflict about what this little 5-chapter Epistle is saying. It is our privilege and our goal is to cover 1 John in its entirety in the section.

    The First Epistle of John is an intensely practical letter addressed to Christian readers. It warns against the dangers of false teaching and exhorts.

    Key theme: the tests of reality in the Christian life

    Key Verse: 1 John 5:13 (others could be 1:3; 2:1; 4:7; 4:12)

  • The Case for Territorial Spirits, part 2
    2022/03/10

    When looking to the Scriptures for insight about the so-called territorial spirits, there is not much other than a few important passages that discuss, and affirm, the reality of demonic spirits associated with territories, especially nations. Much has been written on this much-debated topic, and they frequently refer to Daniel 10 as a chapter that speaks explicitly of territorial spirits. A key passage for their existence is found in Daniel 10 where the spirit princes of Persia and Greece are mentioned specifically. These evil spiritual beings are described as ruling over an area with explicitly defined boundaries. Daniel 10 is crucial for the study of cosmic powers over the peoples of the earth. Does Daniel 10:13 and 20 speak of demons governing their respective nations? Or was Michael referring to human princes who opposed God’s intervention in favor of Israel? Is there any other scriptural evidence to support territorial spirits like Paul’s principalities and powers in Ephesians? Both views will now be examined.

  • Biblical Support for the Trinity Conclusion
    2022/02/17

    The purpose of this episode is to show that while the word or related words to Trinity do not appear in Scripture, this doctrine did not appear out of thin air but is found throughout Scripture. This post will focus on Trinitarian text (passages) that are prevalent throughout the New Testament and provide a basis/foundation for a doctrine of the Trinity. I am not arguing that the word Trinity appears in some obscure form or is found in a Greek word that we no longer know about, but the idea/concept is prevalent in Scripture. The Bible is the fundamental source and controlling framework for a Trinitarian theology.

    The time in my life when I faced male postpartum depression was one of the hardest battles I have faced.

I hope this bite-sized look at these broad topics will be an encouragement to you.
