A dear friend of mine recently sent me a link to an article by Simcha Jacobovici: Jesus’ Marriage to Mary the Magdalene Is Fact, Not Fiction and she asked me my opinion of it. Bottom line, Mr. Jacobovici is completely wrong. Later on I have a list of articles that refute it, but it seems like this question comes […]

From our Bible-based study of the Trinity, we have established so far that all three members of the Trinity are God and all three are Persons. Having said that, how do these persons exist? This was one of the early and most important challenges for the early church to figure out because, in part because […]
Last week we started our study of the Trinity and we could see from the Bible passages that God the Father is God, God the Son is God, and God the Holy Spirit is God. All of them in the Bible are described with the attributes of God. This week the lesson looks at what […]
In a recent television interview, Pastor Rick Warren was asked his opinion about the Mormon Church and he graciously replied that he had a problem with their view of the Trinity, that it was not the Biblical view.

In effect he was equating Catholicism with the Mormon church and implying that both are […]
Is He simply a sentimental Reason for the Season? Is he a good prophet who showed us how to live, but who had Judas die in his place? Is he the spirit brother of Satan? Or is He the eternal, Son of God, who died on the cross and rose again for our redemption? Each […]
If a child is balanced on a cliff and about to fall off, it is not loving to allow them to play there because you don’t want to be a disagreeable parent. You don’t have to yell and smack the child to get her to turn away, in love you can gently take her by […]
We’ve seen how it is a fact that many early historians referred to Jesus. So we know he lived in the first century. However, that isn’t enough–what did they think of him? Critics of Christianity say that early on people thought of Jesus simply as a man. In fact Dan Brown goes so far as […]
