- ArticlePersonalMy blood boils when I witness an unchecked wrong going uncorrected and unpunished. When I hear of people being deceived by those who should know better, my anger fills me like a boiling torrent. If I hear of the ignorant willingly becoming both deaf and dumb, I want to stamp my feet and shout at the top of my lungs. As I helplessly watch the innocent suffer without the opportunity to cry out, I want to do something, anything, to stop their needless agony.
- ArticleGeneralSometimes, I find it hard to understand the thought process people must go through to make their illogical choices. It seems there is a willful disconnect between choice and consequence. Driven by a kind of data-free decision-making, they seem to launch themselves over the barriers of evidence into the free fall of blind passion.

- ArticlePersonalWhat’s in a name? In most western cultures, parents name their children after many different reasons. Perhaps to honor a loved one, or someone famous, or simply to give their child their own unique identity. In the times of the Old Testament, Hebrew names carried more than just a phonetic grouping of letters that gave a pleasant sound, it carried a meaning.

The Acts of the Apostles is a valuable history of the early Christian church. Acts was written in Greek, and although the author does not name himself, evidence outside the Scriptures and inferences from the book itself lead to the conclusion that the author was Luke. The gospel of Luke concludes where Acts begins, namely, with Christ’s Ascension into heaven. After an introductory account of the descent of the Holy Spirit on the Apostles at Pentecost, Luke pursues as a central theme the spread of Christianity to the Gentile world under the guiding inspiration of the Holy Spirit.

Of all the end-time themes discussed in the Bible–such as global disasters (Mt 24), the rise of the global super-state, the identity of the Antichrist, the mark of the beast, and the Magog invasion (Ezek 38-39)–“deception and apostasy in the church” is listed more times than any other end-time “sign of the times.”
Are we currently living in the Age of Apostasy? Ron Matsen explores the evidence and causes of apostasy and provides an antidote for apostasy in this timely study.

The beginning of a person’s reconciliation with God is their recognition of God. The argument for and against the existence of God has raged for ages. Yet proving the existence of God is an understanding that comes from an “aggregate of thoughts” knit together with “summary logic.”

What does the Bible have to say about the End Times? Matthew’s Gospel records the warning of Jesus where He said, “Take heed that no one deceives you.” The apostle Paul expands on this by stating; “Now the Spirit expressly says that in latter times some will depart from the faith, giving heed to deceiving spirits and doctrines of demons.”

The attack on the Biblical family unit has never been greater. The pervasive influences of secular philosophy, psychology and sociology, have driven the traditional family unit to the brink of extinction. Like a spiritual tsunami, the influences of modern moral relativism are rapidly eroding the confidence of many Christians in Biblical foundational truths concerning marriage, family, and parenting.

The Bible tells us that “children are a blessing from the Lord.” As such, parents are given the awesome responsibility of raising them in the fear and knowledge of God. The world would like to convince Christian parents to stop influencing their children, with regards to Biblical standards of living. Their motto is to “let the child make up their own mind.” The world wants your children, and it will take them from you whenever you decide to give them up.

There are four basic questions that confront each of us:
- Who am I?
- Where did I come from?
- Why am I here?
- And where am I going when I die?
Your eternal destiny will be determined by your “world view” in addressing these issues. And there are really only two world views: either everything – including you- is the result of some kind of cosmic accident, or this is all the result of a deliberate design by a Designer. This issue could not be more fundamental.

What does it mean to be human? Philosophers, theologians, sociologists and psychologists have attempted to understand the nature of mankind for ages. Their conclusions often contradict each other which lead to confusion rather than clarification. Clearly, Man is a very complicated social being. The Bible tells us that man is “fearfully and wonderfully made.”

Paul’s letters to the Corinthian Church reaches beyond this troubled fellowship of believers in the first century down to the modern church today. He brought to balance the issues associated with spiritual freedom and spiritual unity, discipline and love, spiritual gifts and spiritual living. He addressed the confusion of the bodily resurrection of Jesus and the future resurrection of His followers. These challenging teachings are aimed at the serious student of the Bible.

"For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." - John 3:16
Because of its emphasis on "the Love of God" and Jesus' being the incarnation of that Love, many believe this gospel is the most important for new and old Christians alike to take to heart. Written by the "disciple whom Jesus loved", the book of John is organized around seven miracles, seven discourses and seven "I AM" statements. This study is so deep "an elephant can bathe in it, and yet an infant can wade in it."

Under close examination, the Book of Joshua seems to be a precursor to the book of Revelation: another Yehoshua, as Commander-in-Chief, will dispossess the Planet Earth of its usurpers -- first sending in two witnesses, then with a series of judgments of sevens, finally defeating the kings with signs in the sun and moon while the kings of the earth all hide in caves. What does the name "Joshua" mean?

Matthew presents Jesus Christ as the Jesus as the Meshiach Nagid, the Messiah the King, the Lion of the tribe of Judah. It was written by a Jew, to Jews, about a Jew. This book of the Bible uses more Old Testament quotes than any other. The Gospel of Matthew emphasizes the saying of Jesus, including ten parables not found in any other Gospel. After first establishing the royal genealogy, he then goes on to focus on the fulfillment of the Old Testament prophecies.

Romans is the definitive statement of Christian doctrine - the most comprehensive book in the New Testament. Its impact on history is unequalled. The Book of Romans is the first in a trilogy (Romans, Galatians, Hebrews) on Habakkuk 2:4, "the just shall live by faith." No other book of the New Testament has been as read and examined, discussed and dissected, or is the source of both blessing and confusion than this book. Some scholars suggest that it is the definitive Gospel according to Paul. It is the most comprehensive book in the New Testament.

One of the biggest talking points among Christians on Social Media so far this year has been the possible prophetic link between Revelation 12 and September 23rd, 2017. Some call it "The Great Sign."

One of the last instructions given by Jesus to the Church was, “Go into all the world and preach the gospel.” (Mark 16:15)
The fact is most Christians don’t know how to share their faith effectively. Sadly, many of the people they know in the world today are wandering around, lost and without hope, having never heard the wonderful Message of Reconciliation.
