Share this:   My God, My God, why have your forsaken Me? Mark 15:34,  “(34)  And at three Jesus cried out with a loud voice, “Eloi, Eloi, lemá sabachtháni?“ which is translated, “My God, My God, why have You forsaken Me?”  This passage has come under scrutiny in recent years, and scrutiny is sometimes good – so long as it is due to valid reasons within a given text.  If we cannot allow scripture to be questioned, then that becomes a statement that our beliefs need protecting because we are afraid that they cannot stand up under scrutiny.  I have […]

What does it mean to believe?

        Believe…what does it mean to believe? John 3:16-17, “(16) For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.

Do James and Paul disagree?

Posted on by

This is a topic which has become near and dear to my heart, first as a seeker and lover of the truths of the scriptures and secondly as a pastor. I have met MANY believers who have nearly been shipwrecked in their faith or have fallen into serious error due to misunderstanding what Paul and James were actually saying. Some of this is due to “little-to-no” actual studying of the passages in question. Other times it is due to bringing to a study, preconceived ideas which blind us to what is actually being taught. Taken together with these two problems […]
