Hebrews 5 shows the writer talking about the Son of God, when th ere is a sudden pause. The writer says that there is “much to say” about Him, but that it has become difficult because the audience has become “dull of hearing” (Heb. 5:11). The verses following that statement discuss how those the writer is addressing should have been teaching, but…

If we are saved by grace alone, then all men would be saved, for His saving grace for all mankind had appeared to all men by the time Paul wrote to Titus (Tit. 2:11). If grace immediately covers all sin, then there is no reality to sin, for it would be impossible for sin to separate us from God (Isa. 59:2). It…

Have you seen sometimes when a church of Christ uses a lowercase “c” (as in “church of Christ”) instead of an uppercase “C” (as in “Church of Christ”)?  Why do they do that?  Are they just trying to be weird? There may be varied reasons why some congregations do this, so I will not attempt to give every explanation for such usage. …

Every first day of the week, members of the Lord’s church assemble to worship their heavenly Father according to the Scriptures (Acts 20:6-7; 1 Cor 11:18-32; 1 Cor 16:1-2).

When Paul described the fruit of the Spirit working in our lives, the second word he used was…

In school you learned about the three main verb tenses in English: past, present and future.  These tenses describe three very different timeframes.  One could say that a boy “threw” the ball (past tense), or a boy “is throwing” the ball (present tense) or a boy “will throw” the ball (future tense). Those same tenses can be used to describe a Christian’s…

I looked at my newsfeed and saw a shocking headline. “Asteroid danger looms! 170-foot space rock heading for Earth today.” Immediately I wondered, “Why I am just now hearing about this? Shouldn’t we have a little bit more of a heads-up before we are obliterated by space debris? Something isn’t adding up.” Upon opening the article, I breathe a sigh of relief.…

There was a video online that showcased a man doing a harmless prank that doubled as a social experiment. He stood outside a local establishment with a typical mask on and was pretending to check people with a handheld metal detector.
