‘My Body My Choice’? What Does Scripture Actually Teach? In today’s cultural conversations, few phrases carry as much emotional and political weight as “My Body, My Choice.” The slogan has become a rallying cry for bodily autonomy, particularly in discussions about abortion and reproductive rights. But as Christians seeking to align our thinking with Scripture,…
Few questions challenge modern Christians more deeply than reconciling traditional biblical teaching on homosexuality with emerging scientific theories about sexual orientation. If someone’s “born gay,” how can a loving God condemn them for acting on those desires? This question deserves our thoughtful attention rather than simplistic dismissal. As believers committed to both God’s Word and…
THE CHALLENGE OF 1 TIMOTHY 2:4 “[God] desires all people to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth.”—1 Timothy 2:4 For many Christians, this verse presents a significant challenge to Calvinist theology. If God truly desires all people to be saved, how can we reconcile this verse with the Reformed doctrine…
In the quiet moments before His betrayal and crucifixion, Jesus knelt before His disciples and performed an act so countercultural it left them stunned. The Master became the servant, washing the dust-covered feet of those who called him Lord. This powerful scene culminates in Jesus’ command: “If I then, your Lord and Teacher, have washed…
Editor’s Note: This post is part of our series, ‘Satan’s Lies: Common Deceptions in the Church Today’… The story of Ananias and Sapphira in Acts 5 is one that often leaves readers baffled. A husband and wife sell some property, bring part of the proceeds to the apostles, but claim they’re donating the full amount—and…
Ever caught yourself in the middle of prayer, wondering, “Why am I telling God things He already knows?” If God’s truly omniscient—all-knowing—then doesn’t He already understand our needs before we speak them? And if He’s sovereignly working out His perfect plan, can our prayers ever actually change anything? This paradox troubles many believers. Yet from…
The grand narrative of Israel entering the Promised Land is one of Scripture’s most compelling motifs. But what exactly does this ancient story symbolise for Christians today? Does the Promised Land primarily represent heaven—our final destination after death? Or does it typify the Christian life here and now, with its mix of victories and ongoing…
If you’ve spent any time reading the Bible, you’ve encountered passages that speak of God’s love, anger, jealousy, and compassion. Yet in theological discussions, particularly in Reformed circles, you’ll also hear about God’s “impassibility”—the teaching that God cannot be acted upon or affected by anything outside Himself. This raises an obvious question: How can an…
When discussing the nature of Scripture, two terms often arise: inerrancy and infallibility. While they may both sound similar—even equally good—they represent significantly different views of God’s Word. Inerrancy holds Scripture contains no errors in anything it affirms—whether doctrine, history, science, or any other topic. Infallibility, on the other hand, maintains Scripture will not fail…
In the quest to verify the historical accuracy of the Gospels, few sources are as valuable as the writings of a man who had no interest in promoting Christianity. Flavius Josephus, a first-century Jewish historian, provides some of the most compelling external evidence for the historical reliability of the Gospel accounts—all while never intending to…
