Why Does God Choose Some and not Others for Salvation? Lessons from Romans 9 Throughout church history, Romans 9 has been one of the most challenging and controversial passages for Christians to grasp and accept. In it, Paul addresses head-on the weighty and sobering question: why does God choose some for salvation, while passing over…
The Mystery of the Trinity The concept of the Trinity is one of the most profound and awe-inspiring teachings in Christianity. It reveals the incredible mystery and complexity of God’s nature. The Trinity is the belief that God exists as three distinct, coequal, co-eternal Persons—the Father, the Son (Jesus Christ), and the Holy Spirit—while still…

Is the Holy Spirit God? Exploring the Biblical Evidence From ancient heretical sects such as the Arians—who denied the full deity of the Holy Spirit—to modern-day denials, the Spirit’s divinity has sadly been a point of controversy throughout church history. Blasphemous ideas portray the Spirit as an impersonal force, a created being, or something less…

Our entire worldview, our priorities, our life purpose—all of these must revolve around Him as the cosmic centre. But how can we know for…

When Adam and Eve sinned, their disobedience unleashed a wave of moral decay that has polluted our world ever since (Genesis 3). Corruption, described as “depraved” in Jeremiah 17:9, robs society of justice, righteousness,…
The Bible’s Clear Teaching Pre-marital sex: How far is too far? The Bible speaks clearly and repeatedly about the importance of reserving sexual intimacy for marriage. In the Bible, sex outside of marriage is condemned as “fornication” (e.g. 1 Corinthians 6:18). God’s ideal pattern established at Creation was for a man and woman to become…
The Problem with Reading Into Silence While the Bible does not explicitly mention or condemn the specific act of masturbation, we must be careful about interpreting its silence as implied approval. Scripture has much to say about the broader context of sexual purity, lust, and honouring God with our bodies—and minds—that should inform our perspectives….
