Is There Power in the Water?

Is There Power in the Water?

The question has been asked many times: If we are not under the Old Testament, why bother with studying the Old Testament? I believe both covenants were preserved by the providence of God and handed down to all generations for several reasons—for our admonition (1 Corinthians 10:11) also for our learning (Romans 15:4).

Thief on the Cross

Thief on the Cross

I have pity and feel really sorry for people who try to teach God’s word without knowing what the scriptures say on a subject. The “thief on the cross” is a very good example. Because of the thief many people have been deceived and believe they can be saved like the thief. I’ll admit, at …

(Matthew 7:15) ” Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.” Common sense tells us that if we could eliminate “false” teaching, unity would become a reality.

Should We Ignore Them?

Should We Ignore Them?

I’ve been asked many times. “Why are you so hard on false teachers?” “Why don’t you just ignore them?” “After all, what harm do they do?” “As also in all his epistles, speaking in them of these things; in which are some things hard to be understood, which they that are unlearned and unstable wrest, …

Needle in a Haystack

Needle in a Haystack

My great-grandfather might have said. “Why that’s like looking for a needle in a haystack.” He would have meant—you have given him an impossible task. Two hundred years ago that might have been true, but with today’s technology, radar, and metal detectors we could find that needle. The same is true about the Bible. Years …
