In the early chapters of the book of Romans, the apostle Paul went about establishing that both Jew and Gentile had sinned. As such, each was guilty in the sight of God. He wrote, “What then? are we better than they? No, in no wise: for we have before proved both Jews and Gentiles, that

Are We Ashamed?

While on the Earth, Jesus asked His apostles a very simple, but important question, “Whom say the people that I am” (Luke 9:18)? In response, the apostles gave the common thoughts of the masses. “They answering said, John the Baptist; but some say, Elias; and others say, that one of the old prophets is risen

As Dear Children

There is little in this world that can bring out the joy in a person’s heart quite like a little child. The Internet is inundated with videos of babies and toddlers doing sweet and funny things. I can remember when my daughter was little. Each day was special. Whether it was watching her play with

Gender And Roles

We live in a time period where some in our society have tried to blur the lines between the genders that God created. Some have even gone so far as to advance the notion that there are more than two genders, and that they can be swapped at any given time. This has led to

Pattern Theology

When some read the title of this article, it is possible that they will instantly be opposed to the study at hand. The idea of “pattern theology” is nothing more than a flippant thing to some people. They seemingly have no use for it, and also seemingly ignore Biblical principles that teach the necessity of
