GOT HOPE? Christianity Delivers
My Jewish coworker recommended that I listen to a video entitled "Playing God" by Rabbi Lorge. You can access the full video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FhX6D8barAk&t=0s. Rabbi Lorge's views (and other Jews' views that I've since discovered) seem to stand in stark contrast to Christian views on Genesis 3, original sin, God's intentions, our immortality, and whether …

Many Jewish eyes have been opened to the truth about our LORD and Lord via passages such as those in Psalms 110:1, 16:2, and 35:22-24. If your eyes haven't yet been opened, I challenge you to read on. This blog analyzes passages about the LORD Yahweh, the Lord Adonai (or Adoni?), and King David. “The …

In the age of the “enlightenment” of the 17th - 19th centuries, deep atheistic thinkers crawled into the corners of people’s minds with their materialist agendas, claiming physical science had an explanation for all we know in this world. The “rational” supplanted the “traditional” and the “material supplanted the supernatural.” People in the West began …

What’s in a name? When Colton Burpo had a near death experience as a small boy,[1] he encountered a sister he had never met in heaven. She said their mother had miscarried her and she didn’t have a name. When Colton told his parents, they were shocked. They had never mentioned the miscarriage to Colton …
In the Book of Jonah, we learn of a man whom God called to go to the city of Ninevah to preach against wickedness. Jonah resisted and ran away, getting onto a boat with others. Soon, God sent a great storm to the sea, which shook the boat and scared the men. They wondered who …
People often wonder how King Herod suspected the birth of the Messiah when he ordered that all children under two be killed. According to the Sanhedrin, the “two thousand years of Torah” had passed, so the time for Jesus’ arrival was near. “The world will exist six thousand years. Two thousand years of desolation [meaning …
In the Christian Bible, Daniel is listed with the Prophets, yet in the Jewish Tanakh, Daniel is listed in the Writings (Kesuvim), not in the eight books of the Prophets (Neviim). The Jewish Tanakh is divided into three categories: the five books of Moses (Torah): Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, Deuteronomy; the eight books of the …

According to some, the “scholarly consensus” on the dating of Daniel is that the book of Daniel was written in the 2nd century B.C. Such a consensus makes me wonder about whether scholarship is controlled by people who are skeptical of the supernatural inferences in Daniel’s prophecies. Accordingly, I will address the literature on this …
Recall the richest king of the Bible: Solomon. He wrote the book of Proverbs, which showed us his great wisdom. He had amassed a fortune, yet he didn’t obey the Lord. He married women of other religions and eventually came to worship their gods. In Ecclesiastes, we see the outcome of his missteps as he …

God disrupts lives to build heroes. Modern skeptics sometimes question whether Moses really existed. They cite a lack of much archaeological evidence for the Exodus and disputes among scholars on its timing and which Pharaoh was in power. The oldest piece of extra-Biblical evidence we have is the Merenptah Stele, which places Israel in Canaan …
