    PETER AND PAUL AND THE RESURRECTION AND SALVATION

    It wouldn’t take the average reader very long to read 29 verses of scripture. Even if we were to allow one minute per verse - the average reader wouldn’t require that much time - that would have us reading the entire account in 29 minutes. How long did the Jerusalem Council meeting last? We...

    Bible reading plans

    “Feeling discouraged because you already failed hour New Year’s resolution ofreading your Bibke every day? It’s okay. Just start back today. Reading a Bible isn’t about completing a goal, it’s about spending time with a loving God. It’s about a relationship, not a resolution.” - Shane Pruitt...

    To the only God our Savior

    “John is as undeviating a witness as any in the New Testament to the fundamental tenet of Judaism, of unitary monotheism (cp. Rom. 3:30; James 2:19). There is the one true and only God (John 5:44; 17:3); everything else is idols (1 John 5:21). In fact nowhere is the Jewishness of John, which has...

    To the only God our Savior

    I’ve been discussing the history of the doctrine if the Trinity in this thread. I’ve taken it near to the Council of Nicaes but plan to stop there. The doctrine wasn’t finalized at Nicaea, and that is why the Council of Constantinople was necessary in 381. As for John, he - like Jesus and all...

    THE FAITH OF CHRIST

    THE FAITH OF CHRIST

    PETER AND PAUL AND THE RESURRECTION AND SALVATION

    I’m sure that you’ve read about the Jerusalem Council meeting in Acts 15, probably numerous times. About how long would you say that it takes you to read Acts 15:1-29?
